If you don't know him, google his name about the AIDS drug he was trying to push and make 2800% more expensive for people all over the world

Has Martin Shkreli lost his mind or is he just trying to troll?
Martin Shkreli - February 14th 2016 -

Martin Shkreli - Twitter - Also, idiots, I've gotten in touch with Sitoshi (Bitcoin's creator) and he's agreed to help me get my money back. I always win.

My observation is as follows -

(1) Plainly (obviously) he didn't get 'in touch' with 'Sitohsi'

(2) Shkreli's recent and peculiar tweets may be just for attention

(3) Perhaps (?) Shkreli really and truly did just send (yesterday?) the equivalent of $15 millions dollars in Bitcoin to a scammer (?) for the right to be the sole owner of the music album The Life of Pablo.

Shkreli did buy (sole owner) the music ablum Once Upon a Time in Shaolin last year for $2 million dollars. The album (there is only one, no copies) can only be listened to (for the next 99 years) in places like museums (one museum at a time because there are no copies) and listeners (at places like museums) cannot record audio.

Now if Shkreil did just fork over (no pun intended, lol) $15 million dollars worth of Bitcoin to be the sole owner of the new music album The Life of Pablo he's done so for nothing because it appears that the album was released to the public today (Feb 14, 2016).

Another hypothesis of what this may be all about -

(4) Making $15 million dollars 'disappear'

Perhaps Shkreli will now stash $15 million dollars away somewhere in secret and when the Courts go after all of his assets he will claim that he he lost $15 to a 'scammer' using Bitcoin?

Wow! That's some nice hindsight you have there! I didn't even think that far ahead, haha. This may actually be the cause.

I saw this the other day: http://www.cnbc.com/2016/02/04/martin-s ... gress.html

and he just seems like a douche in general, hope he won't get away with it the same way that FBI agent didn't.

Or Sitoshi is a Nigerian scammer ready to relieve him of some extra cash (just pay my expenses to update the blockchain first. That ain't cheap you know!)

But in all seriousness I think nandibear is most likely correct. Hard to prove though. Which would be exactly the point.

I would hate to be his lawyer. He has already gone through a few, even got 1 arrested.

Hows that for the "worst client ever" ;)

Haha, I can imagine, his twitter account is being ridiculous lately.
