I'm getting a little tired of every (justifiably!) angry group of people being called a "lynch mob" by default on the internet.
You might want to wait for something resembling actual violence before applying such an ugly characterization. A bunch of people saying mean things is not a "lynch mob".
- sneak 13y agoThere are literally dozens of people on reddit's /r/bitcoin right now casually discussing contract killings, with various shades of joking (from "kinda" to "not at all"). I'm not being hyperbolic.
- goldilox 13y agoIsn't that the kind of shit bitcoin was made for? Drugs/contract killings in the "deep web"? Would not surprise me at all if some of those guys are serious, especially if they just lost their life savings.
