reddit karma. it's suspicious
mircea_popescu: i tell you, i die a little inside each day because i don't post on
reddit, retardstalk, thedailydork, theverge etc
thestringpuller: lol are we on a long tangent about kids because
reddit has kids?
mircea_popescu: He went to the experts. Specifically, he went to
Reddit's r/Bitcoin to ask them what the fuss was about.
ozbot: The Daily Dot - Before Bitcoin panel, senator crashes
Reddit for advice
mircea_popescu: my guess would be this is accurate : every 100k
reddit comments = 1 btc
mircea_popescu: 207
reddit comments = 0.002 btc zeroconf, or 2% of what bitbet puts in on the house.
Kleeck: Good God,
Reddit. Lay off the "Dear BTC Millionaires" posts... FFS.

nubbins`: "Hey,
Reddit, Ycombinator, and Metafilter readers! You know what, I'm proud that this article has become a benchmark, but I've written a lot of others I like too, some of them more recently than 2004. It would sure be nice if my other articles got some love instead of just this one being linked from a discussion every week."
mircea_popescu: incidentally, if anyone has a
reddit account be a sweetheart and put that torrent article up
nubbins`: ^ some kid on
reddit who bought his grandma some btc a few years ago
jcpham: except it came from
reddit dexX7: next question: people on
reddit say theymos is a scammer, why?
dexX7: well anyway. i don't find it, but it was on
reddit. probably deleted by the mods, because it was true. :p
mircea_popescu: dexX7 i'm aware. i just thought it's marginally ridiculous to be that desperate to impress bitcoin forum/
reddit.

mircea_popescu: anyway, the "wrong guy" suspicions aren't entirely without merit, even if
reddit makes a typically redditarded soup out of it.
pankkake: I'm still waiting for any technical insight on colored coins, so far I only see circlejerks (like the
reddit shirt fundraiser)
pankkake:
reddit summed up: let's solve a complex issue by selling shirts
jurov: good. let's go ask
reddit to sign a petition for fbi to invest it into mpoe bonds
mircea_popescu: pankkake you don't understand
reddit. ask it anything, it'll say the same thing : "i want sum gimme"
thestringpuller: you must have had a bad experience with
reddit mircea_popescu
pankkake: well,
reddit is famous for stealing content. many top posts "my daughter made this" etc. revealed to be fake
mircea_popescu: so now the contingent of highschoolers are telling each other stories about how cool they are on
reddit.
pankkake: oh I agree with almost much of the hate about
reddit mircea_popescu: in its 10 year history, nothing subversive came out of
reddit.
