You know that there is no "John" Winklevoss? They're named Cameron and Tyler. And why would you believe this is an account of theirs in the first place? |

Pretty aware, since my 10.8 BTC are there for more than 3 days. Few months ago I'd want hitman to find Mark for that amount.

Ok, I hate to pollute this thread with non-meme filled posts, but if I don't blurt this shit out, I probably won't remember it in the morning.
At 60:50 law guy #1 starts going off about how identity theft is their biggest issue.
Let me paraphrase
"Let's be clear, cyber crime, identity theft, are an international crime wave."
These guys don't even understand that bitcoin kills identity theft outright.
*edit*
60:13 for the start of the question
60:40 for the start of the answer (note the obvious amusement of the female panelist - I think I kinda like her attitude)
Where was this? look for Panel 1 Day 2- Law Enforcement and Virtual Currencies and then go to the times I list. I'm going to continue to point out some highlights, in my mind at least. here's another gem, around 67:57 where the law guy #2 talks a bit about his massive stash of bitcoin, "we seized it and we treat it as regular currency" -- also note at 68:40 law guy #1 doesn't really have an answer, or simply doesn't understand the question, so he falls back on the script of identity theft. hmm, so what if we had a new system where you assholes don't need to know my identity, then it wouldn't get fucking stloen!!!1 |

By a strange coincidence, 32150 oz of registered gold left the JPM vault in New York this week. Maybe Mark used it to buy a metric tonne of gold. |

Yuck why would you want China back? China is like a poison for Bitcoin. Too many people are excited over this.

As much as I would love it to be true, you say this happened yesterday, and the time for their fiat to hit their account is 2hrs? Well, one look at their trades in the last 24hrs says it's either untrue, or the chinese don't care.

nothing else interesting until 28:30 of Panel 2 Day 2- Virtual Currency Commerce and Consumer Protections this is not even a paraphrase, this is what I think she meant "so this means more protection of the private keys? those are like the credit card number?" I think that chick on the panel is starting to get it. <please note my statements are still pending confirmation> |
