The only reason Bitcoin is more valuable then other altcoins is first mover advantage. It's the truth if you compare bitcoin to a lot of alt coins on the technical side Bitcoin is lacking heavily. If the Protocol was updated to do something more like a lot of altcoins do I feel this is what would truly make the Bitcoin price sky rocket.
Like what does this even mean? ^^ what does it lack ? All the other alt coins are basically scams. If that's the case then why do you have this in your signature?: BTCinstant.com - BUY GiftCards with AltCoins! Lol so much irony. Because someone paid him. You could pay me to use altcoins. Otherwise, I'm not interested in any current altcoin as a serious alternative to bitcoin. The only reason altcoins have any value > 0 is BECAUSE bitcoin came first. |

Another big problem would be how people living under ISIS could get the BTC, how do they pay for it?
In Argentina, it is apparently not very easy to get BTC without having to pay a large premium over US BTC price, someone (seller) has to accept something of value for the buyer to get them.
What poor Iraqi would have resources to buy any BTC?
Its a very simple solution, solved by bitcoin's inherent divisibility. A USD will go a long way in Iraq. So will a few satoshis. Examples: (in USD) $0.46 for a litre of gas. = 0.0008 btc $1 for a litre of milk = 0.001739 btc * source: http://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/country_result.jsp?country=Iraq |

Fiat can't be digital in nature because its not definable in mathematical terms. The banking infrastructure that supports fiat is digital though.
Bitcoin, on the other hand....

What rate are you offering?
I would be more than happy to act as escrow, free of charge, if you need it.

Just for clarification:
In fact it is mathematically much more complex than this, but the basic principle is as follows:
Imagine the black line being the complete search space. This searchspace has hundreds to thousands of rendevous points (depicted in red). Addresses which lie in the middle of two (marked green in the picture) rendezvous points (e.g. the maximum distance to each neighboring rendezvous point) are going to take a long time to crack. However, all keys that are in a certain area around these rendezvous points (certain area however can also mean several billion apart of course) are being cracked very easily (in a manner of days). Those weak addresses are marked blue in the picture. Now there is not just black and white but many different nuances, from very easy over tough but doable to very hard  The number of weak addresses is almost unlimited, so I can give you dozen examples that would hit one of the rendezvous points pretty easily. I will try to make a video presentation by the next week, just to describe the technical background behind this. Its too much to write down. Could you give any literature reference about this? Yes he can, but it the complexity. Such difficult. Much hard. Rendezvous points & shit. Btw rendezvous really just means a spot. So addresses in between the green spots are being cracked so hard. Such crack.  Send him cash. |

What was it about bitcoin that made you switch to Libertarianism? Bitcoin can still be used in socialistic ways, and as SOAD says you can also be a Libertarian Socialist. I'm interested to know how bitcoin caused this shift in you, though.
Socialist system cannot work without fiat and license to mint money cart blanche. But that doesn't mean that poor people must suffer with nothing. Private charitable organizations/philanthropists with deep pockets are more prevalent in free market libertarian societies. IMO government-managed social programs are so untenable and wasteful that they eventually destroy whole societies. |

Were these moneypaks donated by BipolarBob or cooldgamer? Very sorry to see you got screwed in a large amount.
Apparently cooldgamer sold them to BiPolarBob, who donated them to me. |
|
|
|
How much $ per moneypak is loaded?
$200 on one and $100 on the rest. $500 total. I don't know which ones are which, so I'll only sell them as a package. |

My bitcoin-OTC ratings page: http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratingdetail.php?nick=foggybForgot to mention that I can't claim these MP myself since I'm Canadian. So I'd really like to move them all soon. I also have $100 $80 in Google Play USA credits. 10 8 codes in all. If someone's feeling generous they can give me full price to help me repair my loss. Or else I'm selling them for 8$ each.

I got scammed earlier for 1.9 BTC. Was buying a gift from Amazon for a faimly member and an IRC imposter used a variant of someone else's nick to fool me.
These moneypaks were a donation from a very kind person to repair the damage. So please, no discounts.
I won't send first under any circumstances.
This message is signed with my GPG key.
Or get me on IRC to confirm.
I will accept BTC, LTC, or other crypto if the offer is good.
