Are you going to be able to offer customers an account that can accept ACH deposits?

A lot of people are looking at what happened to the price last year and are kicking themselves for not buying at the bottom. I expect any dips to be short-lived because any significant downturn will cause more people to buy.

Does anyone actually have XRP to bid with?

So you in fact are shifting between parallel realities with your intent although the immediate effect isn't as big as you might expect. That comes with training.  How do you know? Maybe this is an alternate reality in which parallel realities don't exist? Or does it just work that only the truth statements you agree with are objectively true? |

There is no objective proof that the person who attempted to stop the bus with the power of his mind and the person who got splattered on the pavement is the same "observer" (even though we perceive them both as the same human body). So maybe he actually succeeded and is alive somewhere, but we forked into a possible universe and observed a version of that experiment where he failed because this is what our beliefs suggest should happen.
So the real experiment turns from "can this ever happen?" to "can somebody change my beliefs so that I can observe it?" and it is more up to you than the person conducting the experiment. What we see is only there for us to see. So nothing can be objectively determined either true or false because for every event there may or may not be an alternate universe somewhere in which something else happened. In other words, unfalsifiable sophistry. |

Have you audited your bank's transactions to be sure they aren't involved with drug cartels and terrorists?
There's a really nasty terrorist organization headquartered on the Potomac River, and I think my bank may be involved with them. What should I do? |

But if you're educated in the matter, please inform me what the ideal economic circumstance is. The ideal economic circumstance is the one that all participants freely choose; the circumstance that exists when coercion is removed. |

This doesn't mean that everyone saves and no one spends, but it does mean that the balance of saving/spending will be tilted in favor of more saving and less spending, meaning it is not economically optimal. Who gets to define "optimal"? |

Does anyone have any experience using Armory together with the 0.8rc1 version of the Satoshi client. I would like to try out the new client, mainly in the hope that the usual "wait for the Satoshi client to catch up" ritual can be shortened. But I don't really want all my funds to be inaccessible until I find a way to migrate backwards.  The newest Armory is working for me with a version of the Satoshi client that includes the new block format. |

He designed that "V for voluntary" symbol, but it's widely used by other ancaps. I had no idea the same guy from that video is the one who designed the symbol. I picked it for my forum avatar because I'd seen it in a lot of places and liked the design, but now that I know, I feel like it's even more appropriate to use it here. This guy is like the apocryphal aerodynamics engineer who patiently explains why it's impossible for a bumblebee to fly. |

The amazing coincidences just keep piling up, don't they? Mega is announced with great fanfare, then just as the the first set of affiliates start to get their PayPal accounts frozen all of a sudden a new bitcoin payment processor nobody's ever heard of before opens for business and partners with a new voucher affiliate just in time.

I know Butterfly Labs is sending their mining rig out soon-how drastically will that affect the supply of bitcoins? Also, is it true that there are about 6 million in circulation and 21 to ever be in circulation? How did you end up with over 400 posts here without learning what you'd need to know in order to answer those questions yourself? |

Such nonsense.. Don't waste your clicks.
You didn't listen to the entire video all the way to the end, did you? |

One word: Simulation argument. One thing that later generations might do with their super-powerful computers is run detailed simulations of their forebears or of people like their forebears. Because their computers would be so powerful, they could run a great many such simulations. Suppose that these simulated people are conscious (as they would be if the simulations were sufficiently fine-grained and if a certain quite widely accepted position in the philosophy of mind is correct). Then it could be the case that the vast majority of minds like ours do not belong to the original race but rather to people simulated by the advanced descendants of an original race. It is then possible to argue that, if this were the case, we would be rational to think that we are likely among the simulated minds rather than among the original biological ones. Therefore, if we don’t think that we are currently living in a computer simulation, we are not entitled to believe that we will have descendants who will run lots of such simulations of their forebears.
---Nick Bostrom, Faculty of Philosophy, Oxford University We know that the most efficient possible computer could not count to 2^256 even if it could use 100% of the sun's output with perfect efficiency. Has anyone ever calculated how much energy would be needed to simulate a universe to see if it's even remotely credible? |

Wow ... he waited until after the hoopla had died down to release the torpedos ... this is significant.
What an amazing coincidence. It looks like a new bitcoin payment processor just started up in New Zealand: https://zipbit.co/about-us |
