It seems like we just got a much-needed correction.
Now let's go above $10k again!
The actual **** just happened? ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FxDKRyYH%2FClipboard01.jpg&t=663&c=c4H9HG_HRJBu3A) I think we need to get a new meme for the price to pump up to $10k so to stay there this time.

The EPL is in very trying times with this ban on manchester city in UCL and tottenham jose's job on the line if they somehow manage to lose to aston villa tomorrow. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) Manchester city spent all this money on their roster yet they lay so horribly. I am very surprised to see them where they are on the table. Liverpool on the other hand have focus and honed in on players. They know how to make their skills grow without having to keep throwing money and emptying their clubs wallet in doing so. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

I have decided to do something I havent tried much before. Atleast not taken to seriously at anytime of betting putting only a few satoshis on. ![Lips sealed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/lipsrsealed.gif) Player prop bets! ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) Stake just started to put them up and only noticed yesterday when I had already placed my O/U bets on the NBA games last night.

No offense but personally i didn't like this collectible. Makes no sense. It's sort of irony on bitcoin itself which is against such sort of notes based currency. The bill design would look good on Tshirts, something to show when you attend in coin conferences.
Lucho Poletti who created this art painted the 2.1 quadrillion satoshi to be the internet money but will the 2.1 quadrillion satoshis enough for the entire world's currency? Only the future could tell but I'm hoping every satoshi will be worth keeping in the future too.
Yeah it's a neat little thing, nice it references what can happen with unchecked fiat (the Zimbabwean dollar). I think the bear and bull are nice touches but I'm not a fan of the guy Fawkes mask, seems to 4chanish or anonymous and that is not who or what Bitcoin is. Yes i was thinking that where have I seen such a currency note with these much zeroes i saw it on Zimbabwean currency note on the internet during their hyperinflation phase. Looks like they got inspiration from that note only because it looks pretty similar. Here is that note: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fcommons%2F3%2F3e%2FZimbabwe_%2524100_trillion_2009_Obverse.jpg&t=663&c=P1_7SrEMWczlXw) I liked the irony of the zimbabwe currency being a high denomination for literally worth nothing in the american dollar. So I purchased one a little while ago and have it hanging on my wall as a reminder how worthless fiat really is. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FbL9Q75G%2FClipboard01.jpg&t=663&c=xMK1UI7VWQvPUg)

Looks like another multimaster is up. So give it a shot! But just so you know last one had 10 winners on the leaderboard so they split the 300mbtc between them all. ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FGcbfnBS%2FClipboard02.jpg&t=663&c=-728I52TRddUkw) Will post my selections later on. Since the first game is on the 14th. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)

I only remember it pumping an insane amount then dumping.
you can't pump something by having a large amount of that thing. all you can do is dump. Yes you are correct. It was this altcoin I was thinking of actually. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5225091Bulgaria 200 000 BTC again, story from 2015? It has never been confirmed that Bulgaria has come into possession of any Bitcoins, the only thing allegedly confirmed is the investigation of criminal groups from Bulgaria, Serbia, Romania and Greece who are "compromising the countries Customs computerized systems in order to avoid paying taxes" led to information that they were hiding money through BTC. Given the high corruption that prevails in Eastern Europe, does anyone think that this amount of BTC would remain intact today? If they ever had any control over them at all. As result of this criminal activity the damages recorded by the Customs Agency, only for year 2015, is around 10 million Leva. It was determined that the members of the organized crime group invested the money obtained from these illegal activities in bitcoins, around 200,000 being discovered in the virtual space. As a reference, the value of one bitcoin is rating to 2354 USD. The offenders choose the bitcoin way of investing/saving the money, because it is rather difficult to be tracked and followed I think everyone in this thread has come to the same conclusion, if they did actually have them, they don't anymore. No one thinks that Bulgaria is able to keep these safe be it from corruption, immediate greed (sell now get fiat, fuck tomorrow) and most likely corruption. And yes. Makes sense. If they did have such amounts of bitcoin through confiscations due to drug trafficking and whatever else they did, it would of been sold by now into their own currency and any trace of it dissolved from the sale. And with the mining they have done, I think Iraq and China probably has cheaper electricity costing them very little to nothing so to amass much more cryptocurrency this way.

I posted a thread about inregards to the onecoin scammer called the cryptoqueen but then got into the subject of why bulgaria is the country who holds the most bitcoin. Which got me thinking why? ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) It got moved to the altcoin section after hugeblack's response with questioning why I thought so. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5225068A subject back in May 2019 of when they were listed just behind Satoshi on owning the most bitcoin at one time. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5141611.40This had tmfp post about past allegations on the same doctor from other sources. Which has been a buried topic since finding out about it from its moonshot on an exchange sometime last year. I could of sworn it was on binance at one time but can not recall. I only remember it pumping an insane amount then dumping. But this is besides the point of this new thread inregards to the amount of bitcoin being held by the government of bulgaria. So why do you think they are amassing so much? Centralized banking system in the works? Or just seeing something from all the crypto activity in their country from mining to the buying/selling them on a massive scale?

Scams occur when someone "supposed to be reliable" appears to offer others easy solutions that make them rich and then disappear with their money. It is a scam, regardless of whether or not Bitcoin is used. I don’t know how she managed to persuade others to invest, but in the end it affected the news, pushing ads to appear and getting confidence. “This trust will facilitate fraud.” Was this the reason why Bulgaria's government is on top of countries to owning the most bitcoin in the world?
I did not understand the relationship between the two things? Is there something that isn't explained in the video? Yes from a post I created of "Who are the richest owning BTC in the world." https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5141611.0I read in local news, that BTC enthusiasm in Bulgaria was dominated by elites. all who participate in BTC transactions have college degrees. and public enthusiasm in Bulgaria made BTC the main currency. so the Bulgarian government provides ATM BTC in every place. especially in the center of Bulgaria. They are only behind satoshi in owning the most amount of bitcoin. And their citizens pay the government taxes for the amount they claim to own. I wouldnt doubt if they can pay those taxes owing to the goverment accepting its remittance in bitcoin. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Dr. Ruja Ignatova scammed over 3 million people out of more than 15 billion dollars. She even appeared in Bulgaria Forbes magazine as a paid advertisement for this fraud back in 2015. They even had some beauty pagent for miss onelife.com created where the contestant were paid with plastic surgery vouchers and onecoin. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64xcgvEJ3Yscredit to coldfusion producing video Feb.8 2020Was this the reason why Bulgaria's government is on top of countries to owning the most bitcoin in the world?

It looks like Cointelegraph's running out of things to write about lmao. Pretty much almost everyone in the space completely doubts that Craig Wright is Satoshi anyway.
Ofc he isnt satoshi. Do you think SV would be in such a mess if he was? His chain even rolled back sometime last week and knocked off a bunch of their own nodes in the process. This would mean all the updates done on the blockchain were removed since and he restarted it from the beginning of 2009. Any coder let alone the real satoshi would know this would cause horrible things to happen to your own coin. Hence some of the SV nodes started to follow the BCH chain. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)
