Fun times!

HN discussion, including poo-poohing his conviction (with 10 month prison sentence) for improperly storing and selling explosives as "just selling firecrackers":

Also Mike Hearn shows up and is topical regarding Nix:

Note that the same tactics that were used to wreck Bitcoin are now being deployed against Nix, as the open source community has struggled to learn the right lessons from Bitcoin.

I'm Roger Ver, long time Bitcoin advocate and investor. Today I'm at the Roger Ver world headquarters in custody. I had a nice chat with the Roger Ver CEO, Roger Ver, about their current situation. He showed me multiple tax bills, as well as letters from tax authorities and lawyers. I'm sure that all the current tax problems with Roger Ver are being caused by the traditional taxation system, not because of a lack of taxes paid by Roger Ver. The traditional taxation partners that Roger Ver needs to work with are not able to keep up with the demands of the growing Roger Ver economy. The people that make up the Roger Ver team are hard at work establishing additional taxation partners, that eventually will make dealing with Roger Ver easier for all their tax agencies around the world. For now, I hope that everyone will continue working on Roger Ver projects that will help make Roger Ver's world a better place.
