Bitcoin is piracy currency here is why.

I buy an island, get satellite connection and start selling copyrighted materials, IP and other licensed shit for BTC. Basically, it is fat slap in the face to authorities who would want to freeze your accounts to stop you business and since there are no laws on your island you can't get in trouble,

I just loaned dank 10BTC. He agreed to pay 11.5BTC within a month. Will update once he repays.

Forgot one thing...                          ArrrhhH!

All of you are missing the point. China violates IP laws left and right. If you are tied up to dollars who is there to sue you? It seems like there is no such thing as international court that can say "China, bad!" I am considering bitcoin in this light. Your pie/apples examples are stupid, because no IP dealer would consider trading in a currency like that.

wow, so much for a productive discussion...

Bitcoin is outside of law, that's what makes it piracy currency... Not sure why people are even trying to argue this fact.
As far as my post goes, I was just trying to see if there were any intelligent people out there who would consider a thought experiment where bitcoin is involved in copyright infringement on multinational scale. Apparently not...

Bitcoin is some kind of piracy currency

I was thinking about a scenario where someone sells some IP for bitcoins. Is this still considered a legal offense if the IP is covered by trademark/copyright? Since countries do not recognize BTC as a currency, doesn't that make 'making profit from BTC' impossible? (considering relevant legal definitions). It seems to me like IP for BTC is a very exploitable area. Obviously, bitcoin is multinational and there is no unanimous copyright law for the world as well as some kind of enforcer. I have heard about some cases where China has "violated" a lot of US copyright laws and US can't do anything about it. Has anyone else ever thought of that? I am interested to hear from both fronts: pro and anti-copyright. Looking forward to your insight.

Blackmail linode... Get money for yourself plus publicity for bitcoin...

I have 3 7970, these fucking things get so hot causing the whole system to freeze up. They are also are pretty fucking loud. I put my rack into a closet with a dedicated fan. That room got temped up to about 95F, it was too hot to walk into. You will definitely need an adequate way to cool them. I am looking for one myself.

Neither, it is enjoyable for us "asshats" to use our time to read your rubbish. Do everyone a favor, stop posting anything at all.

Okay, seems like you are saying it is up to the software developer to choose a unit of measure. Might be confusing for customers, but at the same time can spice things up a bit, can spin off a myriad of different current for different businesses.

I was wondering, does anyone else feel that for an entry-level user (customer, payee, merchant) dealing with micro-bitcoins might seem as an unappealing feature? 

I am imagining a scenario sometime in the future where a random he or she employs bitcoin to buy a chocolate bar. Rather than paying an even nice-looking value like (1 buck), he /she has to pay something like 0.000000023BTC. Describe it anyway you want, this is extremely unappealing. Of course, I am considering here that the ultimate realm of bitcoin will be that of common human dealings. Maybe terms like micro-bitcoin haven't yet been mainstreamized.

I do understand that people around here feel great that they can say 1BTC is worth than 1 dollar. I am not trying to generate a discussion around that. Maybe next time.

Looking forward to yours answers. Thanks!

I'd buy some shares...

Thumbs up! This is the future...
One question: Wouldn't PayPal be able to do exactly the same thing if they wanted to?

Same shit here, WTF?

I actually want to host an exit node.

We need government so everyone can keep their primal urges to themselves and we can have a large functioning society. I don't think a civilization can exist without a government. History shows that people always needed a government. Some probably are going to argue this and it's okay. On the global scale of things, these people don't matter anyway because they are just a bunch of pissed off ignoramuses. Thank your government that you have any rights at all.

I have 2 7970, this is bull.

I am looking for a VPS provider that takes BTC and is not opposed to hosting a TOR relay.
Please PM me or reply here. Thanks!

Oh, okay... I thought you were calling me a troll in a typical "haze that newb" manner.
