I meant when the major account holders were given two weeks to get their money safely out of Cypress banks before the money from the slave classes was outright stolen.
...

Ahh, funny, because Danny Brewster didn't give any warning at all.
BTW, remind me how many euro had to be in the slave's account to start losing money?  Was it 100,000.00 (one hundred thousand) Euro?

Those god-damned oil furnaces are STILL legal in NYC?! Cheesy You may's well just get a barbecue oven, go collect as much plastic trash as you can find, and light it on fire in your house. You could pay off the mining hardware (mining revenues excluded) within a couple years if you switched from oil to electric mining. Mind successfully fucked, though.

No wonder you stay poor and bitch about taxes, my children.  You sodomites heat your houses by buying thousands of dollars' worth of ASIC gear!  Why don't you just get a little potbelly stove & burn money in it?  That works about as well Cheesy

Stay toasty, heathen!

Friend, I have taken time out of my busy schedule to author a full report on the economic costs of heating your house with oil vs. electricity, and have spent further time summarizing my team's findings in the most accessible way possible:



Heeeyyy, you mastered MS Paint!  Nice!
Now where the geniuses who heat with racks of turbojets ASICs be at?

That CaVirtex thing, didn't they screw over some "investors" on this forum a while back?  Or am I mixing them up with something else?

That... Cheesy That's so inane it borders on brilliance.  What in the world made you say that? Cheesy  

1. Bob made a coin that didn't work well.
2. ? ? ?
3. Therefore, all coins made consequently aren't going to work well either.

I have long been suspicious of btce and yet, in my experience, they have always acted in a trustworthy manner.

I like the fact that every time I log in, I get a confirmation email, so that IF I were ever to get an email when I didn't log in it would signal me that my account is no longer secure. Also, all withdrawals from my account also require email confirmation...

TL;DR: You don't know who runs the exchange you use, where it is located, where it is registered, or whether it is registered at all.
But you get a good feel from them, because you get emails.
That's certainly going to end well.

Very transparency.  Much protocol.  Wow.

Either put forth an argument that the current system is not corrupt, or purpose a superior alternative.
...

Your paranoid delusions aside, there has been nothing honest or transparent about Bitcoin from the moment when people realized that it was Beanie Babies 2.0, with the associated get-rich-quick faithful ready for exploitation.

Take this forum:  The Securities sub, the "industrial" side of Bitcoin, is solid, wall-to-wall scam.  Lending section:  No one ever pays back, Pirate, Goat, Ukyo loan, Graet loan, 'nuf said.  The "scam accusations" sub is probably the most read sub here Cheesy

Thanks NLC for response, but you did not offer superior alternative or evidence that current system is not corrupt.

There are many scams, I agree. But the bitcoin protocol has been open and honest since it's inception, and all participants are voluntary.

Come on dude, I know you can do better than that.

Never said the current system is free of corruption.  My point is Bitcoin makes it look virginal by comparison--and the protocol has nothing to do with it.
Or do you think Banks and Bitcoin use different kinds of math?

in case you missed it:
Edit @shmadz re. "Bitcoin = transparency":
BTC-e, could you tell me where it is located & who runs it, in case they decide to transparently take off with my coin?

On a more positive note, the highs are lower also.

Take this forum:
The Securities sub, the "industrial" side of Bitcoin, is solid, wall-to-wall scam.  If something on offer is actually going up in price/paying divs, it's a sure sign that the issuer is about to run with your coin.

Well.. the price stays stable at $300 - $330, nothing seems to be driving down the price of bitcoins recently. Maybe all the bears have left and all thats left is the people who either "bought at the bottom" or are invested longterm

How many BTC are mined per day again?  I keep forgetting Sad

Enjoy shorting on your unregulated exchange while you can. You will soon be forced to be a licensed broker to do so.

I don't understand this logic. If Bitcoin drops to a buck doesn't that mean the total possible market cap is like 21million? What good would it be then??

I think he means that "Bitcoin the blockchain technology" will be no less functional, which is partially true.  The part overlooked part is that miners will shut down, as they say around here, "en masse," since they are already on the verge of unprofitability.  This will cause a cascade of bad stuff to happen.  Imagine difficulty plummeting wile factory farms that drove the hashrate sit idle, waiting for the flick of a switch?  Yeah, 51% nothing, try 99% attack Cheesy
And, of course, there's the confidence thing.

TL;DR: Survival of Bitcoin technology != survival of Bitcoin the coin, the implementation of the blockchain starting with satoshi's genesis block.

http://www.businessinsider.com/warren-buffett-money-tips-for-2015-2014-12

[ Warren Buffett: ]  “Stay away from it. It’s a mirage, basically. … It’s a method of transmitting money. It’s a very effective way of transmitting money and you can do it anonymously and all that. A check is a way of transmitting money, too. Are checks worth a whole lot of money just because they can transmit money? Are money orders? You can transmit money by money orders. People do it. I hope Bitcoin becomes a better way of doing it, but you can replicate it a bunch of different ways and it will be. The idea that it has some huge intrinsic value is just a joke in my view.”

I don't know how Warren can identify one of the many reason bitcoin has value in the banking industry particularly and think it has no value loooool

Perhaps because he figured out one key fact (in purple) right away, that bitcoiners have closed their minds to?

LoL thanks Jorge for pointing out the option of alts to us. You and Warren must be on some similar wavelength of dinosaur, hope you don't end up extinct.

I wouldn't mind being a dinosaur with his all his dollars to spend before going extinct.  But, alas, ...

Yeah, he's done pretty well for a dinosaur, financially...

As your Beneficent Reptilian Overlords, we'd like to take this moment to point out that

This xmas I didn't give any actual presents.

What I did give them was a three hour presentation on crypto...

Just giving them nothing wasn't cruel enough, you actually sat them down for a 3-hour lecture on why they got nothing?



Bro, even I wouldn't do that, that's just low.

Bro, over the past year the dollar has lost less buying power than BTC has over the past 24hrs.  Learn life.
2338  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin value? on: December 25, 2014, 05:57:46 PM

That's why you are poor:  The USD value has at least doubled rel. BTC over the past year.  Learn to make better calls.  Get good, bro Undecided

No.  That kind of language specifies nothing other than that that kind of language was used.  If a shell company was registered in Cyprus, the name of that shell/shelf would be available on the website, as is the case with Havelock's Panamanian shelf.  Even a shell offers leads to investigators, hence no shell.
Stop believing everything you read on the interwebs.

There is no reason to pull the "Cyprus" name out of a hat when writing the terms and conditions. These things are written by lawyers and essentially mean "if you are going to sue us, you'd have to find a law in this particular jurisdiction that we have broken, because we legally reside (i.e., have headquarters or are registered) there".

Lol, "no reason to pull the "Cyprus" name out of a hat"?  It convinced you, did the job, so why not?
As far as "if you are going to sue us" goes, you need to know who "us" is before you can sue, and you don't Smiley

Re. "we aren't Russian citizens":  So they're not Russian citizens & purportedly registered in Cyprus...  What makes the exchange Russian again?

That being said, explain me why a private police would not work and make the debate progress.

Private police exists--see shopping mall cops, etc.  Also learn about the Pinkertons, here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinkerton_(detective_agency)
If you mean getting rid of publicly funded police, then what you're essentially asking for is placing the power of enforcement in the hands of the moneyed elite.

If, OTOH, you're asking about the actual mechanics of why private police would not happen, the answer is simple:  The real police would own the lunatics & throw them in jail.

Hope this helps.
*I still suggest studying Go, Dog, Go! in greater detail, and getting up to speed before typing on the interwebs Smiley

Edit re. "Come on give me some statist author, books, video that made you vibrate and want to pay your taxes":
I don't "vibrate" about paying taxes any more than I vibrate about going to the dentist or wiping my ass after taking a dump--I don't get excited about these things, frankly don't even enjoy them, but shit got to be done (no pun intended).
