tl;dr very few women, especially when you count out the 80+ Female crowd.

Those nine year olds are pretty smart for their age.

Why aren't you just using an exchange? There has to be one that's better than 83 per BTC.

Maybe so, but I lack a bank account to verify with, and I don't really want to pay taxes on something my computers dug up.

Where do you store the fiat or bitcoins to buy the computers in the first place? For your very first post, this seems pretty suspicious.

Well i can't actually proove that i'm not a cop. All i can say, is that i'm not. I think you are all too stressed up with this NSA bullshit.

NSA isn't looking for drug users, as far as I know. No offense, but is this app really the smartest idea? Why would anyone want to download incriminating evidence that lists how much plants they have, how they're growing them, etc.? Seems like a great way to streamline your trial. They'll know exactly what to charge you with and how many charges you should get.

568  Economy / Lending / Re: Who is Joey and Anita? Heres their "loan" story. on: July 25, 2013, 02:02:04 PM
They are always on here asking for .05 or .5 or some small amount but will never repay it. They both have MANY accounts. You all know about Joey's identity but why do they do this? Well Joey stalks me so I feel it is only fair to share what I know about him and his mother back.

Heres a simple summary of their lives:

Let me explain who these people are...one is Joey who is flamboyently gay (sorry for spelling) and one is his 62 yr old mother Anita who will skype naked for you for a mere .5 BTC. They both advertise themselves on sealswithclubs.eu the bitcoin poker site. Once a month, the first friday I think it is of the month, they receive $2000 or so from the government. They call this day "Disability Money Day!". They rent an SUV, go to the casino, go out and also get their month supply of food. Within 3 days they are broke again. When they are broke they come here and other sites asking for "loans". They don't pay a penny back. They have been banned from two different poker sites and still find a way to play. They are pathetic and the worst attempt at scammers around. They will not pay you back simple as that. They live very sad lives.


You're a rich mother fucken son of a bitch stuck up think your shit don't stink asshole.

Your 10 unpaid pizzas will arrive soon.

Why would you do this? You're just being an ass to the delivery man and no one else.

I won an auction for half a btc that expires in 37 mins if I don't purchase it.

I have to pay 0.0683 btc to pay for the won bid

You really don't have ~6 dollars to get BTC on your own?
570  Economy / Lending / Re: Need .4 BTC loan on: July 25, 2013, 01:56:10 PM
I too am requesting a loan of .1 BTC for a return of 0.0 BTC. If anyone's interested send the funds to 1EHaED7BFBpzHCVPr3Q7K8E2YbFWbMtmZR . You will have your 0.0 BTC within 57 years. Think of how much that 0.0 BTC will be worth in 57 years! Probably $0.00, or maybe even $0.00!!! Of course, BTC could plummet to $0.00 by that point, but I doubt it.

Introductory Offer Price
0.25 BTC per Share (through April 1st, 2013)

Those shares should grow in value fast and with 0.25 btc, maybe worth to grab a few:

Whoring yourself out for BTC? Planning a visit to the Silk Road?

Yeah, I totally agree, Mr. Carries-around-paid-advertisements-in-his-signature-for-BTC. One totally shouldn't whore oneself out for BTC.


True. I thought that I had removed my signature before I posted, but I guess I didn't.

I hope you're not a cop because if so you need to work on your slang. I've never heard someone use the term "stonehead" in my life.
574  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: New here, joined to buy Bitcoins via Paypal as Virwox is acting strange on: July 24, 2013, 05:44:43 PM
VirWoX was working fine for me today, although I go through Skrill instead of PayPal. Be weary when using PayPal because it is very easy for you to get scammed. Most legitimate sellers do not trust PayPal as chargebacks are very common. The company itself also is not a fan of bitcoins, so if you are screwed you're going to have a tough time getting them to help you. My advice would be to use the Skrill/Moneybookers option if you want to keep using VirWoX.

Or, you can go on the bitcoin wiki and look at a list of reputable sites that accept various options. Just ctrl f for paypal.

575  Economy / Economics / Re: Why are fiat/banks destined to fail and bitcoin to succeed? Explain. on: July 24, 2013, 05:35:20 PM
The idiot troll arrives to talk "Economics", demanding explanations, lol.   Roll Eyes

.... day late and a dollar short? train left the station without you.

I am a troll? What argument do you have against what I said? It seems like the common argument against anyone who goes against bitcoins is that they are just trolling. And I'm not even against bitcoins. I'm buying as much as I can, and I use them to purchase things. But I also recognize bitcoin's flaws, and I think that until everyone recognizes them bitcoin will never be mainstream. I also think that the currency can't stay stable with this kind of mentality. People want bitcoins to increase in value exponentially, but this type of instability is good for no one but the few people who got in early.

The fact is, no matter what might happen, Bitcoin is nowhere near as successful as any of the supposed "failing" fiat currencies. Maybe in a 100 years it will be just as successful, but none of us are going to live that long. The bitcoin economy isn't as big as a single fiat currency. It also isn't nearly as stable. The value of a bitcoin fluctuates constantly, and prices change to reflect it. What if one day you went to the grocery store and everything was twice as expensive because the price of bitcoins plummeted? The average person will never agree to that kind of system.


It seems you aready one step ahead of us all you seem to know everything.

So now i have a question for you: why did you buy bitcoins Huh

Because I see them as a good investment- not because I believe that it will replace fiat (it won't) but because it will hopefully increase in value, at least for a short period of time. Although seeing as major exchanges are either being discontinued or getting more restrictive (at least to US customers), I'm not so sure.

I don't have anything against bitcoins. I just want to know why pretty much everyone on these forums is so sure that it will replace fiat. There have been people here that have, completely seriously, told me and others to invest everything in bitcoins. That is a very risky maneuver, but it seems as though it's one a lot of people are willing to take.

Like I said before, I also don't think that the rampant fervor for bitcoins is positive. Some people on here are almost religious when it comes to bitcoins. Why are they so great? The main arguments are decentralization and deflation. But I fail to see how bitcoins are decentralized when a small amount of people control the majority of the bitcoins (just like with fiat!). The mining pools also have considerable influence. Deflation is not always positive. Stability is much more beneficial than either inflation or deflation.

I just want to know as much as I can about the bitcoin economy before I make a serious investment. So far, I feel like idealism drives the market quite a bit as opposed to rational thought, and this is worrisome. It seems to cause instability in the market unheard of in any other currency.

I have to ask, why did Swartz want to release the articles when they're all free? I've had access to JSTOR since high school... and I still do if I could remember my login information. Plus, it's not like the articles are anything controversial or secretive.
580  Economy / Economics / Re: List of bitcoin hostile banks. [edit] mod please consider stickying this thread on: July 24, 2013, 01:46:19 PM
My friends use TD Bank in the US for all bitcoin purchases and they've never had problems. Also, I use Citizen's Bank (the subsidiary of Royal Bank of Scotland) and I haven't had many problems. I don't really have proof that either is "bitcoin friendly", but could they go under unconfirmed?
