no laws needed, the currency has all rules in it itself.
What's with your freakish avatars?

First Bin Laden and now Gaddafi?

Do we have to put you on a terrorist watch list or something?

Freaky to say the least dude... Freaky... Huh

Explain to me, why would I want to steal money if I believe in karma?  Would I rather scam some people for some valueless concept of greed, or would I rather be an honest man and bring people together at a concert?  Hmm..

I'm still hoping you want to eat a bug.

Fucking liars.

I have had my demand in for over 8 days providing all the information this latest line of garbage is spewing for all of my assets to be paid out immediately.

Nefario and all the other criminals who own this exchange are now in debt to me, and I demand payment in full. You have been served notice publicly, and have all the records privately.

I hold every owner of GLBSE the holding company equally liable, being the first rat off the sinking ship with your words does not excuse this obligation.



Aww look at Loup get all pissy about his monopoly shares on GLBSE getting held up.

Maybe next time you won't send your money/bitcoin to an unregulated stock exchange in which the owner doesn't know the meaning of the word "arbitrage".

We need more clowns like you. Please bring the whole troop so we can have another good laugh after laugh.

 Cheesy

Geez smoothster- I though we were friends, being as how we both fight for justice and integrity and the honest way of doing things and all.

Truth be told, I don't expect to see a single thing back from the next greatest rip-off in bitcoin history. I'm just pointing out an obligation, because I finally got stung (a little bit, 208.5 btc, the family is still able to afford groceries, thanks for worrying) in one of these. Yet another nail in the coffin of any possible use for bitcoin other than funding drug purchases on silkroad and funding anal lube for the "customers" of all the genius businessmen here.

Get ready for it kids, bitcoin is going down the path of specialized criminal enterprise so fast it outstrips belief. The next big disaster is already out there- BFL's and the massive pre-order, that will end up getting the royal shaft in about 30 days. Of course, my bets against their delivery were all on GLBSE, so I won't get to enjoy a glass of bubbly celebrating that particular premonition.

Let's just wrap this joke up and call it finished. It was an experiment in what an unregulated currency could do to save mankind from his ugly, brutish and short self, and all we have done is prove that all most people want to do is prey on one another to satisfy their own greed. Bitcoin business is really little more than a collection of blood-sucking leeches who have the technical chops to wrap their confidence games in crypto-technical mumbo jumbo, and play the mark by sounding like they actually give a damn about fixing the economic reality of our world. But in the end, all we find is a bunch of petty gangsters who would sell their mothers for the next tin coin.

Atlas, it's not like you do anything but complain and write awful blog posts, you aren't a programmer and clearly don't understand what it's like to manage an open-source project like Bitcoin. You can't just throw code together based on every idea you see, there has to be a clear direction and the dev team is rightfully conservative about the changes they make.

Also "hate the dev team"? Why do you have to hate anyone, even if you profoundly disagree with them? There's nothing to indicate they're acting in bad faith.

If bitcoin takes hold how are they going to able to fund their police state or military industrial complex to go after bitcoin ?

If they were really all powerful the silk road wouldnt be out there giving them the finger right now  Smiley
Sales Tax on merchant nodes, property tax, luxury tax, capital gains taxes (enforced by exchangers), and a variety of other ways they can tax you (EVEN WITH Bitcoin)....

People who are serious about Bitcoin need to stop saying that they aren't going to be paying any taxes...

I will admit that it will be much more difficult for a state authority to abuse a system like Bitcoin, but saying we're not paying taxes!

It sends the wrong message, and only shows you are living in pure fantasy land when you say "they can't touch me", when really they can...

Cheesy SA is going to EAT THIS ALL UP!!

Not really.  Goons are pretty pissed off at anyone who is trying to politicise the Benghazi deaths.

While Vilerat would likely have found the accusation that Goonswarm is a CIA front amusing and encouraged people to exploit it, the circumstances surrounding his death are still too raw for people to find humour in such accusations.
I find humor in GB's craziness.

I think what they are doing is disgusting btw.

It's sad that Irans government chooses to keep their country in the dark ages.

Same goes for China.

We can say the same for US
Thats just not fair.

Won't waste any time explaining why.

To do so, open the wallet menu, and click "Deposit" to receive an address (Bitcoin's equivalent to an account) that you can send your bitcoins to for them to appear in your UpTweet wallet. If you have more bitcoins than you can find goods on the UpTweet marketplace to buy with them, you can withdraw your bitcoins and use them in the rest of the Bitcoin economy too. There is a wide variety of goods and services available for sale for bitcoin, including digital goods, clothing and accessories, professional services and more in thousands of stores around the world; there are even ways to convert your bitcoins into prepaid debit cards, gift cards or even money in your bank account or cash.

Looks like you will be operating a 'wallet' type service. How will depositors be reassured that you won't just claim you got hacked and run off with all the coins? Will you have any security or account auditing by a third party? Will there be any insurance on these deposits?
Thank you for these excellent questions.

It is not our intention to operate a wallet service. We are adding language to our website to make clear that UpTweet is not responsible for any Bitcoin losses to a user account.

We take security very seriously. Changes are being made to UpTweet such that users are only able to withdraw to their own previously set address. When the withdrawal address is changed they will receive email notice and withdrawals will be suspended for 24hrs, allowing them to respond to any unauthorized changes of the address.

In preparation for our world wide launch, TweetForum has acquired a more appropriate name for it's content revenue sharing platform.

The Bitcoin community has seen this idea evolve from the moment I came into this community. The project / idea has obviously grown since then,

and could only have gotten to this level with the help of all of you!

so after all these posts... i still cannot see a pic of a jalepeno, a pic of a jally running, or anything asic based at all?

just the old fpga stuff that was not worth ordering in my mind.
To be fair their FPGA's (singles) are a GREAT product. They are efficient, quiet, and offer a low but competitive entry into the Bitcoin world.

The only thing that makes them "not worth" ordering, is the fact that ASICS are * supposedly* coming out very soon, rendering their offered efficiency obsolete.

677  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Butterfly Labs CEO 25 Million USD Mail Fraud — A Concise Summary of Evidence on: September 21, 2012, 04:33:09 PM
I have seen a lot of people citing the fact that BFL previously delivered working FPGA-based products.  Can we maybe compare the current situation to the one a bit before the release of the FPGA products?  Were any pictures, design documents, etc made available by BFL as the FPGA products were in development, or was the same lack of transparency shown then as is being now?

</selfquote>

Can anyone comment on this?  When the BFL FPGAs were a month from their target release date, was there the same lack of evidence that they even exist that we are seeing now with the ASICs, or were there pictures available, demonstrated prototypes, power consumption numbers, etc?

I wasn't following the scene very closely at the time, so I don't know myself from memory.
There was stuff everywhere about them.

(pictures, videos, blogs)

I wonder what leftists are doing in a community that's dedicated to building an ultra-randian utopia?
Bitcoin is Apolitical.

Not everyone is an anachonut who wants to take down the government and enact a randian order...

Bitcoin is an awesome utility that CAN AND WILL be used by private organizations and world governments around the world, to better enhance their monetary securities and invest in a sound solution for the future.
679  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How much can we stand? on: September 21, 2012, 04:25:12 PM
Even after everything... all the scams and ponzis. The bucket-shops and "online wallets." The thefts and "hacks." The "credit-ratings" and "savings and trusts."

The hits keep on coming. And coming.

The latest? You dare ask?

New Asset idea, Cambodian rice sharecropping (4% to 6% a year) Feedback wanted!

Now, I don't know about you, but I think there comes a time when we need to stand up and say ENOUGH!

I think that time is somewhere before "Cambodian rice sharecropping," no matter who brings it to the table, even if it is "goat on a boat."

Can this community show some spine, not to mention decency, and say no to this?

You would prefer that more people were unemployed and dependent on their families or worse - the state?

No one is being forced to work there, I fail to understand what leftists see wrong in that.
If you can call these investments schemes "work" and people like goat "unemployed", then I rest my case. People who actually do REAL work and build things, do not appreciate the clever antics. I certainly don't like people who come up with these "gimme money" schemes and then correlate that with defeating unemployment....

...And yes, there was a conference, a few hundred people attended including some top dev's and pool operators...

Were they real people or just virtual sock puppets?


The conference happened... Lets not stray from the BFL related topics at hand.
