The Scam was never a PONZI..... the Scam was the ENDGAME.

[Vladimir]

I'm counting on it,

Nahh I read a bit that thread and changed my mind, those guys are even more ignorant than most of worst idiots here. They got the ponzi thing right, however.

There's a reason why certain people refused to EVER talk about USD in reference to Bitcoin with his Lenders.
Bitcoin was ALWAYS Bitcoin and nothing more.....NEVER translating into a discussed amount of US Dollars.

Ever wonder how long it will take to virtually (well, literally) suck the economic life out of Bitcoin ? My guess is 2 weeks.

I for one am looking forward to an increase in my invested Bitcoins of 7% at the cost of 50% of their USD value.

HOW COULD I BE SO FUCKING STUPID ?

I was wrong. It only took 2 days, not 2 weeks.

[Coinoisseur]

I wouldn't call hovering around $8 as sucking the life out of Bitcoin.

buttcoin.org closed way to soon. comedy gold lately.

Bitcoin is backed by comedy gold, didn't you know.

Good to know you only think short term, bitlane.

yah @ 8 and suck the life out, really. I remember when I got my first coins last December around $3. Show me some real world investments with 266.7% return in 9 months.

Depending on what percentage of today's volume is Pirateat40, he may have already blown through quite a large bit of his BTC stash. Not looking good for anyone hoping to be repaid through market manipulation. This might make good analysis for market watchers.

Reinforcing my opinion that anyone who writes about how Bitcoin must somehow merge with governments to purge all scams and cons is an idiot: http://business.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474981557391 http://myfox8.com/2012/08/17/62674/

Just a small example of the stuff that goes on in government backed currencies. The CEO so far has just paid $4 million on a $600 million scam, no charges announced yet, rofl. If Pirateat40 does turn out to not have the funds to reimburse, he'll still be small fry compared to USD and many other currencies.

The example you're using is a tiny fraction of the USD market. Pirate owns 6% of bitcoins in circulation, not to mention the current market volumes.

I'm not trying to disagree about whether these should be illegal/forcibly discouraged in Bitcoin's context, but I cannot find any justification for it.

It's pretty damn obvious that those who are planning on getting coins back from pirate are already selling their existing reserves in order to get the maximum payout before all the other payout recipients dump their coins.

It's a race to the bottom.

If they were smart they would've sold already on friday, right after the announcement

Yes, but demonstrating that government regulation is not a quick fix. IMO, stable or at least predictable pricing and how people throwing BTC at HYIP affects this is a much more important topic.

Vigilante Justice will prevail EVERY time.

Who's in for a Bitcoin Convention in Texas ?
I hear that the North Eastern Texas scenery is quite nice this time of year.

You know what they say about Texas: "....come for the Dive Instruction, stay for the Piano Lessons....."

We can discuss and set a final date over the next week or 2.

See you all there.

You think he'd stick around when people know where he sleeps if it ends up being a scam? But I have a sailboat and very familiar with Caribbean and central/south america, available for hire
