First part was quite positive
I like the part about mega VCs investing in massive data centers to mine bitcoins. They're concerned about money laundering via bitcoins, but when given an example, nobody flinches. Care for another example? Have you noticed all those Bitcoin Miner product sites lately? Not the ones discussed on this forum via threads introduced by their owners, of which are then turned into some sort of flame war or scam thread, but the other ones. The handsomely built ones, with all the bells and whistles, with order pages in place. Those, those that you'll never hear a single complaint about by nary a customer. Why? Because the owners are their only customers. The above hit me like a ton a bricks only a few minutes into that first video. Every one of those sites that I eluded to above can easily transact, then covert to fiat directed to their bank accounts, a quarter to a half million dollars in sales and, get this, the entities could all be registered and totally in compliance. For those playing at home desiring to know exactly how the above is played out, simply ask, whereupon I'll pen a detailed post outlining the simple procedure. ~TMI BTCITW

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=412061.0-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hey guys, Sorry for my (yet again) unannounced hiatus for the past month or so - I have been extremely busy due to heavy travelling and am just back to Malaysia from China. I am alive, although not really well and extremely apologetic for what my delay have done. I've released a few escrows I've been holding in the order of magnitude and those I can clear within this hour. bitcointalk forum coins (of 1000 BTC) https://blockchain.info/tx/fe43797656265047b886de3bbac48d720cf60b4dfeadb61fa87434a80ba7f72bI'll clear the raffle coins once I figure out who won as I didn't receive a PM regarding this yet, but be rest assured that I'll clear this ASAP. I'll be back to clear everything else once I get back to the States again - I'm catching another intercontinental flight in roughly 12 hours which should last around 25 hours including layovers, and hopefully I'll use the jet lag when I reach there to clear the remaining urgent escrows. Best, John -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: GPGTools - https://gpgtools.orgiQIcBAEBCgAGBQJS0oJvAAoJEINT5jezqu6wTIsP/3BnMrqRuPxgfrdxYq9xpPRl wYnP8Xl3xBKgLTXePqwEsTJvuiPXlu3/NcrLiXz9nNUXoxDzE5eHiFN0cPV5d47o zvk37sd2prMWpLLiIn/LOvEu7xlY6VdkrKAdwF1UF5K+FJUhiTxU4cAti7HCn7ty d5nPBuj6JgsmpW+5ojaqjnfUx2KBRXGvi1/1vPgLIUB9WrX/JjPa7R61uX1CRKXl 7IaRBhVDVHyetmUqNTFx7EnTgBFIIH2sw0HD2upJ5vA4oEM1fLuCHqp76CR5qi9H XZSY3M/IYFxTia0FEZA87aEXd0B4TvpxHitnF8HvS0EDm2mAxOpj6cnM14eWhwYP uvvcR/NGlH6Kn7j8XGAFdC367eRFlbhBKrxjOsSN6U44cAOWfY5d6KJ1AC3yuRpD g0bJNpv5hVtBz5w1cE5EmvEXgOYl+UT0B8VXi/KSZYahFaofvh7Cie80LVKkwqIq mr9XUBDv9Zh/mNqdAdK2Hxo4VdgRiEWXWaWeof0ECSFtYlPdQPEmZ9fJnvTgA0iC JipoMg61FTiJy9NtX7vPj4d3VFTN4b8D4fhVhRDeMpQG6LRkiFTp4mbdtbsh11pc X0eVJUgSpd0+X4mwUtTRfGOoGPTRfJJRwKpZA/VTb2iJf0dZEEJrIMjpOEB8x6v2 RYKac5G48zh+QrkxW6Ly =St4X -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Attached email from theymos: -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 John K., Please sent the 1000 bitcoins you are holding for the forum to the following address controlled by me: 1M4yNbSCwSMFLF9BaLqzoo2to1WHtZrPke This is an official order.

How can you find anyone's address by "guessing" By rolling the SHA256 dice.

So many mistakes in the following paragraph alone. Even the CEO of Bitcoin, an online currency exchange, couldn’t escape the watchful eye of an undercover DEA agent. Monday, Bitcoin’s CEO, Charles Shrem, and Bitcoin user, Robert Faiella, were arrested on a charge of conspiring to commit money laundering in connection with the “Silk Road” drug website, which allows users to buy and sell drugs anonymously. WTF! Even a YouTube video is entitled incorrectly: Bitcoin Boss Arrested ( Bitcoin executive Charlie Shrem is accused of money laundering )

This shit ain't prohibition. It's tracking down fuckin idiots who think they are internet che guevarras when they can't even take care of themselves.
When prohibition doesn't work, it's time to kill and erase everything. You think prohibition is somekind of an ultimate form of state oppression? LOL this posh ass thinking.
Exactly what I would expect from 1st world retards who believe they know anything about 'government oppression'.
This kid got his ass burned because he thought he could run his shit behind his computer without any repercussions in other people's lives. His was a crime of ignorance and irresponsibility, and now he's paying for it. Crypto can be used for all kinds, certainly as a means to pay off someone for murdering your family.
Who are you all kidding anyway?
Kid can't even take the time to shave, and he wants to be a dirty money laundering kingpin. What a joke. Believe it or not, Charlie probably shaved at least every two days, but with an electric razor set at some minimum depth.

Will I be the first? Its been about a month since I lost all my coins, which was all my savings, and only income. I can no longer afford to live.
Anything you want to disclose before you depart? Charlie,
I've used your service to buy ~10K USD in bitcoins over the last couple of months. I was just wondering if your process is going to change once Mt.Gox US goes to Coinlab? As in any reportings to Government/IRS. My question is aimed mostly towards cashing out, since I believe your service can move Mt.Gox cash/codes to Paypal. Which I can then pull out at an atm or use as fiat.

What the actual fuck? :|
Exactly what I said out loud when I first viewed that video, hence now desiring to move to Ukraine to hunt down and marry that pole. I just wished that that loosely clad blonde chick hadn't gotten in the way of my view so many times, but at least it left enough to my imagination. What a silvery beauty! ~TMI BTCITW

I was wondering where they put this thread. For a second there, I thought this too was missing.

The official thread to counter-argue another thread (not linked) bearing a similar title.
Discuss!

Then help me find them! Here are the biggest wallets to start with: http://bitcoinrichlist.com/top100The Winkles own roughly 92.000 BTCs ("Their investment was worth $11 million in April at $120 per coin." Source: http://www.cnbc.com/id/101190181) I saw a video where they stated, they still hadn't sold any coins, I'm pretty sure that video was from September 2013. So which one(s) are they? Any additional hints? Would be hard to track because Robert M. Faiella had them put all their bitcoins in Mt GOx for safe keeping. "Robert, we're both new to this Bitcoin thingy, and..." "Don't worry about a thing. I have two friends of which I work closely with on the board at The Bitcoin Foundation." "Good enough for me!" "Me, too, Skro!" "Great! I brought along some NEFT to celebrate." <after a few drinks> "Well, you boys ready to sign? We're losing money!" "Shouldn't we have our lawyer look..." "Already ahead of you! Patrick wrote it."

Really like this idea! I'll be giving it some thought ..and would be interested in tossing in a BTC donation.
How do you like them apples, Dogecoin? BTC already has its first backer (not officially yet) while DOGE is still chasing its tail. And you call yourselves a contender. DOGE doesn't stand a chance against BTC for the C-C2ME Prize. ~TMI BTCITW

http://www.alanarnette.com/alzheimer/donate.phpJust found the above on the site I mentioned in the OP. Seems to me to be a perfect candidate for Bitcoin 100 to endow them $1,000 USD via BTC if they simply embed a Bitcoin donation option onto their website. Don't even think about it, Dogecoin! ~TMI BTCITW

<C-C2ME = Crypto-Currency to Mount Everest, and I as in Super Bowl I> At the risk of getting the cart before the alpaca, the race could be announce here: http://www.alanarnette.com/blog/2014/01/02/welcome-everest-2014-coverage/If you are one of my 1 million readers, hello again, if you are new, welcome!
My goal is to provide insight and analysis of what is going on up there with no favorites or agendas. I use sources directly from the mountain, public information and my own experiences to develop my posts. Dogecoin's motto is "To the moon!" and here's their chance to see if they can even win a race to atop Mount Everest this climbing season, 2014, competing against Bitcoin. The race consists of only two teams (unless this somehow morphs into allowing other teams, of which is quite possible considering the open-endedness of the name I conjured up): Bitcoin and Dogecoin. The first climbing team, or solo climber, that they get to plant their respective flag (or some official flag) atop Mount Everest wins. The winner is determined by which team's image of said flag is documented on the internet (or broadcasted live, if that's even possible), using some predetermined time stamp (unix time comes to mind) as proof, thus it's possible for the first, second, third, etc. climber who completes the task first can end up losing to some subsequent climber officially documenting the planting first--a race within a race. Bitcoin and Dogecoin can have more than one climbing team in place to better their odds of winning, and it's up to both to make sure that their respective winning climbing teams are awarded for their efforts, even if they didn't win the overall race, thus two climbing teams are rewarded. Let the race begin! ~TMI BTCITW ALL EDITS TO THIS POST, SANS GRAMMAR, WILL BE POSTED BELOW.

How did me made customized QR code? That is awesome. I wish to learn. Please. Please. Please. If you're asking about creating a QR-Code that links to a URL, simply Google "QR Code generator" (without quotes). It's a free service. All the added stuff you see above was adding via Photoshop by Bitcoinwunder, of which I paid for his services via a bounty campaign I had running.
