    That the rollout of BCH was problematic is not something I disagree with. It was a huge embarrassment professionally for coinbase. I am well aware of BCH increasing in price prior …

    You are full of it. > They only allowed people to sell it on their market again, about 24 hours later, after the coin went down to $1,000. This is completely false, and a lie since…

    Well... uhh... this guy is not in charge of everyone's healthcare - he's in charge of a rather small group of companies instead. The consequences of failure here are not exactly an…

    If you don't have a written contract, and everything was verbal - you don't have a chance whatsoever to sue and come out victorious. It sounds like unless you can pressure the indi…

    Hate to break it to you, but no one is dead outside of the shooter currently. You might want to take some of your individual responsibility and correct your statement.

    I make no claim that they were not paid back and in excess of their initial investment (which was not in pharmaceuticals) If I lose your money, lie to you, but then I give you 10X …

    Most people are simply applying social pressure against norm breaking anyways - often times they do not literally mean that he should go to jail - it is simply how people talk abou…

    Just because you settle and repay people with OTHER money, doesn't mean that you didn't commit fraud prior to paying them with _unrelated funds_. That's not how things work. The ma…

    you know... he's going to jail for none of the reasons you provided, and instead for plain old fraud. Fraud sounds like a perfectly normal thing to go to jail for.

    Talk to AWS support and see if you can negotiate it down, explain the situation and they might be able to cut you a break so that you don't have to shut everything down. You have n…

    And there lies the problem. That means your lack of existence is on par with anything else. So you can find something random meaningful to you or poof just end it early. Usually th…

    transfer wealth - what a joke. You will transfer a hell of a lot less wealth today than last week - what a great method of transferring wealth!

    You said that there is no communication which is false. That you are unsatisfied with it nonetheless is fine, but that is a separate issue.

    If you are new to the market, your best bet is not to make any investment - otherwise you are just playing the lottery. You are way way too late to the crypto party - wait a few mo…

    trading is halted for _minutes_ 2min then 5min... hardly an earth shattering pause.

    Huh - that is nonsense. They hold the exact amount of USD that their customers have deposited. They are custodians - not fractional reserve banks.

    Looks like TD Ameritrade also has them - I'm getting price data from my app for it at the minimum.

    Coinbase froze deposits/withdrawals, trading on the exchange often continues normally.

    You are correct it trades to Gemini's spot price, but you are wrong in terms of the difference between the two. As I write this there is a 5 cent different between GDAX and Gemini.…

    I made it for $6k, and the glory days of mining are over, but for some time I was making $100 a day mining. That is no longer the case. I actually bought 14 1070s, but I'm using on…

    That has a different risk profile entirely. I could always resell the video cards I bought at near cost. Buying speculative coins is another matter entirely. Further, I'm not minin…

    So - I actually physically run 2 mining rigs - each with 6 Nvidia GTX 1070s - pulling 1020 Watts each. They each heat a room fairly nicely and I make around maybe $300 in profit fr…
