It's all theater. Shrem admitted on this forum that he was a Rothschild - not exactly a poor family. Its the kind of lazy psychological warfare that works on a lot of retards.

Be scared...they're coming to get you next!!

Ah shit... I forgot the really good bit of vague legalese about being "wherever located doing business, whether or not on a regular basis" (CFR§1010.100(ff)).

So don't think you can just trade stamps once and not break the law!

Could you please explain what the heck this is supposed to mean?

That guy probably works for the fed he was quick to defend it.

It might be best for you to discontinue reading the .gov propaganda arm known as CNN. CNN will always defend the FED and the status quo and will spread FUD on anything that might disrupt it.

According to the complaint filing (and the pursuant sections of the Code of Federal Regulations), Shrem and Faiella are charged (more or less; there's a bit more legalese involved, but this is the basic gist) with being persons who accepted and transmited "currency, funds, or other value that substitutes for currency from one person ... to another location or person by any means" (31CFR§1010.100(ff)(5)) and failing to "register with FinCEN" (31CFR§1022.380(a)).

I think I broke these laws, too, when I traded homebrews with a friend.

Not really when you think about it because they are arresting him on suspicion that he was exchanging money for bitcoins, based on because he was doing it for people that was using silk road. And either you didn't read the story or your super man that can read a whole page in like 3 seconds then come back here and respond because you responded awfully quick to the time I started this thread.

Or maybe he read the story from one of the other 3000000000 threads that contain the same info between here and reddit. This story has nothing to do with the FED trying to stop Bitcoin, it is about them trying to stop money laundering. They didnt even mention Bitinstant in the arrest warrant which means that they are looking at Shrem and not Bitcoin. Stop spamming this crap and trying to push your agenda to create panic about something that does not really impact our community in the slightest way. Bitcoin does not equal silk road.

Yay! Good to see another Terp in BTC.

BTW, nice job crushing his FUD, lol.

I've noticed that this sort of thing happens anytime Bitcoin touches $1000 on any of the exchanges. And then this sort of thing happens and the whole thing goes to shit and drops to below $1K prices. One or twice I would say it's a coinicedence but it's happened more than that now, about 5 times I think. I think it's more obvious now that the bankers want a war with us.

Part of me still wants to say it's a coincedence but part of me knows it's not.

The story has been out for like half a day man! There are multiple threads in multiple subforums. Didn't you bother to search before you created a new thread on the same topic?

Here is the 27 page complaint, which I've had ample time to read.

That's some conclusion to draw from one dude being arrested for (allegedly) breaking the law.
