Every big government will be targeting them if Bitcoin spikes up enough.

I'm a bit perplexed about rumors I've been hearing that (((someone))) was the $100M market buy that caused this FOMO.

As a Bulgarian, I am well informed about this issue and I can assure you these coins will not be sold anytime soon. They are aquired with a joint action with FBI and are being locked by FBI, probably never to be released, since these coins are entirely made by criminal activity. The criminal group was acting in Bulgaria, hence the misinformation that the government has the coins.
Why would they get a foreign government to help them secure something like that? I wouldn't trust the FBI to not have a way to access those coins.

I wouldn't trust them in not selling either. That's exactly what they have done every time with all the coins they could get their dirty hands over.

Dry breaks for both liquor and herb are quite nice from time to time indeed.

The Herb is a gift from Jah that helps me feel more in tune with life and relaxed. It inspires me to do creative things, and being more calm, reasonable, and introspective, while enduring the human condition, on a daily basis.

Alcohol, on the other hand, just shuts me down, and destroys any ability to work at anything resembling peak-efficiency.

The Herb has been a part of my life for longer than I care to admit. I've considered donating my body to science upon my passing, as a case study for chronic herb use, but Rick has some reservations.

I would rather eliminate all other vices from my life, than part with The Herb.

The Herb is life.

EDIT: Looks like a play for $5,300 is in the making.

Congrats bro.

It has been a couple of decades since I don't drink DAILY. And I mean huge amounts DAILY. I might have an addiction, I don't really know since I have never tried to not drink. I almost feel like it doesn't impair my efficiency, much on the contrary. Only noticeable con is that I can't drive my sports car at this alcohol levels, which is something I really liked.

Even if I (or anyone around me) don't think it really impacts my life, behaviour, or work in a negative noticeable way, I think at my age I should reduce the ingest levels (which I somehow already did several years ago going from Whisky-coca cola to beer and wine), or I will soon should start to develop serious health issues (or so they say about alcohol in amounts *orders of magnitude* less than I do ingest).

But that, I think, needs a lifestyle change. That's one of the reasons I have bought my new property, to do more physical activity and maybe exchange alcohol for that. I hope it will work... at least I have done what my (not so much) money could do to ease my transition into a new lifestyle. I have put it all on the table, now it is on me to take advantage of it and.... change myself.

If some day soon I can also say I have been completely dry for whatever time (even a single day as a start), I will keep you guys updated Smiley

Congrats again!

P.S.: Never even tried *ANY* other drugs out of fear I would like it and become addicted (I am thinking about cocaine here). Except for smoking 2-3 packs a day during most of my life, which is something I already stopped completely 5 years ago (THAT was seriously and noticeably hurting my health).

SIDEWAYS we go!



watching a bit forward in time...

Gyrsur posting 10 of those gold bars equals 12.5-20ish  BTC Smiley

That's the precise moment I am waiting for to buy a 1KG bar for around 1 BTC.
If it wasn't so easy to steal I'd get myself one at that point for shits and giggles and use it as furniture.

1BTC for 1KG bar. That's my price and my limit (max amount of gold I would hodl/bury). I think it is ok for giggles no matter what.

No way I would ever be buying more than a 1 KG bar just for "historical" reasons. Fuck that 400oz bar.

We are "only" around 10x away from that moment. I have seen Bitcoin do crazier things than that.

I wouldn’t mimd some physical gold, think it’d be pretty cool to own some. Not buying any until bitcoin is worth a hell of a lot more though.

That's what r0ach never understood. It is not that we are against Gold as another type of somewhat valuable asset, it is just that we consider it is still way overvalued in comparison to Bitcoin.

Maybe some day we will end up having even more gold than him just for the sake of it. Poor soul.

Maybe you can have 2 or 3 seastead apart from the set of owners, just to rent.
On a platform like airbnb, it may be another form of profitable, probably always have reservations.

I just had a group come out here last week to visit the seastead. One of them wants to do exactly that.

He wants to set up a SeaBnB on a few of these and get about 10 people to go in on one to split the cost/profit. He's figuring a 65% occupancy rate over 3 years pays for itself.

The configuration would be just a bed and bathroom instead of the standard which comes with a kitchen.

We also have a big investor that wants to set up an underwater restaurant. People visiting the restaurant will want a place to stay the night. We're figuring a capacity of 40 high end customers.

Maybe I am completely wrong, but that looks like a great idea. I see way bigger target on people looking for temporary / adventure experience than people permanently living on it. And additional services/experiences like that underwater restaurant also seem like a great enhancement in that path.

There's many people in the world with pockets full of money looking for new experiences and able to pay whatever for it than those same people leaving their mansions to permanently live in a confined space in the middle of the sea. Not to mention the amount of youtubers/bloggers that could find that a great experience (for a brief period of time) to fully document on their social networks. Add to that the "pioneering" aspect of it and you have a great marketing proposal.

Tone Vays says sub $3k, even sub 2k is still possible. I might get 4-5 coins instantly if that happens.

Have you seen that dude's hair ? Can't trust anyone with hair that bad.

No more evidence needed.

I was 1 BTC away from my cryptowinter accumulation goal. I'm still holding out hope for a $1,000 discount from here  Tongue

I’m 2.1BTC away from a round number that I set myself as my total HODL stash. I might be able to reach it if we stay in this range until maybe Xmas.

If not then whatever, I have enough. Just a bit of OCD wanting to reach a certain figure.
I am 16.15BTC away.


I'm a bit more than 16.15 BTC above my number.  You can have some of mine, since you are so nice and sweet.   Undecided

I am also nice and sweet. I could do with that amount if Palmodar refuses. Would even merit you (not that I am selling merit or anything). Think about it.... I will be here.

^ 100BTC sounds like an incredibly HUGE amount for just a little piece of metal. That needs to change.

I have *EVERYONE* on ignore. I am such an elitist and egomaniacal asshole I would even ignore me if I could.

I am a hodler.

Repent sinner...thou must uncapitulate forthwith and remain so hence forth!

I will un"capitulate" in due to time! Tongue

Things are looking fine though.... We will see...

Great.  That is good newses!!!!

At least you are no longer looking at either drowning yourself in the nearest river nor placing yourself inside of a cupboard with chocolate all over your face.  Wink

In the WO thread, our motto here is to save regular and active participants one at a time, but only when such active and regular participants are ready, willing and able to save themselves.   Tongue

Yup, I feel better now. I need to recognise that my recent stressful financial situation plus other personal issues might have additionally impacted my spirit in addition to the second (and failed) BTC bottom attempt.

The sky seems to be clearing again... in one side my BTC stash is now in a more healthy position and also the bank surprisingly (after appraising the market value) raised the ratio of loan for my mortgage to 90% of buying price so the impact on my lifetime fiat savings won't be as high as I initially expected. And also (huge) thanks to my GF who decided to step up and 50% buy the property to help me with the purchase.

Life is like a box of chocolates... Full of up & down situations for no particular reason. Never throw the towel.

To da moon?

Off topic, but...

Word around the campfire has it that Rosewater appears to be suffering from protracted post acute benzodiazepine withdrawal. It's all quite heady and complicated. Lots of ins. Lots of outs. Akathisia, some hallucinations. GABA receptor down-regulation. This on top of tardive dysphoria and that wheat thing, to the best of my knowledge. At any rate, doctors orders. The line between iatrogenic physical dependence and full blown pill sick smack-houndery is a bit unclear. Sometimes you eat the bear, sometimes the bear eats you.


Now where's my hat?

Welcome back Major! You were sorely missed!

Not that I'm a big fan of Coinbase, but I gotta say that this astroturfed smear campaign against them, urging existing users to #DeleteCoinbase and newbies to stay away, has gone splendidly well. The whale market makers know what they are doing.

Can't wait for the inevitable bull run to start, with all these crying n00bs going "But...bbut...you guys said to delete my Coinbase acct, and now I wanna buy more BitcoinTM because the price is rising fast. Now it's gonna take me another month to get verified again for a new account!"

And also "But...bbut...now I can't cash out because I #DeleteCoinbase! Shiitttt!"

Torques' view is aging well it seems.  Where is that dude?  

I'm here



Hey Torque Welcome back!

Why the CSW bashing on the door meme?

The Jetsons is happening man, houses built on stands above the ocean, our robo assistants are Alexa and we have btc to transfer funds.

I don't even know how much (a fucking lot for sure) I would ask for making me live in the ocean. That being said I love what pioneers like Elwar are doing and will be watching closely. It is just not for me. Not my dream.

I like to publish the contrary opinions (FUD) you have to know what they think. Wink

I have gotten to understand your posting habits well enough to know that you are generally posting bullish stuff, and decent bitcoin information. 

Nonetheless, frequently it will be good to highlight some level of analysis or pointing out that you are skeptical of the information.. meaning that you suspect that there is some FUDDING going on.  .. especially for the FUD materials...

 Ultimately, you do what you like, but sometimes information could be read out of context if you do not highlight the seemingly FUD part of it.

Ok, I thought it was clear to all of you what I think about BTC, there's no problem with the FUD news or chart, I will add a comment about it. Wink

Tell him to fuck off. He will understand Smiley

Tether gone nuts... So many USDT printings in the last 30 minutes. Expecting a move soon!

https://twitter.com/BtcBlockBot/status/1115194884699324416



Why am I up at this ungodly hour ? Back to sleep with me.

I have been in bitcoin since a fair amount of time now.
But it still amazes me: this guy moved 36 MIOS USD spending 23.07 USD.
How much would it cost to move such amount of money with traditional banking system?
No to think about moving this amount in GOLD (this is why Bitcoin, digital gold, is actually BETTER than physical gold).


0 in Spain unless you are an ignorant pleb that doesn't know any better. Not the case of someone with that amount of money. So 0, and instant transfer.

It has been a good amount of DECADES since I pay ANYTHING for a transfer. The instant thing is recent though (it was like 24-48 hours before)

Can you transfer 32 Millions to the US for free? are you sure?
I bet you have free money transfer in SEPA (EU+ SUI) only.



Yep, you are right. The fee will surely be (way) higher (than BTC) in that case.

Where I live - $0.

I don't understand why this particular meme gives people erections.
Bull fucking shit, when you transfer large amounts especially internationally they start going off a percentage.

No one is handling 30,000,000 for free.

International, depending on the destination country might vary.

Even in that case (out of EURO zone)... when you deal with big amounts the bank earns its money from other deals you have with them so you get very good or zero rates for many things.

Of course, if you don't deal much with the bank and suddenly you have an incoming tx of 30 million you will be in deep shit (and I am not talking about fees here).
