maybe there is financial viability in banks using a cryptocurrency based system instead of current infrastructure to look after the transactions.. to enable them to mimic bitcoin in features such as international transactions. . but the transparency.. . and the philosophy . . and the very nature of the design . . . is kind of lost.. don't you think? like .. I'm sure they can come up with a better - more manipulated/able - alternative? which is what they would prefer of course. Being private profit-driven corporations. Anyway, the old money in banking will probably never understand what Bitcoin stands for. What world it shines a light on.
P.S no government or society of humanity has created or paid (or probably is ABLE to pay) for the world's most powerful supercomputer network - the hashing backbone of Bitcoin.
Can i please be let into the forums I've been reading posts for months now not knowing why I couldn't post, but now the itch is too much and I can't be bothered with this newb section.
I have been researching btc for over a year now (6 months whilst without work, so very intensively too). I have a BFL miner on order (don't judge me lol) and another from Multiverse (for a couple of btc why not - if it turns up I can let you all know they're legit too!)
I have 2 wallets, one physical only. I dabble on bets of bitcoin. My twitter feed on my phone is generally about 50% btc related posts and about 50% is posts from this forum.. a lot of which I would love to interact with more!!
this is ridiculous! attn mods - there is no super obvious details about these restrictions. I've been a member for a while now and gave up trying to find why i couldn't post. ended up finding this section from a google search and then finding another post from another person asking why they cant post.... maybs put it in the registration? or am i just blind?
