mircea_popescu: nanotube is the dood that was going to fix gribble to work with deedbot, then didn't. used to have some clout, then a little clout, by today indistinguishable from w/e last months; crop of wanna-bes, fluffypony, josh
garza, whatever.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-13 22:07 asciilifeform: gotta wonder, what precisely caps the lifespam of a
garza-style op. my guess is that it was never +ev at any point, and d00d simply ran out of his usg-allotted 'capital' to pay the shills etc
a111: Logged on 2016-01-04 13:52 mircea_popescu: * Tomiii (~Tommiii@

BingoBoingo: aquentson famed autist of CCN which once lived high on Josh

adlai: and why is your hostmask '
garza'
assbot: Cryptsy Co-founder and Josh
Garza Co-conspirator is the ideas guy behind Bitcoin Classic : Buttcoin ... (
http://bit.ly/1ScjT40 )
BingoBoingo: "Peoples reactions to the discussion have been mixed, with people pointing out that the discussion was inappropriate in a group of essentially strangers. Furthermore, Bitcoin has been associated with drug use throughout its entire history, and perhaps it is in the interest of the community to separate itself from that." << lolz ClassicCoin can't even win outlets that flirted with
Garza's Paycoin

☟︎ lobito: what's "
garza nitwit", btw :P
mircea_popescu: maybe start your journey by looking into the lulzy story of that
garza nitwit. should be instructive.
liquidassets: On the perfect ponzi, "you kinda complete the loop and bring it all the way down to the purchase" - Josh
Garza mircea_popescu: "According to the SECs civil complaint, Homero Joshua
Garza and his companies, GAW Miners and ZenMiner, sold more than 10,000 "investment contracts representing shares in the profits they claimed would be generated from using their purported computing power to mine for virtual currency.""
HeySteve: and yeah, I left CCN before the
Garza scandal broke
ascii_field: same site also hosts marvels like 'A New Block Size Increase BIP is Planned for the ‘Rough Consensus’ from Montreal' and 'The Josh
Garza Interview: Organized Crime, Threats and Is He In America?'
mircea_popescu: altogether a marginally better showing than
garza's "buyout at $20" plan.
mircea_popescu: <funkenstein_> the notion that britney spears did damage to music might be compared to the idea that
Garza did damage to bitcoin << still, i'd pay a little for it not being possible for britney to exist. and
garza idem.
funkenstein_: the notion that britney spears did damage to music might be compared to the idea that

shinohai: I decided not to bet on that one, I mean there are people that *still* believe in paycon despite
Garza being what he was.
mircea_popescu: and no, promises to pay from josh
garza are not bitcoin
mircea_popescu: "I should make it clear: we would have settled too, in the interest of fighting another day, if Hogans demands were reasonable and the story flawed in any way. But now that the trial is on, we intend to fight it as far as we need to and we can." = we have as much money as josh
garza cazalla: but the bitcoinist guy should've known better seeing he already went through this with
garza last year when
garza was going to buy bitcoinist and mate tokay wanted green card, 200k, lambo, unit and all that other shit
cazalla: fluffypony,
garza "bought" it last year for 1 million.. to pay off in installments over 36 months.. but
garza has no money left apparently.. so he leases it to bitcoinist, pockets the money and the real owner of the domain takes it back as
garza late/failed to make payments leaving bitcoinist up shit creek
mircea_popescu: cazalla: you'd think some people would learn their lesson having dealth with
garza in the past but no << understand the rotinculo syndrome. they DO understand, but what exact alternatives they got ? it's either this or go home. they dun wanna go home, apparently there's a famine in hungary.
mircea_popescu: lol so
garza bought btc.com and is now leasing it to random derps ? mkay.
danielpbarron: today i gave up trying to find the line in which you said something along the lines of
garza's wife not being bad
mircea_popescu: Pierre_Rochard so lulzy. then
garza tries and fails to raise 50k via his muchly-crimped cantor fitzgerald contact.
ascii_lander: BingoBoingo: imho
garza et al are about as interesting as, e.g., buruli ulcer.
assbot: Logged on 21-04-2015 09:44:07; cazalla: recon_eric, pretty sure
garza was banging amber as well tbh, what with the constant text messages and shit
assbot: Logged on 21-04-2015 09:41:05; cazalla: williamdunne, maybe they touched swords long ago and recon_eric hoped by eating
garza's shit on top of it, he'd keep quiet about that time they, you know, did their thing
pete_dushenski reading all these
garza letters on qntra. quite the dig cazalla!
assbot: Logged on 21-04-2015 13:07:15; mircea_popescu: "On the 19th of December 2014, Tokay provides
Garza with the required parameters of his employment including a two year contract, $20,000 a month salary, 4 weeks vacation, bonus and stock options, relocation expenses, an apartment paid for for 6 months, green card visa assistance and legal fees as well as a company car.
Garza informs Tokay that because GAW Miners is a startup, salary is capped at 90k

☟︎ mircea_popescu: in any case one's left wondering if preet's now gonna look into stuff like "Discussing money that
Garza alleged Stuart Fraser needed to keep out of sight"
cazalla: this is after PAing for
garza mind you
cazalla: works, or at least did, for marshall long at finalhash, guess
garza liked to share his women around or something

☟︎ williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Josh
Garza is well above googling usernames for himself.
mircea_popescu: so basically this is what, the conference of people who're sorry about being involved with the
garza fellow originally ?
mircea_popescu: this is very instructive of the stupidity of journalists. they use windows, for one thing, but that perhaps is not their option. what IS their option however is to derp on linkedin rather than here. what his results in is, trying to do interviews with
garza, and what THAT results in is
http://dpaste.com/3SN7HCS.txt BingoBoingo: lol, unlike
Garza to taint hundreds to thousands of BTC with my stink I required no scam
Cogburn: i dunno. i shook josh
garza's hand. unimpressed.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You want to do a
Garza violates Westphalia piece for qntra?
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo wait, their virtual best korea has an unconvertible shit currency that nevertheless is great because you can buy whores at the local wholesale whorehouse ? << Pretty much. Apparently some of the most loyal of shills have been selected. There's allegations I can't evidence that the stuff is being shipped from amazon as a gift from Homero J
Garza.
