i wonder if this whole Romney Effect is one of Voorhees marketing campaigns?  Wink

I don't know who it is but to be honest it smells like a Bitcoin marketing campaign. I wouldn't be surprised if it was. Then again, it could be for real. Bitcoins are, after all, perfect for ransom money.

100k would be a lot to launder, though. Talk about the most tainted BTC address in existence...

Felony blackmail threats against a presidential candidate are a little bigger than a mere marketing campaign.

Somebody went and hand delivered packages to office buildings, at the risk of leaving being identified due to residual DNA/fingerprints as well as possibly being captured on a surveilance camera. To do something that risky for a prank would be incredibly idiotic.

Then again people gave Pirate their money so I suppose anything's possible.

I forgot the demand was stated in USD, not BTC. Still, it's a lot to try and get rid of without getting caught.

Just send it to Silkroad, withdraw in chunks to MtGox, then withdraw in chunks to random addresses.

Yeah, got a slightly more positive opinion because bitcoin hasn't been completely demonized and looking forwardg to cashing out some coins on a short term bubble. TBH just spamming a little bit to see if I get an extra coin by name when I hit 100 posts
