Isn't this the same host that hosts buttcoin.org, the known terrorist anti-bitcoin site?
I like that you left out "illuminati" and "jew", so as not to go full-retard. It's just a pity the rest of this topic makes up for it. fuck you, pretty sure buttcoins been behind every single major attack against bitcoin!! They've done nothing but insult bitcoins good name and organise all that kinda shit! if I could be bothered I whois buttcoin and send them a threatening letter in the mail or something!! just to show them they can't bully everyone with their terrorist tactics!!

You're missing my point. my point is that bitcoins haven't settled on any market defined value because currently the only reason they are worth so much is because everyone is going "hey I'm going to spend 10 dollars on bitcoins right now!" due to the speculators and hoarders, rather than because they're actively being used in a comercial aspect.

Attempt by nanaimogold to distract from the links between him and MyBitcoin, at a guess - nanaimogold.com isn't just on any random Canadian hosting provider. There's a whole bunch of interlinked sites that appear to be run by either the same people or people that know each other due to lots of similarities in hosting setups (many use FreeBSD, one particular obscure and uncommon webserver, are on the same hosting provider in the same range of IP addresses, have PrivacyShark-registered domains, that kind of thing). One of these sites is link2voip.com: they use FreeBSD, that webserver, and that host provider and IP address range. (They also linked to e-gold with the same referral code as PrivacyShark back when both accepted it for payment.) Oddly if you look at their facilities information the listed IPs for their Candian VOIP servers 66.51.127.173 and 66.51.110.210 aren't on that IP address range. In fact... $ nslookup www.nanaimogold.com Server: 8.8.4.4 Address: 8.8.4.4#53
Non-authoritative answer: Name: www.nanaimogold.com Address: 66.51.99.35
$ whois 66.51.99.35
Tera-byte Dot Com Inc. TERA-BYTE-2 (NET-66-51-96-0-1) 66.51.96.0 - 66.51.127.255 American Registry for Internet Numbers NET66 (NET-66-0-0-0-0) 66.0.0.0 - 66.255.255.255
$ whois 66.51.127.173
Tera-byte Dot Com Inc. TERA-BYTE-2 (NET-66-51-96-0-1) 66.51.96.0 - 66.51.127.255 American Registry for Internet Numbers NET66 (NET-66-0-0-0-0) 66.0.0.0 - 66.255.255.255 Same hosting provider for nanaimogold.com as for those VOIP servers. Funny that. (This happens a lot when you dig into the people and companies surrounding MyBitcoin and PrivacyShark... they're all so incredibly intertwined.) Isn't this the same host that hosts buttcoin.org, the known terrorist anti-bitcoin site?

Lol, yeah, things that no one wants to keep are super valuable.
That implies bitcoin currently has real value instead of speculativity driven value. I just sent my friend in Dubai $50 worth of value. After clicking "send" I went to pee, and upon my return he had confirmed receipt of payment. Zero fees. What's your point? The bitcoins you had were only worth 50 dollars because speculators and hoarders drove the price high, rather than because bitcoins have any practical use at the moment other than converting them back into USD or otherwise. It's like saying "well this dust I picked up off the side of the road is valued at 50 dollars a gram!!" but only if you could find someone who's actually willing to pay that for it.

I hate to say this but this still suffers from all the issues that previous suggestions for point of sale stuff has, in that it takes a great deal of time comparatively to confirm the transaction is actually valid. People aren't going to wait around for a quarter of an hour after buying a stick of gum to wait for a transaction to verify.

If I understand the question correctly, we have this in the UK with all our utilities (gas, electric, water, phone, broadband etc) all distributed across the same network infrastructure by different competing companies.
there does not need to be a meter at the supply end just a meter at usage end and to kno who was charging for the supply.
Yes and all it did was make it more expensive. Natural Monopolies are just that, Natural monopolies. Trying to make them some free market playground doesn't fucking work.

Most of the country is dependent on some kind of Government handout to one degree or another(food stamps, wefare, unemployment, subsidies, contracts ect.).
It would help if the rich hadn't been screwing everyone over for about 20 years now.

Think of it this way, if you drop taxes by half on corporations, you are essentially gambling that the additional 10% of revenue that the corporations get is going to increase their profit (by investments, etc) by 100% in the next fiscal year for it to even break even, something which is horrifically misguided.

it should be noted that the patent on this tripe was rejected because it "broke the laws of phsyics", sweet.
What patent do you refer to ? The patent of Rossi was not rejected. That patent was issued in 2011, 3 years after he first tried to patent the device. Additionally, that patent is only valid in Italy. No US or EU patent exists for the product given that both US and EU patent offices have thrown it out as being complete bollocks.

ah, look at that tremendous fiscal responsibility under Reagan!
Reagan expanded the military and thankfully increased military pay after years of totally ignoring the armed services. Without those expenses I would argue the collapse of the USSR and the Soviet Bloc would not have happened or would have taken far longer. A united Germany which is now the powerhouse of the EU was a direct result of those expenses. Being able to respond to world issues with a "Big Stick" to back it are a direct result and remember that would include such things as Kosovo or the years of protecting the Kurds in northen Iraq. All that spending only raised the % of GDP going to debt by less than 15%. Obama and the sloths that run our Gov't in DC on the other hand have increased that percentage by at least 15% and to what end? A bunch of people got cars they cannot afford in order to bail out the auto industry, which BTW failed and resulted in a full bailout. More people got to stay in homes they could not afford which in turn caused a bailout of the financial sector, a bailout or takeover of F&F which will likely need to be repeated as the exposure there exceeds $200 billion. Not to mention a takeover of healthcare which will result in more Gov't payouts of printed money of at least $940 BILLION per the CBO. Now as a business owner you take on debt in order to expand and in the end become a better business. Do you see anywhere in the current spending or spending plans any attempt to become "better" at anything? At what point has the Gov't public service areas ever done something "Better" than the private sector? I love it when people cite roads and highways, transportation as an example since all the above are contracted out to, you got it, the private sector. Reagan was a monster who wasted tens of billions of US dollars on essentially personnel projects, funding proxy wars against the dastardly commies and funding terrorism overseas. His Tax cuts did nothing but government income and the same reckless disregard for sanity is what has led bush to the idiotic tax cuts that the country is now stuck with. It doesn't help that any attempt to get those tax cuts removed is replied with "nope, heh" from the republicans. And no, the primary factor as to why the USSR fell apart was because it's economy was a joke by 1980 due to years of economic stagnation due to various factors. Reagan was just a paranoid lunatic who saw communists everywhere and raised the budget for superfluous armed forces because of it.
