Silk Road forums

I had an issue then a full refund and some so not disadvantaged but no product either, I think Tunbear has been in hospital or something??

One more thing...

Historically speaking - the NYSE/ NASDAQ most volatile trading days are Fridays and Mondays... The traders try to make a statement before the weekend - so that they stay in the front of the minds of their money men over the weekend.

Maybe on Monday, they will be back on the phones hammering their clients to BUY BUY BUY. = BTC Value +++ 

So maybe hang on in there if you are going LONG. Stay nimble and fast if you are going SHORT.

There is a TON of money to be made during volatility, (either UP or Down)...

We are living in historical times my anon friends...

I have been watching the pattern for a while now, Monday is definitely the biggest jump, then climbing for a few days. Any drops have happened towards the end of the week then weekend hiatus of not much change.

Lets see what Monday brings...

I will be happy with some stability to bring some confidence back.

fuck me, anyone remember $240 a coin? I am having the words "cash out sooner" tattooed somewhere prominent.

Oh God, like on my right freaking hand.

Same.

It seems to have stopped dropping, for now.

Surely the experience can be recreated right?

The experience transcended the drugs though Tango, without wanting to sound like a old fucker who lived the dream is was way more that just drugs back then. In the UK we were fighting against the systems of coercion and control that keeps the workforce compliant and sober. They even brought in legislation that made congregating in groups and listening to repetitive beats against the law!! we said fuck that and fuck you and went for it as did millions of others who rejected the established norms and redefined clubbing and drug taking not just in the UK but globally.

Good times and yes jnemonic a time machine would be fucking epic! any listed on SR?

A lot depends on which country you are in, some countries like the US link names to addresses so if you use a fake name or the name of a previous occupant the mail service may not deliver the mail or they may redirect it.

How does the US link names to addresses, is this link checked when the address is scanned by computer? On what register is that name/address based, in the Netherlands each city keeps a registration of it's residents and everybody has a registered address, but i thought this was not the case in the US.

I am not sure to be honest, it is just what I have read many times on the forums so maybe someone from the US can speak to this with a greater degree of certainty??

I live in the U.S. currently and names are linked to addresses.  In fact you are linked to every address you have ever resided at.  This information is primarily used for identification and for credit purposes.  The theory is that the longer you are at an address the more stable and reliable a person you are, at least when it comes to credit.  This is what they claim this information is primarily used for.  This is how "finder" sites can locate individuals by simply entering a name!

Thanks pkizenko98

+1 for you

What has happened in the last few weeks with the 'explosion' of the BTC looks exactly like a pure and simple manipulation of the BTC market for insider gain. (Or those who are either 'In the know' or those who 'Kinda think they do'.)

I have see CEO's, Investment Banks and VC's do this over and over again (and make more money than God in the process).

Im pretty sure that this high volume/ volatility pattern will continue to repeat itself to varying degrees in the near term... until more realistic values/ earnings are quantified and linked to reality. (12 - 24 months)

Even though Im nervous - Im going LONG ON BTC. BUY, BUY, BUY...

I would wait a little bit longer to be honest, I reckon its got a bit further to go down yet judging by how fast it's dropping right now.

AussieMitch talk me man? get off the ledge!!!! 

I retract all previous comments, btc is plummeting as I types this, seeing my little pile evaporate before my eyes

I should keep this a secret    ...  Though so many times I become victim to sellers saying they sent there product and it never arrives nor do they have a DCN#...  Then they usually offer a reship or 50% BTC back... This is such a scam as they do not need to have any inventory and as I always asked I want the product so I say please reship 90% of the time I never receive the item and I loose my money and they gain everything.... Even if you ask for 50% back, they just made 50% of your BTC for doing nothing.....  SR Mods needs to  figure a way to deal with this....

Easy way to fix it is CLICK REPORT THE VENDOR.

Yes but when you click resolve and try to get your BTC back the mods usually/almost always do a 50/50% share and that means I lost 50% for nothing....

Where vendors are intermittently experiencing issues and generally have a good track record and the buyer has solid stats yes the general SR position would be to split the loss 50/50. If there are a increase in issues then there is nothing stopping you asking for a higher or 100% refund as I recently did with one vendor and got.

It is an imperfect system, the scammers will always be here so we need to use all the tools at our disposal to stay as safe as possible, not FE on orders is a big step in the right direction. The forums should be your bible, check up on the latest news for any vendor before placing an order, things change fast on SR.
