I went back to look for some of his pictures a while back and most of them were gone. A bunch of them were google links and I think they went when his account expired. A shame really and potentially a cautionary tale.
I don't get the reference but the picture looks funny and some other people seem to appreciate it so kudos.

What a rabbit hole...
I Googled him, just to see what comes up. It looks like he (or a copycat) wrote 3 books on how to make money with digital currencies. The publication dates closely match his last posts on BitcoinTalk.
Here's the author Amazon link.
...and his photo (from the link above):
The author bio mentions this: "He is the Game Master (retired) and Emperor of the Crypto Kingdom aka Kingdom of the Dragon", which matches Risto's activities here in the forum.
