I thought they quit tether printing when the government decided to look into the tether company thinking that something might be up with this.

I thought that when you actually “sell” bitcoins they take weeks to become actual money unless you want to gamble on being beat up in a parking lot? Is there some trick to being able to micro day trade this poo poo and then realizing this value?

It took me 5 weeks to cash out in December last year when they hit $16k. It was a combination of finding a trustworthy exchange and the transaction taking almost 1 week to confirm because the whole system was backlogged due to the bubble.

:airquote: backlogged :airquote:

which looks remarkably similar to

"defrauding investors by preventing them from cashing out until the market stabilizes on a more favorable rate"

The keys are right next to each other on the keyboard.

Yeah, both really. Took ages to verify the transaction on the blockchain, about a week. Then it took the "exchange" another 1.5 weeks to actually send me the money to my paypal.

Now that is smart investment. By spreading the risk, if one of your bitcoins drops in value, you'll always have the other.

I'm sure there's some complicated story but I'm just gonna go ahead and assume it's the Sieg rune because these guys love, love, LOVE to cheer for a team that was A. tremendously, genocidally racist and B. lost

To be fair, they also offered bank transfer but I was just happy i got out before the bubble burst and did not care how i get my FIAT. I wanted it fast so paypal was really the best option.
