Buttcoin is the future of online butts. Buttcoin is a peer-to-peer butt. Peer-to-peer means that no central authority issues new butts or tracks butts.

A community for hurling ordure at cryptocurrency/blockchain dweebs of all sorts. We are only here for debate as long as it amuses us. Meme stocks are also on topic.

It looks like they are continuing the tradition of finding some of most obvious scams and charlatans and trying to boost them.

In 2000, Saylor was charged by the SEC with fraudulently reporting MicroStrategy's financial results for the preceding two years. He later reached a settlement with the SEC for $350,000 in penalties and $8.3 million in personal disgorgement.

Saylor is a bitcoin advocate and under Saylor MicroStrategy has spent billions of dollars to purchase over 400,000 bitcoins. In 2024, he paid a $40 million fine to settle a tax fraud suit.

Back in 2016 we sold our home and I put 500$ into Coinbase (mostly Bitcoin, a couple other smaller ones) and left it.

Years later I went to check and it was all withdrawn in 2022, no idea how it got stolen, but...yeah, that's what I figured Bitcoin was all about.

I mean it’s a magazine about people that made a lot of money, not who they think are “awesome” people.
