Yeah, they got alot of nerve being born on the other side of a line we drew in the sand and to want to get away from the shithole they found themselfs in.

Get in line, with all the rest of the immigrants who are going through the process legally.

Fuck you and your bleeding heart, for supporting people illegally entering the USA.

I have been to the USA three times, and all those times I have entered through a legal entry point, with my passport and other documents in order. Why can't other visitors/immigrants do the same?

I'll keep my greetings in one post.

Happy birthday, VB! I hope by next one you'll be disgustingly rich ;-)

Welcome back, erre! I'm glad account recovery worked for you.

Hello Masterluc! Hope they are treating you well in the asylum.

Hello, weekend! What will you be? Pump, dump or dumb (sideways)?


And since I'm a lazy fuck I'll just copy d_eddie.

Just finished my evening dinner. It was a two dollar TV dinner with mostly macaroni and sausages.
For dessert I'm scooping up nutella from the jar using the dinner knife.
No photos will be shown.

You can do it, but it is still ilegal. They would need to prove it is you who is doing it though. One bill every so often and probably nothing will happen, but if a lot of "stamped" bills are coming from you and it gets detected you would be into serious problems. Or maybe not... as even if the law exists it has never got to trial even once (at least in Spain).

Don't know where you live, but checked for the Euro notes, and it is definitely not illegal.
Hell some banks/store even use a special pen to write on it to check the note is not counterfeited.

also

Quote
According to the European Commission's Recommendation dated 22 March 2010,[32] "Member states must not prohibit or punish the complete destruction of small quantities of Euro coins or notes when this happens in private.

To me since destroying is the next step of defacing, I think this implies you can't get punished for doing it.

Legal in Sweden https://www.bbc.com/news/10526907

Never seen this Lebowski movie either. Guess I better see what the fuss is about, maybe later.

See it with subtitles, if you watch the dubbed versions you'll miss a lot of the points we are talking about.

Except how fucking slow would that rollout be? In the US we still have payment terminals requiring you to swipe instead of inserting the chip, which I'm pretty sure has been mandated by law.

Dunno for the USA. In france the deployment of NFC  was blazing fast tho. Few years and like everybody has it.

Be happy Globb0 its the best device Wink especially when their are Some won BTC on it Cheesy

I have a ledger blue as well, but prefer the nano s more Smiley

Love mine too. best Black Friday investment ever.

Blazing fast in Sweden too, everybody has them here now.

2% of actual increase on top of the 10K, what country, planet are you from..... we have to pay for having a bank account, and probably the time will come we have to pay, to may save money on a/that bank account Roll Eyes

Banks are shit but still 2% is rather common.

I got 3% and it's not under heavy conditions and it's rather risk-free. But if you consider inflation it's only a 1/1.5% net gain.

So BTC wins anyway.
I get exactly 0%. And inflation is well over your 2%. What planet...

Here you go, 2,25% was the best I could find, I guess you would have to take the train to Sweden thou.

It's hard for sinsemilla to spread her seed without losing sinsemilla status!  Grin

I had to think about this for a little while.

It was The Miraculous Sensemilla.

Sinsemilla is a virgin. Herb on the other hand, he is not.

Fuck Lambos.

Fuck Yachts.

When it moons beyond $20k, Rick and I are going to buy some property in Denver, build a big-ass warehouse on a portion of it, register with whoever we need to register with, and become farmers... and stuff...

Living out retirement in a state friendly to the herb, sounds like a horticulturalists "Happily Ever After".

Do not see the political/legal landscape changing in Texas for at least another decade, otherwise I would invest in the real-estate/infrastructure here.

Then again, having to commute back-and-forth between CO and TX seems like a nightmare, so, maybe it's best left to the realm of dreams...

I thought you hated the snow?

next game will be rewarded with 1 FULL grin

how about that,

will the list be long ?

What will the guess be, the price of a grin at the end of March?
If so, I predict 25 US cents.

But you will have to give the price to someone else since i have no frecking clue how to accept and store a grin.

Can someone ban all of these grin fans?
WTF?  Shocked

Dude. Didn't you get the memo ? This place is Grintalk now.

much grintalk

but still didn't saw any HAIKU of it



Grin is just shit shit
Will never be legit git
How about that that

Don't buy now...

Inflation is crazy on the first two years. Wait for the price to get down.

In a year or two I think that if GRIN is still alive I'll buy a shitton of it. Then will ride this other moon train in 4 years.

Why would it become more valuable after a couple of years? What would change then?
as I see it it would just keep loosing value forever, since there is a infinite supply and enormous production speed.
You will quickly hit the point where more grins are manufactured than there buyers.

2895  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 17, 2019, 11:39:13 PM
What's the general consensus on Grin? Are we buying it or Is theymos trolling us again with another shitcoin? (remember howey) No address, no coins, sounds weird af. I don't know what to think about it.
 
With unlimited supply and 50 grins made every minute, it's destined to die young.
2896  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 16, 2019, 11:59:09 PM
tyvm 4 the merits, guys
 Grin


Grin prices so far
 24h Low / 24h High    $81.75 / $261.65


Saw that on CoinGecko - but 'zero' volume is listed... Are they pre-order prices on an exchange?
I was chilling in the grin discord just to check it out, supposedly people are buying and selling to themselves to rig the price.  If you are actually interested I would hold off on purchasing any until the market settles.

Btw they couldnt come up with a better name than grin? Huh
I'll just wait until the copy "laughter" is launched with a limited supply.
2897  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 16, 2019, 06:08:47 PM

Well, if it's infinite it won't be worth anything. That's Economics 101.

No it's not, that is a common misconception, deflationary emission can create security as well as lower volatility. There is no reason a currency should not restore lost or destroyed coins except to create a system that creates rarity of those coins and that is a SOV type system which has not been proven to be secure as of yet.

Standard economic models do not apply to crypto as they do not take the cost of the security of the currency into account.

Yes they do, they apply to everything that can be bought and sold.

We already have Binance in Europe. Roll Eyes

Launches Binance Jersey

Crypto Exchange Binance Enters European Markets

According to the release, Binance is launching a new trading platform, dubbed Binance Jersey, designed for fiat-to-crypto trading of the euro (EUR) and British pound (GBP) with Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) within Europe and the United Kingdom.

https://www.binance.je

https://cointelegraph.com/news/crypto-exchange-binance-enters-european-markets-launches-binance-jersey

Hmmm, won't be long before they start forcing KYC as well. Time to stop being lasy and get some cold storage going and get excess funds off of there. I hate fighting with the printer, only use it once a year or so and those cartridges drive me batty. Smiley

Did you account for air drag, or did you only consider gravitational acceleration?

I took an average pebble out my garden. It weighs 10 grams and has a mean diameter of about 20 mm. If we assume it were perfectly spherical with a drag coefficient of 0.47, travelling through air with standard density of 1.225 kg/m^3, and plug the figures into the formula for terminal velocity we get: sqrt((2*0.01*9.81)/(1.225*(3.14*0.01^2)*0.47)) = 33 m/s or 119 km/h. If we pipe that into E = 1/2*m*v^2 for energy, we get ~5.5 J or ~4 ft-lb.

Or in other words, I need Bitcoin to do something exciting.

Perfectly spherical bullets are way different to regular bullets that end up tumbling as soon as they lose the rotational speed with a way higher air drag.

Much of the penetration of a regular gunshot is thanks to its rotational speed. That's why pipeguns are not that effective, even at very short distance, unless properly directed against unprotected vital points (neck, eyes, temple, etc).

To the mooooooon!!! weeeeeeeeee Tongue

WO is a surprise box. I share this hobby, sports shooting, it seems that they understand a lot about ballistics. Wink

Oh, past year I decided to cancel/not renew my "sports shooting" license and sell my firearms. Now I am an officially unarmed civilian  Cry Cry

It was already pretty boring and expensive hobby with all the increasing legislation, requirements and taxes. I envy our American friends in the gun regulations.

Of course, United States is different. Cool

Yup, Cops stole all my guns, different.

Would you like to share with the rest of the class?

So what's the plan guys? If Grin works out well, bitcoin devs shove all that tech onto bitcoin?
https://github.com/mimblewimble/grin/blob/master/doc/grin4bitcoiners.md

I don’t know that you could port Bitcoin onto Grin. So it is a threat.  

But their monetary policy is fuxxed.  Big mistake having an endless emissions.  Same trap Monero fell into.  

So that significantly reduces the threat.  

No that is untrue, an emission is a necessity for a currency that's goal is use and low volatility for a plethora of reasons while a cap is good for a SOV which Btc is.

Endless emission means no value, this is, literally, economics 101. No value means that it is useless. Those guys might be good coders but they know absolutely nothing about economics.
But don't take my word for it, just wait until their wishes meets reality.

Weeee! I just got paid $4300 for the inherited land. It was double than what I expected because of some error in my favour of the parameters in the documents. Now waiting for the money to arrive at CB. Then with no hesitation I will hit the button for a direct buy, I love to do that!  Grin I know that this sum is ridiculously small for many in this forum, but I am happy to increase my modest low 2 digit stash with 2BTC in a month. At these prices I could buy with my fucking salary in the shittiest country in the world only 2BTC in a year! My decision has always been to ignore the market pumps and dumps (I am not that good to predict esp. the dumps) and wait 2-3 years for my first sale. I hope to be able to buy a villa at the beach with part of my stash by then. I still have a firm belief that we will make it to 30K-40K range by then. We shall see.

Congratulations, no sum is too small, I don't think anyone looks down on a true hodler, regardless of the sum.
