Stolen Stollen
Yeah, struggling to seen what was stolen, a share of unbaked cake, a share of the idea of cake. Jimbo.2 wasn't stolen, Ethereum wasn't stolen.
errr....
No wait - they bought Jimbo2-Coin from Jimbo2, with a loan of Ethereum-Coin borrowed from Etherium and sold the Jimbo2-coin back to Jimbo2 in exchange for it's value in Etherium-Coin, and paid Etherium back in Etherium-Coin?
In between buying the Jimbo2-coin, and selling it back, the 'value' of Jimbo2-coin went up (and presumably went down afterwards) and they shoved the difference (in Etherium-Coin) in their wallet.
*cough "the value shares can go down, as well as up" - or is it the other way around - meh.
Well, isn't it Jimbo2 who has the Jimbo2-coin - why are they looking elsewhere?
Nothing was stolen - maybe there is some kind of regulation against 'pump & dump' manipulating prices -so the perpetrators engaged in a crime, but the crime wasn't theft, was it? Shurely not.
Same-same with Fiat currency.
Who set the rate of Jimbo2-coin? The 'Market' or Jimbo2? I think it was Jimbo2... or Jimbo2's automated system - well get the system to put the value up again when no-one is looking...
If it was 'The market' well, 'the market' can shift the share price up momentarily to cover the difference. ad-infinitum - unless the market doesn't give shit about Jimbo2's woes because 'unregulated man, code is law - no luck'.
Isn't crypto better suited to clawing back, or freezing 'manipulated money' anyway - isn't it on the Chainz™ Doesn't it have a serial number?
"These serial numbers are considered 'counterfeit - do not process any transaction with these numbers, any transaction made with them is now void (press enter)
What about wallets, at least tell me the Chainz™ know what wallet the 'value' went into - can you create, and bin anonymous wallets on the fly all over the place, or can wallets get fingered as ' hot'?
At least that way, it's not just Jimbo2 trying to get 'value' back - a lot of other traders will be hunting the 'value' of their now void transactions too, and also keeping an eye out for anyone brandishing a wallet that says 'Mean Muthafukka'
Soooo many rhetorical questions.
High Finance, and Crypto - buggered if I know how it works - that's why I'm poor.
