Bitcoin Forum

they are being briefed on the position of crypto currencies,

the main position being that crypto currencies will do to the banks what email did to the post office beyond reasonable doubt,

So, if they ban crypto-currencies, they should also ban e-mails.

"Crypto Currencies will do the banks what email did to the post office and in a much shorter time frame, though fiat cash will remain for the time as the post office has it will continue to handle an ever shrinking proportion of economic activity"

Yeah but post office business has increased delivery of small parcels and packages due to more people buying online.  Once/if it becomes profitable for banks to be involved with bitcoin they will.  You forget that banks are in the business of printing money other finance companies that don't have a printing press like PayPal, Western Union and MoneyGram are all showing interest in bitcoin.

Source, please?

Post offices have been hit hard you must remember they are government sponsored entities and have been saved from collapse, and the parcel increases you talk about have had the same devastating effect on the local manufacturers and other parcel companies are now in tougher competition with the post offices, so your really just talking about a flow on effect, that offered some mitigation for the post office.

Banks PP WY and MG are all just as vulnerable and will require the same mitigation affect to survive.

Same as banks here in Europe then.

As the Crypto Currency Central Bank President and Australian Rep, I am briefing them through email, and have been advised they will see it, also added the url of the doco preview,

Interesting if true. Is there a source to back up this statement?

Ok, I just googled that and found this thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=169438.0).

As you can probably easily tell by looking at my avatar, I am not a smart man, so honest question: Is this a joke?

Edit: Also, there is no url in your posts. Also, I think your comments tend to get cut off somehow, because they end with commas.

I hope you are also briefing them about the advantages.
E-mail certainly did damage the post offices, but it granted way more beneftis than it did damage.

the bitcoin source code is one example

its not a joke

who is behind this and why is it being done?

What is a "Crypto Currency Central Bank"? lol

Why... how delightfully evasive.

It's another self-appointed leader and entrepreneur of Bitcoin that speaks for all of us, don't worry! We're in good hands :)

Yeah, and this guy is a particularly ripe fruit loop from my interactions with him  :D

Unleashing him on australian senators is perfect ... we could have an army of these guys out there sowing mis-information and fallacies surrounding crypto-currencies amongst the state machinery it buys us time and jams up their gears with sand. I see no obligation for anybody to "lobby" or inform the state machinery truthfully, they have spent the last decades keeping us in the dark and feeding us bullshit about just about everything. In fact, we should set up a special PR agency (The Bitcoin Foundation springs to mind) to spew out propaganda and mis-information about crypto-currencies 24/7.
