Re: Breaking: Bitcoin Mt. Gox disappears in blow to virtual currency! EVERYTHING is GONE!!!
I personally made 4 million dollars from mining bitcoins with a 10,000$ mining rig. Cash in hand. I never keep my coins on an exchange any longer than needed to exchange them.

It's an exchange not a storage facility.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 17950446


You are more rich then me, who did invent it.

I always told the developers not to take advantage of the early process.

As many times I did destroy my own stack.

But not everybody is like me.

Once I did ask to help a friend of me, and they did make jokes about him, a great guy.

Well that's the world. Full of sharks.

The "father of cryptocurrency" is weeping. Lol.

I have no sympathy for people who speculate on inherently worthless things, be it bankers or bitcoiners. They are the cause of the current broken economic system. Bankers are worse but bitcoiners aren't innocent.

I only have sympathy for those who create real values. Not for the leeches of the system who monetize the trust between humans. They have no ethics.

Now on Yahoo News
"Mt. Gox, once the world's biggest bitcoin exchange, looked to have essentially disappeared on Tuesday, with its website down, its founder unaccounted for and a Tokyo office empty bar a handful of protesters saying they had lost money investing in the virtual currency."

Too bad Satoshi Nakamoto did not cover the topic of human greed in his famous 'white paper'. It does not matter how clever the bitcoin protocol is - greedy humans will always find a way to exploit the system.

Hopefully, those invested in bitcoin's future will finally understand that you need transparency when dealing with large sums of money if you want to keep people honest.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6383062


Hm ?

The human greed was expected. As it was expected there would be financial bubbles and speculation on the coin.

This is the process of a new birth. With pain and suffer.

The cryptocurrency protocol (bitcoin is only ONE implementation) is not only about money.

You can use the system to vote and much more.

The algorithm will be used for many things.

You do talk about transparency. But You can track the road of bitcoins... It IS transparant.

But of course, the weak link is the wallet and companies who do provide online wallets.

If people do use local wallets (on a linux computer or specific hardware) there will be not such problems at all.

You guys don't have much of a clue, do you?


I had a single ATI 7970 videocard on my gaming PC. When I noticed the crypto craze, I bought 2 more.

That rig got me steady 20€ up to good 50€ days, in BTC. With the BTC crash, it's only 15€.

Electricity cost is 2 ~3 €/day.

The cards paid themselves in a month. Now I could dump them used for around 80% of the price I paid for.


Now, how am I losing money on Bitcoin??

I tried to warn people but they were too smart, lol.

In my eyes it was a clear but advanced pyramide scam, those who created the scam made a few million USD when it was easy to mine.

There was not a slightest doubt in my mind that this was a smart and complicated s-c-a-m.

I'm not mining Bitcoin directly. I mine other coins suitable for GPU (like Doge or Maxcoin) and trade for Bitcoins. This is fully automatic.

Then I cash out the Bitcoins for my bank account, Paypal, or other.

If You do speculate on bitcoin to use it to do transactions with regular fiat money, You do miss the point of cryptocurrency and You will soon or later find out You need to convert again to cryptocurrency.

Re: Breaking: Bitcoin Mt. Gox disappears in blow to virtual currency! EVERYTHING is GONE!!!
This was posted in the thread about silver the other day:

"For obvious reasons my last post and indeed this thread was my first also. Suffice to say I am not in Austria either.

A single day 5.12% increase is not due to a sudden increase in demand but due to an unexpected breaking of those managing big money who were shorting silver and had to cover their shorts at short notice.

Those on trading desks that had become relaxed about shorting PMs as method to screw over small investors who had bought PMs as security against their games are about to learn a valuable lesson.

People have been watching. JPMorgan think they can manipulate freely and that's easy to do in a small market like silver. It's time they were taken on a ride and learned that small unexpected capital inflows can cause serious damage to their over leveraged positions.

Where this capital has suddenly come from is for them to guess and those who know to laugh on.

We do not forgive.


Best wishes to all ordinary working people. It's time the banking staff involved in market manipulation and sociopathic futures traders high on cocaine took their long overdue payback.

We do not forget.

When you messed with our people do you think we would leave you to keep leading millions into poverty and destroying nations so you could buy a sports car and abuse prostitutes?

You should have expected us.

We now own you and your drug dealing child abusing criminal friends. Perhaps you should think about all the ordinary well meaning people just trying to get buy you destroyed via bac.

Our advise is that you evil scumbags you take this opportunity to kill yourselves before the knock on the door. This pain won't stop for you. Some will be hunted like rats forever.

You want to murder our people at will. We decided three years ago to destroy you. You are our enemies and we hate you with a burning passion.

Satoshi Nakamoto"
