Two Hacker Groups Responsible for As Much as $1 Billion in Stolen Crypto

https://ci.covesting.io/news/cryptocurrency-news/two-hacker-groups-responsible-much-1-billion-stolen-crypto

"Blockchain analysis firm Chainalysis has revealed new data that suggests that two cyber-criminal rings could be responsible for the majority of cryptocurrency stolen in recent years.

While there are dozens of hacker groups across the globe, and many more individual hackers working in solitary, two specific groups are said to be responsible for as much as $1 billion in stolen cryptocurrencies, according to a new report featured in the Wall Street Journal.

New research from Chainalysis claims that two groups, only referred to as Alpha and Beta, are responsible for an overwhelming majority of all cryptocurrencies stolen as part of scams. These scams often include phishing attacks, Twitter giveaway schemes, and much more."

Probably CIA and the FEDs
They are are the ones that want to kill crypto.
wait...
Maybe the Roger VER group or the Craig Wright group...
wait..
One thing is clear..
Few people are trying to kill it (BTC)!

Former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz: 'I am seriously thinking of running for President'

https://www.chepicap.com/en/news/5547/bakkt-ceo-gives-insight-into-the-starbucks-partnership-and-the-btc-futures-delay.html

 ‘Why Starbucks?’, Loeffler said the idea originated because they wanted “to be able to give their customers more options in their ability to pay… to be able to pay with Bitcoin." Their partnership with Starbucks will see the creation of a system that will allow crypto-to-fiat conversions which will give customers the option to pay with cryptocurrencies.

"Howard Schultz is the founder, former chief executive officer (CEO), and single-largest shareholder of Starbucks. Schultz holds 33 million shares directly and 1.7 million shares indirectly through trusts as of Jun. 26, 2018. Schultz joined the Starbucks Coffee Company as the director of retail and marketing in 1982.Dec 13, 2018"

Hmmmm..... possible next President is the biggest shareholder of a company partnering with Bakkt to sell coffee for Bitcoins.

Bullish AF

Is this shit for real? Fucking jews.

Why "Fucking" jews?  

But yes you would expect jewish people to find a cure for war first, since they are mostly dying from exchanging of missiles and bullets in their part of the world ...  

If I have to spell it out I won't feel funny anymore.

Also partially curious to read about some Roach fantasies regarding this. Something like Jews throwing the world into disarray by indirectly increasing human population to unsustainable levels. How dare they cure cancer.

Crypto Exchange QaudrigaCX Goes Offline, Claims Maintenance Issues

https://cointelegraph.com/news/crypto-exchange-qaudrigacx-goes-offline-claims-maintenance-issues

"Canadian cryptocurrency exchange QuadrigaCX is down for maintenance, according to an announcement on its webpage on Jan. 28. The exchange, which has been wrapped up in legal troubles with the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC), is inaccessible as of press time.
...
The exchanges users, some of whom have purportedly been unable to access or withdraw their funds for months, took to Reddit and Twitter. One user asked, “Shouldn't you let your customer know before taking it down?” Some users on a Reddit post speculated as to whether the exchange had gone insolvent. One commenter stated, “They will declare insolvency due to an inability to find a suitable bank to host an account and facilitate transfers.”

 Thank you JBreher for giving me the heads up about Jan 3rd proof of keys!  I am still proving and very grateful for the heads up.  I might otherwise have been crying about this news.

You would be free to pursue this desire. The kind Jews would give you their blessing as well and maybe some wise advice. You can even purchase a weight set made out of silver or gold for a few satoshis.
