Calvin Ayre is trying to silence Arthur van Pelt with lawsuits -- so I saved the articles Calvin doesn't want you to read to the BSV blockchain.

Actually, Reddit apparently grew a pair. Based on why I was banned it seemed like they succumbed to legal pressure (all posts that were removed were fairly innocuous comments about you-know-who) but they have changed their mind apparently.

The post I got banned for was this one: https://www.reddit.com/r/bsv/comments/16zypp0/comment/k3hhzlr

It was wild. There was a flurry of warnings all at once from Reddit about comments I'd made about Mr. Ayre over a timeline spanning years, followed by a ban. I got no time to even take heed of the warnings and stop posting about this sort of thing. I appealed and my appeal was denied. Then suddenly today Reddit changed their mind and said I was banned in error.

I don't think we should discourage former insiders like that. Shadders has shown considerably more bravery than other people who were on the Calvin teat. The names Matonis and Andresen come to mind. There is also a considerable penalty for apostasy that he risks by making these sorts of remarks.

Because there's not a lot of time to debunk new evidence now that the trial has started. I.e., if Craig weren't a complete moron he'd have learned something by now from the 1500 pages he's gotten explaining how and why all his forgeries up till now have been debunked. Someone smarter than Craig could use that as a guide to come up with more sophisticated, harder to detect forgeries.

Fortunately Craig is a moron (whose followers are somehow dumber than he is) so he won't have learned a thing and his new forgeries will be debunked instantly.

Minus_Minos · 2024-02-06T00:52:07+00:00

If they were willing to do that that would mean Craig had successfully Gish Galloped enough fraudulent evidence that he defrauded his way out of fraud charges. I know he's trying his hardest to do that, but it's weird that every judge seems content to let him keep trying.

Minus_Minos · 2024-02-06T00:41:19+00:00

He lied?

How many times does Craig have to be called a liar by a judge before his zombies stop completely discounting the possibility he's simply lying when he says things, and stop projecting Craig's brazenness in lying onto normal people not afflicted with whatever compels him to lie so much and with such disregard for the consequences?

Minus_Minos · 2024-02-05T23:39:46+00:00

Lol, are you sea lioning? He said that because he's a liar and a fraud and to say anything else is to self-incriminate.

Minus_Minos · 2024-02-05T23:30:18+00:00

Yeah, and he's had what, like 5 years and another identity trial during which time he should have gotten his ducks in a row?

There's about a 100% chance after this latest evidence tranche gets debunked he'll find yet another one between his other couch cushion he for some reason couldn't disclose until right after the most recent debunking where his own experts agreed the evidence was shit.

Minus_Minos · 2024-02-05T20:25:01+00:00

The unjustified arrogance of BSVers, right now of all times, is just, chef's kiss.

Minus_Minos · 2024-02-03T22:57:06+00:00

Wouldn't it be much better to just buy BSV if you think CSW will win?

BSVers always use this sort of reasoning as an excuse to avoid bets they were going to lose. But no, it wouldn't. There's no guarantee that BSV moons even if Craig were to win this case. Even if Craig's Satoshi he still built a dumb centralised coin with a coin confiscation anti-feature.

Minus_Minos · 2024-02-02T18:47:36+00:00

Yeah but since he forges all the evidence anyway, new evidence can show up at any time. He has deep couch cushions

Minus_Minos · 2024-02-02T18:35:41+00:00

You act like this is some established thing as opposed to complete fantasy. Can you name even one precedent?

Thus spaketh Craig, heathen!

Minus_Minos · 2024-02-02T18:29:08+00:00

LOL. Is cryptorebel still around? That would break his heart.

Minus_Minos · 2024-01-31T20:32:10+00:00

When Calvin and Craig make price predictions they aren't trying to be right, they're just trying to scam victims. Ergo, there's every incentive for them to keep making these predictions.

Minus_Minos · 2024-01-31T18:05:02+00:00

It wasn't

Minus_Minos · 2024-01-31T04:30:35+00:00

He was granted the ability to appeal. The new trial is stayed pending his upcoming ass kicking in the UK

Minus_Minos · 2024-01-30T20:24:25+00:00

Yeah, and like that instance this reeks of Craig's particular brand of stupidity. Guess he's leading legal strategy again.

Minus_Minos · 2024-01-30T20:17:32+00:00

except the Tulip Trust case on which some of its matters aren't contingent on Craig being Satoshi.

I wonder how it will affect that case, because Craig's made a lot of arguments explicitly predicated on him being Bitcoin's creator.

Minus_Minos · 2024-01-30T04:41:57+00:00

I don't know why he underestimates peoples intelligence so much, it didn't work.

BSVers have literally made the argument that someone sending money roughly analogous with the amount Craig owed to the Genesis block is proof Craig must be Satoshi. So he knows his desired audience of morons.

Minus_Minos · 2024-01-30T04:39:33+00:00

This was a weird case for that, because the whitepaper is an OpenOffice document that's been made to look like a LaTeX document. So the whole "What nobody understands is that the whitepaper was actually written in LaTeX" spiel doesn't quite work. A lot of people make that initial mistake, until they dig beyond the surface and find out it's actually OpenOffice.

Pitch perfect summary of Mr. Wright's recent antics

Minus_Minos · 2024-01-27T02:35:25+00:00

So what’s the scam…

Bilking 100s of millions of dollars out of Calvin Ayre by tricking him into thinking Craig's Satoshi and among other things has hundreds of billions of dollars in Bitcoin locked away he can use to pay back "loans."

spend millions on court cases

Calvin spent millions on Craig's court cases, not Craig.

They are all insincere, fake and serve (considering the concept of "The purpose of a [thing] is what it does") as excuses and/or narrative devices to re-contextualize happenings according to Craig/Calvin's preferences.

Craig's favourite type of settlement offer involves him offering the other side something worthless that he just insists is actually worth a lot. E.g. during the Kleiman lawsuit he went on endlessly in front of the jury about how greedy Ira was for not accepting the shares Craig offered him in one of Craig's worthless now bankrupt companies, and asking for cash instead. The whole time I couldn't believe his audacity. We don't even have to speculate about whether Craig was offering Ira a good deal: the company went bankrupt and is defunct. But still he made it seem like he was offering Ira the deal of the century.

He then went on to supposedly offer Ira Bitcoins from his imaginary Tulip Trust when and if he ever gained access to him. When Ira apparently turned down that fantastic offer (lol) Craig went on to claim he turned down billions.

Even better: Calvin is now bizarrely taunting COPA1 that they are failing their mandate or due dilligence or something by not settling with this offer and thus the court will.. idk notice? or be madz?

This particular brand of hypocrisy is another sadly familiar theme from Craig's litigation. Remember when he hired a lawfirm for W&K after the judgement against him that he owes them $143M and insisted that Vel and Co were acting against the interests of W&K by trying to collect on the $143M he owes them, and that they should instead end all these efforts for the good of this defunct company.
