You should remove his posts from your thread. They are just cluttering up your diary.

He is useful, since he acts as a living proof that

A) I have bitcoins, since I can just throw them away at will

B) He has yet to realize, what I say here is true, and anyone who reads it can just buy bitcoins with his spare cash and be rich, no need to beg to have them.

The most juicy early adoptership window is right now, and it closes, when 2% of the world's population has bought in. At that point we will be at $300/mBTC, my tip to this guy could have bought him 10 houses [NOTE: I kindly asked him to give it back, since it was just the proof anyway - he can invest his own money and be happier LOL], and we are entering in a dangerous bubble territory. Buy now, or refrain from buying above $300k, like I refrained from buying bitcoins during its runup and crash in 2011.

I am a noob investor, but I do have a well tuned bullshit detector. It just red-lined.

Let's see:
1. Completely unnecessary altruistic transaction with no clear motive for altruism. Notice that the same thing could have been proven through REAL altruism by donation to a charity using a verifiable wallet.
2. No way to rule out sock-puppet account
3. If you didn't care enough about 13btc that you were willing to send them to someone you didn't know, why would you care in the slightest about getting them back?
4. "[NOTE: I kindly asked him to give it back, since it was just the proof anyway - he can invest his own money and be happier LOL]," this is the kicker. If you truly had enough that you didn't care about 13btc, no way in hell you would keep mentioning that the guy didn't send it back. If someone scammed $1 from me, I probably wouldn't bother asking for it once. And I certainly wouldn't ever mention it again.

Shame too, I was really enjoying his thread. Wonder how I'll feel about it now that I have to regard it as fiction.
