What does this mean - "all centralized companies  with one single entity are dangerous as hell" - this doesn't make sense? All centralized companies, by definition, are single entities...otherwise they'd be a decentralized company.

Further, this has nothing to do with the propensity for data breaches...seriously.

With that said, the use of bitcoin does take some of that information out of transactions but a company like T-Mobile will still need the names and numbers and addresses of their customers and can track the bitcoin addresses used by those people to pay their bill.

Me too!


How can you tell that it's flimsy by looking at a picture on a computer? You can't.

Seems like a great wallet, how long does the internal electronics last? The last thing I'd want to do is use it as a vault, put it away for ten years and come back to a blank screen...then I'd be f*cked!

The  best way to keep your published results useful to bitcoiners is to post them with your thesis on this Forum. Please commit to us in this request. We spend our time and thoughts giving you your research. We do not ask for payment in return. We do ask for the results of the study to be shared with us so we can be educated by our collective responses.

Very, very few people that come here asking for survey responses post their results. Do better than others before you. Thanks.

Here's some more detail on the validity of this organization and their cause to help Syrian people.

88.8% of each pound (or Dollar) goes directly to the Syrian people...that's a pretty high portion!

From the website: "The UK website CharityChoice reports our donation breakdown. It shows for every £1 donated, 88.8p goes directly to our beneficiaries. 0.4p is spent on admin and 10.8p is spent on raising more funds. For every £1 that we spend on fundraising, £9.53 is raised."

Bojan, great question. The first thing you should do is hunt for information on this forum. If it's ever talked about on a thread you can bet (serious money) that there's more detail on the topic on this forum somewhere. Use the search function and type in "Signature" and see what comes up. Also, consider looking at other boards such as "Services"  or "Services Discussion" since selling your signature space would be considered a service.

Good luck to you.

Keep those posts constructive!

There's no way that cash could be banned without the public knowing it. Negative interest rates don't benefit the government or banks so there would be no incentive to support negative interest rates for the long term. It's an option of last resort for temporary relief and it can't be implemented in all aspects. First, banks can't get away with charging to keep assets with them (I realize you know this since you make the point about hoarding cash). Second, the effort wouldn't force people to borrow money they don't need to borrow. Third, it would reinforce more investment in stocks, etc., which wouldn't help the economy.

Negative interest rates is a short term solution to help get through a tough spot, that's it.

Godspeed.

What's inequal is the way this poll is written.'

You either agree with the OP's contention that wealth inequality is wrong. Or you don't know anything. Or you need to "Get The Fuck Out". Really fair, eh? Don't be an idiot!

If you had a Million Euro and I didn't, would you give me (a stranger) half just to be fair, fuck no you wouldn't! So don't act like you're against it!

If you want real results you should provide poll options that don't lead to bias answers, here...I'll show you how to do it. Pay close attention now, I don't want to do it twice and you NEED the education!

This isn't completely accurate - you can mine and MAKE money, it just takes a lot of money to get started and a lot of time. It's the same has trying to pan for gold on your own and make a living at it...it just isn't worth it anymore. You can find gold but not a lot. And it's that low ROI that keeps people from doing with with their PCs. Instead they use mining machines, specifically configured to conduct the processing needed to complete the algorithms.


No shit, it's like these people don't bother to read anything on the forum to learn before they ask questions. But I guess their questions are our personal gain...

If you don't have the email address I doubt they'll let you change the password (and therefore obtain access) based just on your word.

So you sold it to a friend and they sold it to someone else? Sounds like it isn't yours anymore anyway! If it's still in possession of your friend, why not ask them?


The OP never said the account was hacked!

How is this bitcoin being used to help Syrian people? With so many people fleeing to European countries, would it not be better to give money to the support organizations in these countries?

What percentage of each Bitcoin donated actually goes to the Syrian people in need?

Ha, you want to cheat and spend money you've already spent? What an ass! Why do you want to be a cheat? A fraud?

Hey Mitchell, who said that Playtodos is stopping their campaign?

Thanks.

Hey, instead of trying to set up multiple signature campaigns, why don't you switch to one that pays you more than YoBit (the lowest paying campaign on this forum)?

Elianite, CONGRATULATIONS!

Very excited to see you've filled your 25 book quota and are not expanding beyond...what great success! Clearly there's good demand for these books, I can't wait to see it!

How much does local bitcoins charge for escrow?

I'll be in and will ONLY release escrow after having received item. It's way too easy for you to forge an order verification and what stops you from canceling the order after you've received the funds? Are you trying to take advantage of the time arbitrage between placed order and how fast you'll receive payment from escrow vs. the days it takes to put an order in the mail?

This is such bullshit, like the story of the guy that "bought pizza with bitcoin."

Giving you bitcoin so you can buys something from Amazon with cash is not buying something from Amazon with bitcoin.

I need to buy some things from Amazon, I'd go through you, but you have to pay and deliver the goods first - then I'll send payment and whatever fair fee you're charging.

Cheers.

Ok, maybe my suggestions were silly. But after you've hidden it it may be easy to forget where it was hidden. I suggest posting on this thread where it was hidden so you have a record of it incase you ever forget!

Here's two great places to hide something:

This watch I got here was first                                                                                                                                                                   purchased by your great-granddaddy
                         It was bought during the First World
                         War in a little general store in
                         Knoxville, Tennessee. It was bought
                         by private Doughboy Ernie Coolidge
                         the day he set sail for Paris. It
                         was your great-granddaddy's war watch,
                         made by the first company to ever
                         make wrist watches. You see, up until
                         then, people just carried pocket
                         watches. Your great-granddaddy wore
                         that watch every day he was in the
                         war. Then when he had done his duty,
                         he went home to your great-
                         grandmother, took the watch off his
                         wrist and put it in an ol' coffee
                         can. And in that can it stayed 'til
                         your grandfather Dane Coolidge was
                         called upon by his country to go
                         overseas and fight the Germans once
                         again. This time they called it World
                         War Two. Your great-granddaddy gave
                         it to your granddad for good luck.  
                         Unfortunately, Dane's luck wasn't as
                         good as his old man's. Your granddad
                         was a Marine and he was killed with
                         all the other Marines at the battle
                         of Wake Island. Your granddad was
                         facing death and he knew it. None of
                         those boys had any illusions about
                         ever leavin' that island alive. So
                         three days before the Japanese took
                         the island, your 22-year old
                         grandfather asked a gunner on an Air
                         Force transport named Winocki, a man
                         he had never met before in his life,
                         to deliver to his infant son, who he
                         had never seen in the flesh, his
                         gold watch. Three days later, your
                         grandfather was dead. But Winocki
                         kept his word. After the war was
                         over, he paid a visit to your
                         grandmother, delivering to your infant
                         father, his Dad's gold watch. This
                         watch. This watch was on your Daddy's
                         wrist when he was shot down over
                         Hanoi. He was captured and put in a
                         Vietnamese prison camp. Now he knew
                         if the gooks ever saw the watch it'd
                         be confiscated. The way your Daddy
                         looked at it, that watch was your
                         birthright. And he'd be damned if
                         and slopeheads were gonna put their
                         greasy yella hands on his boy's
                         birthright. So he hid it in the one
                         place he knew he could hide somethin'.
                         His ass. Five long years, he wore
                         this watch up his ass. Then when he
                         died of dysentery, he gave me the
                         watch. I hid with uncomfortable hunk
                         of metal up my ass for two years.
                         Then, after seven years, I was sent
                         home to my family. And now, little
                         man, I give the watch to you.
