The immutable record of criminal conspiracies that cannot be deleted or changed after the fact, providing a cryptographically secure basis for prosecution credits. Backed by math!

Only Bitcoin can solve the trilemma of money laundering, noncompliance and ponzi.

Gives good reason for globe trotting escapades, 2. Allows arbitrarily many set pieces and break in montages to fill screen time 3. Sets up obvious twist that the team nerd is a backstabbing psycho Sure, Bitcoin sucks, but that's an okay movie premise

There's a weird bathtub curve for how likely it is someone is going to get in trouble for trusting a computer too much. On the one hand you have elderly people who don't quite grasp that once something's on facebook it's there forever. Then in the middle you've got a generation of 50-30 year olds who grew up with computers being new and saw first hand how much of a gently caress the early internet could be. Then you've got a younger cohort that grew up with devices that just work and who always banked via an app etc. who don't really seem to consider how easy it is for someone else to get your info. Like, of course I store my_crimes.txt and drug_sales.xlsx on my phone, that's where I also have my shopping list and my reminder to take my medication and my bank account info and all my photos (both salacious and innocent) etc.

It's hard to find clips still around, but there was a crime drama in 2007, Life, that had a drug dealer who hid their drug sales in Prince of Persia Two Thrones on the Xbox. There was a climatic scene where all the cops were trying to beat the level that the excel spreadsheet was hidden behind, it was one of the dumbest TV moments I've seen.

zedprime posted:That's fun to think about. But also consider what your brain's risk management center must look like if you're big into crypto and then what would happen if you apply that risk management to something actually deadly like swimming in the ocean. the people who I suspect of faking their deaths are the more “criminally inclined” coiners who were criminals before bitcoin came around (i.e. popescu) and who moved into crypto to make accessing their criminal wealth easier. these people aren’t hiding from the SEC, they’re hiding from the bratva, triads etc.

The 2013 TV show "Almost Human" is set in 2048 and shows people using "Bitcoin Sticks" to instantly transfer funds, so clearly they have ironed out the problems. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sXcxP6LuYk

This is the movie Cloak and Dagger, where state secrets were encoded onto a game cartridge that fell into the hands of a plucky teenage protagonist I remember liking the movie but that was also the age where I liked every movie I watched, in the Before Times

No I remember that clip, you have the one guy who's all super confident about his game play abilities but he keeps dying, then this other guy notices this woman in the back is pretending to hold the game controller and pushing ghost buttons along with the gameplay because she's a REAL GAMER, and they get her to do it and she wins. In trying to look it up I somehow got a news article about SBF

I watched Fast X a couple weeks ago and in one scene the bad guy steals the good guy's money and moves it around with crypto. It's the exact same scene in every other film but it's 2023 so instead of just saying they got hacked, it's now they did it with crypto.

You hear about similar dumb bullshit now and again with college weed dealers getting caught with my_drug_sales.xlsx on their desktop. a lot of people don't really appreciate how much better cops have gotten about using technology to get arrests. by way of example, they think that deleting messages from facebook/deleting their profile means those messages are gone forever, but Facebook is more than happy to send off their copies of it to any PD with a warrant (which isn't heard to get). or they don't know that PDs have task forces that just browse local social media all day to catch kids self-snitching. it's pretty scary, i've seen them use fitness tracker apps to prove someone didn't run away from the scene of a crime and instead tried to hide evidence. this music video got so many goddamn kids arrested. (and the buildings condemned and destroyed.)

When you post on the internet you should strive to maintain a roughly 75% bullshit to 25% truthful ratio. Make it difficult to tell signal from noise, and it's easier to spin a web of lies from a kernel of truth than to build it from the ground up. The best option is to simply not post anywhere ever.

At the very least, do not post about your crimes under your real name right beside a big picture of your real face.

There's a long standing gag that any game that supports circuit logic will eventually be able to play a copy of itself within its own environment. Dwarf Fortress is particular gets a lot of this. People have made impressive things like calculators and emulated digital displays.
