There should be a "never" vote.

Every interaction with the Federal gov't is in fact voluntary.  You don't want the Federal Gov't ... then opt out. Fill out an SSA-521, notarized a declaration of status, stop accepting their benefits. Do not cross the minimum sufficient contacts threshold and do all transactions with them at arms length.


Many people will never do this.

Anyone that can't successfully launder bitcoins has a seriously lack of imagination.

It's already hard enough to prove who was using any particular computer at any particular time without an eyewitness or confession.

Bitcoin value follows this formula

Silkroad * crack / days till weekend = BTC price

Just for the record, I'm discussing this publicly for the purposes of demonstrating the PTB can't stop us! They can only hope to contain us!

We really shouldn't have to depend on exchanges exclusively. The community should start developing it's own localized network like western union.

The time delay and fees the banks are imposing is an unnecessary expense

I'll part with 10 BTC for 1 1/2 % over spot price we we meet up. I guessing it will be roughly $110 US cash. no checks or money orders Wink

I'm in Cambridge close to the Galleria Mall if you want to meet at my home.

If you  want to wait till tomorrow I can meet anywhere with public transportation.

Indio,

Would definitely like to make an exchange. Get back to me! Smiley

I'm around most of the time.



Your not really helping me decide if I want to sell them...... How many do you want?Huh

Lie I said I'm willing to part with some for less than the price I was waiting for .

Increasing the size of the user base is in all of our long term interests.

So again ... How many you need? 5? 10? 15? more?

Bank of New York Mellon is charging to deposit money in an account.....

T-Bill's are paying ZERO interest....

Mutual Funds have the lowest cash on hand since .... ever....



Yesterday's Bitcoin panic was a blip compared to what is happening in other markets....


Viva la Bitcoin!

Now this is a hell of a coincidence.... I'm in cambridge. I'm wasn't going to really sell at this current price. Since you are a newbie and I want to be a good ambassador of bitcoins I will consider it . How many do you need?

Profit taking + panic = selloff

 There is a very large bot or human messing with us.  

I'm gld more people are starting to figure that out. A whole bunch of people got gamed yesterday.
376  Economy / Speculation / Re: Lesson learned. on: August 04, 2011, 06:42:10 PM
Even with the difficulty increase I can see anyone making less than 5% real world. I used high end assumptions for initial cost and power consumption. The electricity price was more the median price. Even then if the price of BTC drops to $1 you will make .5% YoY. Which is better than a zero-interest checking account.
377  Economy / Speculation / Re: Lesson learned. on: August 04, 2011, 06:01:46 PM
Even making these outrageous assumption the annual return on investment is 20%. If you no where to get a 20% interest rate on a $1000 deposit please tell us.

You naysayers are foolish. This ain't no  zero sum game. You have to compare mining to all other forms of increase. Obviously at $10 per BTC it's still an order of magnitude over a deposit account.

God damn it THERE ARE NO CITIZENS YOU BRAINWASHED FUCKS!

The gov't proudly claims that it has no duty to protect. http://www.nytimes.com/2005/06/28/politics/28scotus.html

That is the obligation of the sovereign. The US disclaims it expressly. You have no recourse for the governments flat out refusal to protect you.

There is no state , there are no citizens. It's a relic from feudal times reinstated in a new and devious form to enslave us.

Quote
1. (a) Ligeance is a true and faithful obedience of the subject due to his Sovereign. - This ligeance and obedience is an incident inseparable to every subject: for as soon as he is born he oweth by birth-right ligeance and obedience to his Sovereign. Ligeantia est vinculum fidei; and ligeantia est quasi legis essentia. Ligeaalia est ligarnentum, quasi ligatio mentium: quia sicut ligamentum est connexio articulorum et juncturarum, &c. As the ligatures or strings do knit together the joints of all the parts of the body, so doth ligeance join together the Sovereign and all his subjects, quasi uno ligamine. Glanville, who wrote in the reign of H. 2. lib. 9. cap. 4. speaking of the connexion which ought to be between the lord and tenant that holdeth by hone saith, that mutua debet esse domini et fide litatis connexion ita quod quantum debet omino ex homagio, tantum illi debet dominus ex dominio, pręter solam reverentiam, and the lord, (saith he) ought to defend his tenant. But between the Sovereign and the subject there is without comparison a higher and greater connexion: for as the subject oweth to the King his true and faithful ligeance and obedience, so the Sovereign is to govern and protect his subjects, [7-Coke-5 a] regere et firotegere subditos: so as between the Sovereign and subject there is duplex et reciprocum ligamen; quia sicut subditus regi tenetur ad obedientiam, ita rex subdito tenetur ad protectionem: merito igitur ligeantia dicitur a ligando, quia continet in se duplex ligamen. And therefore it is holden in 20 H. 7. 8. a. that there is a liege or ligeance between the King and the subject. And Fortescue, cap. 13. Rex (b) ad tutelam legis corporum et bonorum subditorum erectus est. And in the Acts of Parliament of IO R. 2. cap. 5. and 11 R. 2. cap. 1. 14 H. 8. cap. 2. &c. subjects are called liege people; and in the Acts of Parliament in 34 H. 8. cap. 1. and 35 H. 8. cap. 3. &c. the King is called the liege lord of his subjects. And with this agreeth M. Skeene in his book De Expositione Verborum, (which book was cited by one of the Judges which argued against the plaintiff) ligeance is the mutual bond and obligation between the King and his subjects, whereby subjects are called his liege subjects, because they are bound to obey and serve him; and he is called their liege lord, because he should maintain and defend them.

No losses so far. Even despite the MTGOX email release of my password hashes. We are all responsible for our own security. Strong passwords are the rule of the day. Avoid any single point of failure.
