+1 for Jeffery Tucker

a quote from the study that this is from:
"It could represent either large scale activity on Silk Road, or some form of investment or partnership, but this is pure speculation."

here's the entire thing (one of the links i have today on my site): https://s3.amazonaws.com/s3.documentcloud.org/documents/839348/silk-road-paper.pdf

it's nice that they made a point of stating it was pure speculation. i'm taking it with a large pinch of salt.

the thought of not being under the boot of the government is a sweet win. and i want to work and build stuff/solve problems no matter how much wealth i acquire, so early adopter or late adopter it's all the same to me.

bingo. in economics it's called 'time preference' -- people prefer to get things sooner rather than later.

nothing made by man is infallible, but the chances of anything going awry is small. so could there be a black swan event? yes. but probably not!

my search was "Jalapeno miner(5 GH/s)".

check what other 5 GH/s Jalapeno miner sell for. looking at some of the auctions the prices, you don't seem to have under priced it too much.

yeah, i've heard stories of buyers claiming they received a box of bricks rather than hardware. and obviously scammers aren't very price sensitive, so if they are willing to pay well over the market price, that's a warning sign.

TY, POTUS!

would expect more from them, given that they are VC funded by the same firm (USV) that funded twitter and tumblr.

hi from the uk.

what's the advantage of GoldCoin?

i saw a code for bitcoin site earlier on. if you can do the work over the internet you should be able to get paid in bitcoins. bitcoin is an internet-first currency.
