Bitcoin Foundation: Where on Earth Did all the Money Go?

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Let's see, the managers of the Bitcoin (money) Foundation can't seem to manage money effectively.  What a fucking start for bitcoin.  History is going to look back on this in a few years, and it's going to taste bitter.  Not sure why such an organization exists in the first place.  What a world.

[Gleb Gamow]

I'm no fan of TBF at all, but I wanted to give Bruce Fenton and others some relevant information. In late 2014 Bruno (Gleb/Phinneas) made a wild accusation against Patrick Murck on this forum:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=851373.0

The original title was more provocative. He never backed up his accusation with any evidence, of course, and it was always reasonably clear it was just something he was making up.

Frankly, Bruno is probably seriously mentally ill and delusional. He has no credibility and no weight should be given to what he says. On the other hand, it wouldn't be particularly surprising if he turns out to be a physical threat to people due to his mental instability. He should be taken seriously in this sense.

Regarding TBF, it should just shut down.

What J.J. is in reference to is me calling Patrick a pedophile via a thread I started on this forum (EDIT: I see now that it was cited, with apologies for missing it) in response to a post he made on Reddit of which I'll gladly retrieve if requested. I didn't back up the accusation because there was no evidence. That said, I don't know who the fuck you are, J.J., but rest assured that I'm mentally stable.

And, for a dude who shouldn't be taken seriously, again, it was because of my findings and another thread I started on this forum that cause a many members to leave TBF, resonating to compound your sentiment that the TBF should be shut down, ergo your actions directly and indirectly stem from the person - ME - who you're claiming has no cred. Weird, ain't it?

To help you out, dude, I believe you meant to pen 'shouldn't' or include the word 'not' in the phrase I highlighted above.

Also, don't forget to cite my satirical posts on wanting to fuck goats and pre-teen boys. I look forward to following your links to said while giving myself eggnog enemas. BTW, my eggnog enemas references are satire based on something Marshall Long penned a few days ago. You know Marshall Long, don't you? He's cryptocurrency's serial liar claiming to have started in Bitcoin in 2009, since disproved by me, and attended the Satoshi Roundtable with Bruce Fenton, in case you're not up to speed. Follow the link in my sig if you're not versed on the makings of a serial liar. I promise you won't be disappointed.

and yes i know by posting i have fed that troll. but i really wonder what his motivation in life is. as i just don't think its very much

[Gleb Gamow]

Which of the following four options is most likely to be true:

1.) I give myself eggnog enemas
2.) Santa Claus is real and has a personal Chief Investment Officer
3.) Both of the above
4.) None of the above

FUCK YOU INTERNET FOR MAKING SPIT COFFEE ALL OVER MY LAPTOP!

http://www.fentonreport.com/economy/santa-claus-chief-investment-officer

Despite a strong belief in Bitcoin and regular watching of YouTube videos by Roger Ver, Santa has authorized only minimal purchases, primarily for gifts.  We purchased some fair sized coin blocks from Gemini, Barry Silbert and DCG and several gift cards from Gyft as well as Bitcoin allocations from Coinbase and Circle.  Santa will be using ChangeTip to give away Bitcoin on Christmas.  The elves in our treasury department have created a new position for the purpose of exchanging alt-coins and are using ShapeShift for this purpose.  We have taken a small position in publicly traded BTCS.  We were hoping that Coinbase, Circle and Bitfury would have provided allocations to recent funding rounds but the complete confidentiality of Santa’s existence proved difficult in the paperwork process so our attorneys, Marco Santori and Brian Klien advised against trying to buy this stock.

atleast you add something that atleast resonates as being ontopic. even if you do go on a tangent i see it as just your comedic personality and trying to entertain people so that it subtly highlights your points. but others, i just dont get their point.

so lets reign in the topic back to its point.

Gleb, if you had been handed the title of CEO, Exec director, chairman .. whatever glorified name badge gives you the control to do what you want.. how would you set out to do something for the future of an organization thats purpose is to help the bitcoin community.. totally ignoring the past

Admittedly I do not know who a lot about Bruce Fenton, I know he ran for election for the Bitcoin foundation, but I noticed something that is somewhat concerning.

I guess on Fantasy Island, if Marshall Long can say that he was mining bitcoins in 2009, I guess Bruce Fenton can accept them in 2007 as payment for military grade cameras. Follow the link above if you don't believe the image. I sure the hell would if presented with such. Afterwards, mail me your explanations to an address I lived at in 1978 so I can get up to speed.

In re. the three links above, is the USAF somehow connected with Bitcoin?

[Sugarape]

Why do people care where their money has gone? The quicker they bankrupt themselves the better. The one thing that corrupts organizations like this is money and the power that comes along with it. Any company could buy their way into the foundation so it was corrupt from the start and was obvious those seeking to only line their own pockets would steer it where they wanted it to go but seems like mismanagement has fucked them up. I'd prefer they just desolve to be honest.
