Who are y'all going with tomorrow? I just put in a non-dangerous parlay with Rams, Chiefs and 49ers to win ML -- comes out to 1.86x. I'm feeling pretty decent about it, but you never know of course. There's usually at least 1 good upset every week.

But in his original post he still says:


Are you saying gosha@e-coin is trying to set up Betnomi? Later on they said this:


Kind of seems like they were caught red handed... but of course the Betnomi support person swears they weren't... interesting story, needs more supporting evidence.

Thanks for the answer. I'm playing around with the wallet a little bit and am wondering if you could explain a bit more about what the end goal here is... To be able to move value through multiple blockchains, but I'm wondering what in your opinion gives the tokens their underlying value? I'm having a hard time putting it all together.

Were you using the bot incorrectly again?

The BotHive account still have a 25,000% gain rate overall, so whats a minor loss every now and then?

Just wait until the next bot comes out, Mothra.


Looks like the bot got trapped in a short position, tried to double-down and then triple-down... ouch.

Oh I get it now, you think everybody is a communist! Sure, we're all on a spectrum from Joe Stalin to Bernie Sanders when it comes down to brass tax (which should be increased BTW).


Similar to how 'little people' will sometimes refer to non-little people as "reachers," as they depend on them to retrieve things placed on high shelves otherwise out of reach. As with all perjoratives, you can decide to find humor in it or to take it personally.


Not sure how to take that. Is it meant to be a complement? Surely its not as bad as having a cybersex thread with a minor in the Off Topic section of the forum.


Yes, and I make them sign a standard waiver as well. Out of curiosity, do you always refer to women as females? I heard they think that's, like, really hot.


Can't say that I have. Heard about it though. As the first child born and raised on Antarctica, I grew up in isolation from the female specie, but thanks to my research on the internet I can now pinpoint their physical differences from males with great accuracy. It's a moot point though because my wedding tackle has been thoroughly frostbitten.


That's OK. Sometimes I get the feeling that's not a problem you have to worry about.  

The stock market sank and then bitcoin along with it. Another example of the price of BTC being tied to the stock market can be found in today's action when Trump announced there won't be a second round of stimulus.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/trump-delays-stimulus-bitcoin-dumps-in-shortly-thereafter

It's not the delay in stimulus that caused BTC to dump per se -- its the fact that Wall Street holds a lot of bitcoin now and bad news causes institutional traders to dump it first as it is their highest risk asset.

I don't get why some people are still fighting the obvious tooth-and-nail. You don't have to believe "America is important" or anything -- you just have to admit there's an increasingly occasional correlation between stock market movement and bitcoin movement.

That's OK, we'll live... Congress just can't give money to the people who need it without giving 1,000,000x as much to the wealthiest 1%; its impossible for them... that's just the way that it is. Meanwhile the price of everything has jumped at least 10% this year.    Another stimulus package would only drive up inflation all the more.

One other thing you can do (if he doesn't refund you or finish the deal within whatever time frame) is add a flag to his account. I would add the type 2 or 3 flag about implied or written contract. That will cause a red (reddish) box to show up at the top of every thread he started that says "Warning: One or more bitcointalk.org users have reported that they strongly believe that the creator of this topic is a scammer." It looks like this. Just use this thread as your reference thread when making the flag.

Edit: just saw the above posts, took too long writing up my post I guess.

That's nice of you to say. And I mean that sincerely. After all the shit he talked about Hillary being sick, and basically all the ill will he's wished upon millions of Americans (and millions more around the world) over the years, I honestly can't find any compassion in my soul to spare for him. But I'm glad that you can.

Monbux is no longer an escrow. If somebody contacts you on Telegram claiming to be Monbux, they are a scammer.

The real Monbux needs to lock this thread as its only purpose for the last couple years has been to help scammers.

It's a bit irresponsible of him to continue leaving the thread unlocked at this point.

People have been crying about how broken and unfair the trust system since its earliest incarnation, so nothing has really changed in that regard. What has changed is that it is now more decentralized than ever in that anybody has the potential to become DT1. No longer do you have to be anointed and receive theymos' magical tap on the shoulder. It went from being a monarchy to a democracy -- don't know how people could be upset about that.

I think its working well as a lot of those in it are motivated to do good and basically be helpful to the forum or else risk losing their status. There's a few collectibles people in it that couldn't care less, and that's fine -- after all, people don't really "run for office", they just meet certain criteria and their inclusion is automated.

For the most part DT1 does a good job of regulating itself. It's a diverse mix of several elements, constantly evolving and democratically deciding what constitutes proper use of trust.


I think the point actmyname was making is that if the Trust System was really that bad, more users would be creating custom trust lists as a way to protest the state of things.

In reality, its not that bad. People are gonna cry no matter how its implemented, especially scammers or those whose opinions of themselves are far greater than they are perceived by the general community.

I want to say Ghost was McAfee's last foray into shitcoin shillery but he has one other thing going on that I see people advertising in their sigs occasionally.


(originally the guy said he lost 35 ETH but he edited his comment today -- wonder if that's a sign he made "inner peace" -- lol)

About time really -- though I did not see the whole tax evasion angle being the reason for his final downfall. Guy is one of the biggest charlatans of the crypto space. Everything he ever touched turned to shit. Why people kept giving him cred long after this trend was established is beyond me.

I kind of like this hat... its the same trucker cap used by the WO hat gang. Is it OK if I use this as well?

Now's a great chance for Trump to demonstrate that he is capable of humility. Now that the virus has personally affected him, maybe his outlook on it will change and he will be a bit more sensitive toward the problem. I notice he's already stopped calling it the "China virus" which is a good first step forward.

How do you guys feel about New England vs. Kansas City today? Because of the lack of Cam Newton, the spread is currently +11.5 NE. It would appear that the starting QB for the Pats is going to be Brian Hoyer, who even though has been playing since 2009, I've never heard of. 11.5 seems like a lot of points but I'm under the opinion that the Chiefs can cover that no problem... Any reason not to take the Chiefs here that I might be missing?

Yes, You are right here.

Ultimately, BitMEX contributed very little to the Bitcoin ecosystem. They were more or less just a casino pretending to be an exchange. I won't feel bad if they get shut down completely as they offered very little value to actual traders... As I said initially, you can't actually trade anything for anything there. It's just a video game where you get rewarded Fun Tickets if you win the game, which are then redeemable for BTC. That part of "bitcoin culture" needs to disappear entirely if actual bitcoiners (not Arthur) want not only regulators but the general public worldwide to take them seriously.

Hey, congrats! It was touch-and-go with the Bills game for a few minutes but now you've gotta be feeling pretty positive about the outcome. Round of beers for everybody, on you! 

Luckily I got refunded from the Bucs / Chargers game as the score hit the line exactly. I plowed that back into Buffalo... My total gambling balance is still down 50% for this season but I'm gonna keep at it.

Oh right, Mike Pence. I see the resemblance now. 

Is he supposed to be that girl's dad?
