this is too funny
I was shooting heroin and reading The Fountainhead in the front seat of my privately owned police cruiser when a call came in. I put a quarter in the radio to activate it. It was the chief.
Bad news, detective. We got a situation.
What? Is the mayor trying to ban trans fats again?
Worse. Somebody just stole four hundred and forty-seven million dollars worth of bitcoins.
The heroin needle practically fell out of my arm. What kind of monster would do something like that? Bitcoins are the ultimate currency: virtual, anonymous, stateless. They represent true economic freedom, not subject to arbitrary manipulation by any government. Do we have any leads?
Not yet. But mark my words: were going to figure out who did this and were going to take them down provided someone pays us a fair market rate to do so.
Easy, chief, I said. Any rate the market offers is, by definition, fair.
