There might be something to it, the current price and Max Keiser.

He pushed Bitcoin immensely in the last months, he'd lose his face if Bitcoin really crashed to 30.

That's maybe why he's trying to peg it.

  So the translation couldn't have captured this at the time, but by the sky it is meant in the clouds. When there is lightning, there are always clouds. In this case we are talking about CLOUD COMPUTING!

That's quite a stretch! They clearly mean plain old UFOs.  Cool

History just keeps repeating over and over again, the last days of the Roman Empire (or any large empire for that matter) looked similar to ours.

High centralization of power, much bureaucracy, so people have to be numbered and identified in a way.

Also about currency ("buy and sell"), if there are handouts, there cannot be any cheaters.

so google becomes an ISP, first in the 3rd world countries, later everywhere.

they'll know everything, they'll become skynet, quite literally.

end-to-end encryption might help, but they'll probably be able to block "unknown" encrypted traffic.

you're visible in the car on the photo.

First they'll send you as the owner of the car a nice letter where you can admit you drove the car or not. You can specify that other person in that case.

You can try to go the route to refute, but eventually you'll have to appear at the police station or get a visit, and if there is enough similarity between you and the one on the photo, you're gonna have a hard time.

And even if you're successful, you'll be ordered to maintain a driver's log in the future.
1591  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin - a potential solution to one of humanities biggest sins: Usury on: June 17, 2013, 02:12:26 PM
The difference is really that with Bitcoin, the lender carries the full risk.

If someone cannot pay back, so what? Bad luck. That's what interest is there for after all in the first place. It's a hedge against defaults. Many forget that.

Maybe a better, more modern term for "usury" would be the "socialism for the rich" that we see today. The "rich" invest and gain dividends but never have to carry the appropriate risk themselves in the age of bailouts, insider deals and government subsidies.

Ich fürchte der Mann steht vor ganz anderen Herausforderungen als sich mit dem Problemen seine Zahlungen in Bitcoin abzuwickeln herumplagen zu wollen.

Er hat ja gut verdient. Ich dachte da eher an die Methode, wie man sein Guthaben unkonfiszierbar halten kann.  Wink

Belege oder wenigestens qualifizierte Hinweise darauf oder  'es passt einfach zu gut'?

Vom Guardian:

Quote
His allegiance to internet freedom is reflected in the stickers on his laptop: "I support Online Rights: Electronic Frontier Foundation," reads one. Another hails the online organisation offering anonymity, the Tor Project.

Dass er Bitcoin gar nicht kennt, ist daher extremst unwahrscheinlich. Die Geschichte von Assange und Wikileaks (und wie sie sich zum Teil finanzieren) wird er auch gut studiert haben, bevor er sich zu dem Schritt entschlossen hat. Dass er sich dann seine Optionen genau angeschaut hat, halte ich deswegen für sehr wahrscheinlich.

1596  Local / Deutsch (German) / Re: Brieftasche Kopieren? on: June 16, 2013, 10:20:10 PM

Ich gehe ja stark davon aus, dass das nicht funktioniert. Aber wie wird das ohne Zentrale Verwaltung meines Guthabens verhindert?


Es ist richtig, dass Bitcoin keine Zentrale Verwaltung hat, trotzdem gibt es nur eine Blockchain, die aber peer-to-peer geshared wird, und die jeder Client liest und beschreibt.
