This could be an opportunity for a seasteading Bitcoinist. Set up shop in an o-zone (numa numa) to build components for the steads. Dodge some tax money, employ a few people who need it and help to build your new community in the equatorial zone. Win win win.

I just texted a buddy in a zone and he said his property taxes have doubled in the last year so it looks to me like it's just going to relocate the poor elsewhere. Nice job as usual from the Obligatory. At least it looks like there were good intentions on this tax dodge.

Looks like these guys should have waited 4 days!!!

None of the major alts have ever endured a full crypto winter. Even ETH launched at the bottom of the crypto winter and was straight uphill from there. Undoubtedly this has been a learning experience for the Masters of the Altiverse.

I'm not defending alts but this is just patently false.

In what way is Hairy's statement patently false?

Sure if you mean the old world alts of pre-2014 back *before* the current nouveau crop like ETH, XRP, DASH, XMR, etc., all the ICO garbage... then yeah, they had a pretty hard bear market. I remember LTC dropping from $48 all the way down to $1.20.

But the nouveau shitcoin crowd has yet to see a significant crash. And trust me it's thin all the way down. Just look how that one whale trader on Coinbase was able to crash ETH all the way down to $0.10. And that was just like ONE guy (or one small colluding group).

Of course I mean the Old world ALTs what else would I mean. And he used the terms "NONE have endured" which is patently false, what part of that is hard for you to discern? AFA the "nouveau shitcoin crowd" let them burn. You listed a pile of exceptions yourself.

I'm a little grouchy this morning do to over exertion yesterday so I'm not really mincing words. BTW that LTC spiral was not just a scene bad patch it was a shitcoin that got pumped by the chinese and ridden all the way down, it didn't correlate to the market as a whole at all.
