But mostly he taught me to understand Ludwig von Mises and the praxeology of the Australian school of economics and how it can be used to predict the behaviors of the market.

According to Rule 34, now RMS is a porn star. I'm never turning off "safe search" again.  |

Depending on how you look at it, Bitcoin already works like that. Your balance is stored in the block chain, and the only critical information in your wallet is the private key(s) necessary to use your balance.

The bitcoin client has at least three orders of magnitude too few features to have been written by RMS.  Are you sure about that? They did release a UNIX that had no kernel. Touché. |

Stallman is the last person who'd hide behind a pseudonym. If he believed in it, he'd gladly put his name on it, and deal with the courts if necessary.
Agreed. |

Nah, he was speaking in very general terms about some way to send money, quickly, easily and anonymously to content creators. That's not far off from what he's been evangelizing for decades, so I see no significance in his mentioning it at any particular time in 2009.

Those look pretty nice. Good job.

Phinnaeus Gage: He's much less crazy than Bitrebel.

I just got startled by one of those, too, until I looked at the dates of the transactions. I agree that a different message subject would be nice.

Did you steal my pronouns, too?
Yeah, sorry about that. I must have been playing too much Grand Theft Auto lately. |

This topic needs more eyes. If memory serves me correctly, back then (prior to June 13, 2011) bitcoin.org linked to this forum on its homepage. So I ask again, how is it that a well seasoned reporter didn't read this forum, therefore not knowing about mybitcoin.com or Bruce Wagner? When I first starting reading this forum, I knew about both and I'm not a reporter. Incompetence and/or bias? |

Is it possible for a well seasoned reporter to NOT: Know who Bruce Wagner is; Know about mybitcoin.com; Read this forum; etc.--all prior to June 13, 2011 (20K+ joined after this person became a member), yet was crafting a Bitcoin story?
Sure. Well-seasoned reporters spew inaccurate garbage about subjects they know nothing about all the time. Sometimes they even decide what they want their story to say before they begin doing research for it. Many reporters have both journalistic integrity and competence, but there are enough of them who lack one or both that you can't take it for granted that any particular reporter knows what they are talking about. |

No, its a classic admission of intellectual abandon.
No, it's actually an indication that many of us believe that you are either trolling us, or that you are off your rocker. In either case, we don't feel motivated to actually read your wall-of-text manifesto, let alone take any of this Freemason conspiracy stuff seriously. |

If someone is threatening you.... you know your doing something right That, or they're just trolling a gullible paranoid conspiracy theorist. |

In the meantime, please re-read the entire post.
Uh... no? |

I wouldn't take the Freemasons too lightly. After all, their secret leader is none other than Dr. Gene Ray! Their simultaneous four corners trump a two-sided coin any day.
