It is a closed market for SolarCoin not for BitCoin. I outlined it above ^

Buying at market is what you do at coinbase by the way. When you buy it's always a market buy.

That is a closed market since you don't need SolarCoin to buy something so you won't go buy SolarCoin only Claimers will try to sell it and then merchants sell off too. Possible that people can play that market and it may keep boosting so it would be better than only BitCoin. I just think it wasn't this way initially since that is the Securities act violation. When selling to BitCoin then BitCoin bears the burden of FIAT transactions and SolarCoin is still free from scrutiny even though there is a slight amount of scrutiny that it may be able to slip around it by not offering FIAT based exchange.

Had BitCoin never accepted FIAT and only used for trade it may still hold the same distinction but now as it sits BitCoin is a Stock and Commodity forged out of Spurious activity and peoples willingness to invest in ASICs to produce coin from thin air.

1. A pro rata stock dividend, where a shareholder receives no actual cash or other property, and retained the same proportionate share of ownership of the corporation as was held prior to the dividend, is not taxable income to the shareholder within the meaning of the Sixteenth Amendment.

2. An income tax imposed by the Revenue Act of 1916 on such dividend is unconstitutional, even where the dividend indirectly represented accrued earnings of the corporation.

"It is manifest that the stock dividend in question cannot be reached by the Income Tax Act and could not, even though Congress expressly declared it to be taxable as income, unless it is in fact income."

"A stock dividend really takes nothing from the property of the corporation, and adds nothing to the interests of the shareholders. Its property is not diminished, and their interests are not increased. . . . The proportional interest of each shareholder remains the same."

The stock dividend in this case was the economic equivalent of a stock split—a transaction in which the corporation multiplies the total number of shares outstanding, but gives the new shares to shareholders in proportion to the number they previously held. For example, if a corporation declares a "two for one" stock split (and distributes no money or other property to any stockholder), a stockholder who held 100 shares at $4 per share will now hold 200 shares with a value of $2 each, which is still $400 in value.

"Brief as it is, it indicates the characteristic and distinguishing attribute of income essential for a correct solution of the present controversy. The government, although basing its argument upon the definition as quoted, placed chief emphasis upon the word "gain," which was extended to include a variety of meanings; while the significance of the next three words was either overlooked or misconceived. "Derived from capital;" "the gain derived from capital," etc. Here, we have the essential matter: not a gain accruing to capital; not a growth or increment of value in the investment; but a gain, a profit, something of exchangeable value, proceeding from the property, severed from the capital, however invested or employed, and coming in, being "derived" -- that is, received or drawn by the recipient (the taxpayer) for his separate use, benefit and disposal -- that is income derived from property. Nothing else answers the description."

"It is in vain to say that enlightened statesmen will be able to adjust these clashing interests, and render them all subservient to the public good. Enlightened statesmen will not always be at the helm. Nor, in many cases, can such an adjustment be made at all without taking into view indirect and remote considerations, which will rarely prevail over the immediate interest which one party may find in disregarding the rights of another or the good of the whole."

"The fundamental relation of "capital" to "income" has been much discussed by economists, the former being likened to the tree or the land, the latter to the fruit or the crop; the former depicted as a reservoir supplied from springs, the latter as the outlet stream, to be measured by its flow during a period of time. For the present purpose, we require only a clear definition of the term "income," as used in common speech, in order to determine its meaning in the amendment, and, having formed also a correct judgment as to the nature of a stock dividend, we shall find it easy to decide the matter at issue. The government, although basing its argument upon the definition as quoted, placed chief emphasis upon the word "gain," which was extended to include a variety of meanings; while the significance of the next three words was either overlooked or misconceived. "Derived from capital;" "the gain derived from capital," etc. Here, we have the essential matter: not a gain accruing to capital; not a growth or increment of value in the investment; but a gain, a profit, something of exchangeable value, proceeding from the property, severed from the capital, however invested or employed, and coming in, being "derived" -- that is, received or drawn by the recipient (the taxpayer) for his separate use, benefit and disposal -- that is income derived from property. Nothing else answers the description."

"Legal trials are not like elections, to be won through the use of the meeting-hall, the radio, and the newspaper... And the Court has insisted that no one be punished for a crime without 'a charge fairly made and fairly tried in a public tribunal free of prejudice, passion, excitement, and tyrannical power'... The theory of our system is that the conclusions to be reached in a case will be induced only by evidence and argument in open court, and not by any outside influence, whether of private talk or public print... Moreover, the jurors were thrust into the role of celebrities by the judge's failure to insulate them from reporters and photographers... The carnival atmosphere at trial could easily have been avoided."
