It was twitter setting up a “please cyber bully this loser” function. The one good contribution to the world twitter has made

Pretty sure you need to pay for "Twitter Blue", their premium services, to use that nft feature as well

The article was an example of the evidence being presented to me, I just wondered if anyone had some link showing how 99% of it was all wash trading. CommieGIR posted:Surely a blog dedicated to *checks notes* positive analysis of the crypto market wouldn't write a report biased towards crypto! yes I know, Sorry maybe I wasn't clear.... Elerion posted:I love when people seriously quote reports like that as proof that crypto isn't used for illegal stuff. They usually like to compare it to something like UNODC's estimate that money laundering accounts for 2-5% of global GDP, which shows they don't even know what these terms mean.

the hexagon profile picture just made it easier for people to bully them, noted contrarian matt yglesias had a hexagon profile featuring his own big bald head and everyone mocked him so much he went back to the default shaped icon

Interesting thread on schrodinger's ape. Summary: the stolen ape was purchased on OpenSea, which per their own terms, is governed by the laws of NY, where a thief "cannot pass good title" to stolen goods. But, the BAYC terms say they cant "seize, freeze, or otherwise modify the ownership" of their NFTs. Will be interesting to see if this goes to court - in theory if the current holder can be found and a court is willing to uphold this, they can be forced to transfer it back? https://twitter.com/AkivaMCohen/status/1529276073896296453

The absolute most charitable explanation for this is Seth setting the whole thing up for publicity and forgetting that being the Twitter main character is a fate worse than death.

Wasn't there already a funnier use case with blockchains that stored user-submitted photos? i.e. someone could upload child porn into the blockchain and then instantly all blockchain users will have to store child porn on their computers in order to use/buy/sell the coin. Maybe it was some smart contract projects that were supposed to be used to sell art, pre-NFT craze. Anyway not sure if anyone ended up testing the theory or if all those projects have long ago exit scammed already. Rad Russian fucked around with this message at 04:05 on May 25, 2022 |

Powershift posted:Would this not open up every blockchain to be required to be edited in the case of theft? This specific example seems to only be in the context of sales on OpenSea - they aren't suggesting that this specific New York law applies to blockchains in general. That being said, NY regulators have taken a fairly broad view of who NY law applies to, and similar laws probably exist in other states and countries. Its a little less clear what would've happened if the sale had occurred by directly interacting with the smart contract without using a platform.

I think that putting images on the blockchain is too expensive but there are absolutely URLs on the blockchain pointing to child porn.

No, the blockchain is legally merely a piece of evidence that suggests ownership but doesn't prove or demonstrate it. A court would merely order the current holder to return it to the person with actual good title and if that means the blockchain gets another transaction to show it going back to a wallet under Green's control, cool, otherwise the judge properly doesn't really give a poo poo what the blockchain says. The court order says who owns it.

Is stealing an NFT even a crime? Or would the charge be how they obtained it and not actually have anything to do with the NFT itself

Powershift posted:Would this not open up every blockchain to be required to be edited in the case of theft? The blockchain wouldn't need to be edited. If they can identify who is currently in possession of the stolen property that individual can be ordered to return it to the owner. If someone steals your property and sells it to a third party, that third party does not become the legal owner, they are just the fool in possession of stolen property. RL artworks stolen by the nazis and lost for decades are still owned by the victim's heirs and can be ordered returned whenever they are found. They might not be able to figure out the RL identity of the current holder of the token, but the token itself would be poison. NFTs have perfect provenance. For eternity anyone looking to buy this token will be able to tell it is the one stolen from Seth Green and legally considered stolen property. Anyone who can be identified can be brought before the the courts if they "buy" it.

The instances of fraud and theft that have been tried in the crypto world have been tried using charges relating to money laundering, tax evasion, etc, and not theft or fraud itself, iirc.

Bitcoin is the ultimate land of make believe. You believe you have money, you believe you have ape ownership, you believe that cryptoland will have questionable libertarian laws, and yet here you are, getting your drat apes stolen by the fiat courts after you hacked them fair and square. Bitcoin is what happens when sovereign citizens write code.

A lot of the bullshit surrounding stolen apes is basically an object lesson in why possession is only nine tenths of the law.

What's more fun is that while actual ownership may be divorced from "Blockchain listed ownership" the controversy surrounding this particular ape likely makes it's Blockchain listed ownership more valuable. It will also be years and tens of thousands of dollars worth of legal headaches to sort it all out.

There's something about them running just a classic Nigerian prince scam that really tickles me. No bullshit ponzi schemes, no overvalued JPEGs, just a good old fashioned "Hello sir you have one million funny moneys sitting offshore please send us ten thousand funny moneys processing charge so we can release the funds to you".

And I do, if I need to, or I just want to. This is technically a crime. But if nobody sees me do it, or if I can run faster than the cops, it amounts to nothing. I will steal your jay pegs. They are mine now. Report it on twitter, coward.
