You passed that minimum months ago? Do you want a goddamn prize?
my prize is watching you get butthurt over forum rules and baby pictures...that shit is better than any trophy.   |

Do you feel that post advances the conversation, other than giving me an excuse to make another post in order to inch closer towards the minimum requirement?
If by "advancing the conversation", you mean making fun of people acting like whiny children over having to make 5 posts, then yes, i advanced it quite nicely. as a side note, i passed that minimum months ago. since my post brought you so much joy; here's another pic of a newbie discussing forum rules, just for you buddy:  your welcome. |

His weary eyes reflected the dim glare of his laptop as he glanced down at the coffee that had turned cold long ago.
"Shit."
He hadn't had time to taste it, he'd been noisily tapping away on the keyboard for hours. Gaining control of the major exchanges hadn't come easy, but the work paid off, and he now had access to every bitcoin being bought and sold on the open market. It was another layer of dominance over the system, and that filled him with an almost primal level of satisfaction.
Part of him was tempted to cash it all out now. He paused with his hands hovering over the keyboard.
I should just empty all the accounts and run with the money.
He sighed, brushed back his sweat-matted hair, and began typing again. He hadn't gotten to this point by acting like an amateur. Stealing the money outright would be quicker, but more risky. He also knew that the real money came from controlling the trading, and if he was smart about it, he could keep the money rolling in for a very long time.
It wasn't easy work, though. There's a lot to keep in mind when you control an entire micro-economy. His programming skills combined with a healthy trust fund had made it easy to corner the market at first, but the market was growing. It had become unruly and unpredictable like a caged tiger, and it was threatening to break free from his control.
So, like so many other nights, he spends tonight hunched over his keyboard. No time to sleep now, there are new trade and arbitrage bots to code. His hands move deftly across the keyboard as his thoughts drift back to what he read on a forum earlier in the day. One of the members had somehow stumbled across some of his handy work, and had whipped the rest of the forum up into quite a frenzy. They even came up with a cute nickname for him.
The Manipulator, he chuckled, I like it.

wait.... you people actually think someone is getting paid to bash bitcoin? seriously?
ok i'll bite....lets see how deep the rabbit hole goes.......
who is paying people to bash bitcoin? cia? illuminati? the angry ghost of 2pac?
why would anyone pay someone else to "professionally" take down bitcoin? did someone forget to give the paypal mafia thier protection money?

Is the social contract of the USA not the US constitution?
social contract is a philosophical concept and/or political theory, not a legal document, so no. |
|
|
|
I've never signed nor recognized such contract and yet they force me to give them money.
apparently, you dont understand the term social contract. whether you want to admit it or not, you reap the benefits of government provided services, so you have to pay the price for them. |
|

Despite whatever privilege you think your government has, if someone (regardless of their title) comes to you and demands that you relinquish your property to them when they have no contract with you to do so, is coercion and plunder. Look thru the veil of obfuscation for a moment and step back and take a bird's-eye view of it. Now imagine you and two other people in the room with you. They could form a government. Why on earth should they ever have any greater permission to relieve you of your property than anybody else in the room?
They do have a contract with me. its called a social contract. I expect the government to provide roads, schools, police, fire dept, military protection, care and support to the poor and disadvantaged, mediate legal disputes, regulate food and drugs, and enforce workplace safety conditions (among other things). they expect me to pay taxes to help pay for those services, which i do happily. |

What you mean to say is that you feel less guilty stealing 9% of someone's money if they have a lot of it.
no. no i don't. taxes aren't stealing. |
