2. Who gives a XXXX

we use a thing called language here...it is for communicating

bye bye

Oh come on. That's a bit harsh. Take it easy.

"crypto is electronic currency" and my personal welcome "Your welcome" already made my day.
Apparently the previous IQ discussion is still relevant. Legendary...

To be fair, menace has been teetering on the edge for a while.

It is pretty amazing how effectively some people are able to demonstrate the abrasive nature of their personality in a few lines of text.

Thanks for the heads up

did not realize it come across that way

time for a reality check, do not want to be abrasive

2. Instead of Who gives a XXXX, I Should of typed

who cares?

lol

I understand again apologies

I think "who gives a fuck?" is fine, depending on the tone and the emphasis that you intend to provide.

If you later concede that you did not intend such tone or emphasis, then so be it... Any of us can make those kinds of mistakes.. seems to me.

I am sure the board can handle a few here and there, but the rules do need to be implemented.

I like jojo69 response to a question about mtgox in 2012 manipulating the market

"Who cares" is a much better response to the question of my spelling their instead of there.

anyhow amazing coincidence at the time, a discussion on mtgox bankruptcy manipulating sell offs was happening and here I am quoting jojo69 and the thread was the same manipulation mtgox was doing in 2012

Seems that you are making two main points in your above response post:

1) regarding word choice, and whether there might be better or worse ways to make your point: If you make your post in a kind of rash, then in those situations, you might make mistakes regarding your word choice, and sometimes, you may go back to your post and consider that your word choice is not fitting for what you were attempting to communicate. Even though, from time to time, I am criticized for my word choice, including the length of my posts, there are pretty rare times that I would either change the post or go back to rewrite the post, because the vast majority of the times, my word choices are what I chose at the time and are reflective of my then thoughts on the topic.

In the end, I think that the point is that each of us makes a choice about how much to edit or reread our posts before we hit "post." So, there is a considerable amount of personal discretion there, including the discretion to modify our posting practices.

2) ongoing mtgox manipulation: This subject matter of mtgox manipulation comes off as another one of those distracting and misleading talking points that seems to infiltrate into a lot of discussions, including discussions by seemingly smart people who are finding a pattern or attempting to find a pattern. I remain of the "who gives a shit" perspective on this particular talking point. Sure, you can include mtgox into your analysis, but it remains one of many factors that seems retrospectively over-hyped. For example, when the trustee first began to sell coins between December and February, those sales were not getting too much publicity, but after the fact, they are being described as if they were in the public consciousness at the time of the initial dumps and able to affect the price. I remain of the perspective that there was so much trade volume between December and January that the mtgox coin dumps were quite unlikely to have any kind of meaningful effect, but such supposed effect has been exaggerated after the fact in order to attempt to get affect on the current price dynamics, and in order to attempt to shake some additional weak hands of their bitcoins.

Yep I know what you mean

finding it very hard to comprehend narratives about the just and legal way courts, ministers and legal authorities are affecting the market.

One reason Bitcoin was created because the banks around the world stole everyone's money 2008 GFC

yet here we are quoting these authorities as gospel

With so much corruption it is easy to ascertain what those in position of market manipulation are doing, they nearly all tied at the hip and benefiting of each others knowledge

Panama Papers

No tender Downer AUS Ambassador and Clinton trade practices

and it goes on and on.

Yet hardly anyone is able to imagine a narrative of Jamie dimon JP Morgan and the japanese finance minister colluding to get cheap coins for their friends.

It is the obvious solution to how the market played out.

Not that I am concerned the narrative is accepted, just sharing for anyone, it is good for me cause selling when need and buy the dip
