I was, briefly, a member of Goat's "crypto crypt" forum.

I guess I was one of the cool kids back then and got an invite.

I behaved there pretty much like I do here.  I fancied it to be a kind of private wall observer thread.  Within about three weeks he booted me for "low quality posts".

At the time I was pissed, but in retrospect I suppose I am glad that I did not fit in with Goat's crowd.

You folks don't seem to find my posts so lacking.

You lead and I'll watch you walk away.
No. Tell us all about it.
And link?
oh he deleted a lot of posts, no?
anyway, link?

I am just going by memory that goat winked, around July/August 2014.... implying that BTC price was about to go up.  There may be a post, but I cannot even find goat's user name, so mystery upon mystery.   Tongue

Jay, just before he left to start his own forum he changed his name to “El Cabron” and deleted more than half of his posts. You’re right about the wink though. As I remember, his wink started in his pirate pass-through thread and again in the BTCST thread. At the time, pirate and his merry band of shitheads (which included goat) were essentially controlling the price. After that, he would do it occasionally when he had some kind of insider info.

Bollinger bands have only been this tight 5 times in the history of BTC and it has never resulted in continuation of a bear market.

Update on my bank situation. I can no longer deposit fiat. Like, at all. No idea how to even pay the fucking rent once the money in my account runs dry.

I can, however, sell coins on kraken and withdraw to my bank from there. No problem at all. It's almost like they want me to get rid of them.
Careful what you do, Ibian. If they really play dirty, they can freeze your withdrawals (and payments) too. In most cases they can find a legal justification for that - at least temporarily, but probably long enough to cause you trouble, say, with the landlord. If I were you, I'd work out a plan B involving an independent stash of fiat for safety.

Good advice. His account is probably already flagged for "suspicious activity". I would get the hell out of there as soon and orderly as possible.

And again, don't mix cash fiat with banking fiat, they are not the same and in big quantities/frequency the mix can be dangerous.

Also have a source of justified banking fiat (ie: rents, stock dividends, a salary) that amount for most of the (banking) inputs, try to have the cash activity (input and outputs) always in cash and if in need, only deposit the profits in the bank if small in comparison with all the rest.

Don't run anything that "could" be considered a money exchange without proper license and avoid banks at all costs.

Could we know which bank it is? Probably not important but I wouldn't mind adding them to my ignore list  Grin
Small credit unions can be a bit better.  I've had good experiences with mine regarding crypto and cash transactions.

Hopefully there is someone with localbitcoins nearby. I have banks in the US but overseas I live off of mainly localbitcoins/cash and online bitcoin purchases.

If you're in the US you can use gyft.com and egifter.com for hundreds of stores. Including Walmart for food and gas.

The wording of most of those descriptions grant way too much legitimacy to various forms of shit, so it is difficult to give very much credit to such nonsense.   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Wink


Remember when goat did that wink (was in about late 2014, if I recall), and thereafter the BTC price went quite south?

Not that you have the same goat influence.
