Bitcoins - digital currency - Page 1093 - Business, Finances and Investing Forum

i like this theory, i've posted the same thing. i have a few other theories too.

maybe satoshi lost his private keys and is too embarrassed to come out of the shadows and admit the bungle.

it's so much damn money that if satoshi is alive, and has access to that wallet, he must be wealthy outside of bitcoin. maybe elon musk invented it and then handed it off to someone else VERY early, and that person promised to never reveal musk's identity, and remained anonymous themselves to help keep the secret.

perhaps god himself gave us bitcoin to save the western world from the corruption of its governments.

who knows!

How wealthy do you have to be to ignore that amount of money?

So why make hateful, demeaning, insulting posts towards random strangers on the internet? Shouldnt you be out enjoying life with your extremely large bank balance that you love to brag about? This is almost as hilarious as you making fake accounts in order to post about yourself in 3rd person. Hilarious.

On a dif note, the moon boy posts are almost as tilting as the bear gloating. But let's not be confused with being optimistic and being doubtful.

i educated a generation of poker players posting stuff that was slammed in 2008 that everyone thinks is "common knowledge" now and i will educate a generation of cryto cultists as well. just like with poker the intelligent among you will follow, learn and profit.

I mean, people read those things and some will believe it, that is especially so when it's promoted by a guy who made his name in poker. I feel we are in some kind of alternative reality with all this crypto stuff. All the red flags which were functioning before are now completely ignored. I mean things like shill company in Cayman Islands prints monopoly money, some guys with fingers crossed say it's backed by dollars and suddenly it's reasonable position to believe they aren't full of it. Buying tokens is suddenly "investment in the technology" and then there is supposedly serious discussion about keeping significant % of your net wroth in this casino.

Post volume goes up and quality goes down as the price movement is large, in either direction. There are a lot of uninformed post, but yours are part of them.

I don't care too much about short term price, but what's wrong with people discussing at what level a price drop will stop? There are a lot of people in this forum that are trading after all.

When he writes a post, all you have to remember is that this is the guy who made some of the dumbest brags in the thread about keeping money in safety deposit boxes, slowly getting eaten away by inflation for no reason. I personally wouldn't believe a word he says. His narcissism personality disorder is really shining through. Whatever you do, don't big time him or he'll have another meltdown/crying fit.

I have also been given permission to perma ban Limon. Don't worry, he's getting close, i think 1 or 2 more posts may do it.

You think he would take all those coins to the grave? I don't know if he had family he could have left instructions for.

If "Satoshi" died, you'd think there might be something in his will or personal effects that would out him.
