I'm not saying that there isn't a COVID-19 test, but I would not be surprised if they many places are just testing for coronavirus.

The media has even stopped referring to it as COVID-19 and are using the term "coronavirus disease". Is this just to cover their ass?

They're including people with a common cold in the results. Which are typically 20% positive.

According to the numbers on this article: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/03/26/us/coronavirus-testing-states.html
the rate of infection of those tested is 13.5%

Well below the normal 20% rate that people typically have of coronavirus.

They let those test numbers slip, nowhere else do they ever show the rate of infection. Only the "rising numbers" (as they test more people).

13.5% of people tested have a cold.

And when they die of a head injury, they do a quick PCR test on their blood. If they find the coronavirus. "They died a Coronavirus related death".

Non gun culture here too. That doesn't help when someone's breaking into your home.

The key for me here in Panama is not if I will run out of food, but that the many poor people nearby will run out of food. Then they will go searching. They already rioted in one town and cleared out a local grocery store. My friend was told at his building for everyone to park their cars in the parking garage at his building because thieves are breaking into cars.

Fortunately I was preparing for Thai hitmen to come so I am prepared. I may have to change my sleep schedule though.

The media manipulation throughout this whole thing has been ridiculous. What ever happened to "you can't shout 'fire' in a crowded theater"?

What will be the way forward to stop this crap? How do we decentralize the media and encourage truth instead of hype?



In what way do you think media should be telling "the truth instead of hype"?

Most I see being published are hard numbers of infections, deaths, ICU occupation levels, morgues being made from repurposed ice rinks, etc etc...

Do you think it would be better to censorship media? How would that be decentralisation?

Take this story for example:
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/coronavirus-teenager-death-california-health-insurance-care-emergency-room-covid-19-a9429946.html

"Coronavirus: Teenage boy whose death was linked to COVID-19 turned away from urgent care for not having insurance"


First of all...the mayor is doing an interview in front of a FEMA camp talking about this poor kid who died.

The kid went to a local private clinic, he didn't have insurance for the clinic so he was sent to the government hospital.

He had a heart attack (not a COVID-19 symptom) on the way to the hospital. The government hospital had him alive 6 hours before he died in the government hospital.

The article is filled with "implying" that he died from Corona virus. "The teen’s death comes amid a wave of reports about young victims suffering deadly symptoms from Covid-19"

Even though he didn't die of it. "Los Angeles’ County Department of Public Health later said the teen’s death was taken off a list of deaths associated with Covid-19 in the area."

Here they are trying to imply that healthy young people are dying from the virus, dancing around actually pointing to any evidence:
"Another New York-area nurse said: “What I really want the public to know is that the old and sick are not the only ones who are getting severely ill and dying from this virus. Both of my patients I took care of over the weekend were in their 30’s. Both with no known past medical history.”"....and? Recovered? You had young patients? then what?!?

Such bullshit. They are culpable in the destroying lives around the world.


What is my solution? No, not to censor. I don't suggest we outlaw the dollar when I advocate the far superior Bitcoin. I don't advocate we ban taxis when supporting Uber. I don't support banning current news sources but we need something to replace this centralized shit. Things like twitter and social media are helping. You can get tweets from people actually in the New York hospital tweeting about the fact that they're changing the death certificates of people who died of pneumonia or bronchitis to Corona virus.

We need a way to award people revealing factual, relevant truth to the world. Right now, only hype and sensationalism is rewarded with views and ad revenue.

I give this thing another week.

Italy numbers found to be fraudulent:
"anyone who dies is tested, and if coronavirus is present, the person is counted as a CORONAVIRUS DEATH, even if they died from cancer, or a head injury, or… seasonal H1N1 flu."

But where are the videos? If you know of any, please let me know to ease my confusion. This should be a common thing on Youtube.

I think the thing is its still relatively rare to the point where it hasn't affected many regular YouTubers. There are a few out there that I found quickly but they come in the form of news reports:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFLSG-7K3Tc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoTpRQtfnII
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAafDOqfN3M
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcb38Pbmmpw

Its definitely a newsworthy story so I'm not surprised that news stations everywhere are jumping at the chance to work patients ready to be video recorded into their reports.

Here's one from a patient in India (one of only 43 at the time) -- directly from his channel:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGqpoz56bS8

That's what I'm seeing. Just news channels saying "let's check in on a person in the hospital". That indian dude was alone in a hospital with like 20 beds, he said he was there getting tested because he felt sick.

When I was in Kuwait the locals told me about the news anchors before the first Iraq war and how they used to have to keep changing their camera angle with the Gulf behind them because the jet skiiers kept interrupting their shot as everyone was going on with their lives in Kuwait as if nothing was happening.

I saw firsthand in Thailand how horrible the news is and how it will make shit up.

Simple thing to just have a video (like that Indian dude, he said he was super bored...nothing to do, so pop open the cell phone and take video).
633  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 25, 2020, 05:28:50 PM
I'm no conspiracy theorist, I tend to want to see evidence before I even consider anything a possibility, but I tend to be open to see the evidence and make a decision for myself.

I believe there is a Corona virus out there. I believe people are getting sick from it. I believe people have died from it.

My question:
With all of the people that record video of every boring part of their day (planting flowers, eating dinner, walking the dog, etc.), why are there no videos of people in their hospital beds dealing with this virus?
A quick search of Youtube shows that there are several media videos of people talking about how they are sick, but no "Joe blow" sitting in his hospital bed talking about how much it sucks on his Youtube channel.

And on Facebook I see plenty of people talking about how "my friend's dad died from it" or "my friend is a doctor and he's overwhelmed", etc.

But where are the videos? If you know of any, please let me know to ease my confusion. This should be a common thing on Youtube.

I had troubles with my trezor in Thailand, I had the trezor but the backup codes were on the seastead. That's part of it, you need backups but what to do with the backups?

Fortunately I had a backup that I split among family members because all of my cryptosteel was on the seastead.


Elwar, are you talking about your seed key still on the seastead? If so, what happened to it? If the seastead has been confiscated by authorities, I hope you moved your coins to a new trezor.

Correct. Seed was on there. They had about 2 weeks to figure out what that piece of paper with a bunch of random words was for.

Fortunately I got all of my BTC off of it.


Rather than saying your funds are secure you should be fucking with them and saying that that was your only copy but its encoded so they will never get it. Let them jump through hoops for awhile. Cheesy

Yes, this is true. I had 2100 bitcoins in that cryptosteel wallet.

When I sue them (and I will), I will expect them to pay me back every satoshi. In bitcoin.

We should all be scared. Look at the charts for overall deaths in Europe.  Notice how many deaths there are of people 15-64 since 2020 started. Trying times my friends.




You are reading that right. Number of deaths the past few weeks is below the "Normal range".

Digital dollars? wtf is that nonsense why bother god you repltilian assholes or is that fucking racist too

edit sauce coindesk

https://www.coindesk.com/house-stimulus-bills-envision-digital-dollar-to-ease-coronavirus-recession

This is a bigger deal than anyone realizes. This is not a liability for the federal government. They are saying it's a liability for the Federal Reserve (not the government). This is creating money out of thin air and distributing it to people. It is not backed by anything.

Unlike QE, where they are buying assets and putting them on the fed balance sheet, you can't sell this to anyone in the future. Unlike anything else the fed has ever done, this is purely inflationary. This is the beginning of the hyperinflation of the USD. The birth of the Fed Coin.

Not to be outdone, look for this from every central bank in the near future. Fed coins airdropped around the world hyper-inflating everything into oblivion. Trillions of debt won't seem so bad when a loaf of bread is $1000.

They pulled this part from the bill but showed their hand.

Basically every Fed Reserve bank would be a node, everyone has a dollar wallet tied to their identity (either through their bank or verified ID at the post office).

Anonymity would be gone. Every transaction traced (though people already do that with their credit cards).

The plus side would be the fact that this could allow for decentralized bitcoin exchanges. Convert your bitcoins seamlessly once you get paid in digital dollars. When you go to pay for something, seamlessly convert back to dollars at the point of sale.

Until merchants allow for both (since they'll have the hardware for it already).

...I barely got out of Thailand with my bitcoins intact...Fortunately I had a backup that I split among family members because all of my cryptosteel was on the seastead...

Any wonder why they decided that your tiny pied-a-mer was a threat to Thai sovereignty and threatened you with death? It would have been an interesting interrogation if they'd caught you.

What's a $5 wrench compared to a navy and a firing squad?

Sovereignty was just an excuse.

Yes, we know the reason now.

You are right. It had absolutely nothing to do with sovereignty.

Trump seems to be thinking of starting an experiment with hydroxychloroquine on New Yorkers from tomorrow.

In other news:

UNITED STATES: Man in his sixties dies after trying to self-medicate against coronavirus by taking chloroquine phosphate in the form of fish tank cleaner

Yep, I went on Amazon a few weeks ago and there were Chloroquine Phosphate pills for sale for about $300 per pack. While Chloroquine Phosphate fish cleaner was about $15 for a full bottle.

They gave us that stuff in Iraq/Afghanistan to prevent malaria. Never took it but they're expensive.

I'm feeling a bit nervous about having my bitcoins on the exchange right now. If they suddenly "lose" everyone's bitcoins...what would anyone really care? Everyone has enough problems than to worry about a bunch of rich folks losing money.

I am also a bit gun shy on many cold storage systems I have used. I barely got out of Thailand with my bitcoins intact.

Keeping anything physical requires thinking of different scenarios. Bugging out I can carry it with me. What if I'm arrested for tyranny reasons and they confiscate my home again? Centralized servers don't seem very secure at this point (encrypting it and putting it on AWS, etc.). There's a brain wallet but many of those were hacked due to humans not being as crafty as they think. I had troubles with my trezor in Thailand, I had the trezor but the backup codes were on the seastead. That's part of it, you need backups but what to do with the backups?

I get pretty extreme when doing cold storage for extra security. Last time I bought a cheap computer to create the private keys, then put them into my cryptosteel in an order that only I knew, then I destroyed the computer with a hammer and burned the parts in a fire. Fortunately I had a backup that I split among family members because all of my cryptosteel was on the seastead.

Coming up with a new cold storage solution is not simple when you don't trust that your home won't be over-run. If I was thrown in jail I'd like the peace of mind that every day I'm in there I'm getting richer and richer and nobody can steal my bitcoins while I'm in there.
Only surefire way is to memorize all your keys and not have any physical copies. I don't trust myself quite that much.

Ya, perhaps make a song with my private key and sing it every day.

But yep, definitely do not trust myself enough to memorize a full private key.
