Yeah, this is what kids do.  They have difficulties with self-discipline.  Maybe you should think a little bit before you type?

That's a big, controversial assumption.

The SP3X compensation may have accounted for the lower hashrate, but Spondoolies also missed by a wide margin their GH/W power spec.

Regardless, I can't agree with your choice to use the word "victims."

Bitcoin is very risky (it could suddenly break or become obsolete).

Mining with ASICs is an order of magnitude riskier than just hodling BTC (because price/difficulty).

Pre-ordering ASICs is the riskiest of all (because of all the above plus counterpary/firm risk).  It's not for widows, orphans, or the faint of heart.

If you lose a game at a casino or a wager with a bookie, you are not a "victim" and the casino/bookie is not a fucking "scammer."

Spare us the ex post facto infantilization of compulsive gamblers (who either possess extremely high risk tolerance or have no business pre-ordering ASICs).

Calling for bans is pretty bad form I think, he hasn't really done much wrong.

Price stuck in the same rut it's been in for a while, I almost miss the volatility of old.

I am unsure if it would be best to describe my position with Spondoolies as "hired", otherwise I would have "worked" with most of the hardware industry by now.

• Spondoolies provided an SP10, SP30, SP20 and SP35 for evaluation.
• Spondoolies had me sign an NDA in order to discuss very specific business matters.
• While I often provided "consulting" - especially around releases - I was never remunerated for these services.
• Spondoolies also provided access to their affiliate scheme.

That was the limit of our relationship. It just so happens that they decided not to pay me under their own affiliate scheme agreement, hence our relationship will continue for quite some time via lawyers.


My opinion: Directly or indirectly, willingly or unwillingly, knowingly or unknowingly, RoadStress was utilised to discredit or shout over anyone who disagreed with Spondoolies. He was paid for his affiliate sales and so is happy but shouted down others who weren't. I really don't see much difference between RoadStress and ICEBREAKER other than RoadStress is promoting a product that didn't immediately damage consumers, assuming the SP3X compensation they gave was sufficient. There are victims in both scenarios unfortunately.

I just don't understand how people like this and like Snowden seem to feel so shocked when they realize that the government is not the wonderful thing they believe it is. They only have themselves to blame for not educating themselves on the world around them.

The ramblings of the guy sound like he's watched a bunch of conspiracy YouTube videos and put it all into a single suicide letter. Everything in the letter you could get from watching Alex Jones for a week.

If he truly cared about America he would stay alive and collect evidence and expose what people don't already know instead of just parroting what people have been talking about for years. Just like how Snowden revealed a bunch of stuff that people already knew. Those that didn't know already supported what the government was doing anyway, those that did know acted like it was a big deal but they knew it already so it wasn't really a big deal. Meanwhile the guy goes and throws his life away.

It's a big machine. Over $600 billion wasted every year on making the American public feel "safe". And the American voter just loves giving me money so they can feel safe.

Wow that looks like a really good chart right? Looks like the price has been 'breaking out' for over a month as it nudges closer and closer against resistance. Sentiments have been tremendously universally bullish for months as bitcoin makes headlines all over the news and the chart looks just like 2012 right before the 2012 halving. Every thread on the forum is positive and predicts the level of the next rise. Meanwhile, CHINA is still the market leader. What could go wrong, right? The BFX order book bids are paper thin and BFX longs are maxxed out at 32M. Each time this margin level was reached in the past was when bulls were buying in to what looked like a big breakout (such as in July 2014) but inflected into the next decline instead. I'd say there is a distinctive chance of another decline to the 300s before any meaningful rise. I'm not betting anything on that though.

Classic ? Remind me ? 

OMG 11 years old. Stop trolling or i will call your mom.

OK, we get it already.  You expect be to allowed to spout off Gavinista hivemind crap about how "Classic is winning and Core is whining," but not be reminded of such posts when they are no longer congruent with consensus reality.

I recommend you delete all your old premature-XT-victory-declaring posts that are now potential sources of embarrassment, before I find more and use them to humiliate you further.  

Why do you have such a huge problem with being held accountable for what you said in the past?

Do your posts have an expiration date, after which you are no longer responsible for their (spectacularly wrong) assertions?

Your Hillaryesque "Old news is old; at this point what difference does it make?" deflection doesn't change the fact you got #REKT.

Hmmm.  satoshisauce.com has a certain ring to it, and still available.

I'll take that as a grudging (less than graceful, borderline creepy) concession.   

The "remember this" post from January demonstrates I have the patience to wait you out and serve your comeuppance iCE cold.   

Are you going to try to spin and paint Gavin's summary dismissal with some kid of pro-Classic gloss?

Or is the best excuse/distraction you can come up with "ZOMG JANUARY POST WAS FROM JANUARY?"   

The once-mighty herds of Gavinista Lolcows, sadly, are dying.  But I still wake up laughing at their hubris and folly.   

They are afflicted with a malaise no amount of spin and cheerleading can cure.

Even such dumb beasts possess an intuitive inkling of impending doom.  Perhaps they can smell the death pheromones wafting from Core's Darwinian slaughterhouse.

Gavininsta Lolcows once roamed the plains of Bitcoin in great numbers.  Now they are reduced to writing "we still love Gavin even if he lied and/or is stupid" fanfic on /r/btc.

Looks like the two of you want to use scant evidence and nearly pure conjecture to continue this matter when more easily and readily available means to prove (if CW had been involved as Satoshi) exist and are not being employed... in other words, you are attempting to spread FUCD... based on pure conjecture when the actual direct evidence and logic supports the contrary conclusion that Wright is a credential reliant, fucking phoney and wanna be scam artist.

This interview with him sucks butt. I'm not interested in what he has to say after all this cryptic shit.

I think the most sensible theory going is that Kleiman was the voice of Satoshi on this forum; the times during which our Satoshi posted seems to suggest he was doing it from the states. I think Wright probably wrote the white paper and had Kleiman edit it? And it was probably Wright communicating with Gavin by email.

Or not. But it has to have been someone, and a bunch of this stuff fits. Even if CSW happens to be some kind of nut. Let's face it...

Segwit is (as promised) right here:

Now who is the one whining?  You.

Now who is the one winning?  Me.
