Am I crazy or is this advertising that they are sponsoring the largest crypto conference in Toronto in the month of August tyool 2022? That seems like a really low bar…

It's a con, alright. Also the crucible of all COVID strains, new and old going by testimonials from Apefest.

Largest conference in 2022! Largest cryptocurrency conference in 2022? Largest blockchain and cryptocurrency conference in 2022? Um, largest blockchain and cryptocurrency conference in 2022 in Canada? Largest blockchain and cryptocurrency conference in 2022 in Toronto? Largest blockchain and cryptocurrency conference in August 2022 in Toronto, surely. Come on, dude. I really wish that they'd had to get down to specifying the venue.

This is great. Dirk Pitt posted:
They got the name of the conference wrong (Futuristic instead of Futurist) but their logo does appear on the conference page. I’m amazed they actually spent money on something.

Ups_rail posted:Also why would institutions wanna buy bitcoin? I mean isnt just good for buying drugs and illegal poo poo. Accumulated wealth is so concentrated that they're looking for any gamble since it was getting harder to break ahead of the pack of other billion dollar firms, especially when interest rates were low, it's why you see tech startups recieve so much investor cash too. Though really for institutions it was just dipping toes into volatile assets and flipping. Especially when bitcoin didn't dissappear quickly. None of them thought crypto was the future, but there's obviously a zealous market they could sell to.

I did see a post when I was checkin out the Nugen launch yesterday about customer service being offline for a while because of the 4th holiday weekend or something like that. So unless they’re the dumbest possible company of all time launching a new website and customer platform the day before a long holiday weekend (not ruling this out) I can’t imagine it not being a a straight up rugpull. Looking through the Facebook groups made me really sad. The people there aren’t the normal crypto bros you’d expect, they all seemed to skew much older and all had the really creepy cult-MLM vibe you see from super Christian Amway folks. I don’t know if that’s something they engineered by design, but makes sense vis a vis what we know about Goon Neighbors

This is an educated man who knows better but gets fast talked into bullshit. It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if he gets taken in by crypto. If he does I have zero sympathies.

Imagine I run a Twitter account where I just mention you if you win an auction run by the latest person I mentioned and I get a cut of the auction. And a group of people went around claiming you can’t “really” look at my avatar if you weren’t the latest winner. And there were, sometimes, really terrible games and events and poo poo that would consider the person I mentioned last special in some way, like letting them in to a concert comprised of people who bid on identical tweet mention scams. That Twitter account comprises the entire feature set of an NFT, but is infinitely better: you can win an auction on eBay with regular money and send and get a refund freely and instantly through PayPal, making a tweet isn’t the environmental impact of burning down a forest, setting up a Twitter account and tweeting is free, not a variable amount between $20-400; and Twitter has a massive mainstream user base. And it’s still the dumbest thing you’ve ever heard. That’s NFTs.

It's the perfect time to do a rug pull and disappear because with the long holiday weekend you can use that as a smokescreen. Everyone will assume that there's technical difficulties that aren't going to be dealt with until people come back from the long weekend, and by the time folks realize on Tuesday or Wednesday that the website is not coming back you're long gone.

I see plenty that target random people even discussing crypto and pointing out like 700% in 4 weeks on trading bots. which is explicit scams and fraud. Like poo poo, in my heyday I made 3% a day on bots for a month and that was insane (and not sustainable, and also pure luck of circumtance). Today, I like much more sanity settling for well under 1% a day that I can sleep on.

Or maybe not given that I didn't bother to do the math on 1% daily compounding instead of additive.

I really find the old (and apparently almost completely forgotten) hype about the Second Life amusing, since now it's being regurgitated pretty much word per word for Metaverse hype. Except somehow all of the Metaverse products I've seen are somehow even lamer than Second Life.
