Why is this thread still not locked ?
Bloody scammer
Scammer or not, it's for the community to decide and police it. The forum's policy is to monitor the basics such as spam, off-topic threads, not scams. |

This is a libertarian type forum. The main idea of it's management is the least possible interaction in other's people affairs. So get used to it.
But that doesn't have to mean complete lawlessness. Here where the decentralization aspect comes in - the community should cope with and police it by themselves. True and I agree, but as with 'policing' disputes etc, this also sometimes doesn't work out or isn't enough. Why? Angry mobs usually make sure of punishment. Vigilante mobs also often end up attacking the wrong person. Governments often make mistakes as well and they can "make mistakes" for people who don't like them. True, but again I refer you my post above, but no system is perfect. Well, if no system is perfect then why not leave it without any system like now?  its one of best suggestions here we have to leave this without any policy and enjoy this Really? Complete lawlessness? Just people scamming and spamming left right and centre? I'm a Libertarian Socialist (some may say that's Anarchism), but I don't believe in this sort of anarchy. Not complete lawlesness, the community members deal with scammers. That's why the trust rating exists. |

I have not received any credit on my primedice account when will I receive the advertised 0.002?
Stunna said in another thread that he's been busy but will get around to it ASAP. I think he mentioned he'll get around to it tomorrow. |

This is definitely a problem.
But I think if someone had 10,000 TH on his own, he'd prefer to mine Bitcoin and get half of every single coin produced, right?
So it's possible to destroy the network but most people wouldn't do it. There's a far better way to use their hashing power.
Yeah, some owners of banks might even be mining secretly and investing their cash in BTC. Besides if Bitcoin was destroyed, people woild pass on to another cryptocoin, if it gets destroyed - onto another, and so on, so forth. I still think their is some competion in the banking and hedgefund world, I think there are a bunch of bank CEO's thinking like, "How can we make money with bitcoin ? can we become a bitcoin bank ? can we maybe fractional reserve bank bitcoin ? ) I dont think the financial sectora as a whole is against bitcoin, im sure some wanna embrace it, for they own profit naturally. I agree I doubt they would destroy BTC when it is another avenue to be exploited for them to make money. Well bank owners own banks not to help people, that's for sure. Wasn't the flaws of the banking system one of the reasons cryptocurrency was born? |

If someone with power decides you can't do something you just can't because you are inferior and have to obey. lmao What are you even talking about. Depends on the country, but America is a Democratic Republic, not a tyranny. Yeah, but laws get enforced and if you don't obey, you get fined, jailed or otherwise punished. Just in a democratic country you can start a petition and if you gather enough signatures they might change the law. Not every law is enforced. There's a difference. They are enforced if you disobey it. Depends on whatever crime or violation they find you doing. And if they even find you doing it. People get away with things every day The case of finding out the crime is strongly hinten upon in my posts. Also, they might not catch you, but they may uncover evidence leading to you. You guys really believe in democracy? There's no real democracy, you're just dancing to their music. It's worked pretty well so far So that's why marijuana is illegal? Because the people want it to be? I could name countless instances of governments acting against the majority of voters in so called "democratic countries" You elect them. If you want politicians who would agree to legalize marijuana, elect those kind of politicians. |

Exactly right, CPU mining was removed from the client. Even the fastest CPU is completely useless for BTC mining.
Unless you are mining on a public computer, for which you don't pay: neither for the hardware, nor for the software. |

No one has actually answered the OP's original question. Do the FBI actually have the private keys and the ability to transfer the Bitcoins they have seized?
Also, whoever thinks the FBI weren't going to try and shut down the Silk Road obviously had no idea what they were selling on there. Pot was definitely not the issue.
They have the private key but they can't legally spend it. If he Ross was convicted (or if he already was, I'm really lazy to google it), it would be sold to the highest bidder on an auction or something like that. i'll start the bidding at 0.056 bitcoins You have to physically participate in the auction and bet fiat, specifically US dollars. |

all that stuff will eventually work itself out. and morals will *ALWAYS* win lol now that's just funny  But anyways, no one says you can't enjoy herb, just buy it the old fashioned way like most people do. Plus the legality of it is slowly becoming diminished as more states Decriminalize it so you shouldn't worry in the first place if you want to smoke bud Well, I think you should wait until it's decriminalized legal where you buy it or consume it. definitely. wait. no not decriminalized. but perfectly legalized. getting caught is NOT what i'm worried about. it's the fact that it's ILLEGAL in the first place. making me question WHY? is it because if i use it the girl of my dreams won't like me?? probably. this is why i choose to wait :/ Yeah, sorry for my choice of words. I meant legal. |

Stop looking at any Bitcoin charts other than the weekly view.
Why? If you didn't invest much into bitcoin, you shouldn't get more stressed. |
|
|

Dont look at btc graphs, or any mainstream news on BTC. That def wont help stress. Far to many people reading/graph watching and causing panics.
Go outside and feel the grass between your toes is a great stress reliever.
I actually feel relief when watching those graphs. Also, the grass is rotten here due to lots of rain. Actually where I live it's supposed to be a cold winter with lots of snow.  |

I didn't know there were restrictions in naming your child... good to learn Why don't you become a porn star and make money that way.
Well that's every man's dream job but HOW? You need a monster cawk first of all and you need to last like 30-40 mins..... with the things these hot porn girls do I don't think I'd be able to last more than 10 mins Is it? My dream job is to become an astronaut. That was my dream job too but we're not 10 yrs old anymore... Have you seen Gravity? you don't wanna go through that shit I am ten years old. I'm saving my pocket money and Bitcoins to go on Virgin Galactic. And I've not seen Gravity but I'm looking forward to it. Are you joking? You sound a lot more mature than 10 especially around here.  Hahaha, of course I'm joking . But I'm glad I seem more maturer than a ten-year-old . Your welcome. That's kind of how my most compliments come out. |

Depends on your state laws, weed is slowly becoming more accepted and that's fine by me.
But if you were a responsible adult, you wouldn't need to smoke weed to find satisfaction in life.
Yeah, you can relax while gaming. gaming gives me headaches. anything with 3D.. and candy crush sucks. i prefer TV and mining Candy crush ain't gaming, it's a time waster. Skyrim, CS:GO, CS 1.6, BF4 and so on is. |
