I like it. Sounds like it might be worth mining. What does it offer? A short-term high from mining then a complete hang over after difficulty increases like crazy?

Sounds fun!

IDK...but I would be in total support of an international beercoin.

The problem is that the price of beer varies wildly.

I live in Canada and we love beer.  In Ontario, the cheapest deal right now is 15 bucks for 12 bottles at the beer store.  Out on the West coast, beer is double the price.

However, I live in a border town and can go across the bridge and get a 12 pack of 5.9% USA beer for less than 8 bucks.

Most USA beer sucks, but that 5.9% Natural Ice shit will fuck you up....but our weed is better so fuck them.

I forgot what I wanted to say.....

Oh yeah...I remember what I wanted to say...  I support the MyLittlePonie Coin because I think that they have intrinsic value:
Quote
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An intrinsic property is an essential or inherent property of a system or of a material itself or within. It is independent of how much of the material is present and is independent of the form the material, e.g., one large piece or a collection of smaller pieces. Intrinsic properties are dependent mainly on the chemical composition or structure of the material.[1]

A property that is not essential or inherent is called an extrinsic property. For example, mass is a physical intrinsic property of any physical object, whereas weight is an extrinsic property that varies depending on the strength of the gravitational field in which the respective object is placed.

I would be honored to the task of creating a Beercoin x MyLittlePonyCoin exchange.

But I think such an exchange would need tons of security because it would always be hacked.

FTFY.

By the way, saying most USA beer sucks is just ridiculous. What you see exported to Canada is the equivalent of fucking kokanee or something. Get your hands on some west coast microbrews and then try and bash it.

Also, your weed is dirt, though it could be that same effect of only the worst shit getting exported. I tend to doubt that though, because every time I've been to Canada, the weed has sucked worse than the shit I smoked in high school.

U not going to the right places maybe when you come?  And honestly...  most USA beer does suck.  But that's cool... We have 'Coors Light' up here too for when you come and visit.

Although your beer is cheap, your hard stuff is expensive and overpriced.  I would buy a bottle of Canadian rye whiskey before I would even think about importing your southern mash.   :D

AAAND...when we're done with our crappy breweries we turn them into grow-ops: http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/CTVNewsAt11/20040112/pot_bust_040110/ (http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/CTVNewsAt11/20040112/pot_bust_040110/)

Beertoken and friends are still putting along same as ever, though sacarlson says they get little interest.

I prefer wine :) , hopefully someone will come out with a winecoin soon.   There are a lot of varieties you can fork quite a few different grades of wines.

I made a Cooking with Beer recipe guide yesterday.  It's called, 'The Beer Cookbook'.  Wrote it on Google's appengine in python in a few hours.

I want to accept donations in beercoins....  thats why I was trolling this thread.  :)  Just to see if beercoins was still happening.

If anyone wants to add some recipes to the cookbook, just send them to me!

http://beercookbook.appspot.com (http://beercookbook.appspot.com)

I just got the framework for the database and crap set up and have only added a few recipes so far but I will be adding a few more every day and taking suggestions from users.

Enjoy!

Meh...close!  I've got about 100 beer recipes databased in the last day and added some images for the categories and stuff.  Might do the whole thing where people can upload their own recipes and vote on them or something...eventually.  :)

But I would still like more info on beercoins if they are still going....
