Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

I hope you've learned something here, besides what it feels like to be crushed by a 75,000 horsepower iCEMAKER.

What's the safe word again?

@Fatman & BMB, too many TLAs, getting confused.

NLC is probably right.

JVP confirmed that CW was the Satashi Nakamoto he met in 2005. So if it's a scam then he's in on it too.

This interview with him sucks butt. I'm not interested in what he has to say after all this cryptic shit.

Nobody is forcing you to have an opinion. Just kick your shoes off, lean back and relax.

I think the most sensible theory going is that Kleiman was the voice of Satoshi on this forum; the times during which our Satoshi posted seems to suggest he was doing it from the states. I think Wright probably wrote the white paper and had Kleiman edit it? And it was probably Wright communicating with Gavin by email.

Or not. But it has to have been someone, and a bunch of this stuff fits. Even if CSW happens to be some kind of nut. Let's face it...

Looks like the two of you want to use scant evidence and nearly pure conjecture to continue this matter when more easily and readily available means to prove (if CW had been involved as Satoshi) exist and are not being employed... in other words, you are attempting to spread FUCD... based on pure conjecture when the actual direct evidence and logic supports the contrary conclusion that Wright is a credential reliant, fucking phoney and wanna be scam artist.

[BlindMayorBitcorn]

By being ready to continue this matter, do you mean buying him dinner? I'm just not ready to close my mind to possibilities.

You see??? we must be heading into unchartered territory because even the European Central Bank is on board regarding the bullshit nature of the Wright=Satoshi claims.

I think you're right in saying that he's a "wanna be scam artist" atm. Unintentionally, of course, but it doesn't happen often so let's celebrate it.

Don't relax too much. People will think you're smug.

Maybe it is just me, but I don't see how you could be either a scam artist or a "wanna be scam artist"   "unintentionally"?


My understanding of the term (and how I was using the term) "scam artist" has intentionality built into it... otherwise the conduct does not rise to the level of "scam artist.".. .

Possible parsing error, so I added some text effects.
Repent while you still can, cryptocriminals!

Digital currency firm co-founder gets 20 years in U.S. prison
http://www.reuters.com/article/usa-cyber-libertyreserve-idUSL2N18326D
May 6 - The co-founder of Liberty Reserve, the operator of what had been a widely-used digital currency, was sentenced to 20 years in prison on Friday for conspiring to help cyber criminals launder hundreds of millions of dollars using its services.

Arthur Budovsky, 42, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Denise Cote in Manhattan, who said a substantial punishment was warranted for his role in running a money laundering operation that prosecutors said was of unprecedented scope.

where's segwit?  

Segwit is (as promised) right here:

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/7910

every day without an inch of movement from Blockstream, increases the possibility. The fact that they start bringing up PoW changes when backed into a corner gives even more weight to the idea that they would rather go to war than compromise to 2MB.

Blockstream is moving rapidly on segwit, sidechains, and Lightning.  They are meticulously preparing Bitcoin to be carefully scaled ASAP.

Classic, OTOH, is spreading '2MB? Not much testing needed' nonsense.

And yes, we will "go to war" to defend Bitcoin's diverse/diffuse/defensible/resilient characteristics, from which its key interesting property of antifragility emerges.

Whine about it all you want.  Nothing you do can move our Honey Badger's needle one iota.  You have no power here.

You're the one whining. We're winning.

Now who is the one whining?  You.

Now who is the one winning?  Me.

I hope you've learned something here, besides what it feels like to be crushed by a 75,000 horsepower iCEBREAKER.

Cool! I managed to annoy wINDBREAKER!

Success!!!

Edit: a post from January? Man, I must really have gotten under his skin. This feels sooooo gooood!

I'll take that as a grudging (less than graceful, borderline creepy) concession.   

The "remember this" post from January demonstrates I have the patience to wait you out and serve your comeuppance iCE cold.   

Are you going to try to spin and paint Gavin's summary dismissal with some kid of pro-Classic gloss?

Or is the best excuse/distraction you can come up with "ZOMG JANUARY POST WAS FROM JANUARY?"   

[White sugar]

Just noticed you can buy games in Steam using Bitcoin.
Just bought to the moon with BTC using Bitpay.

It doesn't matter to the code, but it matters who has access to the coins and when. Maybe he doesn't give a shit if we believe him. Maybe he was using Gavin to confirm him for his Tulip Trustee. Idk.

There are approximately seven billion candidates who could be Satoshi based on "not giving a shit". So when I hear this argument, especially regarding a man who has gone to some lengths to convince us, I picture a very leaky bucket indeed.

I think the least sensible theories are those based on associations made from a single, unattested, unreliable source.

And the stampeding herds of noisy Gavinista Lolcows are more comedy than adversity.

The once-mighty herds of Gavinista Lolcows, sadly, are dying.  But I still wake up laughing at their hubris and folly.   

They are afflicted with a malaise no amount of spin and cheerleading can cure.

Even such dumb beasts possess an intuitive inkling of impending doom.  Perhaps they can smell the death pheromones wafting from Core's Darwinian slaughterhouse.

Gavininsta Lolcows once roamed the plains of Bitcoin in great numbers.  Now they are reduced to writing "we still love Gavin even if he lied and/or is stupid" fanfic on /r/btc.

Wright ... who's ready for some friday night party?

[r0ach]

[marcus_of_augustus]

So let's do a count up who's short right now?

R3 - Ian Grigg is an adviser and had inside knowledge of "satoshi" reveal so many connections with a consortium of 42 banks potentially sitting on short positions put on since 470 (April 27 high)

Gavinistas?? yeh not likely he leaked

Matonis - maybe a few sneaky shorts before the 'satoshi' reveal

JVP - evoorhees, Roger Ver?

Wright and co

Economist, BBC, and GQ(wtf?) connections maybe got some bitcoin shorts on before the reveal

Should be fun watching the unwind ...  

[UngratefulTony]

Mewn thyme.

If you are (not!) sitting on BTC, the time to buy more is $460+. April segwit FTW.

Losing half your market cap in a month ain't all that bad. The Blockstream Bear Hug is bound to stir up a little XMR bubble again soon, if our principles hodl.
