However gold and other precious metals are not transparent. You'll never know if someone is producing gold in lab or what the limitation is - if someone is trying to make a double spend - it's possible for everyone to detect it. It's also more expensive to verify if a gold bar is real and pure.

Tor works without fees, because many people are relaying for free, however the system is extremely slow compared to VPN services, because without fees it allows for abuse of the system.

Apology accepted.

The 'promise' was limited to a balance of 0.01 BTC due to mass abuse and it costs more to keep it running so I'll close it.

Hello, I have the funds to pay everyone who has an outstanding payment - of course I won't pay people who came here more than once per 12 hours (via proxy, VPN, TOR) or people who are on blacklists.

I have no obligations to pay anyone, but I'll be paying. It's just not worth to run it any longer, because it costs a lot more than it makes.

I'm not. I'm the 1%!

What happened to clarkmoody.com? http://yandex.com/infected?l10n=en&url=bitcoin.clarkmoody.com

I'm not getting paid for anything I post here - or anywhere else. Do they offer something like that?
It's always your decision to buy something or invest in something - it always starts with a customer making a bad decision (e.g. investing in products of a brand new/unknown business). I also made some bad decision, but I tried to find consensus and got most of my BTC back.


As long as he/she is paying. And it seems you're asking others to file a lawsuit against BFL and publicly complaining about them rather than trying to get your money back → costs for a company (reputation/legal costs) > income: you're definitely not a king.


How do you know what they think? If more employees wanted to get paid in BTC and other companies they're working with did it, it would be possible, but right now most companies producing something need to have government money.


The future of bitcoin doesn't depend on them.


You want to get the same amount of BTC back and you're asking for that after the exchange rate increased a lot. For government issued money it's possible to do that, because it's being printed all the time, but paying with bitcoin and asking for a refund of the same amount is like asking to get your gold/silver back after the exchange rate increases. Could you make a company and handle this after Bitcoin goes up by >%500 ? I highly doubt it.

FTFY

I'm also watching my bank account balance, but this is more fun right now.

Relevant username.

Making money out of money without providing work, a service or a product is gambling (sometimes called speculation). Be careful with that - you'll be very annoyed if it doesn't work as expected.

Nachteile:
- automatisch wird Bitcoin damit stärker an instabile Währungs- und Handelssysteme gebunden.
- Die Website hat einen miserablen Ruf unter "normalen" Menschen.

Frag dazu lieber einen Anwalt. Ich denke mal, dass du vor allem in Schwierigkeiten geraten könntest, wenn du dabei auch noch Bezug auf illegale Aktivitäten nimmst, was einen Großteil der Geschäfte auf SR ausmacht.
Über Tor wissen gar nicht wenige Bescheid, allerdings wird es oftmals achtlos verwendet (selber Benutzername, selbe Bitcoin Adresse oder andere Dinge die Rückschlüsse auf die Identität zulassen) da viele Leute der Ansicht sind sie können ihr Gehirn abschalten wenn Tor läuft.

Ist bei mir nicht möglich, da ich keine Gewinne in Form von Euro mache, welche ich da angeben könnte. Finde auch keine Bitcoin Adresse an welche ich Steuern bezahlen könnte.

Source? (being paranoid is not a reliable source btw.)

You can never be sure that there's no flaw in a system - if you are: it's already flawed. And there's no such thing as a "perfect monetary" system. If you don't want wealthy people to buy your currency you basically need to find them and kill them, but that costs too much…

It doesn't make it completely free, but much cheaper and most importantly independent from price changes on electricity. Where's your cartel that is "giving away mining for free"? It doesn't exist. There's not a single bank that doesn't charge any fees. Make your cartel and see how "profitable" it is  

You don't realize that nobody can manipulate electricity prices if you produce it and in the long term it's cheaper in some parts of the world.

Why did you even mention other things if you didn't want to hear comments about them? Of course the risk of a 51% attack exists and building it up slowly is possible. I'd advise every miner who paid off the rig and is making some BTC now to invest them in something like photovoltaics (or anything else that produces electricity) to keep the risk of "going bankrupt" in mining at almost 0%.
