The court order is waiting in their queue, they should get it in a week or two.
165  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What real world problem does bitcoin solve? on: May 15, 2013, 07:08:29 PM
The dangers of a world currency (USD) being dominated by a very small group of extremely rich people is much greater than any of the things you list.

True but an extremely volatile currency doesnt really solve this.
166  Economy / Services / Re: Namecoin.com is back! Now with Bitcoin, Litecoin and Namecoin support. on: May 15, 2013, 06:57:18 PM
I could never get namecoin to work. The proxy servers for it dont seem to work either.
167  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Bagsforbitcoins is up and ready to take orders!! on: May 15, 2013, 06:56:32 PM
Looks neat, if only the bag came with people who liked to play D&D and some extra time to play it.

3) If you think of the New World in Historical terms, the world that materialised out of the monarchies and dynasties of Europe and Asia, then America and Australia are classic examples of the New World.  The reins of powered are very much rooted in the central banks of the world.  We are living in the New World now it isn't a conspiracy, the next world order "the conspiracy theories hype" won't be calling it the new world order, it'll have a new name. We are in the New World now, and it has an Order to it that isn't working to the benefit of the people, and can't be changed through democratic processes, so no need to call it conspiracy, it is fact.  
Not to feed into conspiracies but it is not (new world) order but rather new (world order). A change in the way the world is run.
The point is the same. It's not a conspiracy, it's just plain facts. The world is being run by an international oligarchy.
I know what you mean.
You mean this, right?
No - thats an implementation detail.  As is the ECB and the Fed.
Right, an implementation detail of international central planning. In other words, the world is being run by an international oligarchy.

Not run by them but seriously influenced.  If millionaires formed a political party, they would have the overwhelming majority of Congress, the Judiciary and the Presidency.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2013/05/06/if-the-millionaires-party-ever-gets-its-act-together-watch-out/ They haven't but you can't expect those institutions to act hard against millionaires can you?

Likewise you can't expect much action billionaires disapprove of.  
And you wonder why I'm an anarchist?

Anarchism wouldn't' make any difference.  The rich and powerful will still have the men with guns. 

Does anyone else want to know how far these nested boxes will go?

Will the real Satoishi please stand up.

So the government can gun you down.
171  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bigger threat to Bitcoin: Govt or Corporations? on: May 15, 2013, 06:49:24 PM
Neither, obsolescence is the biggest threat. The next coin will be coming in a year or two and will overtake bitcoin by providing a stable currency that does not require a central bank.
172  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Warrant against Dwolla and Bitcoin: The Beginning of the End of Bitcoin on: May 15, 2013, 06:48:13 PM
so is bitcoin a currency or a commodity? if it's a commodity would the same rules apply?

"The definition of a money transmitter does not differentiate between real currencies and convertible virtual currencies. Accepting and transmitting anything of value that substitutes for currency makes a person a money transmitter under the regulations implementing the BSA." - http://www.fincen.gov/statutes_regs/guidance/html/FIN-2013-G001.html

Accepting anything of value? So everyone who accepts any form of money is a money transmitter?

Ripple is what you'll feel when their servers get pwned.

What better way to win a court case than to give your opponent a criminal record.
176  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A new Catchy name for 0.0001 BTC? on: May 15, 2013, 06:44:01 PM

177  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoins are the LEAST anonymous currency ever created on: May 15, 2013, 06:43:34 PM
Mixers can be compromised, how is this secure? Zerocoin seems to be the solution to this.
178  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Why Ripple™ is against everything Bitcoin on: May 15, 2013, 06:42:54 PM
