Any idea how long ago this was introduced into google? I just stumbled upon it while checking some currency ratios:



It has a price chart (not very detailed but anyway) and realtime conversion to other currencies.... nice.

~2 years ago.

My response here will largely focus on your last two sentences, because your earlier responses appear to be technical avoidances  in the form of quasi-non-sensical ad hominem attacks.
*nonsensical
Dear idiot:
Ad hominem reasoning is often quite appropriate:
"Ad hominem reasoning is not always fallacious, for example, when it relates to the credibility of statements of fact or when used in certain kinds of moral and practical reasoning.[3]" --wikip
But when a buffoon such as yourself is called a buffoon, it is not ad hominem reasoning, simply a statement of fact.

But not free credit, like legacy CC, oh no...
I would like to inform you that legacy CC is not free.  Surely, costs are spread out in various kinds of ways, but in essence cause costs upon merchants that are inevitably going to get built into consumer prices.  

Since your "innovative service" doesn't offer any discounts -- merely ropes in more marks into using Bitcoin with its usurious bitcoin loans (Psst, Kid! The first one's free!), its usurious interest rates are doubly usurious due to being charged *on top of the hidden costs already a part of the legacy finance (CC).
There's a special circle in hell for that sort of thing Angry

loans with [no doubt usurious] interest.

This statement goes to show that you are guessing, and you do not know any details.  < snip >
Of course I'm guessing, it's called an educated guess. I'll repeat:
"Every Bitcoin loan ever: Bitcoin Forum > Economy > Marketplace > Lending. Shameless, greedy fucks exploiting their fellow degenerate gamblers bitcoin enthusiasts.
The sort of shit that brought about usury laws in the civilized legacy finance world Sad"

If you would like to argue that the rates are not going to be usurious (this innovative Bitcoin lending service is going to be completely unlike the rest of innovative Bitcoin lending services, which is to say "won't rape people up the butt"), you're making an extraordinary claim, and, as such, the burden of proof is yours Sad

O.k. "usurious middlemen."  I'm not sure how you arrived at that conclusion.

It seems to me that Western Union can be a bit usurious,
Western Union doesn't lend money.

Quote
but even some of these mainstream institutions have been offering some more competitive rates based on some of the low to no fees of bitcoin remittances, surely bitcoin has barely made a dent in the payment remittance market.
Your insanity is making you type annoying nonsense again.
Either that, or you don't understand the difference between lending money and sending money. WTF is wrong with you?  

Quote
Furthermore, sometimes, the first innovations may be more usurious than others until more and more competition evolves.  If people have bitcoin options, they can compare those to their other options and decide whether or not to use the service.  If it is the best rate that they can get, then it could potentially be usurious, no?  Is that what you are saying?
I'm saying "Bitcoin, the "be your own bank" currency, created to eliminated the usurious middlemen and escape the spiral of debt slavery ...creates a new bankster class, who go on to rope in new users by offering them credit. But not free credit, like legacy CC, oh no... loans with [no doubt usurious] interest."
Which part do you not get?

Thanks for your smartass contribution, Bargainbin.

Would we label this post as a forum of desperate trolling, when you attempt to describe the beneficial (and likely even the bullish) offerings of one small company as a kind of negative?  

I would categorize this proposed BitPagos service as innovative, and we will witness the extent to which some companies are going to make money off of these kinds of services and potentially reaching segments of the currently underserved populations who may not be able to easily get small loans from traditional institutions.  

Interesting times ahead. Cool

Well, let's see... Bitcoin, the "be your own bank" currency, created to eliminated the usurious middlemen and escape the spiral of debt slavery ...creates a new bankster class, who go on to rope in new users by offering them credit. But not free credit, like legacy CC, oh no... loans with [no doubt usurious] interest.

Yup.


This is why women were never allowed in the political process for thousands of years.  Each one in the picture is basically just a large, naive child, but women never actually grow out of this.  They could be 16 or 30, it doesn't matter.  You may as well allow 10 year olds to vote and witness the devastation that occurs afterwards.

That is right. Only in the so called democracies. That´s their plan.

You try to bring them up right, instill some decency, wholesome values... Sad

I guess my point is "potential intelligence" is like Libertarian's "value" (as in "Bitcoin is a store of value") -- only meaningful until you try to define it.

By "potential intelligence" I simply mean the range of intelligence available within the group. It doesn't seem to differ between human racial groups, but it differs a lot when you compare a human to an orangutan. All humans (except maybe small-blockers) will register in a completely different range than the orangutan.

"Potential intelligence" = "range of intelligence available within the group" is a poor definition of "potential intelligence," for several reasons.
1. The word "potential" implies ...well, potential, as in "possibility of becoming something." Your definition appears to evaluate the actual intelligence within the group.
2. "Intelligence" is left undefined. Before we can go on to evaluate X ("range of [X] available within the group", or even "potential [X]"), we must know what it is that we are evaluating. ( Roll Eyes arguments of why IQ tests are ethnocentric/anthrocentric go here)

But let's get ahead of ourselves and, without defining what "potential intelligence" is, figure out how "all groups have identical potential intelligence" proposition could be proven/disproved. Since can't a priori, have to resort to messy empiricism & do this:



I doubt we did, because just no.
I guess my point is "races are equal" is just the B-side of eugenics.

No. Evolution has stopped in humans.

Onoes, disheartening! Are we sure it was ever a thing?

MINDFUCK ALERT: Lambe The Creationist

Just wondering what it was that "has stopped in humans." And why.
BTW, the Pope is illegitimate.

P.S. Appears this thread's getting purged Sad

Genetic material doesn't decide if you get to live and breed.

Natural selection is not a thing in modern human society.


Genetic material doesn't decide if you get to live and breed? But ...it did once? What changed?
Are you saying that intelligence plays no part in securing a mate, while ...back in Africa, it did?
That "natural selection" means getting mauled by lions & tigers but not, say, "investing" in Bitcoin & dying with a bottle of Mad Dog behind Walgreen's dumpster?
So many questions...

I guess my point is "potential intelligence" is like Libertarian's "value" (as in "Bitcoin is a store of value") -- only meaningful until you try to define it.

Stop quoting other one's text....NOOB. Every idiot can copy/paste text and try to be smart, Lambie is a freaking NOOB....like always.
