Nah. I think this is a false story. Who the hell would dump a 30k btc?If the drive had 30k btc the user know that he/she will dump money. And the how come a homeless man knows bitcoin?

I was jacking off all over myself while reading your post and seeing that you actually read the story. Then my dick went limp when I got to and read the latter part of the last sentence. HOW THE FUCK DID YOU MISS THE PART WHERE HE WALKED UP TO A COUPLE AND THE GIRL OF THE COUPLE KNEW ABOUT BITCOIN UPON PLUGGING IN THE WORKING EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE?

Next poster in 5 ..... 4 .... 3 ... : Did he find the computer in a dumpster or at a laundromat?

Really? Who would throw their thousands of bitcoin? The drive must be stolen. How can a homeless man know that it was bitcoins? Lol the veteran is a tech geek? I dont believe this thing. Whats the name of the man? He's very lucky if its true.

If this story was true, then the homeless man is very lucky. I do not believe this story though since the couple could have said that the drive has nothing in it and just copy the text that is there. It is also obvious that the post must have been fake and are just used by the poster to earn money and gain donation to their bitcoin address. The probability that this story is true is only 5%.

Theymos, lock the entire forum and toss it into the nearest dumpster, for obviously its user base has regressed to ... to ... the sperm of a dying T-rex that's covered with army ants.

Theymos,

If you want to save this steaming pile of a forum we need to BAN ALL PAID SIGNATURES.  This will solve a multitude of issues.  The stupid posts, the selling of accounts, did I mention the stupid fucking posts?

This forum is dying under the weight of this shit and has been for a while now.  Start by banning these two idiots and everyone else with a KOMODO signature.

Our family was terrorized by Homeland Security.  Read all about it here:  http://www.jmwagner.com/ and http://www.burtw.com/  Any donations to help us recover from the $300,000 in legal fees and forced donations to the Federal Asset Forfeiture slush fund are greatly appreciated!

Another course of action for those with time and desire is create an anon nym and report, with proof-cum-quotes, the abuse to the respective campaign managers, resulting in them not getting fully paid if at all, with the hope that the end results they improve posting.

That said, does anybody know if Carl Pattersfield found the laptop in a washer or dryer at the laundromat?  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

FYI: There are now 7 search results for "Carl Pattersfield" (in quotes): https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1CHFX_enUS549US549&q=%22Carl+Pattersfield%22&oq=%22Carl+Pattersfield%22&gs_l=serp.3...36.2585.0.2867.2.2.0.0.0.0.818.1006.0j1j6-1.2.0....0...1c.1.64.serp..0.0.0.FuDYS3eo4UY

Revisiting a quote from the article (also seen in the OP if anybody cares to read it):

Quote
In August, Carl Pattersfield, who is homeless, was digging through a couple of dumpsters near 10th Ave and West 35th St. in New York City,

Something piqued my interest, wondering about the neighborhood et al. when I found the following:

http://www.law360.com/articles/533144/tishman-speyer-drops-438m-on-hudson-spire-adjacent-lots

Quote
In separate deals, Tishman assembled a large development site covering a full block from West 34th St. to West 35th St. and between 10th Ave. and Hudson Yards Boulevard.

Tishman bought the Hudson Spire site at 435 10th Ave. for $238 million in cash and paid Sherwood Equities Inc. $200 million in cash for the adjacent sites.

Here's the Wiki on the Spire: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hudson_Spire (from its top floors, you'll be able to see planes land on the Hudson River).

Ben Rowland: https://www.linkedin.com/in/benrowland1 Ben Rowland worked at Nick "Mr. Bicycle" Spanos' Bitcoin Center and as a photographer for Tishman Spire.

Carl Pattersfield should consider donating bitcoins to fellow homeless people who accept bitcoin. I know, they're far and few between, but surely he could start with this homeless veteran known to beg outside BFL's former office:

This seems like a false story, I mean come on, why will someone throw 30k btc? doesn't make sense, it just the same as saying some threw 21m $ through the window.

Clearly bullshit

I agree. Very similar to a lie. Just someone so decided to draw attention to Bitcoins. And the old man would hardly have realized that he had found Bitcoin

READ THE FUCKIN' ARTICLE and you'll learnt that the old man also didn't know how to masturbate till after he approached a couple versed in such things, teaching him the ropes, including on how to fire up the found working hard drive that the bitcoins were supposedly located.

After posting his story on Reddit, [Carl] Pattersfield has sold 10 coins ...

I will give a free blowjob to the first person who links to Carl's Reddit post/thread.  Kiss

This was an entertaining story, however, it seems more of a fairytale than true.  It would be nice to find a hard drive with lost bitcoins.  Even better if this story was created into a pop-up book.
