gearing up for next upcoming gpu mining bull market.

Edit: it should noted somewhere that I gave away $2500+ worth of cards a month ago.

What community power provider allows such a draw ?
This video made me sick to my stomach.

Maybe someone can tell us ? Where in Canada ?
( just leave a window open there ... right ? )
His IG shows a 200amp service ... really ? opps - that almost 3 years ago.

Crypto dudebro was hacked for some of his bitcoin, and they find out that he recieved some of 50,000 bitcoin seized from SilkRoad.

Kinda like calling the cops to tell them your weed was stolen, that kind of thing.

I think there was still a party, but not at his house.

I'm sure it will not feed the homeless, or build migrant shelters, or
,,, spent usefully, before it goes to making bombs ?

It should be noted that I am NOT Red Panda (Mining). He's in Canada, I'm in the States.

He's expanding GPUs, I'm giving (gave) away $2500 of my GPUs.

Who is falling for this?

Owned by Morgan Stanley? 1% daily ROI?
People with money need to stop being so stupid.
Easy to verify. Red flags galore.

I don't think its people "with money" like you think, but rather this new investor class that got started during the pandemic (and fluffed GameStop and AMC, then crypto). These people are desperate for the next get rich scheme.

His best defense is coming off as ignorant to everything.

The problem is, he's trying to play stupid about things he's previously tried gloating about, apparently there's multiple witnesses contradicting him on things he's claiming to be ignorant about, he's trying to throw his lawyers under the bus (claiming they misled him, when I have a hunch they probably have some records proving the opposite), and his ego won't let him not try and act like he's the smartest person in the room.

So he was just the coffee boy?

He didn't even know him, never met him, never even seen him before!

That actually would be amazing to see him try to play that up, seeing him coil in horror when they pull out a mirror. "OMG, what is that...thing?!?" He just starts shrieking and crying. "Please, please, no more, I can't stand another sight of that horrible monster!"

Moooore crypto?

Yeah, save yourself some time and don't watch it, it's a robo-generated text-to-voice story.

Why are you posting this " extremely long story " about this ? Who cares about " inlaws " or " cooking hobbies" I found myself fast forwarding the the whole video. Save us rest of us a few minutes of our limited time on earth for something more concise.

Better yet --- It's a story about relatives stealing power with an illegal hidden cable. ---- now no one will bother

Or just delete it

I'm sorry, I still miffed you made me read/listen to that ...

It's not a big deal. Read it with the sound off. Not everything needs to be a video though.

Doing power upgrades for my server rack, moving to a -48v dual conversion setup and I'll have several kw worth of power capacity vs the 750w I have now. I keep thinking it would be fun to get back into mining again. Need to resist the urge. :p

Is this it guys? Is crypto officially dead?

Anyone left spouting off about crypto at this point is basically in a cult.

Many cults still exist even after its been thoroughly shown to be a fraud and the leaders are dead. And considering this is probably more similar to Scientology than other ones, crypto will stick around, if for no other reason than the weird intense focus some people have for certain things. Hell, I bet it sticks around and even gets popular again off and on like vintage video games and other.
