The strange thing is that troll boxes usually thrive and in BTC-e's case you had to actually have money on the site to be able to post. Perhaps it's because of the increased potential for pumping and dumping and scaring people.

They should experiment with a live messaging feature, not that I want them to succeed.

If they removed the spam there wouldn't be anything left even though if I were Yobit it would be causing me physical pain to actually pay these fucking dunderheads for their 'hard work'.

Something has to snap soon. It'll be an object lesson in why buying your way to community success never works. It would be interesting to see what a non paying week would look like but I guess most of them don't understand Russian or English so probably won't notice.

I can think of a couple of people who were severely fucked up by it, as in the lights being on but no one really being home any more. They went from bright young things to people who sit in their bedrooms and rarely open their mouths. One turned out like that after being dosed once. The other caned it for a few weeks and never came back either.

They were possibly predisposed to psychiatric problems, but I've always been a bit amazed at how willing people are to tamper with their infinitely delicate brain chemistry. I'll never touch it.

Not my knowledge but it would be a pretty short thread and maybe not a great idea to give people a false sense of security. If I were on an exchange that had any hint of KYC I'd do it. The middle ground of waiting to have it sprung on you is not a reassuring place to be.

I've never heard of Coinbase doing that. You're either verified or you're not which to me is vastly more preferable than being kept in no man's land.

They won't tell you why your account is frozen and the likelihood is OP will be told to withdraw, go away and not come back. They won't lose any money.

But that's all he's got. He's would need to start from scratch to put together more skills than simply waiting to unleash one huge punch. Most of his matches were a waiting game until that moment can happen. Since he didn't get started until 20 and is now 34 it would be pretty miraculous for him to be reborn as a fully rounded boxer.

If he retains his main trainer then it's clear he's not very interested in changing or learning and the talk of going out on his shield is daffy. I would've had a corner clear out just like Fury.

I've no doubt he'll be sharper next time. That may not make him any better a boxer.

Well, according to some news outlets Wilder has said there's going to be a third fight. He's also fired the guy who threw in the towel/saved his bacon. It's talking about a July date. The cause of his wobbly legs was his unusual ring entry costume according to him. Fair enough.

Many people on this thread will have been locked into BTC for a long, long time. You cannae blame them for wanting to get partially off the ride after this much time.

I would vastly prefer to spend than sell but for the things most desire - property, erectile dysfunction implants, hotrod mobility scooters - that's going to be hard going for a lengthy while yet.

I would really love to know if any non micro earning zombie clicked on it, had a browse through it and thought 'hey, this is some quality shit. No way am I returning to Bitcointalk now.'

They've got a pretty narrow window to haul it out of shitsville before they stop paying and the place turns into a ghost town. There's a million dead forums for every thriving one. I can well imagine popping back there next year and finding nothing but an unmoderated scattering of penis pill ads.

Not a single Mt Gox user has been paid back yet ergo it might still be a long, long, long way from being over.

I wonder whether it would have gone better in another legal system or whether this would be the same wherever.

Yes.

The purchase of several big presents for ME.

The alternative would possibly have been him finishing the fight as a twitching vegetable. It was a pretty emphatic victory. The first fight raised questions. This one answered them for good.

I'm sure a third fight would do fine. It wouldn't have anywhere near the same urgency and drama.

They've stated that all the costs have been met, them selling off vast chunks to meet them is what people enjoyed blaming large price falls on. What's left over is what will be going back to people. I guess that depends on the outcomes of these lawsuits though.

Exchange owners of all people should surely know that predicting is a dumb business, and they make money no matter what the market conditions are anyway.

If I had a public platform I would go no further than things like 'I think Bitcoin is nice.'

I'm sure there'll be interest and no doubt a boatload of money to be made but I can't see the interest being at a similar level. A third fight pops when the previous two left the questions unanswered.

Both this and Ruiz answered the question in the second event. In terms of actual narrative a third one would be pretty redundant.

It's free and legal high. I was watching Cape Fear with someone after not having slept for a few days. I had to be talked out of calling the police because I thought it was happening in real time in front of me.

You've got to hand it to them for their resilience but no one should be going anywhere near them if they can help it.

They've had giant hacks, banking failures, murky ownership and jurisdiction and there's got to be some targets on their backs from the legal profession.

They feel to me like one of the very last holdouts of crypto's wild west phase. They either need to go fully legit or go away. They don't have much of a future as they are and I wouldn't want my money caught up in them when the plates stop spinning.

I don't think they scam individual customers but they have no problem sailing very close to the wind and don't seem to have a problem hiding their troubles. You won't find out you're fucked until long after they've actually fucked you or they've been fucked.

On top of that their market position is no longer dominant. Traders had to be there if they wanted the action. That's no longer the case. Why bother taking the risk?

Aye. Curtis Green, the bloke who was 'assassinated' by the bent DEA agent by being photographed with chicken soup on his chin and pretending to be dead was busted having been sent a kilo of coke. Probably by the DEA though.

I seem to recall some pretty high turnovers from real people.

The amounts don't really matter, it all comes from the same source, but possibly the same DEA guy was proposing the Masters of Silk Road or something that was going to be some type of wholesale operation. It was probably total hogwash but was under consideration.

I'm sure he did. But his ethos was also about selling things that didn't hurt or harm other people. That's not to mean the drugs themselves, that's on whoever takes it and go for it if that's your thing, but a kilo of coke or heroin has more horror mixed into it than the stolen items he wouldn't allow sold.

Hooking people up with others who make acid, meth, speed, MDMA etc. is fine with me. The other stuff did not come out of some guy's garage.

That too. I am an incel, straight edge and will shortly be flight shaming everyone on here too, that's as soon as I get to the bottom of this QAnon stuff.
