It's sad that something nearly immutable is the source of your frustration but if that's the most pressing issue that really grinds your gears, you are very fortunate.  Perhaps you could start a charitable organization to bring awareness to errant Europeans, make yourself the CEO and be rich in spite of it all.


Our goal is to reach donations of 1.000.000.000 Bitcoins.

One advantage would be that the inhabitants of such a region would typically be superior. I am speculating that such a people who lived in this region for a long time would exhibit K-selected organism traits such as high IQs, hard workers, the ability to plan things for the long term, strong care for children, AND strong loyalty to the in-Group to name a few. Such traits would have been necessary for a people to survive in this region.

So to sum it up, your neighbors would be better people than the people who live in warmer regions.

And no smart ass, it isn't OTHER GEARS.

It's damn non Americans expressing numbers with periods instead of PROPER comas.

For example:

Two hundred and fifty thousand is expressed thusly: 250,000

NOT 250.000

Ok, now leave your pathetic comments below and I will be along to skim over them shortly.

Or the economy collapses and bitcoin follows suit,this is more how I see things happening,since the markets have already shown that to be the case with bitcoin. The rises are usually speculation and when the issue hits bitcoin drops.

when the markets go down, gold goes up. bitcoin is internet gold:-)

Make it trendy. Bitcoin will become fashionable for people at first. And that is how it will be adopted. Just like Starbucks was an unknown company at first, it became trendy and mainstream.

Drinking out of a cup with a Starbucks logo is nothing but a fashion statement.

If the NSA wants my Bitcoin they will have to get through my exactly 3000 M193 5.56mm full metal jackets.

spam FUD thread. We need to more mods to mop up such trash.

As long as they also delete yall's perma-bull nonsense..
689  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why the Future of Bitcoin Lies in Europe on: September 06, 2015, 04:46:52 PM
No, no. You guys have it all wrong. The future of Bitcoin depends on intergalactic space travel and bringing the blockchain to emerging alien civilizations.
690  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin stress test on: September 04, 2015, 09:48:06 PM
The stress testing will drive the price down significantly but it is not intended to kill Bitcoin.
691  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Wrong time to invest in bitcoin with the confusion? on: September 02, 2015, 03:06:32 PM
I would say for now, the perfect window to buy bitcoin is aometime AFTER September with all this FUD going on with stress tests and the Dow crashing. And BEFORE June 2016 when the block reward halves. Also before the Gemeni exchange launches.
692  Economy / Economics / Re: What happens to the price of gold if 300 tons are dumped on the market? on: August 30, 2015, 07:57:23 PM
The real thing to watch out for is if China and Russia start dumping all their gold that they have been buying.
693  Economy / Economics / Stock Market Crash =\= Bitcoin Surge on: August 29, 2015, 08:24:52 PM
Why do people think that a stock market crash will cause a surge in Bitcoin price? I have heard it both ways and I would like to hear the logic behind the reasoning.

Thank you.
694  Economy / Speculation / Better sell... on: August 24, 2015, 12:55:50 PM
...and buy back at a cheaper price. If we blow below $200 and sustain it, holy hell. You don't want to be holding bitcoin then.
695  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin on: August 21, 2015, 12:55:47 PM
If you create a wallet with Coinbase.com they give you $1 worth of Bitcoin for free.
696  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Price FLASH CRASH! on: August 19, 2015, 05:57:35 AM
Just wait till we sustain a price under $200.. oh boy. We will drop straight down to $100.
697  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Greece to Receive 1,000 Bitcoin ATM's on: August 18, 2015, 02:42:26 PM
And this is how mainstream adoption happens.
698  Economy / Speculation / Re: If bitcoin forks to XT, the price will start declining on: August 16, 2015, 08:24:24 AM
It's affecting the price even now. We already dropped to $257 from a stable week of $267.
699  Economy / Speculation / Re: About to pop. on: August 16, 2015, 08:19:54 AM
i always see you here talking about bitcoin being a big scam and claiming that the price is going to fall big time and soon, so i wonder why are you still in bitcoin forum when you think this way?!

He is trying to help people save their money by getting them to realize that Bitcoin won't last.

Without taxes, how does the government pay for things such as roads, free healthcare(in some countries) and things such as education

They don't, and that is what we want.


I was always under an impression that they outsource the work to local traders in turn of government projects and reward them money. I did not know that the government did not build roads and free health care hospitals and museums, etc. It peaks my interest on where the money for such comes from? Who provides these contractors finance for completing govt projects if not the govt?

The market. Private roads, schools, hospitals.

Also Fire departments, courts, dispute resolution companies, currency, etc will all exist far more efficiently in the absence of a government.

It is a myth that anarchy=chaos.

In reality, what we have in the world right now=chaos.

People should stop thinking of anarchy as the absence of government (it is not). And start thinking of anarchy as a 'subscription based government'. It will make more sense that way. And before you hit me up with your big bag of hypotheticals that you are thinking up, the answers have already been answered in detail by other anarchists.
