Portnoy went full cryptonian with twitter trolling... "I will save #bitcoin and #Crypto if they ask me nicely."
What a moron.

That guy really believe his own hype doesn’t he. Who even is he & where does his sense of self importance come from?

He’s just another guy who will be made to look stupid like many before him.

Yep... just another narcissistic windbag who thinks himself an "expert"... like Vinny Lingham. Remember that guy and his whole 5 seconds of crypto notoriety?

All these douchebags need to learn to sit down, take a BTC long position, shut the fk up, and fking learn something about BitcoinTM. And stay the fk away from shitcoins.

WTC towers did fall because of the plane crashes, no matter if the direct cause was because of the structural damage/shock, the fire, any subsequent explosions or a combination of it all. It was NOT demolished by the government. That does not make any fucking sense from any logical point of view.

The Mandalay Bay mass shooting was also not a conspiracy of any sort.

That being said: Epstein did NOT kill himself.. or at least not without outside "help". But that doesn't mean EVERYTHING is a conspiracy.

It's ok man... nutildah and sirazimuth agree with you and are here to help.

I'm not saying I'm particularly smarter than anybody, but I know enough to recognize and respect the diligence involved in mastering a discipline as opposed to reading a book or watching a YouTube documentary then resting on the laurels of having convinced oneself that they know things.

But yet you dismiss the work and conclusions of 3,000 architects and engineers that have mastered a discipline that you haven't?

My problem is I have a scientific background and appreciate little details like evidence and logic before jumping to conclusions that serve to reconfirm my world view. If that renders me a normie NPC then call me Wojak.

So Epstein really did kill himself, eh? I guess without evidence to the contrary, you believe he most certainly did.  Tongue

Here, have another blue pill. Nom nom.  Cheesy

It's very possible Epstein killed himself, yes. There was not getting out for him, so it would be a very natural thing to do.

Amazing how he could actually do that in a cell they said he had nothing to commit suicide with, or to even hurt himself with. And on supposed suicide watch too. Incredible. Such skill.

My personal favorite is WTC7 hitting the ground at freefall speed. After 9/11 we were called conspiracy theorists for more than a decade before supposed logic started to creep in. Still, ask someone how that day happened and I bet you get some jihad box cutter story, flight manuals and recovered passports.  Mistrust of government and powerful elites (they) is learned.


https://www.ktva.com/story/41015153/fire-did-not-cause-world-trade-center-building-7-collapse-uaf-study-suggests

Yep, over 3,000 architects and engineers ran hundreds of computer simulations, but could not replicate what the MSM/ U.S. govt. claims happened to WTC7.

But the npcs don't care.

Also, my personal favorite is that reporter filmed on live TV saying "Just in, we've gotten reports now that Tower 7 has fallen! Tower 7 is down!"... literally with Tower 7 still standing in the background behind her. It fell like 5 minutes after she said that. Tongue

Again, the npcs don't care.

As for the mainstream media's "hit pieces," they print what sells. Obviously there is some public interest in bitcoin, so they print things that they think their readers will want to read. And not all pieces in the media about bitcoin are bad -- several also hail its innovative features and cover it in a positive light.
Yeah right, about 1 article out of every 100 might.  Roll Eyes

https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoin-obituaries/

Here's the problem: you are relying upon too many unknowns to arrive at a conclusion. It's a hallmark behavioral trait of conspiracy theorists.

And I guess you're one of those normies in life that dismiss pretty much everything you don't agree with as a "conspiracy theory", and label anyone that believes in something you don't as a "conspiracy theorist".  Roll Eyes

It's a hallmark behavioral trait of an npc.

Just do me a favor; take another blue pill, and blissfully get on with your life.  Tongue

Btw, why are you into Bitcoin again? Why not just trust stonks and the good old USD?
1909  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: August 23, 2020, 07:56:37 PM
Who indeed controls the stock market? Give me a name. Just saying "they" is what makes you come across as a conspiracy theorist.

Did you know: 85% of equities/commodities are owned directly by wealthy sovereigns, central banks, investment banks, Wall Street investment funds, hedge funds, etc. Only 15% of those same investment vehicles are owned by mom and pop retail investors (actually not even owned; leased is a more accurate term...they don't really own shit). And as the Baby Boomers continue to retire and sell off their stock investments to live, and as more corporations continue to buy back their stock with freely printed money, that 15% figure is going to continue to shrink.

As if the crypto market doesn't have as much or even more potential for corruption? It's delusional to believe otherwise, just as its delusional to think the entire crypto market represents more than a blip on the overall size of trade-able markets.

Total market cap of all cryptos: $0.363 trillion
Total market cap of 3 biggest US stock exchanges: $35.503 trillion

So without adding in commodities and other stock markets, this is about 1% the size of the NYSE, NASDAQ and OTCQX. Adding in the rest of the top 25 global stock markets raises the total to $78 trillion; adding conservative estimates of the following:

Gold = $9 trillion
Silver = $6 trillion
Oil = $4 trillion
Everything else = $3 trillion

= $100 trillion dollar total trade-able market. So we're now down to the crypto market representing 0.363% of this amount.

Yes I know this. But it's growing bigger and bigger with each passing year. It's gaining in popularity. And those other markets you listed? Gold, Silver, Oil, and everything else? Those are markets that the Cabal controls. Bitcoin, they don't control. And it irritates the shit out of Wall Street.

If not, then why would the likes of Jamie Dimon or Warren Buffett even bother to comment on Bitcoin at all? Why wouldn't they just ignore it entirely? Why would the Mainstream Media spend so much time and effort, year after year, publishing hit piece upon hit piece against Bitcoin if it weren't such a threat?

I looked up his Twitter account today, and now I totally get it.

He's a plant. A shill for the Wall Street stonk day tarders.

No, no no no. You're letting your penchant for conspiracy theories get in the way of rational thinking. The PTB that might be capable of manipulating the stock market don't give two fucks about bitcoiners. This guy is just another Twitter personality who has a semi-interesting style and a shitload of fake followers. Think about it: the entire crypto market is just a drop in the ocean of the three major stock markets. Nobody in charge there gives a single solitary fuck about bitcoin.

Sorry but I completely, 1000% disagree.

The corrupt Wall Street trading cabal (of which Jim Cramer is a shill mouthpiece for) is worried about Bitcoin. Not about it taking over the world or anything like that, but because retail investors and traders are excited about trading/hodling in a digital commodity that the Cabal themselves cannot control. Because it's too late for them to come in and corner the Bitcoin market.

1. They cannot corner the Bitcoin market, i.e. gain 90%+ control over minted bitcoin, because the majority of mined bitcoin is already in the hands of "not-Wall Street". And the hodlers are spread out all over the world. This happened in the beginning years when Wall Street was laughing at and largely ignoring Bitcoin as a penny stock scam. They didn't even understand what it was exactly or why it should have value.

2. Bitcoin has to be mined by miners. The Cabal cannot artificially inflate it vis a vis just print more bitcoin, do phantom bitcoin, or fractional reserves (that last task is in the hands of the crypto exchanges, ones that they cannot control).

3. Because they cannot get huge, significant amounts of bitcoin for free, they cannot massively short it either.

4. They are accustomed to using massive leverage to move stonk markets (think 1000X or more), but that type of leverage is not permitted by the crypto exchanges because of risk management.

5. If they want huge amounts of bitcoin to play with, they have to buy it OTC or on the market exchanges like everyone else. And the amount they want has to be available. This is NOT how Wall Street does things.

So therefore they have little interest in Bitcoin itself, other than Bitcoin is luring Average Joes away from the corrupt stonk markets that they DO INDEED control. And this irritates them beyond belief. They literally WANT Average Joes back into the corrupt stonk market where they can rekt them all day long.

That Portnoy video.
What a newb.
Does he really expect the stock market to just keep going up forever?
Man, I wouldn't wish I'll on anybody but I got to say that I am looking forward to the day he gets mindrusted good and proper.
He will not only miss out on an opportunity of a lifetime (Bitcoin) but is going to get royally rekt when the stock market comes crashing down around him.

I looked up his Twitter account today, and now I totally get it.

He's a plant. A shill for the Wall Street stonk day tarders.

This was all just a stunt for him to try and convince Bitcoiners to leave crypto and get into stonks.

Here's a video of him, notice him buddying up with ol' Jim Cramer:

And here's another photo of him with ol' Jim Cramer:

He couldn't handle crypto for what, like a few days? Now he's saying he only invests in stonks because "stonks only go up."

Holy shit, not only is he going to get crushed one day, but so will all of his followers.

When recessions/depressions hit small, rural towns, the people just suffer quietly...but not much else changes on the outside.

When recessions/depressions hit large metro cities, all hell breaks loose into Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome style lawless shit.

This is why they couldn't pay me enough to live in metro cities like LA, NYC, or Chicago. Fucking concrete jungles with no beauty, just filth and crime always simmering beneath the surface.

Of course, this will all change as Bitcoin’s mechanics continue to play out, making Number go Up.  In time, everyone will have to face the painful realization that their reasons for writing off Bitcoin were wrong.  Because of the dynamics at work with the yuppie class, it may take longer for them to come around to Bitcoin than with most new technologies or trends.

Great article, but I believe this writer is incorrect about this quote:

Quote
As an aside, I went to the best business school in the world and they didn’t teach us anything about that.  For what it’s worth, I don’t think that this was a knowing or malicious omission.  I think this battle was won 100-years ago, in Keynes’ day, with the self-serving support of governments weighing heavily on the outcome.  Which is to say, my professors learned from Keynesians who themselves learned from Keynesians.  The business leaders and educators of today are completely unaware that they are passing on the shoddy propaganda version of monetary theory as a result of the largely successful ideological extermination of sound monetary theory.

Au contraire, I think the business school professors know exactly what they are doing with their constant Keynesian propaganda. They know exactly what sound money is, but know the business world is now fueled on cheap debt and money printing.

For me when BTC forked by changing the protocol, that left BCH as Bitcoin to me. When BCH forked by changing the protocol that left BSV as Bitcoin to me. I'm not choosing to follow an alt coin, or whatever. I am simply staying with the Bitcoin that I beleive in, regardless of squabbling over the name, the ticker, and price and all sorts of other such things that do not actually define what Bitcoin is.

And on, and on, and on... like a rat jumping from one burning, sinking ship to another.

Maybe one day you'll find the elusive "real Bitcoin". Hey...you smell that, sgbett? BSV is already on fire and sinking fast. I hope they do another fork soon so you can jump ship again.  Wink

Meanwhile, BitcoinTM will live on and prosper.

At the end of the day sgbett, value is driven by belief, and belief is a popularity contest.

Sorry to break it to you, but BCH and BSV lost that popularity contest long ago to crazy antics and bullshit fraud from the likes of Roger Ver, Calvin Ayre, CSW, and the loonie developers. Both have been judged in the court of popular opinion and found guilty of scammery. The reality is that no one held high opinion of either BCH or BSV from the very start (except a scant few crazies such as yourself).

If you still hold any BSV, keep dreaming the dream I guess.  Roll Eyes But it'll never ever happen. Like ever.

The fact that you claim to be 90%+ in Bitcoin, and have been all along, just proves that you have always known the truth.
