Hello ! How about this :  I like Ⓑ a lot, but I thought it could be great to add the "currency-like" bars. It makes it closer to the logo, too. I think a circled ฿ would be perfect. Maybe we could adopt the circled B for now while we wait for the new circled ฿ to be inserted into the Unicode standard. |

Dont believe it is in use by another currency and is already in the charset  x2 I really like Ƀ too. ฿ would be my first choice, but since it's already used as a currency symbol for me it's completely off the table. It also gives a certain sense of a currency and I really prefer capital letters. I don't know, but I think uppercases give the impression of a more valued currency. 1Ƀ2 Ƀ100 Ƀ1.5 19.99Ƀ All of these look good to me |

This is like talking to a brick wall.
Look. If you convince the owner of the forum to ban all talk of free trade. The people who are on the same wavelength as me, will respect that we're unwelome guests on someone elses property. We will leave with no fuss.
What happens then? We start another forum and continue to advocate free trade and voluntary interaction in full view of the public. You're not going to stop people talking about all the wonderful possibilities the technology affords by encouraging a divide.
So .. Why can't we just reason things out ourselves? If you've got a problem with someones business practices, don't deal with them. If you've got good enough reasons not to deal with them, share those reasons with us. You might convince us that you're right.
Resorting to the word "illegal" doesn't work with people like me who reason from first principles. We've grown up and that mumbo jumbo just doesn't fly.
All he is proposing (and I don't know if I agree or not) is to ban some specific illegal things from the forum, but only because this forum is the official face of bitcoin to the world and they're arguing that some practices would be better be hidden. Sounds reasonable to me. To the main public there is a huge difference between finding topics about drug sales in the official forum and finding them in alternative websites. In one case it sounds like a deviation from a purpose, in the other it looks like an official endorsement to a criminal practice. |

io ho un progetto ancora non avviato |

Bear in mind the US Govt invented both the internet (more anonymous/decentralized than AOL/Compuserve), and Tor. Governments are big and are full of people with differing priorities.
If most BitCoin usage is legal I think it'll be OK in the long run. This is why I wish we'd kick the people selling serial keys and the Silk Road guys out of the forum. Of course they can still do what they're doing, but there's no need to advertise them in the main forum.
Illegal where? Should we only do things that happen to be considered "legal" by all governments? How about we just mind our own business? If someone's doing something that you personally consider to be wrong, get on your soap box and use logic reason and evidence to show why it's wrong. Don't try and alienate people who are trying to get on in the world, by referencing some written dos and donts you can't objectively explain. They'll outlaw it, but it's got to be a problem for them to worry about first. First they ignore you Then they fight you... We're still in the part of the "ignore you" phase. Let's get BTC more popular together. That's what I think too |

Olá Pessoal,
Acabei de conhecer o bitcoin e estive procurando por algum brasileiro aqui. Bem, não encontrei... mas sei que deve ter brasileiros ou portugueses...
Meu inglês não é dos melhores mas consegui entender como funciona procurando em sites em português.
É isso, ainda não tenho créditos de bitcoins mas espero encontrar brasileiros aqui para poder fazer algum negócio e adquirir alguns.
Será que tem alguém?
Abraços e boas festas!
Também sou novo, mas dei uma boa lida no wiki dos caras. O BitCoin é como Paypal: você converte dinheiro (dolar, euros, reais, etc...) para BitCoins (que é uma moeda virtual) e faz as transações e compras que quiser na net ou com qualquer um que aceite a moeda. A qualquer momento você pode converter seu saldo em dinheiro denovo (via paypal, cartão de crédito, ou para alguém que queira comprar). Basicamente é como troca de câmbio em qualquer moeda: ou você troca num cambista (no caso sites como os listados em https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Selling_bitcoins ) ou você troca diretamente com alguém que você conhece que tenha a moeda que você quer. A grande diferença para o Paypal é que o BitCoin não tem um servidor centralizado, ao invés disso os processamentos necessários são divididos por milhares de computadores (a segurança é feita por um algoritmo matemático muito bem implementado). |

7) How long until bitcoin usage summons the evil lord Kthulu?
But seriously... Don't you guys wonder what would happen when or if bitcoin gets in the same path bittorrents did?

But if you live in one of these nations and you benefit from the tax-payed services provided by the greedy government (even if they are crappy), it's not right just refusing to pay your share saying everything is unconstitutional or a crime. What if you don't benefit? What if it is always a net loss in your dealings with the state? You are only ever paying into the system and getting screwed by big guys and never getting anything tangible out of it except contributing to a net harming of humanity? What are your options then? If you don't pay they put you in jail, is that not a threat of violence? What if it really is a crime what they are doing? What is 'right' at that point? I really don't know. In anyway I look at these questions I get to the same question: what could you do when the main public just doesn't care enough? I have no answer. |

I'm just starting to enter into this BitCoin world and I have 2 main questions:
1) How long until goverments start persecuting bitcoin users?
2) What will happen when they do?
It's not a matter of if governments have the right to do so. Ofcourse they theoreticaly don't (or shouldn't have).
But US government also didn't have the right to press other countries to outlaw bittorrent, but look at what happened in Sweden, Canada, Spain in just the last 2 years.
If the corporations that own copyrights of movies and musics are being able to protect theyr profits by changing laws and bending governments, courts and police force, imagine what the banks can do!
Of course to reach that point the community should have grown incredibly larger, but to all of us who believe in the future of virtual currencies this is a point to be considered.
Would then bitcoin be banned to underground usage hence every single coin would become black money?

Besides, most people in Common Law Rule nations are to stupid (brain washed) to know or WANT to know that paying tax is a CRIME by constitutional rule (ie: common law rule). Every person has the right, not privilege, but RIGHT to earn a living (ie: business) without interference from the Government.
That's the kind of exaggeration that the author of this topic was referring to! I agree that governments all over the world are incredibly oversized. But if you live in one of these nations and you benefit from the tax-payed services provided by the greedy government (even if they are crappy), it's not right just refusing to pay your share saying everything is unconstitutional or a crime. |
