Title: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: SgtSpike on June 18, 2011, 07:21:45 AM Not sure if this in inappropriate to post, but I am just curious how many people visiting these forums actually use the site. I don't know of anyone personally that uses it, yet some are claiming it has a major effect on the price of BTC. For it to have a major effect, I would expect that a lot of people who are using bitcoins are also using the site.

Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: Swishercutter on June 18, 2011, 07:39:47 AM Nope...I have never even been there so I don't know much of their content aside from the Gawker post and I am too lazy to install TOR to check it out. Even if I was looking for illegal substances I don't think I would have the balls to have them shipped.
As far as I am concerned it could be fiction...I know nobody who has actually used it. Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road?

TEN MOAR POINTS TO VICTORY Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: imperi on June 18, 2011, 04:14:08 PM I voted yes just to troll. But in a double reversal troll, I didn't actually vote yes. So I voted no.

Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: SgtSpike on June 19, 2011, 05:07:01 AM The trend seems to be staying at about 10%... and I have to assume that half the people that use it would lie about using it, so let's make that 20%.

Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: Grix on June 19, 2011, 01:07:12 PM Someone I know voted yes.
Okay, I voted yes. I hardly think the police will give two shits. I have set up a fake mailbox on a rack some blocks from my home. Even if the police has the resources and motive to track a sale and find out my "shipping adress", they wouldn't be able to know who I am. With proper precautions silk road and similar sites are great ways to bypass the government's disgusting violations of human rights. Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road?

Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: Batouzo on June 19, 2011, 01:23:49 PM If I would be buying drugs, which btw. is recently more liberal in Poland, why not do it just with cash as probably 99.9999% people do.
Obviously this "bitcoin is drugs. WAR ON DRUGS. Think of the Chiiilldreeeen blaarghhh" hysteria is idiotic. But so is war on drugs and basically all wars started by the United States of Aggression, so who knows what will happened next... Just being crazy fear mongering newer stopped idea from becoming a law in USA (and many other countries). As someone said, they are really more about banning TOR. Which would be funny seeing as the gov initially invented and sponsored it. Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road?

Because buying drugs online is safer, easier and not everyone has the "contacts" to buy in person. Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road?

Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: ColdHardMetal on June 19, 2011, 01:45:35 PM No, but I respect its right to exist.
Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: Nescio on June 19, 2011, 03:01:03 PM I'm pretty sure any number of entertainment industry piracy statistics will spring from this: "Schumer to congress: Proof that 693 million people use Silk Road! If we kill Bitcoin we have won the war on drugs!"
Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: SgtSpike on June 20, 2011, 04:31:28 PM Someone I know voted yes. Fake mailbox? That's epic, I must say... so you just created an address that didn't exist and set up a mailbox with it?Okay, I voted yes. I hardly think the police will give two shits. I have set up a fake mailbox on a rack some blocks from my home.

Post by: Nescio on June 21, 2011, 03:07:24 AM So, how does that protect you from a bugged package? Or one with an ATM style liquid paint bomb in it? Do you have a garage nearby the mailbox with scanning equipment and an underground railway escape route and a place where you can hide out for a couple of weeks until the paint wears off? :)
And you can never go back, they can sweep the neighbourhood for who suddenly didn't go to work for a couple of weeks. Which one from all the mobile patterns in the neighbourhood suddenly went AWOL etc. If they want you badly enough, you cannot hide. Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road?

They have a fake video camera watching your fake mailbox all day long with some fake detectives in fake cars...better fake your death. Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: bitrebel on June 21, 2011, 11:09:38 AM Never heard of it. ???
I get my smoke from the joint, I get my rock from the earth, I get my smack from my dad, I get my coke from the bottle, I get my meth from my exhaust, I get my dose from my doctor, and I get my crack from my ho, so what is this about Silkroad? Title: Re: POLL: Do you use Silk Road? Post by: BCEmporium on June 21, 2011, 11:12:11 AM You miss the "Silk What?" option
