Just Sold $1k worth of Bitcoins to... a Black Guy (gasp)

I've seen all of the Andreas Antonopoulos videos on YouTube speaking to various audiences.  They're truly inspirational but gave me the impression that Bitcoin in the United States was mainly for white people with a few token Asians sprinkled here and there.

Anyhow, I have an advertisement for local in-person cash trades for Bitcoin.  Trades are rare in my area, but I like to proliferate the coin whenever I can.  Plus, at my asking price the transaction would result in a relatively significant amount of pocket change.  So, I get a request to meet at my local Zoo parking lot.  Apparently, it was a person from one of America's largest cities driving in from out of town to visit our world famous local Zoo. But it just set off a few alarms.   How hard is it to get Bitcoins from the large city that he's from?  Meet at Zoo parking lot?  My ad specifically states to meet at Starbucks or McDonalds mainly for Internet access but also because of cameras everywhere.  Lastly, the guy sounded... black.  

Anyhow, I go ahead and call and have him meet me at the Starbucks nearest to the zoo.  I was getting nervous, even started to sweat after getting off the call.  Should I just cancel?  He could then give me my first bad feedback.   What if I get mugged.  I thought to myself what a horrible person I'd be cancelling the meet just because the guy sounded black.  Me being the weanie, I brought "muscle" just in case the guy tried to strong arm me into inputting my Google 2FA to validate the escrow and steal my coins.  My muscle was a fat guy that plays video games all day in his mother's basement.  No way would he get physical, but his orders were to video record from another table pretending to be a random customer.  

The young guy finally shows up with basketball jersey tank top showing off his tattoos and wild urban cut afro.  He looked part Latino and Black and after inquiring about my handle, put down his phone to pull out the money.   The guy's smart phone had a shattered screen.  He has 1k to buy Bitcoin but can't even get a replacement screen for his phone?  After handing me 1k in hundred dollar bills, I broke out my counterfeit pen with UV light and validated the bills, verified the stripe was in the correct spot with the UV light.  He said, "You're a smart man."  Everything looked good and transferred the funds to the buyer.  

He even gave me the # (pound).  You know, when you knock fists like players do in basketball?  

Worked out well.  Have to admit, it was a rush.  Treated my fat friend to lunch at the nearby restaurant.

Going to hit a gentlemen's club tonight.

fake.  the story is made up.  The clues are abound. 

1. too many unnecessary details
2. trolling
3. purposely confessing to something that is an attention getter.
4. Sensationalistic title.

case closed.

get out of here, troll (ie: OP).  As the OP would yourself say to others: your kind don't belong here.

I asked my buddy Ted Nugent what he thought about this thread and he shot my dog.

Proof for the naysayers.  

Didn't you say you treated your friend to lunch and hit the strip club??? How in the world do you still have 1,000 for the picture after all that fun? Sounds fishy lol

[Spearmint]

Since when was Ted Nugent a cop?

[Maidak]

Fkn white people.

You guys realize the story is most likely either a comedians attempt to be funny or a black man attempting to troll bait white people for a laugh.
Look at his sig,his post history, his username, the absurdity of his story and the images.

I think you hit the nail on the head.

I asked my buddy Ted Nugent what he thought about this thread and he shot my dog shit in his pants.

There. I fixed that for you.

BTC has nothing to do with race... You putting it that way makes it seem pretty darn racist if any.. Should watch how you word things next time

[Sheldor333]

Why would you be surprised by something like that. I don't see anything weird with that at all, just another smart human that decided to buy some bitcoins and invest in his future, nothing more, nothing less.

[abercrombie]

What bothers me more is the fact that OP sold bitcoins ... at this price... insane
Talk about a bad calls ..

Check the date of the OP and add a percentage to Bitstamp that would allow one to continue with a perceived risky situation and it turns out to be a good trade.  

Bitstamp Aug 16 $496 (current)
Bitstamp Aug 03 $585

FWIW, bought 5 BTC yesterday.  Will buy more on continued weakness.

agree

90% of bitcoiners are racist.

There is racism, and than there is Racism... 99.9% of humans have subconscious prejudices; take the test to find out you are "racist" too:

In-group and out-group preferences are innate biologically despite acknowledging racism is illusory because in reality an African man is closer to an albino swede genetically than his follow African neighbor 5 km away.

[QuestionAuthority]

90% of bitcoiners are racist white/Asian racists. This makes them the worst kind of black hating racist.

FTFY

Just go buy some blackcoin... this will prove you're not racist.

I'm as white as virgin Vermont snow but I never feel quite right unless I'm in a diverse crowd, probably because I grew up in a ghetto. And those of you with a more sheltered view of the world... just hope or pray our darker skinned brothers and sisters get into cryptos. If they don't it's a dead end.

Dumb story period.. Everyone buys bitcoins.
