They claimed they were fully capitalized. Until they were forced to admit they were not.

Why can't you at least present matters a bit more objectively rather than seeming to be so emotionally attached. 

More objectively!? My statement above is objective fact, you nincompoop.

It's really not that hard to detect their dishonesty.

I don't believe that they were completely honest

'zackly. 'zwhat I'm sayin' They are dishonest. Full stop.

(see how I added an exclamation to my question in order to demonstrate my emotional attachment?)

Don't make me dig out Maxwell's equations on y'all.


Go on then

Won't even have to. Satellite-band TV signals, being electromagnetic waves, are just light that oscillates more slowly. Accordingly, people can understand elements of their behavior by commonly perceived light behavior.

Look at one of those antenna dish assemblies. Picture your eye being where the LNA is. Pointing in the same direction - angled upwards towards the dish. Now envision the dish being a mirror. Whadda ya see? The road? No! You see the sky, silly.

Those dishes are pointing skyward.

Hard to draw mathematical notation in BBCode anyhoo. Plus, it'd run right over most heads.

Sorry - needed to quote a .jpg in order to respond.

I am puzzling over how facebook advertising could possibly violate fair housing laws. Have we really sunk this far from a position of free trade?



Mic

Saw this and thought of you



I need to ask. Why the two satellite antennas oriented towards ground?

Dude that’s seriously funny

Don't make me dig out Maxwell's equations on y'all.

Thats the Libra website if someone is wondering.

Hmm. Sure bout that? May be scam.

Evidence? My spidey senses are tingling.

Also, registrar (1api.net) is different than facebook's (registrarsafe.com). Why?

I think it will be less centralized then SV.

I fail to see what that has to do with whether or not the website listed above is really Libra's official site or rather an impostor, but certainly savor your snide snicker sideswipe.

Full disclosure: as day has worn on, I feel less alarm over the possibility than I did at first encounter.

They are reinventing the Tether scam. A crypto pegged to FIAT. Nothing to see here.

But one difference with Tether is that Tether is not a scam.  Tether is actually used (and that is why tether get's so much hate in the media, including gov'ts and financial institutions), as contrasted with the vast majority of the other allegedly "stable" coins.

Tether was fully backed by collateral deposits. Until it wasn't.

Tether was so not a scam. Until it was.

In regards to Tether, you are spouting out the mainstream media line too?  For what purpose?  Do you even understand what is going on in regards to the threat that tether seems to pose towards mainstream and that is largely fueling the misinformation and exaggeration campaign regarding it?

Do you work for bitfinex? You've been making excuses for them for years now.

They claimed they were fully capitalized. Until they were forced to admit they were not.

It's really not that hard to detect their dishonesty. I really don't need to point out anything more than that.

Bitcoin SV - is very stable and reliable cryptocurrency. Original Satoshi's Way

A cryptocurrency that experienced "block reorgs" is not reliable. Satoshi designed Bitcoin to be trustless and immutable.

'Block reorgs' are fully congruent with an immutable protocol, and the groundwork for them is explicitly contained within Bitcoin's protocol.

Umm, presumably you are aware that block reorgs occur upon BTC as well, right?

Except we don't really KNOW if it was really fully backed.

Agreed. Sorry for not adding an /s tag. Kinda my point, actually.

I find the participation of these nonprofits interesting:

Quote
Nonprofit

Women’s World Banking – uses a network of 40 independent micro-finance institutions and banks provide support to entrepreneurs in the underdeveloped world with an emphasis on women

Kiva – 501 non-profit organization that allows users to lend money to low-income entrepreneurs in over 80 countries through its platform

Mercy Corps – global humanitarian aid organization that provides support to regions hit by disasters, whether they be economic, environmental, social or political

Also the fact that both Uber and Lyft are onboard, but nobody else running 'the sharing economy' such as AirBnB, et al.

Sadly, not worth the time to read that. Terrible shitcoin.

Great summary!
And for the first time in history, (almost) everybody at bitcointalk will agree with Lauda  Grin

Terrible shitcoin? Sure.

Not worth the time to read? Are you fucking kidding me? Go ahead and wallow in your ignorance. Shitcoin notwithstanding, this Libra thingy is fairly likely to gain significant traction. As such, its very existence will impinge upon the public market perception of Bitcoin.

And frankly, Lopp's take (disclaimer: I've read his article, but have not read FB's source doc) seems like a useful distillation of several of Libra's aspects.

I mean, if you want to base your decisions from a position of ignorance, then knock yourself out. Wiser folk would at least try to garner a cursory understanding.

According to the technical White Paper there should be ways to remain "pseudonymous"

Quote
Account addresses.
The Libra protocol does not link accounts to a real-world identity. A user is free to create multiple
accounts by generating multiple key-pairs. Accounts controlled by the same user have no inherent
link to each other. This scheme follows the example of Bitcoin and Ethereum in that it provides
pseudonymity [19] for users.


1 Concretely we instantiate hash functions with SHA3-256 [17] and digital signatures with EdDSA using the ed-
wards25519 curve [18].
https://developers.libra.org/docs/assets/papers/the-libra-blockchain.pdf

Just because the permissioned protocol allows for pseudo-anonymity does not mean that the permissioned access points will not add identifying links.

You assume that these guys ever had any real skin in the game and weren't bought out by the BSV clan to shill for pocket change. Your assumption is bad. Wink

Your assertion is unsupported by any evidence. Perhaps you should be flagged as a liar that merely tears others down through spouting untruths.

Unless, of course, you have any evidence to back your claim. <-- hint, hint

Just like Samson  Roll Eyes

Are you baiting us with false equivalencies, jbreher?

What did Samson do to mislead BTC newbies? 

Provide a link or a decent explanation or it did not happen.

Settle down. Not that empty suit Mow.

So I found the next toy I want.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeyqT8fz2ro

Need some higher prices first, maybe it will be my 100k thing.

That's funny as all get out.

I can't imagine anyone using that thing for more than a few hours before smashing it into something though.
As a boater it looks absolutely fab. Depends what you are into. Also it's a two seater so, you know. And smash into what? Basic navigation is not hard.

From the video, it would seem that the most compelling maneuvers serve to completely obscure pilots vision - expansive canopy notwithstanding.
