Why should IRS are the only organization to have this kind of authority. Why cant we, the bitcoin community make our own lawsuit to fight against government.
Other law enforcement agencies have similar authority. Also the IRS does not simply take the money, they get a court order to have the court garnish money on the IRS's behalf. This is allowed as per statues. A lawsuit is not a good approach to this problem. A more efficient way in getting this ability changed would be to vote for political leaders who would be willing to get these statues (laws) changed. Not when the ones who refuse to allow economic liberty count the votes. Votes are counted in an impartial way that allows for whoever has the most votes to win an election. To say/imply that someone would not win an election despite receiving the most votes only because of their views is just crazy In a utopia, yes. In the dystopia we live in, no. |

... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=763361.0Do you know which radio station? If you don't know which radio station, was it on internet radio, satellite, or terrestrial (FM)? If it was on internet radio, can you look at your history? Satellite, your last listened to stations? FM, what metro area are you in? |

One of the next scams will be "pay us a million BTC, Satoshi, or we'll redirect one of the near-miss asteroids into planet earth".  |

I have a browncoat (duster), but I can't afford the rest of the costume. Maybe I should put the rest of the pieces on my wishlist.

This is called extortion inoculation. BS enough times and nobody will pay BTC to any extortionist.

For most everyone's benefit... Condition? Shipping to USA (including customs fees)? Who would you prefer to escrow with on this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=108716.0 list? For my benefit... Would you accept a trade of me ordering you something on Amazon.com worth the same total price? I've had an Amazon order shipped to a Bitcointalker in NL before. hello, the condition is perfect, brand new never used. i would prefer Dabs. i could pay shipping, i don't know how Custom fees work in USA so i'll have to look up that. i would prefer BTC Ok, according to my research it won't incur customs fees since it's under $200. I'd rather not pay for escrow, but I may offer up to a $40 total Amazon.com purchase in trade for the vest. Can you shoot your own pics of it (front, back, and tags with a piece of paper that says TBZ1 next to it)? You might as well ask him to use escrow, instead of asking him to do so much for 30$. 1) I can't afford to spend my BTC at a massive loss 2) A stock photo isn't enough for private party sales |

Just a matter of time before users are put under the definition and required to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to "transmit" even a single satoshi.

Hmm, it appears that the Libertarian Party doesn't consider you a member unless you pay (not just registering to vote libertarian). https://www.lp.org/membershipBut it would be awesome if they did this, why they didn't do it for Ron Paul, though, shame. |

I don't know why people think this a problem witn the exchanges. If you don't like KYC/AML laws then you need to tell this to your government, not the exchanges. They do not make the rules and they are not going to violate the law so you can keep you 0.5BTC secret.
True , but if they allow you to deposit without verification then they have to let you withdraw in a reasonable amount of time as well if the rules change. When you sign up for an account with an exchange, you will need to accept (and agree to) certain terms that the exchange provides you. One of those terms is that you will submit certain KYC/AML documents so the exchange can verify your identity (and likely that you cannot withdraw any funds until these documents are received and accepted) Did Bitstamp have those terms the instant it opened for business? Did Bitstamp have those terms the instant the OP signed up? Most websites have clauses in their TOS that they have the ability to change the terms at their pleasure. Even if the answer to your questions are 'no' then their ability change the TOS at their pleasure would make your questions moot. Also the message in the OP says that the OP was warned multiple times about this happening yet the OP still continued to keep funds at bitstamp Legally, not ethically moot. The message in the OP says "I have not been able to withdraw my funds for some time before this notice." So they changed the terms with no notice to lock up his funds. Legal, NOT ethical. |
