That's why PayPal supporting bitcoin derivatives was so important. Sure it's an additional "derivative" onramp, but more importantly, it's changing the perception of BTC from druggies/pornogrophers/terrorists money to a serious stable/profitable investment, yet people bitched about it not passing their purity tests. We're on the right path, this is one of the transition stages, it's just a matter of time. |

I'd be careful thinking we're in the clear and there's only smooth sailing ahead. Don't fool yourself into thinking that governments will give up their monopolies on currencies willingly and without a fight. |

Better to price bitcoin in lambos, or guess that would have to come after parity Edit: Like, damn man do you remember the time when 1 BTC was only worth 0,07 Urus's? |

Good volume and still above $15k, this little monster survives on cash, and he's young and hungry, i'm getting a beer

On the subject of Sean Connery/007, have you heard that the next James Bond will be a black woman, Lashana Lynch?
She sees it as "challenging stereotypes" and "is greatful to challenge these narratives". We are moving away from a poisoning masculinity, she says to Harper's Bazaar.
Don't they realize that James Bond is so popular because he is a stereotype?
Remove the stereotype and there is no James Bond. This is going to end up a disaster, go woke, go broke.
Oh no. Please. Don't do this! How can "James" be a woman? At least make it a tranny, then maybe it'd be more believable |

It's happening! May I present...the MS Satoshi. She looks lovely, much better than a lambo |

The only reason why ppl are talking about all the legalities like certified by the states is because the loser did not concede, where normally they do. Again, a self-manufactured 'crisis'. Laughable, because the same ppl who do not want to concede earlier wanted to declare themselves the winner, bypassing all the legalities. Sad, because conceding is very important, signaling to all their supporters that the race is over, and that they need to get to terms with a new reality, a shared reality, that everyone needs to make the best of. And futile, because it just is what it is, the vote is very clear, even despite this stupid electoral college-system.
Again comes down to risk vs. return. There's little to no personal downside, but the upside is becoming a president (even if the odds of that at this point are less that 0,000001%). The problem is that lack of personal downside doesn't mean that there's no downside at all. The cost of these shenanigans is bared by the division of the country, and radicalizing his base already going through the stages of grief (currently looks like still in denial). Convincing people that are already on edge that something is being stolen from them might push some radicals over to spill blood. Which is not good for anyone but expected behavior for people with sociopathic tendencies. |

So went down to the local bitcoin ATM to pick up a thousand in either litecoin or bitcoin. First the owner changed and now it only does BTC. Second their fucking buy price was $14,600 and sell price of $18,500. Fuck you does not begin to describe my thoughts on this matter :-)
Maybe it's time to go get a real exchange account tied to a real bank and passport and a sample of my nutter butter. For a US cit, what's the valid options these days?

It is more likely this. See the video, below on why a ballot worker would be highlighting areas. It also would be damn dumb to do as you claim...with a mess of frigging obvious cameras and security walking around the area as well. I don't have those kinda guts for prison time myself. So likely it was as the video below states...filling in 'lightly' filled boxes that the laser counter of votes rejected on the first pass through, before they try it again.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrZLC9_7gKk&feature=youtu.be&fbclid=IwAR3CMrAAr2W3V0UCru4KAGn92w2Hu0No4bgJUHFl0hH_1nYII_ulfZ382F4So anyway...this video has been investigated...and found to be NOT fraud...here is the link below https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/pa-worker-filling-ballots/anyway, don't slam me on this, just what the links told me as well, on what was going on with the above voter workers actions, on training and the actual video posted as fraud above. (I have a 'feeling' as the messanger on this, I'm soon to be shot! Ack!) Brad Biden is leading by 4million votes, if this video was true, she'd need a lot more pens. Even in PA Biden is currently leading by 15k votes, at her pace she'd need few more months to make a difference. Who wouldn't want to risk a jail sentence by knowingly doing something that wouldn't make a difference risk vs return  Unless of course there's an army of them which no one knows about, strategically placed in swing states and on the movie set where moon landing was filmed, yet for some reason they don't pick republican senators or representatives?  |

It's like as if PayPal, square, robinhood, gemini, gbtc, bakkt, China, Russia, Europe, coinbase are all competing for some kind of limited supply of an asset that's already 12% into the next halfening, after which the whole world will compete for BTC450 mined daily. Huh who could've predicted such price swings |

C'on guys. Some respect to the fallen in battle. Their sacrifice led us hodlers to where we are today. Our hodling will lead us to where we will be "tomorrow".
Also, I find very amusing the lack of rockets, trains and spaceships. This is fine.
That's true, should we send like a fruit basket to jbreher? He must still be waiting for that BSv to moon  There's a ban on trains until we pass $20k |

After all the speculation, finally we know where the coins were moved. To the Justice Department's wallet.  I wonder how they got the key if they didn't get it at the time of the bust. These coins were apparently stolen from Silk Road while it was still in operation. The Feds didn't have access to them until two days ago, when they struck some sort of deal with the guy that stole them in the first place. https://www.justice.gov/usao-ndca/press-release/file/1334771/downloadOn approximately April 9, 2013, the Bitcoin addresses that received the 70,411.46 Bitcoin from Silk Road sent 69,471.082201 (approximately $14 million at the time of transfer) to 1HQ3Go3ggs8pFnXuHVHRytPCq5fGG8Hbhx (hereafter “1HQ3”). Expecting more gov auctions in the future, only now big boys can pile on and overbid on fed cleaned coins.
(...)
Individual X, whose identity is known to the government, was determined to have been involved in a transaction that related to 1HQ3.
According to an investigation conducted by the Criminal Investigation Division of the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of California, Individual X was the individual who moved the cryptocurrency from Silk Road. According to the investigation, Individual X was able to hack into Silk Road and gain unauthorized and illegal access to Silk Road and thereby steal the illicit cryptocurrency from Silk Road and move it into wallets that Individual X controlled. According to the investigation, Ulbricht became aware of Individual X’s online identity and threatened Individual X for return of the cryptocurrency to Ulbricht. Individual X did not return the cryptocurrency but kept it and did not spend it.
On November 3, 2020, Individual X signed a Consent and Agreement to Forfeiture with the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Northern District of California. In that agreement, Individual X, consented to the forfeiture of the Defendant Property to the United States government.
On November 3, 2020, the United States took custody of the Defendant Property from 1HQ3. Imagine having access to 70k btc all these years, knowing your identity is known. Thnx for the source, good info. Also, On approximately April 23, 2015, 1HQ3 sent 101 Bitcoin (approximately $23,700) to BTC-e guessing that's how they linked his "online identity" to real. Ulbricht should write a book, if he's allowed to. |

whatever the outcome...split government will continue, hence both US stock market (more) and btc (less) are loving it.
Not sure why gold is down...maybe temporarily or perceives less stimulus aka "printing", perhaps.
Re election:
1. I am close to 100% sure that there is a better way of doing it in the 21st century.
2. I would go to a direct vote, but nobody asks me, besides, something something about small state representation.
I agree, but people in Cali, NY and TX usually feel a bit strange that the vote of many millions almost does not count (electoral college does not split a vote for these states).
Markets only care for whoever gives them another shot of stimulus sooner, Biden seems to be the favorite in this regard. |

I see a few Sean Connery's fans around here.
Xhomerx, why don't you create a nice commemorative hat for our departed friend?
~snip
avatar-sized  You are the Man!  Wonderful creation! US Election Update Biden - Trump 220 - 213 Trump is going to speak anytime now...let's see what he says I won, going to supreme court so they'd stop counting millions of mailed in votes. Corn's turning red, S&P DOW futures are red NASDAQ still green. Next 24hrs are crucial |

This will be a good test for BTC. Expecting a lot of uncertainty/fear/volatility next few (possibly month) as such expecting markets to pull back and deleverage. If BTC drops it's still used as a highly leveraged speculative asset, if it rises when markets fall, we can finally decouple and then the moon.
tl;dr next 24hrs are critical
