I bit on the Doll Vig the first week or so when I got here but I've seen that kind of digital product launch promo too many times before and stopped looking. It's sad who people will follow just because they've managed to accumulate some coins.
And while a lot of people seem to think that it takes some kind of special insight, some of them just got lucky and were in the right place at the right time.
Remember, Even a BlindSquirl finds a nut now & then. ;-)
Dollar Virgil is also setting traps for himself which will end up being a part of his "ultimate" demise. The thing he is hoping for (end to the marriage betwixt politics and big business) would lead to the destruction of the bitcoin bubble. There's a reason he failed to recognize the 2001 tech bubble and let a $240 million company go on to become worth next to nothing. And he didn't learn the reason during teh tech meltdown. Dollar Virgil is in fact the type of entity that is creating teh situations he wants to see destroyed. He's stemmits "most interesting member" as far as I am concerned. It isn't very often you get to see a self proclaimed ex-spurt get taken down by his own stupidity. I will be there for every step of the journey. Be careful of the "facts" he interjects into his arguments. he just recently said "the dollar is off by 90% since 2011!"...he meant since he started tracking bitcoin of course. He'll ignore the very thing that will kick his ass until he can't ignore it any longer.

That's the problem we have in our society, people are always ready to follow a "cult of personality" no matter what their track record is.
I can sometimes spot them now, but I still fall under their spell occasionally.
