The thing about mini pigs is that they are mini, people just don't realize how loving big a pig can get. There's a reason why boar hunting used to be something you did to prove you're a badass, after all.

From what I understand in order to keep a pig "mini" you have to have it on a starvation diet. Since Americans feed their pets like they feed themselves it seldom works out.

Have you considered that every egg is unique, much like a bitcoin? And that due to the eventual expiry of eggs, there is an upper limit to how many there can be at once? And that if you have a fridge full of eggs, the government can't prevent you from eating them?????

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT TO ALL NUGEN TOKEN HOLDERS

Announcement as of January 8, 2023

Further to our January 4th announcement and with careful consideration, Nugen Universe LLC, in collaboration with Defi Oracle Network, will need to create an Etherium ETH wallet in Metamask for each and every Nugen Token holder.

This is the first part necessary to facilitate a smooth and expeditious migration of your account.

With careful considerations Nugen Universe LLC has committed to this undertaking due to the large client base and stringent timeline will proceed as follows:

1. Nugen will cause the creation of an Etherium (ETH) Wallet on Metamask for each Nugen coin holders.

2. The closing value for each members Metamask ETH wallet will be determined as previously communicated ( # of coins x $1.33)

3. Conversion to ETH for each member will be calculated by dividing the closing value by current value of the Ether

When the conversion is completed, members will be notified via another announcement e-mail. At this point, members are required to login into their Nugen Dashboard and click on the icon to
authorize Nugen Universe LLC and Defi Oracle Network to execute the swapping of their Nugen Tokens and release Defi Oracle Network, Nugen Universe LLC and its affiliates of any obligations or harm.

Once the process is finalized and all ties, direct or indirect, between all members, and Nugen Universe LLC, Defi Oracle Network and its affiliates ceases, Metamask account holders will have the freedom of selling/swapping their Ether for any other token on the exchanges suggested on the site.

Though Nugen Univers LLC and its affiliates will be making every effort to meet the January 13th deadline, we reserves the right for an appropriate extension should it be deemed necessary until their Tokens are successfully transferred. We will notify everyone at the said time

The FTX lolchain continues to deliver.


quote:

FTX officials overseeing its bankruptcy have recovered more than $5 billion in cash and other liquid assets that may be used to help repay creditors, a lawyer for the failed crypto firm said during a bankruptcy court hearing Wednesday.
...
The lawyers also said they had identified more than 9 million creditors — far more than earlier estimates of around 1 million.

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.

I had been planning to give my first substantive account of what happened in testimony to the US House Financial Services Committee on December 13th. Unfortunately, the DOJ moved to arrest me the night before, preempting my testimony with an entirely different news cycle. For what it’s worth, a draft of the testimony I planned to give leaked out here.

What the gently caress does this even mean? Does he think he could have newsed his way out of a 10 billion dollar hole?

quote:

That $8b of net borrowing, less the few billion of hedges it had on, resulted in around $6b of excess leverage/net position, backed by ~$100b of assets.

And as markets crashed, so did those assets. Alameda’s assets–a combination of altcoins, crypto companies, public equities, and venture investments–fell around 80% over the course of the year, raising its leverage bit by bit.

So Alameda pumped shitcoins so hard there as nobody to dump them on, and nobody willing to catch their falling knife.

im permabanned poster fiatstomper58. i first started investing in crypto when i was about 12. by 14 i got really obsessed with the concept of "hodl" and tried to channel it constantly, until my thought process got really bizarre and i would repeat things like "to the moon" and "bitcoin is technology of the future" in my head for hours, and i would get really analytical, start seeing logrithmic rainbow charts in the corners of my eyes etc, basically prodromal schizophrenia. im now on antipsychotics. i always wondered what the kind of "hodl" style of crypto investing was all about; i think it's unlimited upside leaking in to limited downside, what dogecoin investors considered to be the cause of lambos and bahama mansions. i would advise all people who "get" crypto to be careful because that likely means you have a predisposition to a mental illness. peace.

It might also be a vague shoutout to the conspiracy theory that he was arrested to prevent him from testifying to congress, for reasons of ????

he only has one playbook, it worked for him well in the past and he can't think of any other strategy. this is just to appear well-meaning and open and helpful, the 'good guy' of crypto. ofc we know from leaked messages he knows it's all BS. but yea what he's doing now is just trying to will this alternate reality back into existence where he could just spout off nice-sounding things while playing LoL and rich and powerful people give him money. it's not working but he can't admit it

with $100 billion of monopoly money he didn’t think anyone would notice him stealing $8 billion actual money (which was really $6 billion if you squint at it just right)

and 6 is a smaller number than 100 so

he was totally going to put that $6 billion back honest if it weren’t for that pesky “market”
