...Beanie Baby...

There ya go.

Maybe you have the wrong strategy?
It is never too late to change something

I had the same strategy, but cut my loose at 380.
Since then, unicorns and much profit.

I've yet to see a Beanie Baby ATM!

seems quite ambitious, but wow.

http://slur.io/

How do people verify if the data sold is real and not fake?

Not sure, personally i already see a ton of ways to exploit this site as a seller. So i cant really see anyone sane seriosly considering buying anything.

who knows waht the future holds:

Two lessons here:

All information will be on the market.
This market will exist whether you like it or not.
Also, by will, I mean already.

We have already seen WikiLeaks and Edward Snowden open the floodgates for State secrets (which include your secrets). We have also already seen Bitcoin enable the Fappening marketplace of celebrity nude pictures.

And now a website promoted by WikiLeaks’s Twitter account wants to take it to the next level. Slur.io promises to be WikiLeaks 2.0:

 "Slur is an open source, decentralized and anonymous marketplace for the selling of secret information in exchange for bitcoin. Slur is written in C and operates over the Tor network with bitcoin transactions through libbitcoin. Both buyers and sellers are fully anonymous and there are no restrictions on the data that is auctioned. There is no charge to buy or sell on the Slur marketplace except in the case of a dispute, where a token sum is paid to volunteers."

For everything from trade secrets to State secrets to zero-day exploits to “the complete databases of social media sites like facebook,” there will be a price in Bitcoin.

I would recommend that anyone alive in 2014 not only assume that their secrets will be leaked, but live as though they have already been leaked.

I think that would be called a vending machine.

Maybe they have one in Japan. I've heard they have some very interesting vending machines there.

If just 0.4% of the world population will want to own one BTC each, there will NEVER be enough to go around.

So bloodbath in 3, 2, 1?

There ya go.  

You know why everyone compares bitcoins with Beanie Babies, right?  Both based on the same gimmick - artificial scarcity

We must get this volatility under control.

We are.
Volatility is decreasing since day one (infinite volatility from zero to 0.01 cent).
You can't expect it to be a sudden flatliner one day.
We will reach a flat line when the market cap is representing it's true value, not it future value like now.
Right now we are speculating on the future value of bitcoin, therefor we go so much up and down because we have a hard time predicting what the future value will be.
On the other hand you can find a pretty straight trendline throughout the price untill now.
There will be some pumps and dumps on the way up, but when we get there the ride will become easier.
It also means that there won't be as much profit in the future as you can get right now.

Vending machines only give you Beanie Babies for fiat, not the other way around, so they are not quite the same...

Yep, everyone without a clue...

[JorgeStolfi]

You can't split a Beanie Baby into 100,000,000 pieces and still have them be useful...

Ah, but that problem will be solved by Sidebeanies pegged 1:100000 to actual Beanies!

Silverspoon = LambChop?

Clearly yes?

Why do you think I chose brony babies for the wall o' FUD pix I posted to Silverspoon?

OK, "every sane adult," if you wanna be a stickler.

There were those machines in shopping malls, where the kid puts in a coin and gets to "mine" a stuffed animal with a robot claw.  Would that qualify as a beanie ATM + mining rig, all in one?

(Rushing to the patent office with the design of a coin-operated bitcoins-mined-while-you-wait machine.)

LambChop why the new account?
Did your old one get banned or is this a poorly thought out multi account FUD campaign?

What is it about you bitcoiners that makes you so paranoid?  I guess constantly getting scammed helps, but you guys are off the charts
