Here is an obscenely bullish desktop wallpaper (for usage as pr0n substitute), concentrating at this multiple times a day for 2 minutes each time will release endorphins and convert every bear into a bull after long enough exposure. I have made it 1024*768 for old laptops, I can make higher resolutions too. Like! This would look nice on a wall in my living room. Any chance you can output some vector format eg PS or PDF?

BTC is like a clever, beautiful woman. You want her badly. She can destroy you. She can take you to the moon if you can dance along her swings. EDIT: s/take her mood/dance along her/ - because the latter form is prettier

I know - screaming "manipulation!" at big dumps is so 2011 - but still: Whoever is executing these big market sells while paying so much in slippage is either very stupid or cleverly motivated.

Speculation-wise, Mr. Overstock-CEO-guy just saved our asses. Now I'd be very grateful if you US-based guys show them continued appreciation, so that the experiment succeeds and they eventually decide to give EU people like me a similar payment option, e.g. through Neo&Bee.

You should really travel a a bit to see how other people live and why those immigrants come and do all the crap jobs. In Poland, Ukraine, Bulgaria and many other typical monthly wage is below $500. I used to work 12 hours a day for $2/h (!) and I have a master's degree, speak 3 languages and can do anything from repairing your car to setting up a LAN network. I know people who have PhD in science and work for $600/month. Before you start complaining about your hard and exhausting $20/h job come and visit us third worlders Brilliantly said. Let me add that this is how the skilled immigrants who speak three languages and have masters degrees take the jobs from that lazy percent of natives who are too used to comfort and decide to stay ignorant instead. Guess which one of the two categories above does actually contribute more to a nation's wealth? Hint: most xenophobes in UK are unemployed white trash natives whose dole is partly financed with immigrants' income taxes.

One question related to those funds is if some of them might belong to people who committed no crimes (or at least have not been convicted of them). I'm have little doubt (in fact, I pretty much know for sure) that there's precedent for the cops just keeping the whole lot but still.
That is something that bothers me, hypothetically. There is a minority of international SR users that never purchased or sold anything illegal. They happened to have some coins there, maybe with the intent of wrongdoing - but SR closed in their face before they did any. Or maybe they were just using SR as an online wallet. These are not US citizens. What gives the US government any right to steal their coins?
