Was another bloody Sunday or rather sell your bag on Sat. night watch the blood flow Sun. rebuy and make bank Mon. Rinse repeat.
As far as Krypt, his assets are both approx. 5 feet tall and weigh 110-135 pounds. The tied up part is sure to follow...

I told Krypt this story years ago.
I play early morning tennis with two older guys. A political reporter for the Boston Herald and a Persian.
The biggest attraction is the trash talk. The best I have ever known.
Members have told me over the years that they hear two guys fighting. The first time I checked it out. Now I know it’s Mehdi and the reporter just doing their thing.
This guy, Mehdi, is amongst the kindest happiest guys I have every known. Always always asks how I and my family are doing. Has bothered to remember names.
So one day he shows up in a V12 Mercedes coupe. I stay out of people’s shit. Tell me what you want to tell me otherwise MYOB. I am kind of private myself and that’s the courtesy I extend others in return.
I am dying after the car though and finally ask the reporter what Mehdi does for a living.
The reporter looks at me and asks, “do you know who the Shah of Iran was?” “Well, Mehdi was one of his neighbors”. “The guy has wealth no mortal can comprehend”
Lotta big money fled Iran back in the day. CIA was all over it. Do not underestimate the possibility that is Krypt.
Whats so impressive to me is how well all those Shah money Iranians manage their assets. Granted a lot of their kids stray and end up in McMansions or whatever but a _lot_ of those first generation Iranian-Americans are tremendously smart investors and were big players behind the scenes of the post-bubble dot com market.

So we are to believe that before the birth of Krypt his family fled Iran with vast sums of money to a country, especially Washington that turned their back on them. Thus explaining his leaning toward hookers, laziness and thoughts of grandeur?
Either history escapes you or you watch too much TV, sorry but his family likely has zero ties to the Shah and if they did they would have been in Egypt atm. I also imagine the reporter from the Herald thinks you quite naive.
V12 Merc must be Shah of Iran's neighbor LMAO ...
Covert US support for the Shah is the stuff of legend and is yet another example that should shade your appreciation for the irony of today’s hue and cry over foreign intervention in politics.
Bet all day that guys ended up in Washington etc. Most were already US educated as well.
The 70’s were an economic boom time for Iran. My old man was a Honeywell guy. I remember him going over there and coming back with a hookah pipe that was given as a gift. Lol, different times.
I remember giving Krypt the last name of the Persian. I never made anything of it at first but there is a Wiki reference that I have since found.
The guy is jacked to the nines.
The car choice makes the story ironic Krypt.
Just to get back on topic, blood bath reversal under way and banking by tomorrow lunch time.
Always dump Sat. night boys.

After the drops last week I sold all the ETH I've mined to date on Sunday afternoon my time.
0.11000 ETH @ $1,542AUD
About $15AUD in electricity and $168.02AUD gross profit.

Nothing new being said but the fact that media is backing away from the 'bitcoin revolution' angle and starting to focus on the people whose lives are falling apart because of their bitcoin 'investments' is super interesting.

If this article doesn't have all the classic tell tale signs of a bubble...

I mean of course you can still get filthy rich in the midst of a bubble if you time it right; even when joining the party a little late. But when that clock strikes midnight and the party is over the amount of schadenfreude from some is going to be something else.
