>FUD some more you, glowie faggot
I'm not fundding at all you fat faggot. Ripple was/is a generic term for a type of carbonated wine favored by homeless people and poorfags. Therefore, I'm surprised you weren't already aware of it. Stay fat.

you can watch the action live on krakens futures exchange https://futures.kraken.com/dashboard

he's buying in increments on 41 and 9 dollars too. very strange behavior.

he's either loading up on futures quietly to pump his long position latter on, or he's trying to disturb the market so that he can dump his long position and make money on shorts somewhere else?

to anyone claiming a massive capital loss the government will want documentation. for anyone who wants to go legit with massive gains and was honest in their reporting of their 1 million dollar gain in 2017, they're getting fucked.

I just put two and two together

>anon posts a warning saying there will a liquidity "event" happening soonTM
>Bitamin is crashing hard internally and firing half their employees to cut costs
>Their IPO is now a non-starter
>they are probably all out of funds to prop up Bitcoin Cash
>The only thing they have left is a million Litecoins
>UFC fight is being promoted and advertising Litecoin as one final way to draw normie liquidity to prop up the Lietcoin price
>Bitmain either sells it's Litecoin OTC, on the open market, or both.
>likely on the open market, since no ones going to buy a million Litecoins at these prices unless severely discounted (think 50%)
>even if Bitmains litecoins are sold OTC for a severe discount, the buyer will be motivated to sell on the open market to redeem their discount until they hit equilibrium.

The question is, what will a million litecoins be buying? USDT? USD? USDC? Gemini Token? Bitcoin Cash?

DO NOT BUY LITECOIN

I got a question about some checks I've been getting. I'll give you the tl;dr now, followed by some details for those interested in helping me.

> tl;dr why am I receiving pension checks?

Now for the deets.
I own a construction/ landscape company, but since it's small, I mostly do sub contracts or or just get hired by companies who want someone experienced to supervise.
One such company hired me, but as a labourer, since I would be getting my hands dirty. I was paid prevailing wages ( 30.00 an hour). I helped this company get back on schedule, and, After about a month, they were all caught up. I was originally hired for irrigation installation and tree planting on a busy street, but they weren't ready for me yet, so they temporarily "laid me off". However, they made it clear I was still employed.

A month later, I get a check in the mail with "pension" written on it. The next month, same thing. What I want to know is, can I expect another check like this, or is this just them paying me the money back that I had taken out of my checks for taxes n shit?
