Do you guys recall a few days ago, for about an hour or so, someone on Stamp had put up a 2,000 coin buy wall at $452?

Thereafter, within hours, the price went up from $452.50 to $456 and the $452 wall was not touched, removed and thereafter, for about a day, the price floated in the $454 territory until we got the BBC/Wright/Gavin "news" that dipped us to $438-ish. 

Anyhow, it would be interesting if when we arrive at the 500 sell wall on Stamp at $452 were to be quickly bought by that same whalebuyer..... hahahahahaha   I am fairly confident that the same bullwhale holds most of that 2000 coin equivalent fiat on Stamp (and that fiat was not used up during the most recent price drop)... but yeah, who the fuck knows the thinking of these various whale holders and how they play their various price movement strategies....?  It's a bit out of my league to participate in such personal whale trading experiences at the moment (with my limited number of coins)... but I believe that there could be some very interesting fireworks if such an instant buy card were to be played by that 2,000 coin bullwhale..   There is another 300 coins at $454, but it seems like some of that may just melt away... no?   

Let's get back to upper $460s and see what happens.   Lips sealed

Gonna buy that wall in 3 days.
You read it here first.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

That post, along with his BBC interview video, shows Wright to have a very dislikeable and at the same time needy personality. 

He's seemingly self-absorbed, bitter, internally contradictory (continuously publicly proclaiming that he wants privacy). Such a disposition is no way consistent with a person who would have compiled bitcoin's first whitepaper and engaged the more than two year follow-up efforts..   

lol! you are aware of that especially geniuses are often weird and difficult persons? it fits perfectly imo. just not the santa-claus parts of the community have expected.

Craig Wright interview (3 parts), supposedly from June 10th, 2014:

vimeo.com/149035662  
vimeo.com/149115042



Check out "part 2" (vimeo.com/149115042), starting at about ~9min 50sec mark.  

Has he been planning this for years?

You seem to be attempting to posit an erroneously unsubstantiated and seemingly.. nonfactual and grossly subjective statement regarding JayJuanGee's understanding, or,

 rather, lack of understanding, of personality traits and/or idiosyncratic attributes typically associated with..         and customarily attributed by the ill-informed mainstream media journalists who lack erudition and verve in psychointelectual sciences to individuals of high intelligence quotient currently contributing to the antifragility of cryptoeconomic echosystem in disruptive and/or groundbreaking manner, or have done so in recent or, possibly even distant past.


You sound seemingly self-absorbed, bitter, internally contradictory.. a disposition which is and has been in the past, consistent with a person who would have compiled seemingly self-absorbed, bitter, internally contradictory disposition into an assemblage and/or verbal construct such as a seemingly self-absorbed, bitter, internally contradictory internet forum post.

Your spacing is willy nilly.  Definately not up to standards.


In other news I was able to buy some in the 440's.  Thank you.  Today I worked 14 hrs with no break so I was not able to buy from my source.  It seems that the 440's are most likely behind us but you can never tell with the wacky world of bitcoin.

You read it here first.



I don't really know, but 3 days seems to be a long time in the current state of bitcoinlandia.  Currently, the 507 btc wall at $452 is down to 381 btc.  It doesn't seem capable of lasting more than a few more hours, maybe a day at most? I don't know, and I remain unclear whether there is going to be much of a battle once (or if) it breaks through the $452 wall within the next few hours, but I do concede that I see another bit more than 300 coins to break $454... will it melt away?

Maybe we will be back in the $440s or lower $450s in three days, and maybe not?  I am kind of inclined to think that we may be in the upper $460s for a week or more.. but then again, there could be a kind of battle simmering in the bitcoin community to the extent that there may be disagreement about price and some people ready, willing and able to make such a battle..   Accordingly, we could get some volatility around here in the coming weeks.  Excitement!!!!!!

I'm not so bothered about his having a difficult and not likeable personality.. because I get and agree with your point about geniuses being the weird, difficult and unlikeable personalities.   

My problem with Wright is the seemingly forced nature of this whole matter.  His behavior is not logical in respect to someone who may really and truly have been Satoshi... and it is just not my pie in the sky vision of the matter but instead more substantive of an impression of his forced phoniness.

The more that a person is directly exposed to some of his words and videographic statements, the more repulsive it becomes to attempt to give any benefit of the doubt to the guy.. and even Gavin for seeming to go along with it.

The below two articles seem to lend some additional buttressing of my inclinations.

1)  http://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/4hqwap/the_cryptographically_provable_con_man/

Here, even Gavin seems to be having second thoughts about giving credence to Wright.  In fact, looks like Gavin may be back peddling from his own attempts at scamming and having had been discovered to even exercise such bad judgement.

2) http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/4hq3rz/david_kleiman_craig_wrights_friend_more_likely/

O.k..... We did not get to meet David Kleiman, but really Kleiman's kind of personality and quirkiness seems to be much more in line with a potential Satoshi... to the extent that it may matter who is Satoshi...   And, yeah, if Kleiman was Satoshi, then there may be some kind of question regarding whether there is any way to get at bitcoins that may have potentially been in his control at or near the time of his death in 2013.

People of Bitconistan, greetings from the Third Reich! This is the voice you have learned to fear. This is the Voice of Terror.

Again, we bring you disaster: crushing, humiliating disaster.

It is folly to stand against the mighty wrath of the Fuhrer. Do you need more testimony of his invincible might to bring you to your knees? Very well.

Are you ready, Operative Number 7? This is the Voice of Terror. A secret ASIC factory somewhere in Bitcoinistan. Listen. Screams of the dying can still be heard.

This is the Voice of Terror. Are you there, people of Bitconistan, shivering in your cellars? Listen, Operative 41. The fuse is lighted. ...

In other words, it makes no sense that he seems to want to go to such efforts to show that he's Satoshi (in spite of his claims that he was supposedly forced into such a position because he is concerned about the privacy of his staff, etc etc).  If you really want privacy, just say you are not Satoshi and you made it all up, and you would be more believable...   This whole thing makes little to no sense, except for the conclusion that he is a fraud because he appears to be trying too hard.  

TIL Craig Wright is 95% of the pro-trolls in here!

Has he been planning this for years?

He has a complicated web of half a dozen companies, going back several years, whose main sources of revenue seem to be private investment and subsidies given by the Australian government to R&D companies.  To justify the latter, he used deals between his own companies and his family trust fund.  At one point he claimed that one of his entities bought private software from another of his entities, for tens of millions of dollars -- allegedly paid with bitcoin.  And he tried to use that deal to get more R&D subsidy money.

So, for several years he has had two possible motives to pretend to be Satoshi: to dupe investors, and to explain to the Australian government how he could have so much bitcoin.

Thank you for this.


In other news I wasn't correct that we had left the 440s behind.  No surprise there Grin  I know that there is so much BS to CW but didn't realize the depth of the the story.
