Hello, let me make this public.
kujoking7 has actually asked for 40 BTC from me privately, at a 20% rate. That is our current loan, not the 18 BTC.

I'm afraid I'm too emotionally attached to trade Bitcoin properly.
Me too. You know, back when I first got into Bitcoinica, I got zhou's $1 and started trading. Made 44 cents. I thought "whoa I am a good trader." I bought and sold with equal willingness because I didn't have an emotional attachment to a single dollar at all. Then I put in a few hundred, lost it, put in more, lost that too, etc. Several times... Since then, I have had nothing on Bitcoinica. My forum posts, which are pretty accurate, are based on analyses conducted with no position at all in the market. Whenever I actually try to trade, I fail. @Goomboo: Excellent post.

There was once a lost transaction that sought to bring down the Bitcoin network, but the heroic actions of the Founders stopped it. It was the largest transaction ever to be recorded, but nobody knows of it anymore.
true story.

You'd think that simple strategies like this would not work. They actually do.

Mathematically, you are correct. Psychologically, people are more comfortable when they can see 75% of their deposit at any time. Also, I was hoping to allow more people to participate, but someone grabbed up all my space already . Heh, that's interesting... never thought of lending from that point of view before.

mmhm. you advise other people to stay out, but you short... manipulation goes both ways.
Expressing your opinion in a speculation forum can hardly be considered manipulation. And it is in no way nearly as manipulative as those on and off bid-walls - in fact, me disclosing my position probably makes me more honest and non-manipulative than most people around. Besides, telling people to stay out is exactly that. I could also suggest them to think about joining me in my shorts anywhere near $6 and above if they are willing to take the risk of being Zhoutonged at a short-term spike-up if that sounds more preferable to you? Either way, with me advising them to stay out I ultimately believe in a lack of substantial upward buying pressure which will inevitably make prices go South again - hence my short position. So no worries, I got my story and leverage straight. No, you misunderstood me. You said (1) The market was obviously manipulated (2) No one should be in the market because nobody can predict the actions of a Manipulator holding it at artificial prices (3) You shorted However, what if the Manipulator goes the other way and pushes the price up? You're screwed.

notme: If people lend 100 BTC to you, and you keep 75 in reserve and 25 in your account with <censored>, then would it not be equivalent to offering a 4% weekly interest rate for 25 BTC? Why don't you just do that, and not hold the other 75?

I wish this ponzi had a jackpot that I could snipe.

there's one big manipulator and a host of smaller ones. The Great Manipulator is so obvious -- he instantly moved the ask side from ~20k to ~80k BTC and the bid side suffered an opposite fate.

Alright, it's closed. Let this message be recorded as a note that I, as an individual, have reached my limit for loans for the months of January and February, unless circumstances change, and I will no longer be accepting loans. This includes ones from my other lenders. I look forward to dealing with you in March.

Whenever I see a post whose subject line says Bitcoin won't work, I automatically know their post count is in the single digits before I even look.
By the time their post count reaches the triple digits, they're converted and enthusiastic.
Welcome to the community in advance.
haha! every once in a while you see these geniuses popping up in the newb forum thinking they know the answer to everything. No offense to OP, but I've seen it a dozen times.

Next time I'll add a smiley face to emphasize the intended tone of my previous post.
A little smiley can go a long way in avoiding conflict.
So true...

I have this vision of a war room with a huge wall sized monitor, several operator terminals buzz with activity.
On the big monitor is a bid ask table like the Clark Moody interface, the in house positions are in grey text and all other positions are yellow.
most of the text is grey.
At home I decide to place an ask near the current price for 30.7 BTC, suddenly a new yellow entry appears on the big display...30.7, the operators pay it no heed, they are out for bigger game.
haha... i can imagine it too. The Manipulator himself is probably imagining it, while he gloats over his profits sitting in his mom's basement. He thinks, "One day, my manipulation will make me so rich that I will cash out and build that dream home with the war room in it."
