The very first thing people do when they join Bitcoin is to try the satoshi client.

Can show some evidence to support this statement?

I CAN PREDICT THE FUTURE

No you can't.

And you can huh?
2083  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can we still advertise the Satoshi Client for noobs? on: May 28, 2012, 05:34:30 PM
I only suggest eWallets to noobs.

Which ewallet do you suggest?


I use and like blockchain the most so that's what I recommend.

Fallacy redefined as meaning "wrong in my opinion, but eventually will be proven one way or the other"

No, not wrong in my opinion. Wrong according empirical historical evidence which shown to you causes your mind to experience too much cognitive dissonance in order to be able to accept it hence why I wont even bother listing it. I have ZERO doubt Bitcoin will prove me(us) right.
2085  Economy / Economics / Re: Am I misunderstanding this or? on: May 28, 2012, 05:20:14 PM
You still don't get it do you? I DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING. The Bitcoin experiment will disprove your fallacies for me.  Grin

All we need is time.
2086  Economy / Economics / Re: Am I misunderstanding this or? on: May 28, 2012, 05:07:31 PM
For example just walk into any computer store you can find and ask them how much the stuff they are selling today cost a year ago and if that makes it impossible to run their business at a profit.

Sorry buddy, but you are Provably Inaccurate.

See? Only the empirical evidence of the Bitcoin experiment will shut you and your delusions up so I'm not even going to bother refuting the fallacies you list..
2087  Economy / Economics / Re: Am I misunderstanding this or? on: May 28, 2012, 04:14:28 PM
No you didn't get it unfortunately. In case your memory is that of a gold fish, not just me but most of us in this thread have already presented several indirect arguments with historical empirical evidence as perfectly valid counterarguments to your theories about Bitcoin's future which to a rational person would suffice to disprove it. The only thing we will unfortunately have to wait for about Bitcoin's future by definition is direct proof - a head on collision with reality - which with delusional people like yourself seem to be the only thing that will shut you up.

Can I get your source on historical empirical evidence used in this thread?

p.s.: You may repeat this experiment how many times you want.
2088  Economy / Economics / Re: Am I misunderstanding this or? on: May 28, 2012, 12:48:56 PM
And the Bitcoin experiment will show that it's not and that in fact it's you who is mental for continuing to use what we all showed to you were fallacies as evidence for your ridiculous theories.

Awesome right?

So let me get this straight: to prove my opinion to be based on fallacy, we have to wait for the bitcoin experiment to do something or act in a way in the future that we do not yet know will happen.
Ergo, we need to predict the future to possibly prove me wrong, and that is the best argument you've got. Got it.

I'm just telling you that deflation is fucking mental. I'm not trying to control anyone.

2091  Economy / Economics / Re: Am I misunderstanding this or? on: May 28, 2012, 11:42:56 AM
Isn't it awesome how it absolutely doesn't matter how wrong Etlase2 beliefs about economics are to how Bitcoin functions? I just can't wait till we are like 5-10years down the road when this experiment single-handedly puts to rest all these fallacious theories people who'd like to control other people always promote as the economic truth..

Oh how sweet the last laugh is going to be.  Grin

Isn't it trivial to detect and shoot down something like that?
2093  Economy / Securities / Re: [GLBSE] Kronos Floating Bond, IPO on June 15th on: May 28, 2012, 10:16:11 AM
No pitch-fork mobs without giving me a chance to respond first, please. Wink

~20% makes more sense and I kind of thought you might have written two zeros too many but man your OP is super confusing..

Can't you do a better job making it clearer what the bond is? That it is in fact just a loan to your BDK hedge fund, a loan that will finance the loan your hedge fund made to Kronos and can't you disclose the details of that loan and be a bit more transparent? I feel like calling yourself IOU and the bond Kronos.BND severely obfuscates who the bond issuer is even though you explained it but it leaves the door open for potential confusion for someone not carefully reading your OP.

What I'd like to read in your OP is this:

Who the borrower is exactly?: Kluge and INAU, or BDK, just don't call your self IOU
What are you borrowing for?: details of the loan you made and details about who you lent to
What deal exactly are you offering?: be clear about how much it will cost, how much it will pay by using a more standardized formulation(if you lend us this much, will pay you back this fast and will add this much of interest) like a loan normally is presented and be clear about how you intend to meet your obligations


Now these are just my suggestions but I'm telling you when I read the OP the first time I was very confused about what exactly I am reading and I bet I'm not the only one.
2094  Economy / Securities / Re: [GLBSE] Kronos Floating Bond, IPO on June 15th on: May 28, 2012, 01:29:11 AM
Kronos.BND Buyback Provision
When Kronos management decides to buy back shares, they will pay a flat .115BTC per bond unit.

I'm interested in buying pre-IPO. What's the price?
The minimum order is 1,500 shares. For orders with a purchase amount between 1500-7499 bonds, the price is .1125BTC/bond. For orders with an amount between 7500-15000 bonds, the price is .11BTC/bond. For orders with an amount greater than 15000 bonds, the price is .105BTC/bond.

GLBSE Contract:
"Introduction, Issuer, Bondholder, and Operator Liabilities" - 175,000 bonds ("Konos.BND") will be issued on June 15th, 2012.

..."Description, Dividends" - Kronos.BND is a floating bond, paying .000001142571% of Kronos’ bi-weekly profit per each bond every 14 days. ...

I don't get it. You want to raise around ~20k BTC (175000*~0.112 BTC) but you're willing to only pay ~0.20% dividend (175000*0.000001142571%) of your every 14day profits, well that and ~1500 BTC with a buy back? Am I missing something?

Simplicity is key, unless the person is a tech/monetary/economics/liberty enthusiast, then they're ready for more advanced discussions.

Bingo.
2096  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can we still advertise the Satoshi Client for noobs? on: May 27, 2012, 05:53:40 PM

 I have friends who are interested in bitcoin, but they're not very tech savvy.  

Just introduce them to an eWallet if it's for small amounts and personal use..
2098  Other / Politics & Society / A Way To Be Free - Robert LeFevre on: May 26, 2012, 12:54:25 PM
This excerpt is one of the best things I have read in a long while:

http://economicsandliberty.wordpress.com/a-way-to-be-free/?like=1&_wpnonce=2edf2fd66d

I wish I didn't need to pay some publisher $30 to read the whole thing but this excerpt just blew me away. It echoed thoughts precisely how I think about freedom and getting to a free society and right & wrong and good & bad and it gives me even more confirmation that my goal approach to freedom(goal: to live in a society that has the freedom to maximize it's potential) is the only way to really figure out the true requirements for reaching it and not some mythical universal rule of right or wrong i.e. morality.

 

Please give it a read and share your thoughts.

Your digital real estate.
Build your digital window.
Build with bits here.
Because there are two worlds.
Luckily you wont need bricks and cement.
2100  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [Emergency ANN] Bitcoinica site is taken offline for security investigation on: May 25, 2012, 11:22:14 PM
If there is a lesson to be learned here, it is that you can't make the world a better place in the context of a monetary system. The only wealth we have is our relationships with our fellow human beings. Any technological advancement that is outside the context of making such relationships healthier works to degrade that wealth. Zhou is making the right call in recognizing that he cannot pursue his desires to make society better while working in a sick game of token exchange.

looool Nothing like a Zeitgeister to top this thread off.  Roll Eyes
