    The Micon System V4.0 with foreword from Justin Wade Smith.
    When faced with a difficult decision, ask yourself "What would Micon do?", then do the opposite.

    Coinbase says it prevented over 1,000 customers from sending $280,000 worth of bitcoin to Twitter hackers

    tl;dr a lot of bitcoin exchanges blocked transactions when they found out about this scam, saving a bunch of idiots a bunch of money.

    A dirty secret of the bitcoin community is that there are a lot of really, really gullible people involved, which makes the poker community look downright street smart by comparison.

    Here's one example: http://pokerfraudalert.com/forum/sho...could-go-wrong

    The "Poker By Proxy" scam skipped right past the poker community and instead they went straight for morons holding bitcoin, sensing they were far easier targets. And they were correct.
