  1. Sounds like BitCoin hit another coming of age milestone with one of its players joining the Dead Bankers Club.

    2. I'm starting to take a shiny to JW. This is a good, funny comment. He's had a few very good ones lately. As long as he doesn't talk Econ, JW's alright.

  3. I haven't been keeping up on Bitcoin because I don't understand it. Help me understand: Why would the Bitcoin bankers kill themselves?

    Is it because they were once rich and now are going to be poor?
    Or because they lost a lot of OTHER people's money and they feel guilty?
    Or because they committed crimes or fraud and don't want to get caught?
    Or all of the above?
