Good morning, Bitcoiners Thought you could sneak that devious little price pump past me? Well you didn't! Nothing gets by me! Now how about you put that price back down where it belongs, Hmm?

... I think the general idea of game shows is convincing people to do something stupid so we can laugh at them.
B...bu...but Billyjoe, we already have Bitcointalk.

Hilarity intensifies--this guy Adam Draper, who allegedly accidentally $50k, is the son of Bitcoin-famous Tim Draper. This is just Roll Eyes
Wow, they do not call you bullet for nothing Sarcasm? Because I don't know the bloodlines of every Bitcoin scammer? Just sorta found it amusing that the scion of such Bitcoin nobility could be so financially clueless is all What's his favorite color tho?

NotLambchop, WTF are you doing with your life? You average ~20 posts per day on bitcointalk over nearly a year's time. Enjoying the fruits of my labor

... You know , people pay though the nose for that "protection" in a form called interest rates. Plus you assume that everyone has a credit card, which is hardly the case.
You, for one, clearly do not have a credit card. If you did, you'd know that CCs don't charge interest unless you fail to pay on time.

... Apparently not, because he tried (did you read the story?). So where is the fabulous consumer protection? Oh, right, there was no merchant paying for it. So, though luck!
Lol, you've got to be kidding me. I didn't read past "I run an accelerator for Bitcoin startups" (eyeraping stylesheet, fuuuuk) to know the whole thing's a good story, bro. A Bitcoin entrepreneur (yes, a euphemism. yes, safe to assume I'm laughing my ass off as I'm typing) ... wait for it... blaming banks. Imagine? Andre#, if you're trying to kill me by making me die from laughter, it ain't gonna work. I read Bitcointalk, my tolerance is sky-high.

...This is a good thing. Our jobs as the decentral bankers is to eat volatility and for now we've eaten it.
Bitcoin's only selling point was its volatility--a socially acceptable & borderline legal form of gambling. Thanks for ruining my Bitcoin

never again, so wake up guys dont hope to much with bitcoin.. so sad every week i see the price drop
Zoom out. Exactly. My impression for the gazillion of the topics we have now in the speculation section, is that the authors of threads have the perspective of 1-2 days maximum, when propheting the end of Bitcoin or begin of new bull era (choose whichever camp you want). Rome wasn't built in a day guys/gals. Hi, is this zoomed out enough? Am I doing it right?

... No, there will be 44k left after this one.
I believe the Australian govt stole some as well, and plan to auction them. The lower they sell for, the better. Oh, you mean that MDMA idiot who got popped in Transylvania Tasmania? Bitcoiners are the most inept criminals. Not for the lack of tryin' tho

What I meant is that "bitcoin insurance" can probably only be what circle and coinbase are offering, basically telling people that "it's all insured" but if your computer/account gets hacked you are screwed and they don't give you a penny. Considering bitcoin is irreversible and all, good luck with actual consumer protection.
If I let my computer get hacked, and the thieves empty my fiat bank account, I'm screwed, too. No difference. One of my neighbours had her bank card stolen after she went to an ATM. The thieves had seen her typing in her code. She got nothing from the bank. Sounds like utter bullshit. What country do you live in? The things I say can't sound more like bullshit than the things you say. I live in the Netherlands. (Because you asked so nicely.) Seems that people in the US have problems like these, too. https://medium.com/@adamdraper/a-hacker-stole-50k-from-my-bank-account-388822389671Hahahahahahahahahaha Another BITCOIN SCAMMER "My name is Adam Draper, I run an accelerator for Bitcoin startups called Boost VC and on January 14th, 2015 I had $50,000 stolen from me. Which is a lot of money, and the worst part is, I don’t know who did it, so I can’t take my rage out on them. So this was my $50,000 lesson."

... no one expects you to post--why not do it? I would. We know you would. It's your day job. And evening hobby. Nah, you're just a paranoiac, and, like all paranoiacs, you suspect all the wrong people of planning to do you harm. I don't--but it IS funny watching you rage at the only guy here who told you this would happen ~Happy Investing!

... If we wanted to run away with any of the funds, we wouldn't post anything here and reply to emails or answer the phone. ... Why not? Danny Brewster [your ticker: NEOBEE] posted many times after he ran, so did Ukyo Jon and TF. Since (for some reason) no one expects you to post--why not do it? I would. Full Disclosure: NotLambchop has visited our office many times before and works for us to make sure all of the Havelock post are kept at the top of the Securities thread. Just look at all his past posts as proof. Thank you NotLambchop for your hard work and dedication. /S I'm glad to be here 4 u in your time of need (totally not laughing, honest Havelock!) to buoy up your spirits! Keep securing that security, no rush. These things take time! ~Happy Investing!

Thanks for making this statement. Sure, things will only be fine when full access to the Bitcoins held on Havelock has been restored, but I feel this is a statement we dearly needed to hear - the one about no coins were lost, which hasn't been said in this clarity and certainty.
Nothing is lost BTC wise since we hold the majority of BTC in cold storage and those coins are all there. As a precaution we also emptied the Hot-wallet and moved everything to cold storage before we began any maintenance on the site. ...

... I bought some Beanies in any case but she doesn't know ... Yeah, it's good to have diverse holdings like that, just to hedge against Bitcoin disrupting math & NOT going to the moon for some reason. By balancing your portfolio you double your money twice as fast cheaper==>smart, like me. It's dinner time son. Please come out of the basement. Is your son with this wacky bitcoiners again? He spends far to much time with them lately and totally neglects my best piece in recent times. You know it is really straining our love life. He got these movies of boys like us wrestling with other Bitcoin doctors, and he teaches me all about books by Ayn Rand, who's a funny man who dresses like a lady, and how money is printed from thin air, and... and other smart mature stuff like that. He said if you're plump and underage smart like me, you can come over too. <3

... If Havelock doesn't come through with that, every possible legal action has to be pursued. They aren't as obscure as one may think...
Let me put it this way: Even when the miscreants here are known by their first, last, middle name & social security numbers, *nothing is ever done*. Nothing. Tell me, how many people are going after Ukyo Jon? I mean, his name & addy are known, his company was registered in Australia, by Graet, and Australia is just a tiny bit tougher on scam than *cough* Panama. I mean, how much less "obscure" can he be? Anyhow, mark my words, Because BitcoinTM.

ITT: Bitcoiners talk about collapsing USD as Bitcoin collapses. Much lel had by all.

Wish I could, mom, but a nice Bitcoiner promised me candy and ice cream so he could touch me inappropriately. But he said all Bitcoiners were doctors, so it's not wrong. I'll be home as soon as he unties me.

... Just hit the ignore button, it's very easy.
If he was smart enough to use the ignore button, would he send coin to a Canadian Anon as a Panamanian Anon in turn pretending to be Havelock, Bitcoin's Premiere Securities Exchange? Checkmate.
