Bitcoin: An Idea Worth Spending

You think this is bad, I've already uncovered over a dozen security and bitcoin miner hosting sites all run by the same guys pumping Black Arrow, but getting it shoved up my ass for exposing them fucks to the point where I'm beginning to like things shoved up my ass. BRB... Nevermind! Not long enough, but looked promising from across the room.

Now, that's takin' vaporware to a whole new level, eh!

My primary concern really aren't speculators who get burned being on the wrong side of extreme-risk trades.
My primary concern is the reputation these pump&dumps leave on the CryptoCurrency area in general, IMHO this can and will eventually assist in discrediting BitCoin/LiteCoin (or worse, serve as a welcome excuse for regulators to hammer in to "protect their investing citizens" and alike).

Most of these AltCoins are doing more damage than anything else and are headed in a very very bad direction. Really bad.
To me, they are the biggest threat to the BitCoin principles in existence and there's nothing in sight that could stop them.

Yeah, all these alts really do give crypto a bad name. The fact that people even bother mining or dealing with them is troubling,

Just think of altcoins as an inferior product. It's just like buying a cheaper non-branded product as opposed to the quality original.

Indeed...
Although I don't support the "Hot Potato Game" and the schemes behind it, I don't feel any sympathy for anyone who joins in voluntarily.

I mean honestly, with like hundreds of useless clone/scam-coins in existence and new ones popping up every day - who is to blame if they go up in flames in the hands of greedy fools ?

The best thing about crypto is that fools are parted with their money much faster.

Yeah they are scammers but those who invest are equally to blame. Why would someone put big money in some battlecoin (never heard of it), oh wait, because some guy said he'll pump the price. People are so naive...

These guys are all just con artists trying to get you to send them coins, and fair play if people are dumb enough to do that.

There are some shady mother f*ckers on twitter doing organized pump and dumps on cryptsy. These are some of the scummiest scams I've ever fucking seen. They suck in noobs by making them think they have a shot at making gains on a fair pump. But this is what really happens:





I love how this subhuman fuck says "i lost 2.6 btc buy hey! fuck it!" this dickhead made over 200 btc on the pump scam right before.














Just be careful of these scam artists on twitter: @thecryptotrader , @cryptsypumps , @PennyPumps , @BTCWhale , @equalpumps ...there are many more but i cant remember right now.


if you thought the crypto currency community was full of good people who wants to make a change in this world think again... it's full of assholes too. At least bank robbers rob you in your face... these guys are pussys behind a computer who lie and deceive people who don't know better. I will strangle them if i ever find them by some miracle


I'm drunk as fuck right now so please excuse my language and poor grammar
