The best biggest Bitcoin derps on welfare, or the misadventures of young Josh Garza, Jonah Dorman, Eric Capuano and Brian Klein.

Because three years may have passed, but this has changed nothing as far as the various Mssrs Jourdain are concerned, we reproduce below an English translation to the famous French phrase

Par ma foi ! il y a plus de quarante ans que je dis de la prose sans que j'en susse rien, et je vous suis le plus obligé du monde de m'avoir appris cela.

It just so happens that I emailed them a copy mere moments ago, for safety.ⁱ Like so :

Subject: O look how cute, they totally know how to send emails and everything!

Listen up, idiot mobile passengers :

a) you are exactly in no way different from trilema.com/the-stockexchange-shareholders-on-welfare/ except for being three years late to the stupid party

b) there exists exactly one power in Bitcoin, and that power is powerful enough to beat USG agencies across the mouth, close MtGox on his say so and send Gavin packing whenever. That power is me. Forget the retarded posturing and get with the fucking program.

A very amused

We should discuss what we might be able to do. There may be ways we can go
after these bullshit artists no matter where they reside.

Post about GAW, "I don't about this poster or the credibility of his

He blogs about Qntra,

"So far this thing seems to be growing nicely. There
143 posts and 309 comments that aren't spam as of this writing. Quantcast
may be a laggy piece of shit, but Qntra has broken into the top 300,000 US
sites. This is with roughly a week of
stats missing due to persistent denial of service attacks and general
fuckitry with the Quantcast tag. There's also now people contributing
words to this things, rather regularly. Who would have actually thought a
media startup is still a thing that could be done? Also, could be done
without the mealy mouth appologias to why the "rockstars" you tried to
build your brand on
left.
It's just a shame baseball season is
over.
I'll find things to write about here. RIP OT #18."

For some reason I find the unnamed.png to be rather amusing. Here it is :

Looking forward to this same article (different unnamed.png, of course) in 2018.

1. And it will likely also happen that the top search result for their name will, for the rest of their lives, be Trilema. Like it has happened for the previous set of derps, and the one before that and the one before that and so on and so forth. As the Romanian expression goes... "Patasti.". [↩]
