The collapse is beginning guys, looks like my estimate at Q1 was right, remains to be seen though whether it will be a full collapse or the Euro zone will keep limping on, expect other central banks to get desperate.

Lethn, very interesting because relatedly, the last of the 7 great Pluto-Uranus squares takes place from December 2014-March 2015. I was just combing through my old emails today and stumbled back upon this passage (which I received July 2013):

The final squares between Uranus and Pluto

The final two cosmic conflicts in the series of squares between Uranus and Pluto... and how they affect your sign.
Between June 2012 and March 2015, the world will have seen a series of seven rare and powerful right angles between Uranus and Pluto. The final (and potentially most powerful) of the two remaining squares, takes place between December 2014 and March 2015.

Astrologers are a little divided about what precisely they mean. Some say they spell the death of the old world, the end of a cold, callous political and economic system that has dominated planet Earth for centuries. With this must go the mechanisms that have traditionally been employed to keep borders closed, armies primed, taxes paid and fearmongers in power. No longer will governments, the world over, be able to maintain their grip on power by fostering fear, prejudice, hatred, intolerance, selfishness, greed and separation. Other astrologers point out that wherever an old system is collapsing, a new one must emerge. They see the Uranus/Pluto squares as heralding the birth of a new global paradigm in which millions, worldwide, refuse to be kept in check by a constant stream of news stories, all based loosely around the apparent threats that some nations pose to others... and the sense of anxiety that surrounds the belief that ’we’ must be kept safe, at all costs, from ’them.’ Coming next is a new phase for humanity, built upon a newly developing appetite for mutual trust, respect, acceptance and co-operation!

It’s not that some astrologers disagree with this view. It’s more that some say it’s too long-sighted. Such a golden, more glorious time may well be coming... but before any of us can get there, we must first live through many long, dark days full of gloom and hopelessness. They wonder what will be left of the world by the time the heavy veil of despair is finally raised. My own careful cosmic studies have left me very sure that those brighter times are, indeed, coming... and that they will, indeed, begin to make themselves evident from April 2015 onwards. And while I won’t pretend that I see an easy ride from here to that point in the future... the world has survived far worse in the past and reports of some imminent end to life on Earth as we know it are grotesquely premature!

It is, though, fair to say that the communal, collective roller coaster that we will all find ourselves riding as we watch the news over coming months will be reflected by the dramatic inner journeys that we all find ourselves undergoing; emotionally and psychologically. No matter what sign we are or when we were born, we can expect upheaval, self-doubt, deep reflection and intense review, followed by a sense of liberation and inspiration that allows us to finally start shaping and claiming the kind of lives we have long dreamed of living. It’s not that those changes in our hearts are all due to happen suddenly, on one given date. It’s fairer to say that we’re already going through those processes of inner change as we speak and that these will continue, with only brief pauses and interruptions until the end of March 2015.

While interesting, did I miss the mention of Bitcoin in this article?

Perhaps move this to off topic?

885  Economy / Economics / [2015-02-05] Danmarks Nationalbank: Interest Rate Reduction on: February 05, 2015, 06:49:19 PM
http://www.nationalbanken.dk/en/pressroom/Pages/2015/02/DNN201521789.aspx

Effective from 6 February 2015, Danmarks Nationalbank's interest rate on certificates of deposit is reduced by 0.25 percentage points to -0.75 per cent. The lending rate, the discount rate and the current account rate remain unchanged at 0.05 per cent, 0.0 per cent and 0.0 per cent, respectively.

The interest rate reduction follows Danmarks Nationalbank's purchase of foreign exchange in the market.

Following the decision by the Swiss National Bank to discontinue the minimum exchange rate and the decision by the European Central Bank to launch an expanded asset purchase programme, there has been a considerable inflow of foreign currency.

The traditional monetary policy instruments of the fixed exchange rate policy are interventions in the foreign exchange market and influencing the interest rate spread relative to the euro area. Danmarks Nationalbank's interventions in the foreign exchange market amounted to kr. 106.3 billion in January and the rate on certificates of deposit has been lowered several times. Additionally, the Ministry of Finance has decided to suspend the issuance of domestic and foreign bonds until further notice, based upon the recommendation of Danmarks Nationalbank. These measures have been taken with the intention to inhibit the inflow of foreign exchange.

"The fixed exchange rate policy is an indispensable element of economic policy in Denmark – and has been so since 1982. Danmarks Nationalbank has the necessary instruments to defend the fixed exchange rate policy for as long as it takes", says Lars Rohde.

Lars Rohde continues: "There is no upper limit to the size of the foreign exchange reserve. The sole purpose of the monetary policy instruments is maintaining a stable krone exchange rate against the euro. The revenue of Danmarks Nationalbank is positively affected by the increase of the foreign exchange reserves."

The comments following that post are priceless. People's brains are starting to short-circuit from repeating conflicting talking points that they hear in the media. Fascinating actually.

We are still on "The Official Mastercoin Foundation, Master Protocol & Mastercoin Thread"

If you don't have a platform to discuss on, you could at least "rebrand" this thread as well and maybe make a more decent main post..

And you still have the mastercoin logo as your avatar.

And i'm not going to replace it.

Don't, I still love what the original stands for Mish Smiley always thought the design was awesome

Do I have this right? If so let's let the idea sit for a second: the Tether project basically consolidates all KYC/AML requirements of crypto businesses that desire to work in USD to one place

I really don't get it, do people not value their life's character that much to throw it away on a scam? For what?

And so I learn Simon abuses Xanax (has a prescription--same thing) so that explains part of it.
I couldn't understand this too, when I was younger and inexperienced. After few years on Bitcointalk I started to better understand the psychology of the hustlers that associate here. The old saying is "it is not about the catch, it is about the chase". For a hustler the good hustle is better than orgasm, money is just a nice thing on a side.

Yup this is exactly how I see it. HF really produced very little things of value in the end.

What was the percentage of customers that actually got a working product? 5%? 10%? 2%?

Was there even a single customer that got all of what they purchased, including the MPP machines?

You could ask Cypherdoc he might know.

He supposedly got something. Not sure if he got MPP's though.

This company was one bullet I dodged as I was going to purchased two baby jets (or whatever they were called) in August 2013 and because one of my computers/wallets was acting up which disallowed me to go through with the purchase I never lost a penny to these thieves.



Lucky!!
