Yeah, please do. I'm about 75% certain ace4549 is ac2eugenio, who also sent merit to ace. Some of ace's merits are organic, but most are not...

I'm pretty sure anjho.ace is also ac2eugenio... He got exactly enough merits to rank up between 1/25 and 1/30/18, and hasn't received a single one since! 90 merits in 5 days, a pretty good take.

anjho.ace sent a bunch of merits to gunhell16, who also sent merits to ace4549. And guess what? gunhell16 also got exactly enough merits (150) to rank up to Sr Member, all from 1/25 to 4/18/18, and hasn't earned another one since. What are the odds??

There's a lot of cross-linkages here, which I suspect is merit shuffling through minor alts:



ac2eugenio's ring of alts just went up from 55 to about 80 (note: not all accounts shown above are alts). Its possible that its a team of people coordinating this; i would like to believe that as it seems more sane. otherwise, its just insanity.

If we're moving to ban people for merit abuse, I think all of these aforementioned accounts should be banned. It would definitely discourage this kind of behavior.

This is actually one of my favorite conversations to have. I decided to study neuroscience from a young age because I was caught up in the idea of creating a computer program that could "upload your brain before you die," thereby allowing you to live forever. I was on an "extropians" e-mail list that was started coincidentally by Wei Dai (pre-bitcoin e-money guy) and wanted to learn all I could about longevity.

After my first neuroscience course during my junior year (you have 2 full years of prep before you're even allowed to touch neuroscience), I realized that this is an impossible feat, at least for centuries to come. The human brain is the most complex structure in the known universe. Our best computers can't even begin to touch what it is capable of performing.

After finishing my degree and going to grad school for neuroscience, I came to the conclusion that you're better off just keeping your brain alive inside a jar, placed in a cyborg body. Kind of like Robocop. Of course, entropy will always win, but we're much closer to being able to make this happen than replicating the brain digitally.

One thing that always pissed me off about Star Trek and the idea of "beaming"... Once you get beamed somewhere, you're dead! The old you is just disintegrated and the new you is just an exact replica of you. So yeah, who gives a shit if you can only make a replica of yourself. You're better off just having children, which are one half you, and then call it a day.

Do you ever get tired of talking to yourself? Its pretty obvious you're all the same person. What is up with your weird obsession with this project? Its price is doing pretty well. If you were actually an investor, you'd have to be pretty stoked that its come back up this far. Do yourself a favor and stop crying.

My guess is they didn't actually have the coins to distribute back to their users.

When people started requesting withdrawals, they forced KYC on them. For those who passed the KYC, they upped withdrawal fees. For those willing to pay higher withdrawal fees, they upped the "minimum" coins for withdrawal. For those who could withdrawal the minimum, they took wallets down for "repair".

What's weird is I just tried logging in using my account with them and it is now also locked. If I actually had coins on there I would find it quite unsettling.

They posted this sob story in their official thread. Looks like they are gone. That's about all we can do.


"Spamming with the intention of blackmail"? How does that work? By the way, their posts were being deleted because they kept bumping their thread within a 24 hour period.


Yeah like uploading ID documents to dodgy exchanges.

Well its pretty obvious that, at least, you were the only one without massive photoshop applied to your mug.


Thanks, now I know where/when to call in the bomb threat.

Is there a bounty airdorp sir?

When Binance?

You know what's funny, a few years back there was a "Ripoff Coin," and people bought it, and that's exactly what it did! About 10 pages in to the 53 page (!) ANN thread, people starting complaining about how "man, this is such a ripoff," because it had a wonky block reward and halving structure. I don't think its worth anything now, but if it was, it wouldn't be true to its name.

The third iteration of the ANN has a pretty humorous team member listing.

I put everybody on ignore except infofront, but then he was quoting people I had on ignore, so I had to put him on ignore too. Ahh... the bliss and tranquility of isolation...

The most honest Ethereum token yet, a project called "Donate Me":


You donate Ethereum to him, and he gives you some tokens, and that's it! Most straight forward project ever.

I am posting this evidence of the Invech white paper being plagiarized again for those who are visiting this thread for the first time. This project employs a cheesy bumping service to bump its thread (as can be seen by the obviously fake conversation in this thread by low-level accounts) and their white paper is heavily plagiarized from the Binance whitepaper:







This project is likely to be a scam, do not send your money there.

Jesus Ver Christ. You just doubled down on your own nonsense. Obviously I'm not embarrassed about SegWit because I don't feel the need to deride bitcoin by calling it 'segwit coin'. I've used segwit dozens of times and never once had a problem. The fear of segwit is unfounded, as are most fears guided by ignorance. BTW only bcash shills call bitcoin "Bitcoin Core." This has long been established. Hence my exasperation.

I'm sure your busy rebutting my last comment directed at you but I won't be responding to it.

You are also welcome to your own ridiculous opinion that this forum is a dictatorship, even your right to call it a dictatorship. Which means its not, but that's besides whatever transient, flightless point you were desperately trying to make.


For the twelth bajillionth time, a large number of nodes help speedier propagation of transaction information through the network. They ensure robust communication of blockchain information --- why can't you get this??


Its already happening periodically, for over a year it would seem; starting around November 2017.

I've personally watched people sending bitcoin to themselves with incredibly high fees during intermittent bursts for seemingly no reason other than to increase the average transaction fee.

My bullshit detector is going off the charts. You're the guy who used to refer to bitcoin as "segwit coin" remember? I do.



Which is why I am intent on countering yours. Breher, you're welcome to have your own viewpoint, just don't act like its the only one that's valid. That shit is stupid, and infuriating. And I don't blame V8s for leaving you his rating. You've been proven to be incorrect in your assertions time and time again, which is by all accounts the same as providing misinformation.

I think it has something to do with ac2eugenio, who, wouldn't you know, was also part of the great H8bussesNbicycles scheme to overthrow Lauda. Interestingly, he was never red tagged by Lauda, but it leads me to believe that an alt of his was.

My girlfriend, who is a Filipina, burst out laughing when she read some of the names, and for others she just said "Oh my God, why would they do that??"

She also taught me what "pooque" means, which is thought to be an alt of ac2eugenio, as are some of the names listed in page 1 of this thread.

I'm willing to bet all these accounts belong to him. He is (was) a bounty manager, and even if he stopped posting under that account in late February, I'm sure he lives on in other accounts.

Yes it indeed looks like the account changed hands between July 7th and August 18th 2018, however, if you cannot prove its your account, you'll have little chance of getting it back, as was previously stated...

I'll admit I'm not sure how millisats are rounded up or down upon closure of a channel but I am certain Lightning doesn't inflate their network with satoshis that aren't there.

Despite all this FUD about LN, it continues to grow by leaps and bounds on a weekly basis. Obviously its users don't mind the possibility of having to deal with the potential issues you are fabricating in this thread. Really franky, I don't understand how you can be so angry at a technology.

And I know your reply is going to be telling me to "go do research." How about you provide evidence that backs your thus far completely unsubstantiated claims instead?

Sent one on your behalf.

We perfectly comprehend the consequences of limiting block size and the reasons for doing so, while he remains unwilling to uptake such information into his narrow, jealously guarded viewpoint.

I think exploring opposing viewpoints through debate is good, but you can't have a debate with a slab of stone.

No I mean if I shared Lauda's viewpoint on what people should be tagged for I would tag him as well, but I don't, so I won't.


You're here managing to blather on about nonsense, aren't you? You're hardly being suppressed.

Really? I could have sworn I only got 100. Guess I'm probably mistaken.
