Title: Sci-Fi idea Post by: Fizpok on May 23, 2013, 03:31:34 PM Aliens take over the Earth. Not because they are stronger, actually, it is just one rusty spaceship. But their navigation computer is way faster than anything on Earth, so - yes, yes - they do mining and collect enough wealth to rule the planet.
Title: Re: Sci-Fi idea Post by: Birdy on May 23, 2013, 03:38:55 PM It's more realistic that they destroy the earths financal system once it's based on Bitcoins.
They plug in their computer and the difficulty gets ridiculously high, then they do a Title: Re: Sci-Fi idea Post by: Fizpok on May 23, 2013, 03:41:32 PM True, but keep in mind that they are ALIENS, not government :)
They want to concur, not to destroy :) Title: Re: Sci-Fi idea Post by: Birdy on May 23, 2013, 03:43:01 PM True, but keep in mind that they are ALIENS, not government :) They want to concur, not to destroy :) I guess they could gather a lot of wealth with mining, but not enough to rule the world. Half of the Bitcoins are already in human hands(, are they? *g*). Would be a good starting point though.

If they just have one rusty spaceship, I'd just blow them the f88k away. Great idea though. Problem is you could replace "alien" with "any very big government" and have the same effect. Hard to blow governments the f88k away as well. Title: Re: Sci-Fi idea Post by: Fizpok on May 23, 2013, 03:53:39 PM You can not blow them - Bitcoins are ANONYMOUS! :)
OOPS! Maybe that's who Satoshi is... Title: Re: Sci-Fi idea Post by: Zangelbert Bingledack on May 23, 2013, 04:40:04 PM We'd switch to CAPTCHA-based mining that only humans are good at ;D

Title: Re: Sci-Fi idea Post by: tysat on May 23, 2013, 07:52:27 PM True, but keep in mind that they are ALIENS, not government :) They want to concur, not to destroy :) Who are they agreeing with? Or do you mean they want to conquer? :P Title: Re: Sci-Fi idea Post by: Fizpok on May 23, 2013, 09:36:57 PM They only want to concur :)
Title: Re: Sci-Fi idea Post by: townf on May 24, 2013, 12:47:41 AM That is their recipe for world domination... Divide and concur
