He is cooperating. He must be very very scared. This should end quick.
To get all sellers it should be more difficult, but I guess this is another case.

The $5 wrench is once again successful. Although they probably used another torture technique which doesn't show any physical injury.
Those barbarous fiends!

Well now we know all transactions in the size of 324 belong to the FBI...
They should have gone with 456! "We are coming!"
Not sure whether this reference is well known enough. Especially to Americans ...
oh, i get it. well played.

More thoughts on being shit at trading and why Macbeth was wrong.
Looking at my trading history I wondered what my position would be if I'd simply bought 1BTC a week for every week since I first traded at Bitstamp on 3rd May. If I'd bought one coin before midday on every Friday since, I'd now have 26BTC at an average price of $111.51 and in fiat terms (as of today @ $183.49) - I'd have made 64% profit on my outlay. As it is, I've got less than half the coins - down about $100 and Bitstamp are the only ones who've made any profit

What were you doing during this few weeks rise? No usd profit?
Nah - I'd just made up my losses and bought in at $190 and decided to "hold" - would have missed the drop anyway. Part of the issue is that I don't have the time/focus to be able to re-act quickly enough - think I'd have to give up work and get divorced to make a go of trading.

You'd have to calculate different scenarios of difficulty growth.
That does not alter the outcome very much though, as the near future is near certain and after 2 months, not many coins will be generated in any scenario.

I am officially mining bitcoin!!! 
Hm, is it still profitable? Just canceled my BFL order, bastards....
i don't have a clue!
in 2 years when the contacts are done, ill let you know
my guess, i'll get the $ value i put into it for sure, no problem, but i paid in BTC... I should of held my BTC but i could not resist the numbers, at the time ( when mining difficulty had just started to rise ) it seemed like i was going to double or even triple my BTC ( even considering that dif would keep going up) , so i figured difficulty can not go up that much more then I estimate and i would at least get 110% of my invested BTC back, and so i bought like a mad fool.
difficulty rose way WAY higher / faster than i anticipated, and now i'm holding contracts that are likely not going to make half the BTC i put in...
You can figure it out. Take the hashing rate of the contract you purchased in hashes/sec divide it by the current difficulty and multiply by 0.013064576229
The result is the number of Bitcoins you will ever make based on the current rate of difficulty rise. The cost of electricity is not a consideration in this calculation.
Take care
I wouldn't say this is a good way... The bolded assumption almost certainly not going to hold over the course of 6 months, let alone 2 years.

I know how vertical chartss work. But the bitcoin charts seem to be horizontal, which confuses me. Anyone care to explain how you read those things?

Why is it I see Preet Bharara's name every time a bust happens in relation to the bitcoin world? First liberty reserve, now silk road... This guy is the US attorney for the southern district of New York apparently. So why is he involved in bringing down organisations that deal in money laundering and drug traficing?
