Anyone else finding the current state of Bitcoin surreal? by toomanynamesaretook in Bitcoin

Yes... but I suspect it is more related to them operating a fractional reserve that had as many as a million coins less than they were supposed to. Lack of supply causes prices to go up, actual Bitcoins became scarce on the exchange as people withdrew. I sometimes wonder if the entire 2013 rise was due to Gox's missing coins.

Would lead one to wonder if Mr. Khan is still in control over there. Credulity = strained.

Had all lights on. Stayed outside demolition perimeter. Was within view of the police and the fire department on the scene. Standing by them. Not hiding. Did test flights before the demolition.

Regarding the disconnect? Lost wifi, etc? There is a homepoint programmed.

Regarding lost GPS? It was within visual sight, and I damn sure would have just manual flown it to me.

Regarding dust or debris? Really? Did you even watch my video? Ridiculous. Come on.

Stayed within the law. Had as much right to safely film the event as the news media.

sheesh.... so... a trained engineer with more media experience than them isn't allowed to film it, but they are?
