PPs! It just makes sense to me, haven't seen or heard this postulated anywhere yet.
Starting to believe the shell may not be so empty after all, but pretty sure they'll either be buying, or just paying infinite rents. :-)

Thanks, RC! Guess the Jacques Tits / blockchain clue was worth checking out after all. :-)
Ready Player One is part of hodler film history, discussed repeatedly on stonks subs over the past three years. Gettin' hyped tonight for next week, watching for maybe the 10th time, and... BAM. Never saw this graffiti in this way before, now can't believe I've missed lo these many years.
At the end of the previous scene, Samantha and Wade meet IRL for the first time. and Samantha says "Welcome to the rebellion, Wade." Nice. Let's git some!
So, I've just read the HR and Senate versions of these bills, and I agree- they are too broadly-worded for the stated intent (foreign adversary data limitation)- especially the Senate bill. After writing my US Senators tonight (the House Rep still to go), I recalled that last year, RC told us "TikTok." Do you have an idea why? Speculation or DD, all is fair here, in the usual Ape spirit of open inquiry. Whaddya got?
Somewhere on RDDT someone thought the first O looked like a moon. I'm thinking it's a more like an eclipse, as in... April '24. I'll speculate that something will be -ahem- revealed at that time :-)
Timely reminder, DRS = "Not your coins, not your crypto." Coinbase founder dumped 100% of holdings, and if they go down, crypto assets they hold wind up in the bankruptcy. Chickens are coming home to roost: https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1732c08/sbf_testimony_matt_huang_paradigm_a_crypto/
Don't think RC's are gonna write in a Teddy book "watch out for electric coin centralized exchange ponzi pump n' dump" and "be careful when Coinbase founder dumps 100% of holdings leaving households as bag holders." He's a pretty subtle guy. DFV knew. Not your coins, not your crypto. Also DRS.
"Debunking" LOL
Mossy doesn't want this seen, wonder why..

So... I take it your answer is "no" to the whole helping-dig thing. No worries :-)
Whoa there, no blunder here. Why the lecturing tone? You can indeed follow links from Tits' wikipedia page right on through to the link that includes PKC and Bitcoin, so writing a paragraph to imply I'm unaware of that only outs yourself. I use public keys in my day job, as one does, but thanks for the attempt at education. Gamestop hasn't "abandoned" their technology, as far as anyone publicly knows. As you say, we must wait to see "whatever comes after." GS only canceled the first implementation of the NFT marketplace, we all know that, but what and how that tech may be utilized in the future is unknown. Why spout off at a post inviting folks to dig deeper into an RC-hinted name, when we find one that is DEEP into cryptography? Do you not want us digging? Fortunately, we don't need permission to do that. RC is a puzzle master and that's how this game has been played, and I've been in it for ~~84~~ 3.5 years now. And btw, I noted my cross-posting in the above post itself, because it's a thing one does. Cheers.
OK gang, RC provides the clues, therefore we gotta dig, and in this case I can use some additional sparkplugs (that’s you!). Dr Jacques is in the books, he’s grabbing his lapel nametag, conveniently located adjacent to his pectoral region, we all thought “ha ha, that’s Jake!” and moved along. But Jacques Tits turns out to be quite interesting. He’s a doctor of advanced mathematics, from Belgium, spent his life in France, lots of crazy advanced math in his wikipedia page- even has various theories and constructions named for him. Died recently, on 5 December 2021. So- following links (below), we go to Group Theory, down to Public-Key Cryptography (interesting…) and scroll down to see “Examples of protocols using asymmetric key algorithms include: Bitcoin.”
Maybe this nothing burger deserves further study? Anyone care to help dig while we wait for some news??
Dave.

I'd agree, definitely interesting. Anyone know if GameInformer usually covers/publicizes these kinds of promotional talks by large firms like Microsoft? It'd seem more significant if it was odd for them to cover it. I don't read the mag (but prolly should, lol).
Here's my longtime fave BBBY end-game hypothesis, one with a fair amount of humiliation for the fraudsters and SHFs:
-
After all the legal effort, BBBaby is carved out or spun off;
-
Former BBBY shareholders are given shares in the new BBBaby (holding) company, as a bonus for going through hell the past 6 months;
-
Former BBBY shareholders also receive $ from any legal settlements related to BBBY fraud investigations;
-
BBBY shareholders retain shares in the old company as well;
-
CUSIP and/or Ticker is maintained, so shorts are forced by the court to close, buying up shares in an empty shell company in order to close billions of short positions, closely watched by the SEC. BBBY price skyrockets; shareholders sell shares in the old entity at their leisure, then the price seems satisfactory.
New company and GS are well clear of the media noise and lamentations of the SHFs.
This theory has the poetic justice that I see in other elements of this play (GameSTOP, Bed Bath & BEYOND, etc). This sequence would really underline the BEYOND in Bed Bath and Beyond, and meet RC's primary goal of delighting customers (in this case, diamond-handed shareholders).
Whaddya think? Could it happen? Why or why not?
So, I started thinking- if a keiretsu usually organizes around a bank, whom among our most-favorite brands might already be rockin' an RSSD #, and thereby be sitting in prime position to get this party started? RSSD numbers are unique identifiers assigned to financial institutions by the Federal Reserve. I looked these up a couple weeks ago. Let the list begin!
Currently HAS an RSSD: AMC / Bed Bath & Beyond / Koss-Winn Bancshares / Macy's / Macy's State Street / Newell Associates / Nordstrom / Ovid Branch / Pulte Group / Revlon Inc / Revlon Financial Group / Sears / Sears & Roebuck / Toys 'R' Us
Did NOT HAVE an RSSD: 09302023 / 20230930 / Butterfly / DK-Butterfly / Beyond / Blockbuster / Buy Buy Baby / Chewy / DOM / Dream On Me / Gamestop / Gmerica / Icahn Enterprises /Lego / Nintendo / Overstock / Party City / Rite-Aid / Super League Enterprise / Teddy
Check any company at: https://www.ffiec.gov/NPW The FFIEC is at: https://www.ffiec.gov/
Whaddy'all think?
Am I nuts? Teddy's backpack just looks like a huge Overstock logo O to me. I have no DD about their involvement or lack of involvement in the butterfly/keiretsu/cluster being aggregated, but... I can't NOT see it now. You?

"Once in a lifetime opportunity"? Judge Michael Kaplan Bankruptcy Rules - changes coming..
(lemmy.world)
Has Judge Michael Kaplan seen enough? Are we on the right side of a very gymnastic legal exercise? Or might things be about to get better? Let's hear your thoughts.
"The Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey establishes a Chapter 11 Local Rules Committee (“Committee”) to review and recommend changes to the existing Procedures and Rules for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Cases."

Could be both tho, right? There's also this: "Ryan Cohen's tweet saying Kamala 2069 posted on 7/22/24 is exactly 69 days away from 9/29/24 which is the 1 year anniversary of BBBY's Plan Effective Date being 9/29/23." (from AvailableWerewolf600 on Reddit). Seems like that would line up.
