The only article about this is at WSJ and that's behind a paywall (fuck you, Bezos!)
I remember Loaded from back in the day, now I'm curious to find out wtf happened with him.
Try pasting the title of article into Google search.
Worked for me (it was a slashdot link)
I posted a link to it in my previous post. I'm sure it's not clear as I posted an image as well which likely serves to confuse so,
HI-TEC99 posted a shorter URL shortly afterward -

but then deleted his post.
There are many helpful people in this thread... that's what makes it awesome.

Thanks for the links!
turns out Loaded made his fortune by double-clicking Silk Road's withdraw button a bunch. That's hilarious! He comes out looking like quite the loser in that article. Spent his wealth trying to buy people's affection until getting busted by making a stupid-ass basic mistake.
Also how come the Feds get to call dibs on his coins? He stole them from Silk Road, what do they care? It's not like it was a business they legally recognized. Bunch of bandits!
Overall fun story, 9/10 would recommend to a friend.

To contribute something a bit more on topic (sort of), "whale eater" loaded is going back to court tomorrow. A thread titled "@RogerVer lets make a deal. At least 60k, my BTU for your BTC." was necro-bumped with some interesting revelations that potentially explain why loaded backed out of the deal. It's a doozy in bitcoin history.
Bumping this thread now that loaded is set to be sentenced tomorrow (see: https://www.wsj.com/articles/bitcoin-blockchain-hacking-arrests-93a4cb29)
Roger was lucky Zhong didn't follow up (he probably got scared because of this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/6bcccp/loadeds_coins_trace_back_to/) - otherwise he would have ended up double rekt.

edit:
looks as though he started drinking Bud Light. Probably shed a few pounds and maybe a couple of other unmentionables.

I heard Elon is trying to sell Twitter. Wanna buy it?
Okay. I have a question. Is Taproot Upgrade is Smart Contract? How Taproot upgrade helped Bitcoin? I am puzzled after reading some articles. Maybe it is because I am not understanding how it works. One article said the Taproot upgrade enables verifying multiple signatures at once. Another article said it's a smart contract upgrade. How it's related to SegWit? Wasn't SegWit upgraded before the Taproot upgrade? SegWit departs the signatures data. The block already contains more data after the SegWit Upgrade. So, what Taproot did do?
Internet data is not reliable these days. Google said Satoshi's Birthday is on April 5th. I was fooled.
Arrrrrggggggg 😡

I expect there to be some liquidations, when the Gox coins get released, probably Q3.
BTC will be sold by the trustee in order to to return fiat to the creditors (to those who chose to receive fiat instead of BTC)
Together with the feds silk road auctions this will create some selling pressure the market has to absorb on it's way up

Oh yeah. $30,000 Bitcoin support price now. The current economic situation looks set to have a good effect on the Bitcoin price in April.
$40,000 in my binoculars based on some statistics seems like a good match.
What do you think?
April 13, 2023, 02:05:11 PM
It’s looking like there’s a good chance we’ll be above $40K by the end of the year.
I’d settle for that to be honest.
I’m looking for $40,000 at the time of the halving & a cycle top of something like $180,000 towards the end of 2025. It could go higher but I don’t want to set myself up for disappointment.

Feels to me like there is still a great deal of buying pressure. The retest below $30K didn’t get much action and we’re already seeing new highs as buyers scoop up all the BTC they can. I think it’s safe to say the worst is behind us and we’re going to be seeing higher prices for a while now. It’s looking like there’s a good chance we’ll be above $40K by the end of the year.
The chance of 40k and up in Q2 is the same imho…
yeah 40k would be nice for may
