Phin - your posts always seem detailed and interesting, but I can almost never just quickly read your posts once and figure out what the heck you're trying to say. You need a "WTF does this mean?" sentence or two at the end of your posts.

Apologies, bud. Would you accept, "My dog ate it!"?

What I was eluding to is that the same group backing OKCoin had major hand in the production of the documentary The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin, especially if you consider...

http://theriseandriseofbitcoin.com/were-proud-to-announce/

We are proud to announce that “The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin” has been accepted as an Official Selection at the Tribeca Film Festival. The world premiere of the
documentary will take place on April 23rd at 5:30 PM at SVA Theatre 2 in Chelsea, NY.

After the premiere screening, there will be a panel discussion with the director of the film Nicholas Mross, our protagonist Daniel Mross, one of the characters from the film Charlie Shrem, and an undisclosed final panelist.

...and the philosophy of the Mross family.

Here's an interesting quote from Gatekeeper, who usually posts in the Speculation section, but this was in one of FinShaggy's threads, ironically, Fin being the last channel that Autumn Radtke subscribed to on YouTube:

maybe try to talk to people like this
http://www.newbitcoinworld.com/2013/04/incredible-us-producers-crowdfund.html
they may well be able to offer help or advice, if they made a documentary then surely they'd be decent at making a "reality" tv show or helping in some way

"Bitcoin crowdfunding has been used by U.S. co-producers Daronimax Media and 44th Floor Productions to finance the feature documentary from director Nicholas Mross"

might be a good point of contact, crowdfunding the project was a great idea

From the material posted, don't see what the connection between seed & spark and the film Rise and Rise of Bitcoin is.

I buy and sell barn wood. Seriously! Josh, of BFL, even claimed once that I don't buy it, but steal it - at night.  I also deal in relics antiques, albeit not as much as I used to when I used to set up next to Mike Wolfe at the Nashville Flea Market back in the day. Hell, I used to pick from Frank Fritz, who sat up behind Mike under the same pavilion next to the office on antique alley.

I'm probably one of the few here that got a perfect 800 on their SAT math section (732/English/comprehensive). I've became a better writer to express myself via Google and this forum.

BTW, the ROI on one board feet of reclaimed lumber is 200-500% -  profit!

Is this what Mark Karpeles was trying to relay with his coded(?) Batman logo link in that Pastebin interview?

Dark Knight Rises: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1345836/

Eight years after the Joker's reign of anarchy, the Dark Knight must return to defend Gotham City against the enigmatic jewel thief Catwoman and the ruthless mercenary Bane as the city teeters on the brink of complete annihilation.

For sake of argument, let's say that Mark Karpeles is a joker that likes to speak in riddles. We have Dark, as in Let There be Dark; Catwoman, as in Mark has a cat; Bane, as in Tibane, his cat's name; Satoshi Nakamoto is an enigma; Brink, as in a money transporter, and starts with the letter B; Gotham City, as in http://www.gothamgs.com. Add, whatever else I left out. (odd, that Bane was capitalized) <perhaps, this assessment is too tinfoilly>

How do you like the NSA and NIST connection?

[kokoarm]

I'd love to know what this is about as it seems interesting but I can't work out what is going on.

Just posting links and addresses and stuff doesn't really work if you don't know what connections are being made. How about an introduction, middle and conclusion in your posts PG?

[jc01480]

Phinn, I think you have the making of one serious book.  Although you might have to change the flow somewhat.

I used to do very complex investigations for an unnamed agency.  When I was first starting out I learned some valuable lessons.  The first lesson was to write my investigations in as plain English as possible.  In other words, don't write it like you're trying to explain it to your colleagues, write it like you are trying to explain it to the common person and (jury, prosecutor).  People and lawyers get lost in the technical jargon, innuendos, and implications.  You have to spell each point out and in chronological order, state specifically how they relate to the case, and what these facts have to do with the investigation itself.  I mastered this simple concept and the agency still uses some of these principles today to teach their young Agents how to 'splain things in a report.

I like reading your posts and I think you're on to something interesting, but I'll admit, my SAT scores weren't as good as yours.  I do have some trouble connecting the dots.  I hope you're archiving all of this information somewhere, too.  Seems you've connected not just a few actors, but an entire underground culture of some sick stuff. 

With this said I have to question your motivation behind this exposure.  And I pray it is not what I think it is.  Keep up the good work.

Thank you so kindly, jc01480, for the welcoming advice. I'll try to heed it.

I didn't really meant to brag about my SAT scores but, unfortunately, that's all the former educational cred I have, and if it wasn't for the shingle being lost due to Katina, I would've had it framed. Fuckin' HAARP!  

I usually do include more details when I pen an OP, but since it seemed so clear to this rod-in-head mind of mine, I thought it would also be clear to the reader, but I now do see some holes as I look in the mirror while removing the rod.

Tribeca Film Festival, where the premier of The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin was first shown, aside, the rest of the connections were made via one investor of OKCoin.
