Other than jokes , I think there would be serious side effects.
There is a small chance this may be the future of food , but a much larger chance that a deadly side-effect is lurking around the corner.
I'd suggest that you don't use it, until full tests of it are done as a permanent food source.


The blog is pretty awesome though , a Bitcoin transaction handshake sounds awesome too.

Even in the aforementioned post , the blog author says :-

The blog seems like an awesome place for revolutionary ideas , and I'd encourage you all to beta test a new software. Just not when it comes to food and the 'device' is your irreparable body

Fixed.

EDIT : Nobody seemed to notice what edit I had made D:
Boldened for effect

So we can all agree he has the courage to go out there and expose both parties, but he isn't really making that much sense.
Maybe I don't quite understand the context, but it seems like he's just taking out his frustration.
All he basically said was that the entire political and economic system is corrupt and incompetent.

I think there would be some proper explanation , but this theory gives rise to soooo many possible conspiracy theories.

What if DRK was set up by the government so that they could monitor our transactions while giving us the false sense of security.

What if DRK is meant to supercede Bitcoin and return control back to the government ?

.... we really need a conspiracies subforum.

Hopefully not.
With the kind of international attention this case has attracted, I doubt they'd be able to keep her imprisoned for long. Unlike previous cases involving Christian missionaries preaching, Sudan is really under pressure this time.

We would be buying this gift card from a reputed third-party so how would that happen ?

If what you are saying is right , won't people be reporting amazon and getting a free refund on any goods ?

Well , you clearly have not checked the rules properly.

You get paid the stated amount for every 50 posts , using up a 'slot'.
There are 5 slots , implying you can get upto 0.9 BTC per month with 300 posts.

While it is highly unlikely that an individual would get that much ,it is possible , this chance makes this campaign so amazing.

Scariest part about buying this

Also , other than that, there have been speculated problems , even if you assume that it has 100% RDA of all macro and micro nutrients :-

1. Loss of tooth power - your mandible will weaken and your teeth will become sensitive from lack of chewing
2. Stomach problems - sensitivity to solid foods, if you ever travel and need to ingest solid foods
3. Digestion disorders
4. Facial muscle loss & weakness thereby

Couldn't you just buy a gift card with paypal and then sell it for BTC ?
This could possibly need an escrow , but would stop chargebacks in the long term.

Steam gift cards seem like a likely winner , I can find quite a few websites selling for paypal with no additional fees (http://www.pcgamesupply.com/buy/Steam-Gift-Card-20/)

They are pretty high in demand , as steam wallet credit is nearly impossible to get for Bitcoin.

Any possible downsides ? If not , this may solve paypal chargeback solutions for quite some time , atleast if the seller wants to buy under 1 BTC.

I think a lot of it has to go with the fact that ethnic white communities feel victimized, feeling like they're being forced to stay politically correct.
That's the demographic FN and PVV pander to: white, working class, frustrated males. And that's been that way ever since the Euro-sceptic right wing emerged.
Don't see anything changing. Jews then, Muslims now, someone else 50 years down the line

I'd like to join the beta.

Sounds like a nice idea , but how feasible will it be ?
Why will decentralization be more valued than price ? There are lost of centralized , but free services.

Funnily enough, I can see Voice Of Russia and a few YT channels as the only ones covering this.

Do you have any other english language sources on this?

Aside from the energy efficiency issue, they're also going to be a nightmare as far as safety is concerned.
The LED signage could be hacked quite easily if I'm not mistaken, or at least it won't be particularly hard to do it.

Then there's the funding, crowdfunding will only get you so far, I doubt the plan will be able to attract serious investors

I wouldn't consider Rand a frontrunner. CPAC and similar early straw polls tend to lean towards younger, libertarian (at least perceived libertarians) but establishment candidates are tough to beat in the larger states. Paul will probably struggle for donors in CA, TX, OH. Current trends shouldn't be taken as a reasonable projection by any means.

Will it still have my normal password encryption ?

The reaction to Sgt. Bergdahl's story has in large part been one of unwarranted skepticism. Granted, there are details we do not know and may never know, the truth is that he was a POW. And even if he was disillusioned with the US's operation, he still deserved to be saved, just like any other POW. You can't pick and choose POW's to save based on their blind devotion to an operation that they can asses best on the ground.

For some reason , everyone has been ignoring the point of the question.

I think he is trying to ask something like this :-


Everyone seems to be answering why Bitcoin is better and why there would be problems mining.

Even if the question as reframed by me is not what he intended to ask , can anyone here answer it ?
The concept sounds interesting.

Other than making gold more used than aluminimum , for a huge amount of things (I guess we would use gold foil instead of aluminimum foil) , what effect would it have on the economy , of places like fort knox ?

School ?
I was talking about the fact that you registered using the same anonymous website registration service , which no other site I checked had used.

Sorry , I was just assuming.

I had put that here just in case RGC skips out with peoples' money , as a warning.

Not really.

A ponzi is basically a gamble with a much much higher house edge.
If you play on JD, using a martingale , 49.5% chance that you will get a profit and 50.5% chance you will get a loss.

On the other hand , a ponzi means you would probably get a much lower chance of profit , around 30% or so.
I think ponzis deserve to be put in gambling , as they are basically gambling systems where you "lose" when the owner skips on you.

I'd suggest you change the "slots" to around 0.025 for Full member , 0.075 for each additional 50 posts.

I believe that the payment for the first 50 slots is because :-
It gives assurance of an active user with sufficient new posts
It applies the signature to all previous posts

You are already massively overpaying and 0.075 BTC for each 50 additional posts will put you at around 0.0015 BTC per post , which is still at the top of signature campaigns.
You could probably cap this at 10-20 of these additional slots , and maybe making a cap per user too.

Currently , this is overcutting the next competitors by almost 100% (and even though that is awesome ) , it seems unsustainable in the long run.


Don't take that as an endorsement or assurance.

An irrational owner may still scam. I was just asserting that no rational person would scam.
A significant amount of scammers don't think rationally.

The second reason why an escrow is not really needed from their point of view is that they don't really need to start their signature campaign big , as it may prove to be unsustainable.
A smaller number of members will actually benefit them to test it out and they can increase over a month or so, after their first batch of payments.

Even without an escrow their campaign is really attractive.
