I'm sure the scientist thought so, too, from the start. They were tasked with proving it was garbage, which is much more time consuming when it comes to preparing something for the councils of ancients that run countries these days.

I'd imagine all of the people looking to ride this dragon and short BTC are learning a valuable lesson in how a market completely decoupled from reality works to the detriment of anyone willing to put money in arm's reach of it.

Then he goes out and buys 10,000 packages of hot dogs to prove how good they are.

Just saw an article titled "This 'biblical' Bitcoin pattern suggests BTC price can rise 30% by October". You can't argue with that.

No ear piercing and not nearly a gormless enough expression on his face, 4/10. Also is it really a cosplay if you just airbrush it in Photoshop for 15 minutes?

Which is another Seth Green's stupid ape show is dumb as hell. Oh you own the rights to THAT ape, huh? What about the people with identical apes except for the background color? What about the fact your ape in the show doesn't always have the crying eyes, or the exact mouth expression, or wears different clothes? Wouldn't changing anything about it invalidate the copyright when there's a million other identical apes?

Rotten Red Rod posted:I don't know which term is the right one, I just mean his exclusive rights to market his ape. He has a non-exclusive license to create derivative content with his ape. Well, the original person who bought the token does, at least. It's unclear if or how that right would transfer on the secondary market.

It's unclear if or how that right would transfer on the secondary market. Yeah but my point is that his ape isn't unique, there are other identical apes with different backgrounds as well as very slightly different expressions. Saying you have a license to use it is completely meaningless when many others have license to a literally identical character.
