Agreed on C.
From the top comment in that thread, it looks like the company with insurance underwritten by Lloyd's is Elliptic.

It's not what is posted here, just what I thought it was going to be.

My understanding is that Mtgox is using Minji Saisei.
I hope this made what I meant a bit clearer.
This relies on the large wall not being an attractive offer for someone who has the purchasing power to obliterate it, which is where it occasionally fails. Generally, if the market starts to move against it with any force, it's pulled or moved further back behind other orders.
Another way this can be used is by putting up a wall on the opposite side of your real order to drive demand - i.e. in the scenario above, you might be trying to buy at 220. If you put up a huge wall at 224, people will be more willing to fill your order at 220 than if the orderbook was much thinner.
It seems this is called spoofing in the financial world.
Imagine you started XorNotBux, announced you were planning to sell a billion of them in a few months, then inflated the price with a much smaller supply in circulation. Some people will buy this (and possibly profit) fully knowing that you plan to obliterate it in the near future.
It turns out people can make huge returns even from investing in known scams - certainly not guaranteed, but it's better odds than gambling.
My statement was from the angle that if you get ripped off in a situation like this, there is no recourse for you, and not legal advice that you cannot get in trouble for participating in these activities.
It was originally happening in the public channel #dogecoin-market on Freenode but was then moved to the private channel #marketmakers, which seems to have spurred people to start sharing it everywhere since now it's private.
Wolong is the guy who brought the Dogecoin price to where it is now by investing a ton of money into it, and due to that and some charisma he's attracted a cult following. He's now using that cult following to have them do pump/dump ops for him (with their money).
Here's his manifesto: http://pastebin.com/RdRAULtT
It's entertaining, I'm waiting for someone to do a solid article on the story.
Bear in mind that cryptocurrencies are currently an unregulated wild west, where activities like these are both common and legal. Do not invest anything you are not prepared to lose.
edit: just for further corroboration, here's logs from a few days ago: http://pastebin.com/1NTTBCXM
You can check the charts at http://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/cryptsy/dogebtc and see how that was responsible for a drop to 212. From memory they were using about 36million dogecoins, which comes out to approximately 78btc or $65,000.
My pet theory is that wolong is just building trust at this point so he can eventually have his army of followers buy all his dogecoins at inflated prices, but who knows. No matter what happens, it's very entertaining to watch develop.
This study goes way over my head, but if the goal is to boost ATP isn't creatine monohydrate supplementation a cheap and effective way to do so currently?
"Not signed out" can be rephrased as "not not signed in" and thus simplified to "signed in". Same for "not untrusted ip" equaling "not not trusted ip" and, after DN, simply "trusted ip".
It's completely logical, so I'm not sure what your point is. Perhaps the article should have explained this better.
I'd imagine a site like Facebook would have much lower ad blocking rates than average, though, due to low technical ability among users.
Using a phone without your name attached to it is not equal to anonymity: https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2009/05/on_the_anonym...
Imagine if you had data on all cell phones, including location at time of call - wouldn't it be remarkably easy to match a disposable phone with it's predecessors based on when and where it was used, and who it was used to contact? For how, see this article: http://justsecurity.org/2013/10/11/nsa-call-records-database...
> The [Hemisphere project] slides emphasize the program’s value in tracing suspects who use replacement phones, sometimes called “burner” phones, who switch phone numbers or who are otherwise difficult to locate or identify.

It's possible to tether anyway, but YMMV - it's through workarounds like using only HTTPS, setting up a VPN, or changing your desktop user agent.
I picked WoW instead of a game like EVE Online because scamming is not an expected part of the game.
I'm not aware of any criminal proceedings against people who stole WoW gold, but it is an entirely different matter if actual money (i.e. USD) was taken.
tl;dr: the insulin spike from high glycemic index foods causes sleepiness, and low insulin sensitivity which can be caused by sleep debt and lack of exercise exacerbates it.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postprandial_somnolence
> When foods with a high glycemic index are consumed, glucose is absorbed rapidly from the gastrointestinal tract into the bloodstream, and in individuals with normal carbohydrate metabolism, insulin levels rise concordantly to drive glucose into the body's tissues and maintain blood glucose levels in the normal range. Insulin stimulates the uptake of valine, leucine, and isoleucine into skeletal muscle, but not uptake of tryptophan. ... Uptake of tryptophan by the brain thus increases. In the brain, tryptophan is converted to serotonin, which is then converted to melatonin. Increased brain serotonin and melatonin levels result in sleepiness.
