6/11 - And real people were counting on that fund. One Bitcointalk user, DarkEmi, had deposited 5,000 BTC, most of his savings. Another had wired $38,626 saved over two years, verified his claim three times, and received nothing. They checked the forum every…

7/11 - On July 12, someone finally used the key. Within hours, roughly 40,000 BTC and $40,000 in cash drained out of the MtGox account, flowing through AurumXchange into Liberty Reserve, a digital currency the US government would shut down for money laundering…

8/11 - The next morning, developer genjix broke the news on Bitcointalk: Bitcoinica had been robbed a third time, and this time it was the victims' money. The thread is still there:

9/11 - Two weeks later, AurumXchange published its findings, and the story turned. The laundering account traced back to stevejobs807@gmail.com. @erikvoorhees recognized the address at once. He had corresponded with it for months. It belonged to Zhou Tong.

11/11 - Forum veterans were skeptical, but nothing was ever proven in court. In August 2012, Wendon Group was appointed receiver under New Zealand law. By 2014, fewer than 2% of Bitcoinica's customers had received any compensation at all.

🏆 The supply considered lost has just set a new record.

For this chart I considered all Bitcoin (UTXO) older than 10 years.
This represents around 3.54 million BTC lost or dormant.

Joinville vira laboratório biológico com a liberação de mosquitos infectados em 100% da área urbana. Entenda os bastidores que não te contam.

A Constituição de 1988 criou um cargo eletivo que nunca teve eleição. O juiz de paz, aquele que celebra casamentos, deveria ser escolhido pelo voto popular para mandato de quatro anos, está escrito no artigo 98. Trinta e oito anos depois, a lei que regulamentaria…

Vendeu o imóvel e quer abater da conta do imposto o valor da reforma que fez em 2003. Pode, desde que apresente as notas fiscais de 2003. Sem o papel de vinte anos atrás, a cozinha nova, o telhado trocado e a área construída não existem para a Receita, e…

Tesla is making a massive pivot at its historic Fremont factory, officially closing the chapter on its longest-running flagship vehicles to make way for Optimus

ETF de Bitcoin não é bitcoin.

É o pedágio que você paga para terceirizar a chave da sua soberania.

Two scenarios:

1.) BIP-110 buys us a year to find a permanent solution to Core’s repurposing for non-monetary ‘use cases’

2.) Core™ wins and an unprecedented deluge of network abuse and a fatal war on nodes ensues, destroying Bitcoin’s immune system.

Which…

Rooting for 5 corporate mining pools that answer to government subpoenas to kill #BIP110 is the most pathetic fiat-slavery mindset out there. Run a counter fork. Show us your node beats ours. Don't go crying to regulated pools who pick up when Elizabeth Warren…

⚠️ The $NAKA chart at a new low is symbolic of David Bailey’s malicious influence on Bitcoin. His last gasp is desperate opposition to BIP-110.
