Short squeeze

Concerned that blockchain bloat will lead to centralization? Storing less than 4 GB of data once required the budget of a superpower and a warehouse full of punched cards. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/87/IBM_card_storage.NARA.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_card

The point is that he's not going to get burnt because it's not his coins he's playing with.

I just think 9.8% of voters need to quit gurgling old pirate balls!  Kiss

He isn't doing anyone a favor, and he's only doing minimal good for the market, which will only have very short term effects.

Anyone taking part in pirate's "BANK" is not a true bitcoiner, and has let their greed black out what bitcoin is all about.

They lent their coins to a man who makes it his mission to grab money from everyone and anyone

fucking sad.

Yes...

Satoshidice is an independently verifiable fair online gambling game that runs using the block chain with very little overhead.

Satoshi dice is a very pure Bitcoin 'thing' IMO.

The point is that he's not going to get burnt because it's not his coins he's playing with.

Or in other words in the event of a short squeeze default? I suppose that is something for his lenders to consider. The more relevant question for the rest of us is: What would be the impact on the overall market of a pirate default?

The point being, why get emotional over how someone else chooses to spend/invest/waste their hard earned money?
