I dunno, but he's had most of a year to buy back lower on the sly.

MICROSOFT CEO ON THE POWER OF AZURE CLOUD / ETH : ( TALKING TO TECH STUDENTS IN INDIA)   : https://youtu.be/hw00mtT9cLg

Is it really necessary to promote ETH here? I mean this is a Bitcoin speculation thread... I understand maybe one or two times promoting it, but I think you might be going a little too far with constant links and references to it.  

Interesting speech by CEO of Microsoft made in India ...to a bunch of IT students: https://youtu.be/hw00mtT9cLg   "Rich cloud infrastructure"  "In fact the way I decscribe it is, every device creates this exchaust of data, and the cloud and the power in the cloud can converge that into the fuel...and the intelligence that empowers every one of your experiences". - MICROSOFT AZURE. (quote starts at 5:19)

Another interesting interview made last month (get to know Microsoft and their future vision further): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BourVzXU5o    (starts talking about power of AZURE at 7:00)

Paris Microsoft Enterprise group meeting interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQ8Hiss2EkE      - shot back before Sataya was CEO -- Satya was responsible for building and running Microsoft's computing platforms, developer tools and cloud services. He and his team deliver the "Cloud OS." and was Rumored to be on the short list for CEO at this time, he shares his views on the future.

This all has to do with Bitcoin....this will all drive the price of BTC up in turn. Don't you see..its a win win win. The future of BTC is very bright and getting even brighter because of this.

Someone who preferred $9,000,000.

Seemed like a pretty open and fair way to liquidate such a huge number of coins, and the psychology after the action was pretty positive.

Was this before or after what we now know to have been Ethereum dumping their war-chest funding their project?

The ethereum btc address was known, and it didn't get sold all at once. I would go digging but I don't care that much. They were down to a few thousand coins at last glance. And iirc it was never 30k.

He was the bearwhale.

I think I remember that now. It's been a crazy year.

Not unless he mined a bunch of coins later. The early blocks that we know Satoshi mined have coins that have never moved.

Not unless he mined a bunch of coins later. The early blocks that we know Matoshi mined have coins that have never moved.

Not Satoshi was the bearwhale. The bearwhale was the bearwhale. The 'he' denotes the person (not necessarily Satoshi) who was the bearwhale...

[SheHadMANHands]

Meant it doesn't matter in either case.

Bearwhale was the beast for his time and place.  And he is no more.

Or is he...

In theory I guess he could just be bigger now. Scary thought?

He was the Lone Ranger.

Way out west there was this fella... fella I wanna tell ya about. Fella by the name of [redacted]. At least that was the handle his loving parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. [redacted], he called himself "The Bearwhale". Now, "Bearwhale" - that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then there was a lot about the Bearwhale that didn't make a whole lot of sense. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place so darned interestin'.

They call Bitstamp the "Stamp of Bits." I didn't find it to be that, exactly. But I'll allow there are some nice folks there. 'Course I can't say I've seen okcoin, and I ain't never been to Bulgaria. And I ain't never seen no Lawsky in his damned undies, so the feller says. But I'll tell you what - after seeing Bitstamp, and this here story I'm about to unfold, well, I guess I seen somethin' every bit as stupefyin' as you'd see in any of them other places. And in Slovenian, too. So I can die with a smile on my face, without feelin' like the good Lord gypped me.

Now this here story I'm about to unfold took place back in the late '2014s - just about the time of our conflict with Putin and the separatists. I only mention it because sometimes there's a man... I won't say a hero, 'cause, what's a hero? But sometimes, there's a man. And I'm talkin' about the Bearwhale here. Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that's the Bearwhale, at Bitstamp. And even if he's a lazy man - and the Bearwhale was most certainly that. Quite possibly the laziest in Bitcoinia, which would place him high in the runnin' for laziest worldwide. But sometimes there's a man, sometimes, there's a man. Aw. I lost my train of thought here. But... aw, hell. I've done introduced him enough.

Explanation

[aminorex]

I expect it to decline starting today.  Top is in for the next few weeks, if so.  My 40% alternative scenario is for 3 more weeks going up, touching 300. 

It went up more than my wildest hopes could imagine.  I haven't seen that happen since 2013.  Impressed, I am.  I don't see a reason why it should not continue to exceed my expectations during the rest of the week.  I had might as well up my stake.

[aminorex]

I should've rephrased that as present usage, not theoretical possibilities.

I buy stuff with it.  That's what it's for.  Private transactions, private holdings.  No tracking.  If I wanted to buy stuff costing more than a few large, it would not be suitable, but so far my largest purchase was less than 10k US, so no problem.  Oh, and it's actually profitable to mine where I live, unlike BTC.
