I'm just wondering what they will do with some dead coins what they still traded but there are no nodes, no miners, no network in the outside world Smiley?

This is a spectacular illustration about how flawed the keynesian model really is. But this was known since ages, so I don't understand why this is so surprising for some.

I'm curious about the results. I tend to believe that it was an internal job but probably not Big Vern himself, as that would be just stupid. There was a lot more potential in Cryptsy as a working exchange than 10k BTC and 300k LTC. Perhaps I'm naive, but grabbing the bag and running looks like to kill the goose that laid the golden eggs, and roast it for dinner.

Washington Post is quite often told stupid things. So, who cares? BTW if the Chinese miners start to commit suicide en mass and the buy side will be empty on all major exchanges then I might believe in the end of bitcoin.

After the recent fiascos and scams around ASIC mining stuff, I think you have to turn up with something really convincing thing before you can recruit any investors. Sorry, but we've seen too many vaporware here in the recent years.
666  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: General Opinion on Ethereum on: January 19, 2016, 05:06:05 PM
ETH is a risky business, there are already some competitors out there with pretty much the same functionality and many more coming. I think at this moment it's overpriced for it's usefulness.
667  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why Dogecoin continues to have a lot going for itself on: January 19, 2016, 04:21:20 PM
DOGE is ideally suited for microtransactions, it's cheap, easy to acquire and the community is friendly and helpful. I've seen very few DOGE trolls or DOGE supremacists here Smiley. I think it's an ideal entry level coin. Above all of these factors, the DOGE network is pretty good and the price it's remarkably stable.

I like the idea and I like EGC but I wouldn't call staking mining.

EGC have limited POW blocks, so after some this staking will be the only mining method. Anyway, building such effective staking machines is a good idea.
669  Economy / Gambling / Re: What makes PrimeDice the best? Or one of them? on: January 19, 2016, 04:13:07 PM
Because of PD is an old established site with good reputation. Also Stunna a trusted member here and the community is good as well.
670  Economy / Speculation / Re: What if we sit at $310-$340 for 2 more years? on: January 19, 2016, 12:24:46 PM
The stability would bring constancy which would shut down Uncle Ben's argument, but wouldn't it be boring?

What do you think?

Everybody would be happy because of the stability. It would be boring indeed, especially for daytraders.
671  Economy / Exchanges / Re: E-coin Survey and free virtual e-coin debit card on: January 19, 2016, 09:29:11 AM
Done. Will see if the card is really useful for Paypal. I hope so, Paypal-BTC transactions are always a pain in the back.
672  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins - which do you like? on: January 18, 2016, 10:10:21 PM
My favourites are those coins what I can buy low and then sell high a few days/hours later Smiley.

More seriously: NXT, XRP, XMR... and of course DOGE, but that's only a hobby Smiley.
673  Economy / Exchanges / Re: How Cryptsy can save itself on: January 18, 2016, 09:28:02 PM
If cryptsy can survive depends on how much their debts -/-  assets are. It the difference is too big, no other party would want to take it over.
In a way it would be good if they could survive and/or having the 'hacker' return the funds. But in am very sceptic.

10k btc, 300k LTC (+ 35k btcd and 230k X11) and maybe these are not everything. Also there are some ongoing class action suit against Cryptsy likely will have to pay not just for the coins but also compensation for damages. So it will be a messy stuff what can last for years. I'm not sure if any investor want to jump into such trouble.
674  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What do you guys use to exchange alt-coins now that cryptsy is closed? on: January 18, 2016, 08:38:19 PM
Most of this trading platform have been mentioned but nobody have mentioned yobit.net.

Yobit has a low volume in comparison to polo or bittrex. In addition it's loaded with some of the worst crapcoins what not even good for bittrex Smiley.
675  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Cryptsy customers: Do you favor a buy out scenario? on: January 18, 2016, 06:43:44 PM
Well, the name is tarnished indeed, but IMO it's still salvageable with some proper management. Actually even the takeover itself could raise high hopes. Not sure however if that wouldn't end with a bank run Smiley.
676  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it profitable to invest in betting sites? on: January 18, 2016, 06:38:32 PM
If investing in betting sites wouldn't be profitable, there wouldn't be any investors. However as we can see there are many people who are actually investing in these sites, so on a well established reputable site this must be profitable. I think I'm going to take a closer look at this.
677  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Jews Fleeing the Moslems They Brought to Europe on: January 18, 2016, 04:59:40 PM
Hasn't the Turkey made a deal with EU (meaning Merkel) that they'll take the refugee issue on themselves in exchange for money + political support, including fast-track to EU membership (!?).

Yes they made a deal. Sometimes they even pretend to do something, unfortunately with little effect. Just take a look at the history books and you'll see that turks are rarely used to honour the deals they made.
678  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What do you guys use to exchange alt-coins now that cryptsy is closed? on: January 18, 2016, 04:10:36 PM
Poloniex, Bittrex and C-Cex are some of the most established exchanges. BTW never use only one exchange if not absolutely necessary for some reason.
679  Economy / Games and rounds / Re: We're Giving Away a Trezor Bitcoin Wallet! on: January 18, 2016, 04:02:37 PM
Subscribed. Always wanted to take a look at one of these Trezors, so let's see if I'll win Smiley. I guess not, but what can I lose?
680  Economy / Exchanges / Re: How Cryptsy can save itself on: January 18, 2016, 03:49:28 PM
The problem is that Cryptsy pretty much lost the trust of its customers, and regaining that trust would be a long and hard procedure. Bter survived this way, but it lost most of it's customer base and it's still vegetate on the sideline. I think Cryptsy still salvageable as there are a lot of interest in its survival, but they would need someone to take over.
Actually the way they held back important information and mislead customers used to worth a couple years in jail or at least a rather big fine in most legislations, so I'm not sure if Big Vern will be in the position to carry on with managing Cryptsy.
