it's close to pointless to be a lawyer in crypto/blockchain

people with either trading or coding skills are making huge money or being super creative, or both

law is irrelevant to them & to the tech

I get how most lawyers either go native or become no-coiners

...

the regulators failed on every possible level

they could've created a compliant path for Reg A+s and Reg CFs on Ethereum and they just sat around and went after Kik and Telegram

they'll be totally lost on DeFi, I don't think they'll know where to start, it's way beyond them

good 'law' thread

Well, after reading twice I still can't decipher what the guy's argument is all about 

[nutildah]

shilling it harder than a Saigon whore.

I had to depart with one merit for this reference as it indicates a Vietnam War era whore as opposed to a modern whore. Because if it were such it would be referred to as a Ho Chi Minh City whore.

Had I been a presidential candidate, surely I'd have begged you on my knees to become my VP running mate.

edit: my most shocking findings from the first 20-so pages were that 1. staying on-topic was actually a rule mentioned in OP and 2. most charts, pictures, memes and so on, have disappeared for eternity's "Image Proxy: Invalid Image"...

Is this a new trend, like people who get off on car crashes?

That's the second picture like that I saw, in the other a man was rimming this fellow up against a car. Again in the midst of a riot.

 I can't even even about that. Things are getting crazy in parts of the country. Really don't like what BLM and Antifa are trying to foment.

I'm no Crypto CEO, but I stand by my earlier, very conservative (near-bearish) predictions for 2020/2021:

2020 (Halving): $8500
2020 (EOY): $13,000 <-- Predicted
2021 (Q4): $30,000 <-- Predicted

I will be so happy to be proven wrong though...

~ Am I missing something?

Not much really, just the fud that attacks mining all the time, whether China fud or USA, which stalls the ever-up hashrate sometimes.

CCP really wants bitcoin out of China (lol) and USA has mixed success getting it in.

Let's say that 2/3 of BTC mining got knocked out for a variety of reasons in the coming months, then of course, there would be drama and FUD spreading, but at the same time BTC difficulty level is going to adapt every two weeks as the hashpower changes, in order to adjust to whatever might be going on, and king daddy could give less than two shits about from where (or what jurisdiction) such hashpower comes, and king daddy gives less than two shits if 95% of the hashpower leaves.  Of course, if there is lower hashpower happens, then there could be means to attack it while using less amount of resources, too. 

maybe depends on where that hash that disappears from. what if its from mostly one or two of the top pools. if one of the remaining pools suddenly has over 51% of that remaining hashpower there could be some fear of that pool taking advantage of it for nefarious purposes. that type of drama did happen years back and although it was settled pretty fast (the pool that had near/over 51% prevented new miners from joining iirc) if it happens again maybe the price would be affected.

i dont really keep track of the btc pool hash distribution as i just mine shitcoins on auto exchange pools for btc. someone here will likely have some insight on that (philip maybe?).

i just found out Dish network (satellite tv for those who dont recognize the name) takes bitcoin as payment lol. old news i guess but i just noticed yesterday while in my account. probably through a 3rd party, not directly.. i didnt bother to check that far.

Mhh: although I would very like the above picture to be true, also either one of the two version is photo edited:

Also very likely all the pictures taken in the seconds immediately close to this one might have been edited.

Yes, I am fun at parties. Hope this doesn’t make me gain the ignore status 😑

Good idea, unarmed but chasing and attacking a man carrying an AR-15.
