Government agents will wait till the ATM is full of cash before confiscating it.

Pretty lame if you ask me - especially when bitcoin touts itself as being "free of transaction fees". Sooo, you don't have to pay a fee, but it will take over a day for confirmation - gay.
I'm definitely holding onto my litecoins.

*sigh*
Sorry, but there won't be any bitcoin ATMs popping up all over Canada this fall. The government would just take any that were put out there, including any money contained within.

What a waste of time.
If businesses don't accept bitcoin, its to their own detriment. Buy whatever they're selling and offer it for bitcoin yourself. Then you make the profits that they won't.

Why is the FTC or KS AG office not going after BFL? BFL and its key people either have great contacts or have been extremely lucky.
Wahhhhh...why won't mommy and daddy government do something to protect me from my own stupid decisions?..wahhhh!

Yeah, cheaper prices are bad.

I can't say that the caliber of the membership today is anything like what it was in 1776.
Well, theoretically, the goals remain the same, but I can't argue this point. The one Mason I have personally made acquaintance with was 1776 material, though. Most of the ones I've met were junkies. ...high membership standards? I think they're mostly just initiating family members, and with each generation, there has been an overall dumbing down and decrease in character. Being born into extra benefits is destructive to the soul over the long term.

I'm gonna try. I wish I knew about this sooner because now I'm locked into a bunch of other crap. I'd much rather go to Libertopia.

There's no "magic" in bitcoin numbers. What I like better about litecoin is the faster transaction times - that's a clear advantage.
I don't see a future with only one cryptocoin. That's very old-world-type thinking <insert all seeing eye here>.
So, you like it because you like it - great circular reasoning. You also collectively ignored everything else I said, good job. I do see a future with other coins that have something to contribute, not these dial-twiddling crap-coins. But you would've realized that if you had read my fucking post. Nooo..I like it because of faster confirmation times. How hard is that to understand?

Is it overbought? I see them all over the place in LA.

Seems like there are some people on here who are hell-bent on slamming alt-coins.
I'd be more optimistic about alt-coins if they actually had something interesting to offer, beyond twiddling the existing Bitcoin magic numbers and calling it "new" and in some misguided cases, "better". Clear enough for you? There's no "magic" in bitcoin numbers. What I like better about litecoin is the faster transaction times - that's a clear advantage. I don't see a future with only one cryptocoin. That's very old-world-type thinking <insert all seeing eye here>.

who's wants to wait that long to buy something small and on the go?
Especially if it happens in a public place where there are witnesses and CCTV cameras everywhere making it more likely the guy will be identified and arrested. You have obviously never reported a "crime" to the police... And probably think cops look for lost dogs. ^this Also, what about a 1~2 bitcoin transaction? I really don't want to wait over an hour for that to happen either, but I also don't want to be ripped off for $100-$200 either. In my case, I was selling 2 bitcoins, and the guy didn't just want to hand me $200 and trust that the coins were going to be in his account. Seems like there are some people on here who are hell-bent on slamming alt-coins.

I like litecoins because so far anyway, I've never had to wait an hour for confirmations, like I have had to with bitcoin.
Instant gratification doesn't mean it will scale. But go ahead, risk your own money. Has nothing to do with "instant" gratification, as neither coin is "instant". What becomes a problem is when I am trying to do an exchange with someone at a coffeeshop, and we're both on a schedule, and we're both waiting for over an hour for just 3 confirmations. Waiting an hour for confirmations is no big deal for online shopping where you're gonna wait for shipping anyway, or if you're buying something big, but who's wants to wait that long to buy something small and on the go? If I wanted to really risk my money, I'd put all my eggs in one basket.

Hopefully. And it wouldn't be bad to see the SEC investigating also the very well known "hero" members that gave Trevor credibility and promoted his ponzi by running PTs and such...
Totally agree with this, even though some of them might already have been punished pretty bad... Here are the top ending account balances from: http://ia600904.us.archive.org/35/items/gov.uscourts.txed.146063/gov.uscourts.txed.146063.4.8.pdfpayb.tc 150.501 gigavps 45.783 hashking 45.680 onefixt 39.781 copumpkin 37.936 (received 10.5% weekly interest for some reason) goat 35.864 imsaguy 35.064 brightanarchist 30.486 (funny username) PatrickHarnett 29.140 rpac_internet 27.998 rix2000 25.100 bitcoinbaltar 25.501 brendio 25.000 btc4domains 21.420 PxJem7Cj 20.000 reeses 17.682 bwagner 13.500 ineededausername 9.275 Yeah sure, some of these were Pass-Throughs, but still I am sure some took some heavy losses here.

A great day! But also do not forget: Without a government "service" like the SEC, nothing would have happened! That is pointed towards some tea party supporters here who would like to have no government... Don't be a douche. If there was no government monopoly on the use of force he'd already have been hanged. and for those that say none of us would have done anything to him - you're crazy. I put a guy in the hospital when I was 16 over $600. Thing is, I didn't have any money in BTCST myself - I'm not that stupid to believe in 7% weekly returns.

Great news! I hope he gets put in a cell with a large thug who uses him as a F*** doll. That would certainly be appropriate.

I actually am familiar with that area. Pretty scary. You don't want to go out at night around there.

Selling guns for bitcoins doesn't require following any regulations.
All law in USA is commercial. If you're not using their negotiable instruments (FRNs) - they really don't have a say in the matter.
