as an aside, the term "zhoutonged" apparently lives on... That dude could possibly be the next bill gates, depending on how he plays this out. He's permanently a meme now, despite any efforts against it. It is interesting to see how that in particular will play out and it is ... STILL extremely exciting to be part of this community (and perhaps history in general!) ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Weeelllll... dude DID know his Ruby. And he sold it out to other people -- kinda smart -- and lol, he told me via skype, "I don't like BTC much". Something about it being too volatile :-P But good marks on coining the meme ... it is sure to go down in history! Have you tried Bitfinex yet??? ahahahahhahahahahahhahahahaha and lolz.

Apparently it's just not being Bill Gates. zhoutong made a the first trading platform which alowed users to short sell bitcoin (or go long) with leverage( meaning you could trade with up to 10times more money then you actually had in the account) the catch was if you went short and the price went up to much all your funds would go to zhoutong. so we called it getting zhoutonged

Prepare to die $16 wall, prepare to die, any of you sellers want to simply remove the wall so you don't become panic buyers in a couple days?

Not exactly... He sold out to Intersango, and then it "got hacked"... And now it's in liquidation. Edit: at the time BTC was in a downward trend, so any tool that facilitated shorting (especially on leverage) was welcome and enticing -- Bitcoinica was said tool.

lol, you know thats not shorting right, thats just not being long ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) So what is being zhoutonged? "From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In finance, short selling (also known as shorting or going short) is the practice of selling securities or other financial instruments, with the intention of subsequently repurchasing them ("covering") at a lower price" I'm no expert but is what Adam doing not "shorting"? Or does shorting have another definition?
