Please, someone post the txids and associated addresses here! If no, then this will completely be a troll!

BTW I doubt an unknown person would had 37k BTC (people/companies have lots of coins are well-known, like it is well known that satoshi have 1M BTC). If he really have that much, his name should be widely known by the bitcoin community.

It's possible Martin has 37k BTC, as he is a wealthy businessman, but I doubt he'd be that ignorant to lose 15 million bitcoin that easily.

No one can post the txids because they don't exist. This was most likely a hoax to grab attention. If there were the txids, they'd be viewable in the blockchain.

Someone on 4chan apparently endorsed the role of karma : http://thenextweb.com/insider/2016/02/15/pharma-bro-martin-shkreli-lied-about-bitcoin-so-someone-spent-his-real-money-on-lube/

Ok, $1,000+ is nothing for Shkreli but this whole humiliation is priceless Cheesy

Look at his tweets in twitter, "i have contacted Satishi and he will send back the money" also some researches from some portals says that there is not such a transaction(s) with 30k BTC

None of these are dated 2016? Is there a way to check the largest transactions for a specific date of 13 February 2016?

This guy is a professional troll and everyone hates him so he just tries ways to get people to hate him even more but this is pretty lame even by his standards and easily refutable. All he really wants is press hits and infamy and it looks like everyone is giving it to him. I'd just ignore him and he'll go away eventually.

He's a classic psychopath / sociopath.

Most animals do not have empathy, and when they do, it usually is only towards offspring.

Our species developed empathy but sometimes there are genetic throwbacks - sociopaths and psychopaths.

The throwback can make them very successful in business etc. but it is a detriment to what our species has evolved to become.

in the case this is not not a troll attempt, how did he lost those coins? hacker or simply being an idiot with his own money?

According to his own claims it's the latter: he said he had transferred the coins to a guy who pretended to be working for Kanye West and wanting to sell him a unique album. He fell for a scammer, so. Well at least that's what he's saying Grin

. A self-made millionaire falling for a bitcoin scammer. If it's true this might be a historical moment Cheesy

. Sadly it looks like a shameless troll more than anything else.

Do you seriously believe this troll? Nobody should believe such claims without proof (e.g. TX IDs). You can find his interactions with "Satoshi Nakamoto" on twitter.

Agreed, but would TX IDs be enough proof or just proof that money went from one address to another. He could just shift this money to a friend or to

a address he owns, and it would mean nothing. I think he is just making this statement to get attention. When you have done the things he has done,

you show you have zero integrity. Do not listen to a fool, they might fool you. Wink
