Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

I am conflicted on organ donation. On one hand, it makes our species as a whole weaker as people who should have died stay alive and procreate, breeding even more weak and sickly people. On the other, it maximizes the use of resources. Difficult.

So by that logic we should stop all foreign aid and let them all die from starvation and disease.

Stop all welfare payments so the unemployed (often less intelligent), sick and disabled die.

I'm good with that.

Whoa, holder with a good taste!

Edit: I've uploaded the new avatar, but still no change. Guess I'll have to wait...

I had to mess around with mine before it would change. I think I had to convert it to a png before it would change on bitcointalk, unless all I needed to do was wait, or clear my cache or something.

Tried changing to a png and that seemed to work, thanks.

[...] they are working so hard to become just another Cryptsy 2.0 scammer platform.

They see the next true Dotcom era wave coming and want to suck in as much business as possible. Makes sense.

If thousands of shitcoins are treated as equally special, then none of them are. Nothing but a bunch of penny stock trash.

Bitcoin is the only crypto that matters. Everything else is irrelevant.

Well it sounds like Coinbase is getting ready to IPO. I guarantee they can get more money throwing around the word "blockchain" than with "bitcoin". They're just trying to pump their own value any way they can right now.

I tried to keep your hat as muted as possible in keeping with your grey-scale avatar and your no nonsense personality.  Even though your avatar is named after itself, I had a lot of trouble finding it in a larger size.  Today I had an epiphany and realized it was Ji-Tu Cumbuka from A Man Called Sloane.  I knew I had seen him but it took a while to figure out where.... damn I'm getting old.

Five years now waiting for someone, anyone, to correctly nail the obscure reference to my avatar image. His character name on the show was "Torque".

Mega merit for you! And thanks for the hat!

fuck-un-a

welcome Torque

It's a pity he had to bodge it. Where did you get your original avatar picture from?

Ah mersi!  Here is a very lightly bodgered hat instead

Where did you find the big version of his underpants avatar, or is that the very lightly bodgered bit?

Great post, no merits to give. +++L00|<  Would laff again!

 I know it doesn't sound very nice but I was coerced into bodgering Yefi's underwear.

Humans that have automobile accidents need organs, too.

Having been in one, yes they do. But we don't discriminate between people who are useful and people who are pieces of shit in the current medical system, and most people are pieces of shit.

only the weak have automobile accidents

Just out of the HODLcaves and still sideways, Then we wait for moon and lambo a bit more

[goldkingcoiner]

You made me laugh so my last merit is for you

You need more merit then, sent.

Thank you! Another day of merit giving has come.

Remember guys: Lambo will not go up in price but Bitcoin will. Don't be stupid.

lol you should have said Homer, know I'd grant you full access to my undies: https://imgur.com/vJXicHV

Just don't tell the other boys.

I always wondered what the large version looked like. A google image search just came up with your bitco.in avatar, and a google for "yefi" came up with Youth Evangelical Fellowship International.

Gosh, I genuinely had no idea I was wearing the badge of some evangelical brain parasites.

I am pleased that you liked this joke!)

How nice that we are still young and have time to wait!

I'm good with that.

This is another case where it is better you can document and explain sudden wealth ie. the origins of it.

Of course, Charlie Shrem should be attempting to live more discretely, especially since he had already gone to prison, and there will be presumptions against him, which could send him back to the slammer - especially if civil pursuits against him end up revealing criminally relevant information.

Now he will probably need to either prove (with full blockchain trace) he had those Bitcoins before the hack or he invested a bunch of money after his release from prison AND how did he obtained the funds to do so. If he can't do that... well...

It seems that the Winklevi had a P.I. on him for quite some time before suing.

Oh, and I seem to remember Roger Ver and others lend/donated some funds to Shrem for his defence because he couldn't afford it.

Well, no. The onus is on the Winklevii to prove that the money Shrem has been spending is rightfully theirs. In theory, at least.

Well, it seems the judge has agreed to freeze some of Shrem assets in response to the case so, at this point, I would think some action on HIS part would be needed to unlock 'em. Not having read the content of the lawsuit there's not much more to speculate about probable outcomes.


P.S.: Here is what I remembered about Charlie being in need of money for his defense: https://twitter.com/rogerkver/status/891050550862561280?lang=en

He probably also said to the court that he was broke, then he went to prison and some time after he is freed he buys assets for millions of $. I would say the Winklevi have a point there. Of course it could all be easily explained just by showing the legit origin of that sudden (post jail time) wealth. In fact he doesn't even need to do anything... the judge can (and probably did/will) request his tax reports for the past few years where everything should be well explained.

That is a strange interaction between Ver and Shrem in early 2017 - and that would have been after Shrem was released from prison.

Regarding burdens, the burdens can shift at various points of the case, and if the court freezes assets, that would likely be a temporary measure that would not effect the overall burden of the case, which still would be for the winkelvii to show.
