And all this time he has been secretly building the 2nd largest private collection of Bitcoins (next to Satoshi) after all the publicity the Winklevoss twins were receiving? He has been rather quiet about Bitcoins in general, and you know it has at least sparked his interest.

Will the news that Mark Zuckerburg having more Bitcoins than the Winklevoss twins spark a giant bubble that will skyrocket Mark Zuckerburg and Satoshi Nakamoto to the richest people on the planet?

Only time will tell...

Wait a minute?

This is a 'what if' rather than an actual news story, right?

GETDAFUCKOUTTAHEREANDSTOPWASTINGMYFUCIKINGTIMEUDAMNHALFWIT!


What if the Federal Reserve said they were backing the USD with Bitcoin?
What if the Russian Federation said they would only take payment for fossil fuels in Bitcoin?
What if a big pile of billionaires decided to plunge billions into buying up all the Bitcoins on the exchanges just for a laugh?
What if
What if

and, wait for it....

Just imagine that the PBOC had deliberately crashed Bitcoin in order to buy it up cheap, and then came out and said it was the new official currency of China!?

Bitfinex victims. DO NOT TOUCH THE BFX TOKEN! Start moving it around, or trading it, and you will be construed as having accepted it as an alternative means of payment to your USD, BTC, etc.

What if Mark Zuckerburg sold his shares to buy Bitcoins?

A bunch of desperate middle-aged cab drivers and grocery clerks would get very rich, with their bitcoin value skyrocketing. Then, this get-rich-quick bunch would exchange their bitcoins for fiat, or for luxury goods like fancy manors and cars, while Zuckerberg would be ze zucker who would pay for all of this.

I think that this storyline would be great for a satirical comedy about the stupidity of this generation.

There's a good chance that he has a pretty large holding already. He also could easily have been one of the people ready to buy the confiscated coins (just as play money for him)

Well the title did start with what if....

It's even worse when the thread title is written like its a news article and than the OP is actually speculation.

I know he probably wouldnt be petty, but he might not want to pump something that the winkleveii is heavily into (because they sued him a while back).

and zucker made something for dogecoin or something a few weeks ago. Idk lets see

Definitely not. He is secretly trying to destroy Bitcoin by supporting other altcoins such as the Devcoin. The reasons are well known to everyone (association of Winkelwii with Bitcoin). So it is not that surprising.

Doubt Zuckerburg would join the Bitcoin wagon for a while since he has his grudges with the Winkelwii he might hedge his bets and purchase a few but in my opinion he will move into alternative protocols like NXT Mastercoin Darkcoin Ethereum or something of that sort to spite the Winkelwii and make a second competing currency

That or invest in Litecoin just to mess with them lol.

I think he is smart enough to see that supporting alts instead of bitcoin is swimming upstream, and when everyone else accepts bitcoin his motives will be very clear.

True it still does not wipe out the possibility he will see Bitcoin 2.0 as a viable place to move his capital towards Smiley
Then again you are probably right he would support bitcoin while planning how to surpass it

(On the other hand he is rich enough already so he might have nothing else to do but fund venture capital against his grudges ^_^)
