CryptoKitties - the literal reincarnation of the Bean Babies investing bubble, just in digital form and sped up 100X faster ... which is even worse. History repeats. <sigh> I found the agenda for tomorrow's conference in Toronto. https://fintechcan.ca/agenda/Just in case anybody was preparing to slog it up to the lumber colony. Panel #5 - Initial Token Offerings: Alan Wunsche @ TokenFunder, Eric Lifson @ Skrumble, Hartej Sawhney @ Hosho, Alan Safahi @ ZED, Tone Vays (Moderated by Brian Phan @ U.Cash) |

In all honesty this why I thought you were a r0ach alt, before I knew you. Slightly too Nazi-sympathetic for me. Anyway I've learned to not be 'triggered', as the kids say. Trolls will always take the temperature of the room and play just below the line.
One thing I've observed is that the European posters are triggered a lot more easily by the neo-nazi-ist stuff. The posters who I know/suspect to be American on this thread don't seem to be bothered. Maybe there's still some collective trauma among Europeans after basically having half the continent destroyed. Or it could be that we're a bunch of Trump-voting nutjobs. Well, one of my problems has always been that I'm Canadian. I have noticed |

You are delusional. Click on any random Zerohedge article and there are 500 people typing the exact same stuff as me. From the years 5000 BC to 1950 any normal human male sounds like me too. People parroting Marxism in the year 2018 are neither normal or good, they are the dysfunctional, abnormal outliers. I don't come here to read Zerohedge. There's a backlash against globalization and multiculturalism. I understand it. There were winners and there are losers and it's an interesting turn of events. But genocide seems like a bit much. No? |

There a couple of possibilities here.
We either have a minimum standard of behaviour (no genocide allowed) or we can fork the thread. I don’t doubt our good moderator has the best of intentions but it is embarrassing to be associated with some of this stuff, even if only anonymously. Ain’t nobody got time for Stormfront Word Salad.
You seem to be letting them get to you. Moderator (thread owner) seems to have a way more liberal non-deletion policy than many would prefer, but I think that he is living up to what he said that he would do, and perhaps even better than expected... ... Yeah, of course a few deletions of posts, here and there would send a decent signal to some of the off-topic hate-speech, and I am sure that he does some of that, but for the most part, it is likely better to error on the side of non-deletion and each of us can decide the extent to which we partake or even acknowledge the nonsense... And, by the way, regarding price... not a whole hell-of-a-lot of action there, recently..... price explosion imminent? Up, down or sideways... ? Edit: Half an hour later... we looking like the start of a little bit of UP? Would be nice to see another $1k up... .. which would start to get some juices flowing, no? You're pretty much spot on. Personally, I'm pretty hard to offend, so posts here rarely bother me. Also, I do try to err on the side of free speech. I would encourage everyone to permanently ignore offensive posters, and not to feed trolls (and grow some thicker skin). OTOH, I recognize the thread has been getting derailed pretty badly over the past week or so. Maybe I've been a little too lax? Regardless, I've been deleting some newer troll posts.  In all honesty this is why I thought you were a r0ach alt, before I knew you. Slightly too Nazi-sympathetic for me. Anyway I've learned to not be 'triggered', as the kids say. Trolls will always take the temperature of the room and play just below the line. |

Ain't it funny what you can get away with saying when you're a sassy fag tho.

Yes the ongoing levels of racism are disappointing.
I bet you are one of ((( them )))  My real name is Rosenberg Waterstein. Do your worst. |

Agreed, so much shit being spewed on here. I'm guessing mostly teenagers who live in a basement and think they have a handle on geopolitics. At least the trolls of the past used to be entertaining. I'm out of here for a few months. Have fun arguing with each other about Russia and anything other than the BTC price. Adios. Quite a few earlier posters totally disengaged long ago. It really isn't difficult to disrupt a discussion thread. The Sewerwater Foundation of cuckoldry has spoken.

The latest blockchain conference in Shanghai was raided by police. Too many fraudsters were spoiling the bunch

Good mention from IMF head and a praise to Sharia Law possible catalyst to recent price action? Or the tax day theory?
7900 seems like pretty strong support imo
Interesting thing about the IMF's recent support of blockchain is that the head of the IMF is advised by a french libertarian, Gaspard Koenig. Gaspard just recently joined Blue Frontiers as an adviser and has been a big supporter of seasteading since he first heard about it. I don't know who this is but I think you have to consider the possibility that he's just in it for the dancing girls. .. |

Sweden doesn't care about your citizenship, anyone can own property, even people without citizenship. You would have to pay real estate tax, but that tax had a cap of 914 USD last year. And in many cases you pay less, it's adjusted for inflation yearly. And everybody speaks english.
It's also Sweden. Also being overrun by muslim immigrants that are increasingly incompatible with civilized societies, but the Swedes are so cucked, they're bending over and taking it, while saying "Thank you. Can I have another ?" I can't believe what's happening over there in Europe. It's terrifying to me. Are you terrified, B'awb? Nah. Pretty chill actually. Think I'm finally starting to catch up on sleep and starting to slowly work on personal passion projects. I have faith Bitcorn is going to grow nicely this season. I'm looking forward to hearing them. Hope you'll share. |

Tone Vays is worth a listen to. He hates the ICO's https://youtu.be/fODj_TfAEuI?t=20m31sEdit: this is from 2017 and it's probably been posted already. It's probably a repost. What can I say. Don't expect as much from the night shift.  |

Here's a live cam of my front yard. Scroll down. https://www.c2skykitecenter.com/ Plenty of sun, exercise, cheap food, english (vinglish) and simple living. Speaking of exercise.... look for the orange kite soon. Very cool! |

Soooo... noone has found the perfect country to spend the millions yet, no?
Elwar is still building it. Here's some thoughtful entertainment on building a community. Check out "Wild, wild country" aired on netflix. It's the conspiratorial saga of Rajneeshpuram (Osho) community as it attempted self governance in the 80's in outback Oregon. Surprisingly its led me to consider the importance of governance. I'll take a look. I recently watched a show called Jungletown about the recreational colonization of a place called Kalu Yala that convinced me of the importance of despotic opportunists. |

Come to Thailand. It won´t be worse than this. If you avoid the girls, you´re home free !
And for half the money !
And you can drive around on a Moped, the whole year. That´s what i´m doing.
I´m blessed. No Joke !
Guys, i really can´t see, why you should end your life in such negative places, pack your things, even your family, and move !
I'm actually heading to Thailand tomorrow to stay for about 2 months. Will be mostly in the Bangkok area. Bangkok is not my cup of tea, i´m more of a beach guy. Stay safe ! Stay out of jail. Local customs regarding things are probably a lot...different. |

I am pretty sure you can game the tax systems by “earning” all your income while offshore or in a tax free jurisdiction and not staying in any particular Western country for more than 179 days [does not work for US citizens]
So fly to Dubai to cash out your BTC and then go skiing for a couple of months, rinse repeat.
The problem that I have is specifically with owning property in that kind of situation. I don't want to go from hotel to hotel or Airbnb to Airbnb for the travel part. But if I could just own two houses and have each of them set up as a fully functional base then I would be perfectly happy to just fly over from one to the other every 6 months. Just haven't found anything specific regarding this edge case yet. Yup, 6 months here 6 there is pretty ideal. I've been doing perpetual summer for the better part of 20 years and its worked out very well. Depending on the country, ownership of land or house can get tricky, especially in SE Asia it has a particular set of headaches. I prefer to rent/lease long term in Asia which also gives me the option to pick up and go much easier if needed and own in the countries which I have citizenship. Just looked out the window. I envy your lifestyle. Haha I see that your neck of the woods is ankle deep in shit. Disgusting, really. I was depressed by the 12C and fog here, but now I'm laughing a little. thanks  It’s a desolate, godless moonscape, totally uninhabitable. If we had dancing girls they’d be eaten by street-wolves. |
