These transactions dried up in due course of time, or at least various of the here presented. Whether or not this was a result of alarm bell, mechanism upgrade or migration, oversight and/or regulations, higher authority, it remains a mystery to the public.

However, one aspect of the above mechanism cannot be highlighted enough, therefore *kick*:

If actual trades are involved, it would be a false increased (perception) of trading volume. This of course happens with as good as every asset, but it may be difficult to point out the involved bots/parties/spheres due to the obfuscation of what/who is what/who that is inherent to all assets.

For if this mechanism is a 'natural' one, then why has it not been properly investigated and documented by involved parties (trading markets). The same would apply for it being an 'anomaly'. This topic -with nobody answering to this day- might require further digging, to make sure that fair dealings are not compromised.

One might suggest that the transactions are to maintain the balance/liquidity of involved markets, as if mechanism was 'authorized', but if indeed so then the transactions would likely be composed differently and there would be documentation of the procedure(s), validation guidelines, et cetera, which would simply explain all this.

Time to buy into the dip again it seems.

Another perspective:

The dollar does not really weaken in regard to BTC, due to the integration of $$ tokens (usdt, usdc). The dollar is in that sense 'diversified' to that extent that the definition of weak needs to be revised, also when speaking of weak in general (vs other currencies, flows, markets). The dollar is only perceived as weak from the archaic point of view. In the new perspective, the dollar is as weak/strong as those parts of its economy which it supports (holds good relationships with).

The chart shows that the current cycle of ltc trading / volume pumping* might end soon. There has been no alteration in the behavior of some very large wallets/bots. If no need hype is commenced, then one more round and LTC can be drained.

Hope not though, and I bet someone several parties still have something up their sleeve.

If you like to take risks, these days might be a good time to buy (I will).

I need to wait a few days to be able to check some things, my bank account is empty  -_-'

In the end this is all legit, so it will be impossible to put any real claim of wrongdoing on it.  It might be that the only clue the future gives about what happens in the company is by the movement of their offices and assets. It is interesting to follow this though, because the nature of (white collar) fiscal fraud is that it tends to remain ahead of the rules.

How does one stay ahead of the rules?

It's not even an eyewash, because mr. Kavaliauskas remains a sitting board member of the bank. That can be a legitimate way to structure one's interest in several parties. However, there is much more to this. Ask yourselves, what is this Lewben group?

What are we seeing here? A company?

The trade register in The Netherlands holds several entries related to the Lewben group, of which the most notable are probably the holdings, https://www.kvk.nl/zoeken/?source=all&q=lewben&start=0&site=kvk2014

Here's the main registrant's address / office seat:

https://www.instantstreetview.com/@52.365573,4.891106,343.9h,20.58p,1z

I can tell you right now.

This is textbook tax evasion.

There are several routes, but it will probably work like this:

- Company comes here and registers a holding or a similar construction

- Company uses a mechanism in the taxation system that is called [deelnemersvrijstelling], which basically is the exemption from taxation (for the holding) if taxation is done already, in another jurisdiction for example. It is a mechanism to prevent double taxations when doing a lot of transactions between or within companies here that do international business.

- Company will then notify the tax collector of this, and show that they pay tax in The Cayman Islands, Malta, Cyprus or wherever. The tax over there just happens to be 0% or extremely extremely low.

Done.

100% legit, no questions asked.

k, I send you a reply by private message, but somehow I messed up the message. Gimme a minute :p

That's nice.

How about enlightening the folks here with the information to verify that claim?

Will the jackpot slot machine (and internal exchange etc) go up right after the ICO counter hits 0? Meaning like 5 days or so?

And what price will the jackpot be?

One might imagine the devastation of the effect that Tether can possibly bring by just taking a closer look at the BTC trading graphics/charts:

https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin/trading_exchanges#panel

33.3% of the trade will be the mere minimum that will be affected, and does yet not take into account the USD and Bitfinex (which are both tied to USDT in some sort) and the subsequent decline of as well Ethereum:

https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/ethereum/trading_exchanges#panel

Ethereum will be crippled if USDT fails, because not only is USDT entwined in 24.9% of all Ethereum trades, the effect is complementary to USDT affecting the underlying BTC price as well. ETH/BTC will drastically alter  when a run from tokens>eth>btc>fiat starts. Most ERC20 tokens might lose up most if not all their current value. Actually this drain of value from ERC20 tokens has been going on for some time already, very slowly, and with a subtle price pump now and then for the more "popular" tokens, to keep people believing in those ridiculous projects.

If you are currently investing in crypto and the only way to cash out is through Bitfinex (USD/USDT), it might be wise to reconsider the situation you are in, again. That exchange is the first one where things will start to fall apart if people make a run for their money. Remember how in real life even a small and seemingly insignificant bank could topple entire societies and economies worldwide some years ago? And remember that in crypto there are no rules!

These people that tell others to have good faith and that things are 100% well-organized, without any motivation to pursuit a more adequate answer, they are the same people that thrive in the absence of rules as always, namely idiots (the ones unintentional bringing harm to others) and criminals/mafia (the ones intentionally not caring for others being harmed).

Jackpot slot machine coming up soon right? Can't wait ^^

So how come you've only just registered?

Why not using your pro oldskool account and tell him how it's done?

Can you specify then what Tether did for the space? I'm not quiet sure (yet).

Especially the fact that Tether has been allowed to come into play is remarkable, because now we have:

- An ongoing bullish trend / increase in value
- "Experts" claiming crypto is secure and that the future will be great ("we're all becoming rich")
- The economy is slowing down / not picking up the right pace
- Increased influx of USD to pump the market (through USDT)
- Increased access to the crypto market for the public (through USDT, and crypto exchanges poppin' up like mushrooms)

Now let's take a look at the US housing bubble

- An ongoing bullish trend / increase in value
- "Experts" claiming that house prices are booming and real estate is good business ("we're all becoming rich")
- The economy is slowing down / not picking up the right pace
- Increased influx of USD to pump the market (through increased interest rates)
- Increased access to the market for the public (through subprime mortgages and loans/credit without collateral)

And here's the US derivatives bubble

- An ongoing bullish trend / increase in value
- "Experts" claiming that derivative are the next best thing and the market is safe ("we're all becoming rich")
- The economy is slowing down / not picking up the right pace
- Increased influx of USD to pump the market (too big to fail bailout)
- Increased access to the market for the public (loosening up regulations that allowed all kinds of derivatives, and the introduction of smartphone/browser stock trading applications)

It's a bit odd.

Since people cannot cash out USDT to USD, every USDT that is bought with USD represents $1 that will never leave the crypto market.

So when buying USDT with USD, no real value is added to the cryptomarket, and yet when USDT would "cease to exist" 2.5 billion USD will be gone from the crypto market. How? Because of the deception in how value is being defined and calculated. If something cannot be traded for $1, then why would it be worth $1?

The enormous false volume that moves around in circles each day in day out, the large proportion of fake coins/ico's, and Tether that is just still up and running...

as if the blockchain and crypto market are being used as some sort of testing ground.

I need the one armed bandit rolling at all times.

The slot machine isn't working for several days now.

Good work on what?

So if they put up those nice pictures again at the website you will all be okay again?

Viola operates in Ukraine as well? Or is that a different company?
