The Bitcoin is dead, dear reader! Now that Mt. Gox – the world’s
biggest bitcoin broker - has filed for bankruptcy in a Tokyo court, no fewer
than 750 million of the precious Digital Coins have simply… vanished!
Evaporated. Gone up in thin air. The way of All Flesh. Based on last Monday’s
market value, that disappearance represents some 350 billion US dollars!
Naturally utter panic is sweeping like a pecuniary tsunami over the
globe as the remaining bitcoin markets open with the pertinent time zone. Simply
EVERYBODY wants to get rid of their
holdings today. SO YOU MUST TOO, dear reader, for the value will plummet like
the piggybank that – strangely – turned out unable to fly on the day that pigs
did…!
And who’s surprised, I ask? For the bitcoin was nothing but the wet
dream of some wizzkids who managed to whip up a mirage in a parallel reality
more apt to a Matrix movie than to solid patrimony! It was regulated by no
Central Bank of anywhere. It was based on no functioning economy, had no GNP to
back it up, could not draw on any gold reserves and was guaranteed only by
buzzling mainframes chatting amiably to one another, and passing off the hollow
noise they produced for something tangible! Fried air had more body in comparison!
So SELL! SELL YOUR
POISONED BITCOINS NOW!
But Alfred, I hear you ask… Alfred, where will I go with the proceeds? I cannot put my hard earned cash
into a savings account that pays me only 1 % interest, while inflation stands
at 2,5 %, can I?
Scientifically designed FatFred |
No, dear reader, of course you cannot. But Alfred B Mittington will
not let you down. Happily, I am in the
position of offering the select and exclusive group of my regular readers a painless
way out of their dilemma. I introduce to you today the FatFred, a brand new, secure
and infallible digital currency, independent of all government manipulation,
whose exchange rate value will be determined by the old, time-proven market
mechanism of supply and demand, but which will be strictly regulated by the
indubitable and unshakable principles of Alfred B. Mittington’s moral code.
To partake of this guaranteed future bonanza you merely have to wire
over any small sum you fancy – say 1,000 or 2,500 €uros – to the bank account
IBAN NI04 ABM 0209 048 73 to the name of FatFredInc Lmt, Lagos, Nigeria.
The system of sales and of rates is remarkably simple. Every working
week, Alfred B. Mittington Corp (Cayman Isl.) will put onto the market 1,000
new FatFreds. The value of each of these units is automatically generated by the
pecuniary demand in a strictly mathematical manner. Or to put it in simple
terms which all of us may understand: if all the week’s customers together wired
over 20,000 Euros, each FatFred assigned will have a value of 20 euros. Thus,
if you yourself have contributed 4,000 euros, 200 Fatfreds will be assigned to
you by digital communication (of which you later receive, by ordinary mail, a
legally valid certificate). These you are then at liberty to sell again to any
client of your own. Since the FatFred is guaranteed to rise in value, and sure to
keep rising in value, you should have no trouble finding customers when
necessary. And if for some funny, unforeseen reason outside the influence the
Mittington Corp, there happens to occur a slight dip in the ratings, all you
need to do to fix it, is to apply for a new portfolio of FatFreds with a substantial
sum, so that next week’s ratings will rise again. Thus you will be master of
your own financial destiny!
It speaks for itself that the FatFred will be backed and fully guaranteed
by the total accumulated assets of AlMitt SA (reg. nr. B450034ABM23a at Curaçao
Investment Bank, Curaçoa), and its various subsidiaries (a full list of which
may be consulted, on application, on our limited website); while the
administration and legal handling will be impeccably executed by Baldrick
Accountancy, Postbox 10056, St Peter’s Port, Gurnsey.
This week’s subscription closes on March 7th (i.e. next
Friday). So do not tarry, dear reader. Sell your Bitcoins in a jiffy, invest
your savings in the dependable FatFred digital currency, and Create Wealth!!
But who will buy those bitcoins now that its value is plummeting Mr. Mittington? SOMEONE is sitting with 350 billion in their backpocket. Or perhaps a few someones.
ReplyDeleteI never trust anything that isn't tangible... especially when it comes to money. Too many conmen, not enough cash to keep them afloat.
ReplyDeleteWell, you can always sell them to Mittington Amalgamated GmbH (a trustworthy Swiss firm of my acquaintance); but I must warn you that - due to prospects of the Fallen Currency - it is unlikely that that company will pay more than 1 Swiss Frank to the Bitcoin.
Please note, by the by, that you do not NEED to sell BitCoins first before investing your savings in FatFreds.
Yours, ABM
I can't think of anything less tangible than the assets of this Portugal-based scoundrel, Mr Mittington. My advice is that people steer well clear of him and is get-rich-myself schemes.
ReplyDeleteIt's me! I have a remarkably large back pocket wiv (sic) 350 billion innit! I also supply the finest raiments to emperors! Step this way, guv.
