Pump and Dump Thread: Post What Crypto You Think Will Be Hot

[Shami-Amourae]

I'm starting a thread to help other users on the forum to identify pump and possible dumps. I may post here what cryptos I think are good buys, or things that it might be good to sell. This is all my opinion only. Don't take anything here as serious financial advice.

I'm looking at something called PotCoin now:

This may be good thing to get into since of the cult following of Marijuana. It's something that could bring a lot of new people into the cryptocommunity. It currently doesn't have any exchanges, but it could have some explosive growth in popularity due to its name (and all the stoners potentially buying it.) It was released on January 21st, so it's still brand new as I post this. The hashrate is very high for being only 3 days old. Something to look at.

Somehow it is absurd, that these crypto-coins are introduced, often times as jokes, with very little underlying effort, and a couple of weeks later they are valued 10's of millions of dollars. While an entrepreneur who starts a business, working very hard to bring goods and services to a demanding public, organizing his company, hiring and firing, experiencing frequent set backs, risking personal ruin if investments in growth doesn't perform as expected, would be very lucky to have a company valued more than $10 million, after 40 years of hard work...

Sounds like just what the doctor ordered...or should I say central banker ordered?
Ripple will come in handy in a few years when there's literally thousands of crypto's.
Who ever is inventing these, Wall Street tech, or a kid in a basement, they are doing great.
Everytime a new one is invented, the inventer is sitting back holding millions of them at the offer price. Just sitting back and watching the money roll in from the rubes...uh, I mean investors.

That one went over my head?

Really though, if bitcoin can't catch up with what the other crypto's are doing/offering...bitcoin's days are numbered!

We live in an Idiocracy. Accept this, and evolve, or perish.

I'm supporting Potcoin now since I am learning to understand the mass psychology of idiots.

Why are you guys buying Gold/Silver? Since you hope that when the dollar crashes (if it does) a bunch of dumb people will flood into Gold/Silver, then you can sell it to them for higher than you bought it for.

This is all the greater fool. I'm just doing it with a dumber crowd of Internet kids who still live in their mother's basement.


These are just alt cryptos. Bitcoin is a valid currency right now and will/do use it to buy/sell things. These crazy alt-cryptos are just pump/dump penny stocks.

In that case Worldcoin is most attractive,

an aire of legitimacy is needed in the pump and pimp phase.

Or how can one pump and pimp without the aire of Cadillac legitimacy?

Feathercoin is being pumped back up it looks. I should have post this like 12 hours ago, but was too afraid to make a dumb call. It's obvious now, so whatever.

And the crash is coming and soon, the NSA, FBI and DEA are all monitoring purchases and reporting excess money transfers as laundering or attempts at tax evasion. Oh I forgot, did I mention you need a bank account to buy them...

BitInstant CEO Charlie Shrem Arrested for Alleged Money Laundering
The Bitcoin bigshot was arrested at John F. Kennedy airport in New York City Monday
By Jessica Roy @jessicakroyJan. 27, 20140

Charles Shrem, who ran a New York-based Bitcoin exchange, was arrested Monday and charged with engaging in a money laundering scheme with a user of Silk Road, the notorious deep web black market.

In the federal criminal complaint, the Southern District of New York charges Shrem, the 24-year-old CEO of BitInstant, with three counts, including one count operating an unlicensed money transmitting business, one count of money laundering conspiracy and one count willful failure to file suspicious activity report. Robert Faiella, a Silk Road user who operated under the name “BTCKing,” was charged with one count of operating an unlicensed money transmitting business and one count money laundering conspiracy.

The complaint alleges that Faiella took orders from Silk Road users hoping to purchase Bitcoin, the anonymous peer-to-peer crypto-currency. Shrem then filled the orders by transferring funds into an account controlled by Faiella and hosted on a third-party Japan-based Bitcoin exchange. Together the two allegedly sold over $1 million in Bitcoin to Silk Road users, who then used those Bitcoins to attempt to purchase anonymously drugs and other illegal goods from the deep web black market.

According to Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara:

“As alleged, Robert Faiella and Charlie Shrem schemed to sell over $1 million in Bitcoins to criminals bent on trafficking narcotics on the dark web drug site, Silk Road. Truly innovative business models don’t need to resort to old-fashioned law-breaking, and when Bitcoins, like any traditional currency, are laundered and used to fuel criminal activity, law enforcement has no choice but to act. We will aggressively pursue those who would coopt new forms of currency for illicit purposes.”
Shrem is a well-known advocate for Bitcoin, and is a part-owner of EVR, the only New York City bar which to accept Bitcoin. He was such an evangelist for the currency that he earned mythic status among proponents of the virtual currency in New York. “Charlie wears the [passwords] to his bitcoin account imprinted on a ring around his finger,” one Bitcoin insider told The New York Observer last April. “I heard his co-workers call him ‘four-finger Charlie’ because they joke people will want to cut his finger off to get the key. If the price keeps going up, he could have a million dollars in that ring!”

Shrem’s company BitInstant is backed by well-known Silicon Valley investors, including Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss. The exchange has been offline for many months. A class action suit was filed against Shrem’s company, BitInstant, in August, alleging misrepresentation of the speed of its services.

Update 2:25pm

Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, co-founders of Winklevoss Capital, a firm that is an investor in BitInstant, provided TIME with the following statement:

When we invested in BitInstant in the fall of 2012, its management made a commitment to us that they would abide by all applicable laws – including money laundering laws – and we expected nothing less. Although BitInstant is not named in today’s indictment of Charlie Shrem, we are obviously deeply concerned about his arrest. We were passive investors in BitInstant and will do everything we can to help law enforcement officials. We fully support any and all governmental efforts to ensure that money laundering requirements are enforced, and look forward to clearer regulation being implemented on the purchase and sale of bitcoins.
