Sport sucks anyway.

It's fun when you're a kid, but once you're grown up, it's just silly.
2222  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: your faith in bitcoin on: April 03, 2011, 01:38:22 PM
Don't worry.  Even if everyone hoards bitcoin, at some point they will have a strong incentive to sell them.  And there will be some kind of a competition that will take place.  The less greedy will sell first.   There would be no point in hoarding for ever, unless you want to give your bitcoins to your children after you're dead.


I own a few thousands bitcoins.  I can tell you that if one bitcoin was worth 1,000 euros, I would sell mines for sure, so that I can buy a house or something.   Some people would be less greedy and would sell their bitcoins at 500 EUR/BTC, and some other even less greedy.   When people start selling, they stabilize or even lower the price of bitoin, thus adjusting it to its true value.

I do actually sell bitcoins on regular basis, because I think there are better investments than cash anyway, and because I need national currencies to eat and pay my rent.

But I totally think there is no problem with hoarding whatsoever.

On the other end, indian people are the only people in the world who are so obssessed with this weird, awfully complicated game.

écoute en fait je peux pas venir. On redéfinira un rdv. Toutes mes excuses

Zut j'ai vu ce message trop tard.  Du coup je me suis déplacé pour rien :/

Bon c'est comme tu veux, on décide une autre date, tu me donnes un adresse bitcoin pour que je te rembourse, ou tu me communiques tes coordonnées bancaires pour que je te vire les 60 euros.

If A has some weakness that might compel him to accept an unfair deal (lack of access to a market, an addiction, hunger, sickness, a lack of access to the means of production, blackmail etc.) and B takes advantage of that weakness, we have capitalism, and subtle theft, in the second case.

[... skiping other bullshit ...]

Capitalists depend on domination to profit. As such, states will exist in any capitalist society.

omg

ok c'est fait

Tu préfères le matin ou l'après-midi?
2227  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC/Fiat Exchange Rates on: April 02, 2011, 12:16:15 PM
That's the point tho isn't it.  You trade BTC against EUR .. and what to you do .. you do with the USD value THEN convert TO EUR ..

you don't put BTC against EUR .. you put EUR against USD THEN convert to BTC  instead of trading directly BTC against EUR at its desired market value.

Not exactly.  It's not that simple.  I make some kind of a mix.
2228  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Allow me to start dabbling with Bitcoins! on: April 02, 2011, 10:58:37 AM
People openly begging for bitcoins are actually quite rare on this forum.

I am surprised one of them is someone who introduces himself as someone with a "finance background".  Don't you have any money to buy bitcoins, instead of just begging for some?
2229  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ron Paul and bitcoins on: April 02, 2011, 10:49:19 AM
He may not have broken any promises yet. I just think he will. And if he does, I think it'll be better for society than if he keeps his promises. Because faith in the idea that we can pick other people to do all our thinking for us will start to erode.

Good point.

Thanks for having thought of that for me Wink

You're young, keep some hair while you still have some, really.

I am 33 and I lost most of my hair (pretty much like Molyneaux).  When I was younger I thought it would not bother me, but now I can tell you it does a bit.

Je te communique l'endroit et l'horaire pour le rdv dès que j'accuse réception des 100 BTC
2232  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC/Fiat Exchange Rates on: April 01, 2011, 06:55:28 PM

There are more or less independant exchanges in each national currency.

For instance, when I trade bitcoins off the counter against euros, I look at the rate of bitcoins in USD but I don't really look at the EUR/USD rate.  I just make myself a grosso-modo value and give my price.  So I'm pretty sure there ARE arbitrage opportunities for motivated people.
2233  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Ron Paul and bitcoins on: April 01, 2011, 06:39:33 PM

Amongst important US politics, I think Ron Paul is the more likely to ever introduce bitcoin in mainstream media.

I'm curious to have your view on this.
2234  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I am in negotiations with presidential candidate Ron Paul... on: April 01, 2011, 06:35:35 PM
This gives me an idea for a poll

2235  Local / Petites annonces / Re: Vente de bitcoins dans un parc à Paris on: April 01, 2011, 06:29:04 PM
yop

perso j'en vend sur paris pour 0.66 euros le bitcoin, j'en ai 100.

Je te propose de t'en acheter pour 50 euros, mais à 0.6 euros le bitcoin.

PS.  Ou, pour simplifier le calcul, 60 euros pour tes 100 bitcoins.
2236  Other / Off-topic / Re: Operating system on: April 01, 2011, 06:13:41 PM
I up this poll as newbies might be interested in voting.
