All it makes me think of is that old SA thread about Arrakis or whatever those dumbshits who tried to homestead Texas desert land with nothing but like 3 gallons of water and a trunk full of twinkies.

That smug goon that bought a bunch of desert 100 miles from nowhere in Texas planned to solve the water problem by taking advantage of the service that trucks it in for you, so i'm sure a group of self made crypto millionaires will be perfectly fine

This reminds me of one of the older crypto scammers who wanted people on reddit to "invest" in his pot growing op in the california desert with chinese solar panels and stealing water from another county. And when people tried to ask for proof/pictures of his setup, the most he offered were badly 3D modeled greenhouses.

naem posted:why is it always in a desert If you want to build a new civilization you need a spot where nobody is already living. A spot nobody wants to live. Generally that's going to be out in the wilderness somewhere. The desert. The jungle. The ocean. The mountains. The arctic. Of the available uninhabited land the desert seems the easiest logistically. You build a store an have everything brought in. Who needs running water? It isn't like cryptonerds are planning on doing any gardening, right? Or bathing.

Anyone remember the poster that was trying to get funding for a theatre to illegally broadcast tailspin movies? I wanted to read some of the saga of the posts if anyone kept it! Not to mention his need to buy only a 94 Ford Explorer, and the second life nokill pet shelter.

Powered Descent posted:Logansryche! Oh, man, I remember this guy. He is (or at least was) in love with the idea of being a small or medium-size business owner but he can't be bothered even to do "two minutes on Google" levels of research before going begging for funding. I remember seeing his name crop up on a failed Kickstarter to start a guitar pick company, and the comments made it obvious how out-of-his-depth he was.

Ghost Leviathan posted:I really want to hear details if there are any It was just a snippet from this news article about Bitcoiners seeing backlash after flooding into Grant County Washington because they had the cheapest power in the country. https://www.seattletimes.com/business/bitcoin-backlash-as-miners-suck-up-electricity-stress-power-grids-in-central-washington/ Relevant quote: quote:But it’s not simply the scale of requests that is perplexing utility staff. Many would-be miners have no understanding of how large power purchases work. In one case this winter, miners from China landed their private jet at the local airport, drove a rental car to the visitor center at the Rocky Reach Dam, just north of Wenatchee, and, according to Chelan County PUD officials, politely asked to see the “dam master because we want to buy some electricity.”

I'm not really astounded by the $300mil that he snookered out of people to pay $4500/acre for useless goddamn desert land. 21 miles long by 5 miles wide. 105 square miles. That's the part that's a little weird to me. Who the gently caress needs that much $500/acre land? Crooks.

Tether released a letter from its shady offshore "financial group" stating that they have $1.8B in cash in their account (lol). The document was mysteriously modified (according to timestamps) before release.  I'm sure it's all legit though and they totally have all that money backing the tetherbucks. quote:It has been two weeks since tether, the "stablecoin" of choice for crypto day traders who need to quickly enter and exit positions in different alt coins, broke below its $1 peg to trade as low as 85 cents as long-simmering doubts about its dollar backing exploded back into view, stoked by rumors that several prominent exchanges were preparing to de-list it.
