Speaking of HRC, you see the Donna Brazil story spilling the beans on DNC?Brace yourselves for more. HRC didn't get elected so this is plan B
Looks like plan C is also underway, watch the stockmarkets and banking transfers

I've never understood this virtual currency. I'm old.And the bitcoin market....
I've never understood this virtual currency. I'm old.
What I don't get is how it's backed. It's not gold or dollars, so to me it just seems like pretend money.Basically, think of it as transferring money without a middle man entity (like a bank), just software. In doing so, you instead earn more bitcoin vs. paying that intermediary (as a reward for using the network). Just like debt or other holdings, you could buy this bitcoin, speculating the value will rise (and it has, immensely)....but, the lack of centralization, or backing by a real currency, is also what makes it a bit dicey on the investment front. I don't fully get it either, but this is the best way I understand it. I'll let any full-blown nerds expound any further on it, lol.....
Some major global governments have invested heavily into it, in the hopes of reaping big profits. (especially governments facing monetary sanctions).

I used to invest in foreign currencys and did quite well. But I personally wouldn't trust this electronic stuff like Bitcoin.What I don't get is how it's backed. It's not gold or dollars, so to me it just seems like pretend money.
I don't know how bitcoin got onto the Colorado shooter thread, but hey, who am I to judge. As far as bitcoin goes, damn I wish I had invested in it! It hit over 7000.00 the other day. It's made a crap load of millionaires. When I first heard of it I thought what kind of moron would invest in it! It's too late now though. You never buy an investment at its all time high. I believe it's got a ways to fall now, but sure wish I had been in on the ride up...
And Microsoft. Who the hell would give a guy working in his garage 10k?People said the same thing about Apple stock.
#AAPL
$170 per share.
Though I'm not buying into any of the conspiracy stuff I believe we have another nut that snapped however I do wonder if he was on meds too?
