OT : Conspiracy Theory of the Day - California Fires
Hmmm, let's see.... when the economy has a major downturn and people start struggling to pay their monthly bills, what is one monthly service bill that people think they can shed and get away with it?
Yep, you guessed it, it's their monthly Home Insurance payment.
And when this starts to happen nationwide by the hundreds of thousands, millions of citizens, the Insurance Megacorps overlords start to get very upset. Then as they start to lose even more money, they get desperate. How would the Insurance Megacorps go about putting the fear of God back into those citizens to sign back up for their home insurance?
Hmmm....maybe....mega fires....?? DEW?
Nah. Just coincidence, quack theory, blah blah.
Or...?
Why did 6 out of the 10 deadliest and costliest California fires in *history* happen just since 2015?
What about.. Climate change? Look at the recent rains in Arabian peninsula for example, not very common, or is that HAARP? There doesn't have to be a conspiracy theory behind everything and the climate is really changing. Anyone who travels more than average could say that I guess. It's changing all over the world, old norms are not in place anymore. (Just woke up at 4am with wind being from the wrong direction and rain smashing to my window, abnormally loud)

What if I told you it's neither a conspiracy nor any climate bullshit... but just a DAMN FIRE?
Shit happens. Get over it.

As a world traveler I was able to keep my bitcoins on Bitfinex even though they didn't allow US users. The requirements by exchanges and the regulations they're trying to avoid revolve around US residents, not US citizens. If he is outside of the US long enough and stays in one place long enough he can establish residency outside of the US and be fine.

A problem with this post is that the contents are NOT bitcoin specific, so such failings in the contents could wrongly imply that alt coiners are just as enlightened as bitcoiners. Such failure/refusal to specify bitcoin in the image is definitely problematic because it could mislead regular peeps into investing into shitcoins rather than bitcoin. Ahhh but we are in a Bitcoin thread, so it should be obvious.

Ahhh but we are in a Bitcoin thread, so it should be obvious. I agree with you that in this thread, the bitcoin topic is mostly obvious, but we have so much misinformation from altcoiners and shit coiners attempting to dilute the bitcoin message (I agree that V8 does not tend to dilute in such way), and I still questioned whether the meme was custom-made for this thread and whether it could have been disambiguated a bit better. Actually, I was about to send an smerit to V8 because of the humor of such image (I had immediately thought about Plato's cave allegory), but when I noticed the lack of bitcoin specificity, my smerit sending finger went completely and unambigously limp. Thereafter, I was not able to resuscitate such limp, wimpy and non-cooperating finger.

That would probably require an actual resident ID of another country.

It's not my fault you guys are NPCs. I sound like any normal human male from the year -5000bc to 1950. Humans have not physically changed in that long time period, you were just brainwashed into thinking abnormally. We are the elite 1% of crackpots, dreamers, anarchists, and nutjobs. If I were to buy into the NPC meme, it would be clear that all of you nocoiners are NPCs. You're right. People that hold no physical coins are repulsive.

Plus doesn't bitmain own 1MM of bcash? Can't wait for them to start shit slinging and offloading each others bcash versions. But something is telling me that Jihan's finances are not as good as CSWs PS: Is roach hating Jews or pumping silver above?

You are overreacting again, Roach. Last time I checked, most civilized countries use 111 as the strike out limit. Haven't you ever heard of baseball? Anything less than 111 is not sufficient.

Hang onto your hats. Things are about to get fucky. 1. Tether is sinking in value again as the spread between Bitfinex and Bitstamp blows out. 2. The Bcash fork is in 2 days. I think we are going to see some significant volatility.  Top line is BSP / BFX spread. Middle line is Tether / USD spread. Bottom line in volume oscillator on Tether / USD spread.

I think we are going to see some significant volatility.  Top line is BSP / BFX spread. Middle line is Tether / USD spread. Bottom line in volume oscillator on Tether / USD spread. Why you so excited? Nothing is really happening. The spread between USD tether based exchanges and not came down to $50 then up to $100 and back down and then again currently up... perhaps around $140 to $170.. depending on the exact moment and which exchange(s). Movement of USD tether? A bit, I suppose. Does it mean anything? Maybe, maybe not. Sure, we are still, also, waiting to see what is going to happen with the Bcash fork.. but so far nothing too much... there was a bit of a pump last week, and now that particular pump seems to have been dying out, yet maybe there could be another last minute pump of bcash right before the fork.. then depending on if those bcash nutters really fork, then there could be a dump of bcash thereafter.... but maybe not.. and if so, how is bitcoin going to respond to whatever happens? You are assuming that bitcoin is going to respond negatively, which could happen if the bcash fork actually does not happen, but you are assuming that the bcash fork is going to happen... so if the bcash fork does actually happen, then that might be a bit bullish for bitcoin.. or at least not strictly bearish as you seem to want to presume, and seem to be attempting to make a case for (when there is no real case)... for what reason? I am not sure. hopium? perhaps? Perhaps?

If anything I see the BCH fork as bullish for bitcoin. People are presumably going to either cash out their shit fork coin to fiat or/and convert it to bitcoin.
I think we’ll see the bitcoin price go up on the day or a few days after their fork.

I tend to agree with you too, unless they actually do not fork, and then just postpone their drama for a later date.. which would probably be the most bullish pump thing that bcash could do... And, I would not put it past them to milk as much manipulation as they can out of the situation that is nearly 100% in their ability to control... those quasi-centralized fuckheads.
