Sorry, had to repost here...FakeSatoshi is following the 'fable' below to the letter! Craig Wright says Blockstream Hacked him to forge documents! I mean how 'delusional' does he think we are? He is dead on track and is now following this old Fable, but Time is running out! It is 'bleedingly' obvious with the 'fake private key' with Gavin Anderson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gavin_Andresen not proving as he thought to get everyone to believe he was Satoshi, he has been just doubling down and digging a deeper and deeper hole. He is using the strategy below, but time is running out quickly, especially with, IMHO, his 'unexpected' loss to the Dave Kleiman Estate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Kleiman. From his first claim to know, things have completely spun out of control for FakeSatoshi. Anyway, it perfectly fits the fable below or his strategy, IMHO. --------------------------------- Fable Title: Teach a Horse to Sing! Link: https://www.beliefnet.com/columnists/mindfulnessmatters/2010/08/metaphor-monday-teach-a-horse-to-sing.htmlSo it goes like this. According to an old story, a man sentenced to be hanged fro offending the Sultan offered a deal to the court: if they would give him a year, he would teach the sultan’s horse to sing, earning his freedom; if he failed, he would go to the gallows willingly. When he returned to the dock, a fellow prisoner said, “Are you crazy?” The man replied, “I figure, over the course of a year a lot can happen. Maybe the sultan will die, and the new sultan will pardon me. Maybe I’ll die; in that case, I wouldn’t have lost a thing. Maybe the horse will die; then I’ll be off the hook. And who knows? Maybe I’ll teach the horse to sing! --------------------------------- Another saying, "You reap what you sow". --------------------------------- This fable, IMHO, is 'exactly' what Craig Wright is doing with all his various denials/and contortions to get him out of his many, many, lies. But Time is running out, and the 'explanations' are getting wilder and wilder. Teaching a horse to 'sing' at this point may be a lot easier than proving he is Satoshi and the inventor of Bitcoin, at this point in time! He is well and truly screwed! Brad

Caught "The Rise of Skywalker" last night with Rick. It was like watching two and a half hours of shit being smeared all over my eyes.
I get more excited watching The Mandalorian E7 tonight at home than The Rise of Skywalker in the cinema. Truth. The story 'arc' with some tightening up on some stuff to make it a 2-hour movie would, IMHO, have done a lot better than the last 2 star wars movies just saying. Not sure it was worth the $69 a year price I paid, I can find NOTHING of any real note on the site to watch besides the Mandrian...thus a loss of $$$. Have the exact same problem with CBS Access and Star TreK: Discovery as well. Sh*t. Well at least with Picard that will be 2 shows I can watch on the CBS Access site. It is like commercial T.V. is not even trying anymore to make quality products, only if you subscribe can you see anything good now it seems.

I almost sprang for a Jan S-17 Pro, until I remember last time I got a 25% duty, but to add insult I got a notice from the state of Illinois for 8% sales tax.
Hmmmmm....indeed...I wonder if this applies to Minnesota as the same. Anyone here has experience with anything from overseas getting hit with sales tax now with the internet state tax changes? I am unsure, but the shipping for such a unit is what in addition to all the above what? About $175 or some such? I always forget about shipping when I used to order stuff as well, it was annoying. But not much in the market at 10c kWh at these BTC prices anyway, but hey, a guy can hope! Brad

I have a BTC node...that went 'phooey'. It was the 'lazy' way to get a BTC node..just buy it. It is a Bitseed BTC Node with 1TB HD. (Maybe it went phooey because 1TB is not enough? Now that the place is out of business, not even sure if the site is still up. I tried www.bitseed.organd such is dead. Anyway, suggestions on doing a rebuild with the PI and the 1TB in this beastie. I THINK the PI is a Model 2, but unsure. So, anyone else in this boat. Also my LINUX to build such consists of following detailed instructions line by line, er...NONE. Thanks Brad

They said they will send the t17+ 64th model with a delay.
If I need to drop a hammer for it being late I will do that.
I am impressed you got the PayPal angle going with Bitmain....nice to at least have some 'pushback' for their silly actions I guess or the 'let them eat cake' for the masses as their mantra. At least 'someone' can play slap-back with PayPal at least! Also, remember ...they always slow way down around Xmas thru the Chinese New Year which I think winds up the first week in February and generally no action much if any shipping (if I remember right) from Xmas till almost February. It is like everyone takes the frigging month off. IMHO. This is past actions by Bitmain..perhaps I'm confusing this with Chinese New Year Timeline and Bitmain was only 'yanking' equipment for their own mining uses back in the day a few years back. Being truly evil and all that is also a possibility. But anyway, if there is a shipping snag it will be between Xmas and the 1st Week in February 2020 ..if the past is any guide...so just be aware...(other can chime in here if I am spot-on or full of sh*t ..I will bow to their expertise) But seems to me that is the way it has played out in the past with Bitmain and other Asian Based ASIC makers historically.

FML, if Mimblewimble was ever needed to come out quick, this would be the time. I mean frigging really?
Litecoin as I type this at 'barely' back up above $40 at $40.85! Sh*t!
They should be on, the Litecoin folk, full bore development PR and Mimblewimble and other dev stuff in the works.
I mean if under $40 coin in the last day, does not light a fire under some folks asses in the Dev world of Litecoin..well hell.. all frigging hope is lost
Mimblewimble or not!
Not encouraged at all.

Lisk Central America is leaving the project posted today at r/Lisk erased by one of the neutral, unbiased r/Lisk Reddit mods afterwards
Neutral? Unbiased? You have forgotten the smiley thought the sarcasm would shine through that. You are another critical Lisk-investor and therefore Muck-victim I guess? I'm in HODL mode because LISK is, not quite, 3x the value it was when I got it on the ICO, back in the day! That was 25c USD. Now it is 65c USD. https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/lisk/So at this point, I missed the $30 plus LISK boat so bad, well the boat i refer to is in another Galaxy, I'm so out of it. So at this point I HODL on the hope someday there will at least be a pump over $1.00 or so LISK and then I'll likely call it a win and punt! Then again, LISK may not last that long. Just to clarify this post above in this thread. LISK is no longer 3x the ICO price of 25c it is now only 30c above the 25c ICO price. LISK, IMHO, if not a dead and dying coin, is sure making a good run at looking like one! Not encouraged at all! Brad

They are yet to reply. I will email again today.
As an aside? With your PayPal option and the further addition of days if you did so via credit card, I assume you still have time to drop the hammer on Bitmain for switch bait of product at the last minute? Curious, would serve them right, but unsure if that is a legit option with coupons and the other manipulations that bitmain may stall or have you go through. But again, I'd think a PayPal rep and for sure an Amex rep on your information would fall all over themselves, if you wish such, to get refunded. Anyway, if you pull the trigger on such or not, is my assumption correct and this is a drastic backup action you may have to use on this? thanks (again on the bleachers/ watching the show/eating junk food)

Yeah this coin is all but dead. No meaningful exchanges and now the best block explorer is gone =/
Hi GenTarkin. I think Fujicoin will really die if the community is gone. Now, funding is also required for listing on a mid-sized exchange. Unfortunately, the Fujicoin community has no funds. Can you lead and collect funds? Can't get funds if likely the exchanges will drop your coin at 80 million FJC for sale as an example on yobit at the lowest satoshi setting they have 0.00000001 units. Without some action the next purge of the exchanges will dump this coin. No buys I can tell but dust in months...again, going no where without some major changes to protocol/miners/go pow/merge with some other project/ go litecoin route and do mimblewimble..something ..it is like a dead kite on a telephone line it sparks once in a bit but it means nothing.

First time hearing of this. Has anyone have experience storing their files in this?
All I know is I looked into this 9 months ago..and even with the cheapest of "used' equipment I could not make this storage stuff fly by making any size box in any way/shape/form worth doing and profitable. It is all data hall folks that do this on the side as far as I can tell. So until that part is fixed...we are due at BEST to sideways.....IMHO...but again, the devs are failing with this project in so many directions from sia-tech/grin debacle\little use coin with high difficulty due to over mining or how shall I say instead, driving up difficulty without and corresponding use or adoption of that coin so IMHO vs adoption or hell at least the storage thing in break-even mode am not encouraged by siacoin at this point, at all Brad

I am distressed....about 1/2 a month to go and I doubt that I will reach my $11,111.11 guess for the high on December 31st, 2019. Alas, the 2013 BTC Kool-Aid was strong with the force in this one! Would it not be great however if I was correct to see the price pop back up to around that? Alas, better odds of being Natalie Portman's Love Puppet at this point. (Wait! That means I still have a chance for either!)

lmao ppl stilllll believe in this shit?
fucking sad.
this coin had its 15mins of fame, then died a rekt death given the markets and direction the team took.
Yeah...just riding the 1.25 million Siacoin I got before selling my 5 miners for what I had in them USD wise for BTC....glad I held on to the BTC so I'm ahead of all this. Hoping for a pump. Would be nice if somehow they saw the light and merged with ARK or something...but likely as I said in my previous, IMHO, post..they are just riding this project into the ground on the Siacoin end and then the USA bankruptcy angle for the Sia-Tech end. Does anyone know if their supposed 'decentralized network' is really doing anything of note? Or is it backsliding as well?

sia team is one of the most hard workers in crypto scene. They have a better in price product than they rivals. Last october sia hit the higher used storage. I thing price will reflect all the work soon
The sia-tech team took all your BTC back in the day and converted it to cash (maybe, so they said) ..then then became a 'miner business' along the lines of Butterfly Labs. The ship late, make 'dubious' products. Suddenly after development, they decide NOT to offer Grin miners (even though they have working immersion units) ..this sounds to me like KNC when they made BTC chips just for themselves and mined massively. Or if the above is too pessimistic...they bet on GRIN miners and it is a complete loss and they are left holding the bag. Also NO new boards or Siacoin miners (truthfully, why bother) When asked if I will ever get my lake compensation of $600 or so from Sia-Tech for my very 'late' SC1 unit back in the day.....I get a letter saying I will be refunded when/if they make a profit this year! So being a USA company...I fully expect them to do what all USA ASIC makers of any note have done in the past, like Butterfly Labs and GAW and a mess of others. Declare units shipped (even though way late). Then have the Sia-Tech Corporation declare bankruptcy. (keeping all those nice personal BTC for individuals that where accumulated back in the day) ...ie..the usual USA corporation raider stuff..drain the corporation dry and then have it take the hit on the bankruptcy protecting all those folk that started Sia-Tech. Rinse/Wash/Repeat. I think we are pretty much out of say 5 ASIC makers in the USA ZERO FOR 5 in that when times got tough they just bailed and let the corporation go bankrupt and take the legal fall. As far as SEC is concerned as long as they SENT SOMETHING OUT...even if like BFL a year late..they kinda treat it like a T.V. and say hell, you got such. I could also get into the point of all the siacoin being mined and difficulty with no real use yet of note with their decentralized storage ..but that is s different rabbit hole to go down. Glad I dumped my 5 units for what I got into them in $$$ and paid in BTC ..so still in HODL mode on that and ahead of the game. Also, have 1,250,000 Siacoin from them, I can't really use in (1) never can get their wallet to work after five tries, will never take the passcode (2) As an alternative looked for a legit paper wallet and from what I saw an unsupported fly by night one is not gonna do it for me. Thus, still shared on the buddies wallet we co-mined too...and he says he can never get the wallet to synch completely to use it! Yep, things are frigging wonderful with Sia don't ya think? I mean it is a major 'supposed' coin and they don't even have a paper wallet of any legit nature? Nope, they are no longer even trying. If they were they'd be offering SC1 original box boards yet at a discount and such for all other batches of equipment and let us apply 'supposed' compensation (my $600) towards such....as it is they are sitting on their hands IMHO waiting for a pump in BTC price and 'hoping' that Siacoin does some 'modest' price increase..then my bet again is, they will declare Sia-tech bankrupt and walk with the BTC etc that they have got out of project and split. Tis, the way of 'failed' USA corporations, the corporation fails and the owners walk away with no liability..in this case, all that BTC you sent them from back in the day. So many moving parts in all the above have to change drastically in order to prove my premise above wrong..that I can't even imagine such. end of rant Brad

The only thing I may do is I have a lot of work wiring and other stuff in my basement. I may just toss up a couple of KNC Titan Scrypt Miners and mine some LTC like back in the day...maybe even put up the old KNC Jupiter BTC miner from 2013....let see...I think that would generate about 3300 watts or some such, along with the regular basement ceiling mounted 'space heater' I seem to know have to put up..now that I'm not mining since 2013. I mean they are very crummy space heaters..but at least I'd get SOMETHING back out of the beasties..even if just pennies! I really liked all those years since 2013 putting electricity in one end and getting massive amounts of BTC/Crypto worth out the other end. People are like, if you are bored now, make a new business. Yeah, right, like I can find another business where I do the above and make what I did home and data hall mining at 10c kWh again. Damn hard for lightning to strike twice!

Yeah, forgot to mention it is good the other 10% was not added on to this. But Phase one is simply (mostly) agriculture, which in 20/20 hindsight probably neither China nor the USA would ever go down that road again, too much backlash. Better to just have the 25% on more or less everything to 'dilute' the backlash. Those 'pesky' farmers were noisy, on news and all, as a specific united group. I see under the classification now ASIC's are called 'electronic components' or some such. Which is too bad because there was some talk of exempting I think it was laptops for Christmas a while back? (Not sure if desktops). Anyway, that would maybe be the next thing taken out of the tariff IMHO, but we are gonna, 'specific' consumer products by name, to lessen the pressure. miss that loophole I guess. I'm just 'wizing in the creek' here ..not like at these prices for ASIC equipment, even without the tariffs, at 10c kWh electric I could realistically spring for any equipment anyway. But, like an old 'retired' HOME ASIC miner (now defunct species) I like to follow my quaint historical past and/or see how others with better options are dealing with all this.

Unsure what you mean if the "25% Tariff remains as is" which is probably most stuff that is not related ro Agriculture.

I think Binance has nothing to do with that, it was already listed and free traded and then why criticising Binance for a price dump of an IEO project. if a project token was dump it could be mean a lot? or maybe the hodlers,investors was losing its confidence in the project. or maybe from the team also who possibly dump the matic token on exchange. and i believe that its not beyond Binance control.
Because Yobit is promoting such 'iffy' IEO's and givnig them a platform and the thin look of 'legitimacy' even if it seems really sketcy! Sorta 'co-enabling' the whole somewhat iffy process.
