I know what you mean.

BUT.

(And it's a big but, I like big buts tbh)

It isn't just America that will suffer if he gets in again, like it or not (and I don't) what happens in the the US affects the world.

The effect his pulling out of climate accords, NATO etc. will probably fuck us all.

I think he likes us

Totally bitch don't talk like that unless she's feeling it for ya.

cum and project your image on me baby

Guy is apparently "farting a lot" (a.k.a. shitting his diaper) at his trial. Literally stinking the courtroom out.

If the US elects him again, that is absolutely on them.

I often feel sorry for the extroverts I know because they are never happy just in their own company. I think that must be awful, to need to be with other people all the time….

im an extrovert and just for that im going to hurt you:

I understand why she wanted to hide now.

Ouch! 😖😝

aint life beautiful!

Now people who inadequately communicate can be victims too! (extrovert here)

sounds like everybody

One of my favourite Radiohead songs. Also one of their best videos.

1st few seasons are money in the bank, after that he phones it in

I feel similar. The first few seasons were really compelling. It becomes a bit more formulaic in later seasons but it’s still an interesting listen.

The best Gladwell is the varieties of spaghetti sauce explanation, right? In fact I'm scampering off to TED to watch that while having my last Cali shake bif of the night. Thanks for the inspiration!

thanks thats a good one

fe is used on the dark web alright, to scam buyers especially newer ones. sellers that insist on it exit scam every fucking time.

there is a world of hedging options available out there you can fix your problem yourself.

FE is only available for high level sellers. Never seen someone do an exit scam on AB personally and I’ve been on the market for a while. Also, why would I short Bitcoin while I’m waiting for it in escrow. I’m putting money in to bet against money I’m waiting for? You say I can fix the problem myself but clearly you’re not a seller and don’t care for them, I’m not going to put in more money to bet against the money I have in escrow it wouldn’t make sense, it would be too complex as the escrow amount changed everyday and I would have to match the escrow amount which can be quite a lot to counteract the changes or I’d have to leverage it which is a quick way of losing money fast a lot of the time. At least convert the funds into a more stable coin like USDT then convert them back and release them. This seems like the best solution since some people are afraid of the FE option which doesn’t make sense btw. If a buyer does get scammed from FE they can notify everyone? Either by a review or post.

Agreed.

The idea that a finalise early option is somehow intrinsically flawed because its all about scamming is utterly ridiculous.

Yes FE scams happened on DW sites, mostly years ago before anyone knew any better. The vendor would insist that the item is paid for in advance, they build a rapport with the buyers then at some stage they inevitably exit scam.

This whole thing is easily avoidable by the site controlling the payments. So, unless a customer has confirmed they have recieved the item, the payment doesn't get released. Simple. Any vendor found asking for customers to lie about if they have recieved the item, would be almost immediately exposed on a forum like this.

When a customer recieves their item, they go to leave their review and if they are happy for the payment to be released, they tick a box, if they're unhappy they are taken to a dispute page.

It's hardly rocket science.

Anyone who doesn't review has their money kept in Escrow for the full amount of time. That's only fair. But at least the vendor would get about 50% or more of their money earlier than 16 days, which is a ridiculous amount of time considering BTC's current volatility.

The idea of exchanging the BTC for a more stable currency or coin when it reaches Transaxe, I would very much welcome.

I can, however, after nearly 3 years on here tell you that none of the above will ever happen.

It's beyond frustrating, and in the end will only result in less choice and value for the members on here, because smaller sellers will simply dissappear, and the bigger guys can set the prices at whatever they like.

Cheers BB

Same old story fella, as soon as anyone pipes up on here asking or suggesting positive changes that benefit the absolute majority, there's somehow always a few of the same people who come out of the woodwork and just gaslight the fuck out of you instead of trying to help us all come to a resolution for the issue! nice "community"

i see it happening a lot on here, it's really suspicious tbh, and the gaslighters get a bunch of upvotes too, i'd love it if votes were removed tbh so people actually have to explain themselves

you are 100% right on this one BB, keep doing you!! even though just like you said, nothing is going to change :(

I sure hope this never changes, I've been burned by f.e. on the darknet, seller said he needs the cash to send it out because i don't have an order history.

Couldn’t agree more BB. 14-16 day escrow is just too long. This is pushing me more and more towards the DW than LB. Surely there can be some form of mediation to make the sellers life easier like the BTC conversion. It wouldn’t be too difficult, just convert and convert back after escrow is over. I wouldn’t care about the 14-16 days if that was the case. But guess you’re right, sad that no one will care to make thing change but surely we can at least request it somewhere?

conversion while in escrow sounds like a good idea, transaxe could swap the coins to a token upon their initial receipt.

Why not just use stable coins to pay in the 1st place?

i think they are quite a bit harder to buy than btc.

Swapping it to USDT wouldn’t be that hard, easy to buy and widely available.

I'm sitting here with my popcorn on this one can't wait to how it turns out.

Because it's bad news for the amphetamine industry and they have more money to bribe doctors and legislators.
