Ask the Libertarians how a "free market" would create a functional meshnet.

Wouldn't the radius need to intersect the center of adjacent transmitters?
what bores me most is when someone knit picks a 2 second diagrams and they try to point out specifics, but with a simple 2 second glance, misses the points and specifics of the whole idea want me to draw the planet and say the world will always be a round far after we all died. and wait a knit pick of that hills, mountains, values make it uneven, and house foundations make parts flat. to ignore the point that the world will be around. just to say its not perfectly ROUND It's not really a minor point. If fact, it would be a major factor in the placement and power of the transmitters. It would be a huge deal for stationary users. Competition may even drive people to kill their neighbor's wifi. A useful network would be contracted with licensed transmitters and carefully placed. For what you suggest: Mycelium's ad hoc network for Bitcoincard resolves this for mobile systems by limiting the bandwidth to sms sized messages. |

Apart from the "electronically created" part of the def. which was not an option in 1100A.D.
Nonsense. There were electric batteries found in Pharaoh's tombs in Egypt. They were just slackers.   Maybe they had a steampunk tally stick. |

There's no reason an electronic Bitcoin/Colored Coin version of a tally stick couldn't be made. It's not so much about the form (though it could look like a magic wand), but the simplicity and ease of use would help Bitcoin adoption.

Well when artists die their art value increases, so maybe if Satoshi dies the value of bitcoin will increase too.
There would be no way to confirm that, so no. |

Meshnets only work in high population density areas.
Why? Is this a limitation of hardware generally available, licensing is required for high enough powered transmitting devices? Or what? Meshnets don't use high powered transmitters. They depend on non-licensed freqs. |

Greed will destroy you.
Still using dial up to connect to the Internet? Or are you enjoying the benefits of the greedy companies that want to offer more and more speed to make money? I'm paying through the nose for a slow connection to a cable monopoly granted by the local municipality. ~slightly off topic~ lets hope your not a miner, throwing bitcoins at a electric company. coz thats not being a bitcoin investor, but a electric utility investor (you'd b surprised how many are selling all their coins as soon as its mined to cash back into FIAT) I was a miner before ASICs and did have to switch to altcoins when Bitcoin mining was no longer profitable. But to bring this point on topic, we can't avoid monopolies in rural areas. Meshnets only work in high population density areas. |

Those Rai stones are interesting, and what I find peculiar is how everyone seems to think they "Carved" the stones out of Limestone. In fact, the majority of Large Stone formations like the Pyramids are believed to be carved out of solid rock.
Does this make sense? When Limestone is used to make concrete and can be formed easily?
Look at those Rai stones and the center hole is perfect while many of them are irregular shaped disks. If they were experts at carving stone then why would they make them so imperfect?
It's because they poured the concrete around a pole and it dried.
There is no evidence that they had concrete technology. A center hole is round if you drill. |

The one where news media reports Bitcoin crimes only. Outside of forums and Reddit, nobody reports altcoin scams. Like I said, nobody hears about them.
..and if it's not in the mainstream media, it's not happening? Suzy Q Fox News watcher has barely heard of Bitcoin. Do you think she's going to even understand what a NameCoin is? Mainstream news is dumbed down and spoon fed. They just want to shock and awe. Fear and disgust are the two emotions news outlets try to elicit. It's harder to do that if you have to explain to the watcher for 45 minutes what the fuck an "alt" coin is. I have no idea what you are talking about. *plonk* |

DOGE
We're not DOGE.
We're a a whole different animal entirely.
I like DOGE because of the fundraisers. In fact, this is the only reason I own any DOGE.
Enough with the joke coins already. No Doge is not a different animal. You do not support Wikileaks, EFF, or anything serious for that matter. Where was Doge during the Typhoon in the Philippines? How many homeless people did dogecoins feed in the last few years? Where is the Doge 100 list of charities? Sadly, if dogecoin was actually takes seriously, it would also be used by criminals because that would mean it has actual value. Dogecoins are today's Garbage Pail Kids of the cryptocurrency toyland. Enjoy the laughs while you can. The criminal thing is actually an interesting point. You don't hear about a lot of doge scammers either. You don't hear about scammers in litecoin, namecoin, ppcoin, or any other altcoin either. There is nothing special about dogecoin there. Ummm...people aren't scamming other people for Litecoin, Namecoin, PeerCoin and Dogecoin? What planet are you guys on? The one where news media reports Bitcoin crimes only. Outside of forums and Reddit, nobody reports altcoin scams. Like I said, nobody hears about them. |

Bitcoin is much like the tally stick. In fact, it's a good analogy when explaining it to bankers. Then you can throw in Yap Stones.
