Personally, I can't wait. Would love to let the proverbial cat out of the bag, but I'm sworn to secrecy. You're welcome to guess.

Don't worry! It's not scary or weird. It's... Damn you! You almost tricked me, again.

It's not software or it would be two weeks. Is it a Trade Hill website facelift?

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

Proverbial cats are prone to death by curiosity.

Curiosity killed the cat, but in two more days, we'll bring him back.

Back on topic:
Hello, everyone. My name is Phinnaeus Gage and I live in Japan. Only kidding! I live in the US and my moniker is a pseudonym. Reason being: I want to remain...wait for it...anonymous. Yes, I enjoy injecting humor in my posts.

For the past 3 days, I've spent hours reading the messages on this forum. Yesterday, I spent eight hours reading everything @Allinvain wrote. I'm not a reporter of any kind, but wanted to see if I could help solve the missing bitcoins mystery. More on that in later posts after I past the newbie status.

I'm not a troll in any sense of the word.

My main objective is to start another "bitcoin only" commerce site, hence the joining of this forum. I won't be seeking suggestions, or the like, and will only share the site once it's up and running.

What I've enjoy about reading this forum is how the members, for the most part, have a high command of the English language. Thank you for that. I hope my contributations pass muster.

In closing, soon they'll may be an Onion headline that'll read: Chinese Prisoners Forced to Mine Bitcoins

Is this it?

Note to self: Delete old posts I've penned so that they don't come back to haunt me--starting with the quoted one above.

Or, I can try this ploy:

That was not me, notme, but good find, nonetheless. Thanks for the humor, but this thread has nothing to do with that. Please guess again.

Is it 12/12/11? The calendar year before 12/12/12?

The date is the 12th, but has nothing to do with 12-12-12, or the like. But I could have easily used the 13th, but opt for the 12th to stray from that unlucky date, coupled with 12-12-(11 or 12) looks better.

I hate that expression, and every time someone says it, I feel obligated to post this (also it's my favorite poem)

Also, my mom, dad, and brother were born on the 13th, and I was born on the 12th at 9:45pm

Unless we rise up as one and demand change!!!!  Overthrow the time keeping overlords!!!!

If that ever had a chance of happening, the Dr. would make you cease to exist if you had any part of it.

Since you are here, you have nothing to do with it and/or it will never happen.
