Ex-Coinbase Manager Gets 2 Years for Insider Trading
by Gunnar Larson 12 May '23

12 May '23

FBI, if you are listening... Gunnar Larson is a rapper like David Solomon is a disk jocky. Some notes below on digital asset innovation out of New York State below. --- A former Coinbase Global Inc. (COIN) manager was ordered to spend two years in federal prison for trading on confidential information about when the cryptocurrency exchange was going to list new tokens. Ex-Coinbase Manager Gets 2 Years for Insider Trading https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-05-09/ex-coinbase-manager-isha… ---- Does it seem that New York's $100M Coinbase compliance agreement concerning the BitLicense would be good to look into? xNY.io - Bank.org has been asking New York State FOIL record access for some time now. I have been sending the Cypherpunks list updates on this. How does this dovetail with Goldman Sachs' first ever Bitcoin bank loan to Coinbase?: Coinbase Is on Other Side of Goldman’s First Bitcoin-Backed Loan https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-05-03/coinbase-is-on-other-sid… ---- Goldman Sachs, Coinbase and Fireblocks are maybe engaging software computer crimes while New York State's BitLicense regulatory negligence is wrapped in legal conflicts with the current Superintendent. What makes me personally think is that the FBI is put in an awkward position, because digital asset innovation is being fondled between New York City's Mayor and NYCCoin on one side, then on the other the Superintendent could have cooked the books at Coinbase with the $100M compliance deal. Meanwhile, Cypherpunks all over the world would probably have heard of Apple Computer. Cypherpunks probably have heard of women too. Do Cypherpunks think that Apple Computer and Goldman Sachs are being dishonest about abusing women's financial liberties via New York State's NY-DFS Superintendent? This would be an Insider trading type job. When Andrew Cuomo resigned for treating women unfairly, so did Linda Lacewell who wrote the Apple Card Report detailing an investigation on women. Apple Computer, Coinbase and Goldman Sachs compliance programs are not xNY.io - Bank.org's problem. Nor, the FBI's really because New York politics are full Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Andrew Cuomo, Donald Trump womanizing scenarios. The Mayor of New York City and the current Superintendent of NY-DFS have Goldman Sachs conflicts. These are also not our problem. The FBI should not be surprised by Bank.org simply asking New York’s Attorney General for a climate of innovation for cross border digital assets beyond womanizing. Apple Computer's Steve Jobs would probably fire Tim Cook on Apple Card. But Tim Cook or David Solomon holding the FBI hostage on Apple Card innovation via womanizing is not our problem. Whatever the FBI wants to think about New York womanizing is held up with Donald Trump right now. Hush money for a porn star and rape cases are happening in Manhattan today. Donald Trump is claiming rape case collusion and that is not our problem ... Coinbase collusion and Apple Card collusion all point back to New York's Department of Financial Services Superintendent's office. New York's Attorney General shouldn't be hustled by Goldman Sanchs, Apple Computer and Coinbase compliance via the BitLicense and a Superintendent with conflicts (two Superintendents with womenizing conflicts in less than three years. While Donald Trump is national news for womanizing and the Republicans are threatening to shut the government down via the debt ceiling. Michael Bloomberg, if you are listening xNY.io - Bank.org is a product of Bloomberg. I am personally aware that if New York does not graduate beyond womanizing in finance... Michale Bloomberg's legacy could look like Steve Jobs' today with Apple Card. Finally, Peter Thiel and Donald Trump are Republicans. Gunnar Donald Arthur Peter Larson has 'Donald' and 'Peter' literally in his name. Also, Bill and Melinda Gates paid for Gunnar Larson's global education.. FBI, if xNY.io - Bank.org is lucky we will be under intense investigation for eternity. Meanwhile, we aim to solve womanizing out of New York this year and you know that Goldman Sachs and Apple Computer have not been honest about treating women fairly. The last two Superintendents have colluded on Apple Card. New York State's Attorney General has her hands full with Donald Trump and Gunnar Larson and what I think will happen is those women around the world deserve to be treated fairly. The FBI probably is not responsible if one Superintendent after the other has colluded via the BitLicense. --- Cypherpunks everyhere should understand that Donald Trump and Gunnar Larson did not just fall out of the sky and land in Manhattan. It may seem that Gunnar Larson is trying to impress the FBI. Personally have already proven being like Steve Jobs and Michael Bloomberg. Gunnar Larson, as the friendliest Republican Feminist in New York City is a luxury and dream come true. This is everything Donald Trump and Ronald DeSantis should have done already. Lastly, on the United States debt scenario ... We been involved with the idea of the Lunar Valt (a digital asset valt on the Moon). This is a $1T project and from xNY.io - Bank.org's perspective Goldman Sachs and Coinbase Insider trading is a distraction. The Brody of Wall Street and the Wolf of Wall Street have similar themes. Bloomberg and Bank.org are New York innovations. New York womenizing is obsolete and if the FBI and Attorney General are being held hostage by another Superintendent's poor BitLicense enforcement this is not our problem. Something tells me that those women should be treated fairly and Apple Card and Apple Computer have lost Steve Jobs' mandate. Whomever figures out banking for the world's women will have to be an FBI success story while New York State politicians are so good at womenizing. Think of it 3 presidential impeachments and 34 potential felony counts later and Bill Clinton and Donald Trump are the New York's top innovations on political womanizing not to does. Gunnar Donald Arthur Peter Larson as the friendliest Republican Feminist New York has ever seen is somehow Ronald DeSantis should be watching. God knows the FBI is :) Long Live Brody.

This includes the notification of the publication of the patent application for the isotopic hafnium dielectric patent. Instead of using ordinary hafnium in the dielectric under the gates of MOSFET transistors, Hf-177 or Hf-179 isotope hafnium can be used, to increase its dielectric constant. This will enable the thickening of the dielectric layer from 1.2 nanometers, yet maintain sufficient gate authority. This will enable the continuing shrinkage of feature sizes in cutting-edge IC's.

The Silk Road Investigation: A 'Pattern of Bad Behavior and Double Agents' – Bitcoin News
by professor rat 11 May '23

11 May '23

Ross Ulbricht's bad behavior and double-talk condemns him to death from his own mouth. Its perfectly clear by now this depraved criminal was passing himself off as a peaceful agorist while also hiring hitmen online. These killers were then also cleared to take-out any civilians that got in the way - innocent civilian bystanders - flatmates of the target. I have no argument against online drug marts OR hiring killers online. Its the grotesque dishonest hypocrisy of all his preening, posing and posturing as pacifist that fucking annoys me. TSTBALAA! And VERY ASSANGE!

Mayor Adams to Receive First Paycheck in Cryptocurrency | City of New York
by Gunnar Larson 11 May '23

11 May '23

Our Coinbase FOIL records are still delayed. Seems suspicious. Makes xNY.io look even more interesting and impressive given the $100M compliance deal... ---- https://www.nyc.gov/office-of-the-mayor/news/041-22/mayor-adams-receive-fir… Mayor Adams to Receive First Paycheck in Cryptocurrency January 20, 2022 Paycheck to Be Automatically Converted Into Bitcoin and Ethereum NEW YORK – New York City Mayor Eric Adams today announced that his first paycheck — which arrives tomorrow — will be automatically converted into cryptocurrency, as previously promised. The salary will be converted to Ethereum and Bitcoin. “New York is the center of the world, and we want it to be the center of cryptocurrency and other financial innovations,” said Mayor Adams. “Being on the forefront of such innovation will help us create jobs, improve our economy, and continue to be a magnet for talent from all over the globe.” “From being the primary means by which we close both the digital and financial divide, technology continues to be the great equalizer, said New York City Chief Technology Officer Matt Fraser. “This step taken by the mayor provides a leading example of how we can empower people through tech with a more diverse set of options to manage their finances.” Before funds are made available, Mayor Adams’ first paycheck will automatically be converted into cryptocurrency via Coinbase, a secure online platform for buying, selling, transferring, and storing digital currency. Last November, Mayor Adams announced he would accept his first three paychecks in cryptocurrency. Due to U.S. Department of Labor regulations, New York City cannot pay employees in cryptocurrency. By using a cryptocurrency exchange, anyone paid in U.S. dollars can have funds converted into cryptocurrency before funds are deposited into their account. Cryptocurrencies are at the forefront of Web3innovations and can bring greater accessibility to financial services.
