I get why the libertarians and anarchists supported gold. They hate the Fed/big banking, Helicopter Ben, purported interest rate manipulation, and think our military/nukes/petrodollar recycling props up the dollar. Precious metals/hard assets make sense if you think the dollar will crash at some point.

But, then they flocked to this digital system that looks like it could be easily manipulated/hacked and is more abstract than anything the Fed/banking cartel could cook up. I don't get it. And their response is something a big banker would say about the Fed -- you're too stupid to understand it and are buying into conspiracy theories.

I don't think he suddenly quit. I think he got bored of TD and slowly faded away.

Probably more likely, towards the end he was having the same arguments with the same posters every time. But he was an intelligent guy who usually had something interesting to say, very little parrot bullshite that makes up a lot of this place.

I think Wiki went to Reddit so he could see boobs instead of talking to them.

PeeJ has picked up his slack in regards to being creepy.

Love BTC.

Makes it easier to purchase gear and other things online.

EDT: Also you can play the market easily. Last year around this time BTC saw a jump of 200% nearly overnight. Luckily I just loaded up to purchase some items, paid for itself. It has been pretty damn healthy as of late.

He was brought into a "red room" on a dark web murder forum.

Ironically, it was bitcoin that judged his fate.
