I like how the guy defending bitcoins can only come up with that you should try and get five figures worth from probably a criminal, somehow, in Argentina then ????. Let's be (unreasonably)generous and give a huge benefit of the doubt here to bitcoin. Let's not consider actually even getting them, transferring them, cashing them out or that they have zero intrinsic value and a high risk of being lost or stolen. Just assume this labyrinthine bullshit that is bitcoin works flawlessly somehow. Nobody seems to be mentioning that there is a very likely chance that by the time you can cash out your bitcoins at your destination that you stand to lose a double digit percentage of your life savings just in retarded price swings because bitcoin is a currency backed by stupidity that fluctuates stupidly. Especially when you are talking about "Life Savings" amounts in the tens of thousands. The very act of selling large amounts of coins could trigger a sell off, which is hard to predict since, again, the currency is backed by stupidity. Is some stupid rear end in a top hat libertarian watching the market, uneasy that his wife is about to find out he took out a second mortgage to cover losing 100,000 on bitcoin and sells what he has left anticipating future losses maybe causing your 20,000 to now be worth 17,000? If the probability of that affecting your life savings isn't zero then maybe it's not a loving good currency or storage / transfer method of wealth. No the problem here is that too many people are agreeing that Bitcoins are dumb, and there needs to be a contrarian voice of reason to set everyone straight. Hey Argentina goon, take your life savings to a parking lot somewhere and hope that if you actually do get bitcoins that the price hasn't dropped 20% because the new issue of "Train Watch Digest" was delayed or something.

vxskud posted:I'm curious It is like a physicist and an engineer trying to fly a plane with absolutely no ploting experience. The physicist has aspergers and the engineer is a pathological liar with a fake degree and a history of running confidence scams. Neither of them is focusing on trying to fly the plane, because of the physicist's out of his skull on Chinese research chemicals and the engineer is constantly thinking about how to best fund his crippling gambling addiction. Both of them are aguing with each other about where they should fly the plane to: the engineer is looking for somewhere with legalised slavery and no drug/firearms control, whereas the physicist is insisting on prioritising child sex tourism hotspots. The argument has just got physical and both pilots are now stabbing each other with homemade shivs, they will likely bleed out within the hour. But none of this matters, because the plane is poorly engineered and can only fly at 30mph.

serious norman posted:Man accused of massive Dogecoin scams charged with raping 5 women This isn't getting enough love: This is the guy behind Moola, the guy who had his name changed to hide the shady poo poo under his old name and took dogecoin from a joke into something people took far too seriously. The forums discovered this guy when he started offering straight profit sharing shares with zero regard for any laws around that, and the resounding consensus was that he'd claim they got hacked and run with the money. Which is exactly what happened, plus 8 counts of rape.

How the gently caress can you even be responsible for "dogecoin scams"? That's almost like saying "this guy was responsible for massive monopoly money tax fraud". How do you take something like dogecoin seriously enough to even get scammed?

All this bitcoin talk is reminding me of one of the greatest posters on bitcoin talk: Dank. Dank was a perpetual burnout who had a dream. quote:By the end of this year, 2012, I believe I will be a highly known guitarist/musician. This time frame may seem unrealistically short, for I have only started playing electric guitar towards the end of August, but recent realizations have led me to believe this is possible. Humans have been evolving exponentially for some time now, with advances in technology and communication lessening the time needed for the same amount of change to occur. Logically, following this pattern, there will come a time when more change happens in an hour than has happened in the last millennium. Through meditation, connecting to a higher consciousness within, and communicating these ideas, I've had the epiphany that 2012 is a real event. It's not the end of the world and it's nothing to fear, the changes occurring through 2012 are completely spiritual. Humans are waking up from the illusion of our man-made society, our awareness is increasing and we are once again discovering the true spiritual nature of our universe and self. This burst of love gleaming through the world will manifest globally, this year, and with the increased self awareness and worldly consciousness (through communication/technology), it will stay among us. The truth can be found within one's self, and when the truth is found, it spreads like wildfire. More and more individuals are realizing, the only thing needed to be truly happy, is to act out of love. By the end of this year, we will reach a critical point where love is rampantly understood and sought upon, where more humans become in tune with our consciousness and leave behind their egos, along with the negativity associated with ego, such as greed, disease, war, power and fear. This power of love is what will give me the ability to effectively play guitar, from the soul, this year. His sound cloud is still up and running btw.

lol buying goatfather some red text seems a bit much imo the forums should make it more convenient to buy custom titles because it is just too much hassle to type in a 16 digit number from a card that i have in my wallet all the time. if only there was a way i could go to a different site (preferably one that is under investigation for money laundering), buy some dunning-krugerrands and then send them to a different site which will then send lowtax some dollars

like when you hear about how the founder of Silk Road kept a diary of all of his crimes on his laptop, or the guy who gave himself heat stroke with bitcoin mining, or all of the bitcoin exchanges that just sort of vanish overnight with nothing but a message like "lol sorry we're closed thanks for all the free coins" how can you not just laugh? It's this community that describes itself as tight-knit on reddit but everyone in it is constantly trying to gently caress everyone else.
