All you could buy with bitcions was spongebob stickers, stamps, and pencils. Now you can choose from 60,000 books. I'm glad people have gained confidence in this. I lost confidence in Bitcoins and deleted my wallet but now I'm ready to start generating them again.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

You could have a nice bit of money now, if you stayed then. Wink

Yeah, I really regret it but I guess I added some value through deflation by deleting the good sum I had.

Worth trying 'undelete'.

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank...sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

The market for Spongebob stickers is even more reasonable now.

Did you had that wallet on a hdd you use a lot?
Maybe a tiny chance you can recover it?

But damned, could you imagine how much you could have minted in the past year?
I wished I had discovered bitcoin a year ago, but maybe I would have done the same thing and banged my head against the wall a year later.  Cheesy

I've already formatted and partitioned this hard drive several times. It would take a miracle to get anything back. Tongue

Oh, it would be better to send it to freebitcoins.appspot.com.
Another way to get rid of the money is to use -paytxfee switch.
For example, add in the shortcut -paytxfee=x.yy with some value.
And someone who will generate the next block will get that fee. Wink
