As a long term investment I wouldn't mess with it but as a quick way to move a large amount of money in a virtually untraceable way I might. As someone earlier in the thread suggested he may have been doing exactly that so the people coming after him can't get their hands on it.



Exactly. It going to be extremely difficult for those shareholders to enforce a judgment against Martin with his assets tied up in things like Bitcoin.

And this is the guy who called John Lewis an imbecile?



Not directly, but after his appearance before Congress last week, he tweeted, "Hard to accept that these imbeciles represent the people in our government." The closest he came to disrespect during the hearing was telling Trey Gowdy, "I'm going to follow his advice - not yours" when Gowdy was trying to trick him into ignoring his lawyer.

Isn't he the guy that jacked up some AIDS medicine price 700%?


Not sure if it was the HIV medicine or not, but he jacked the price up on a drug called Daraprim. I'm not saying it was right, bc it was a dick move raising the price from $1 to $700+...but go read the article I linked on page 1, it sheds some light on th subject. IMHO, he's doesnt seem to be doing anything that hasn't been done already - he's abusing the system like everyone else to line his pockets.

he described it as buying an aston martin for the price of a bicycle and selling it for the price of a Toyota.

Yeah actually there are several companies that do this and don't get railed for it. The costs get passed on mainly to your insurance company. When your insurance refuses to pay for your medication you can blame greedy bastards like this guy.
