thanks for the link

I find it quite hilarious that the person who was against Bitcoin's qualifications were to the extent that he "made a youtube video series about not buying into Bitcoin."
also when she screwed up and said that Roger from Memory dealers is the  CEO of the largest Bitcoin company in the world? hahahaha


lmao

I don't mean that at all, sorry Roger has been on these forums for a long time it was just humorous to me to hear him referred to as the CEO of the worlds Largest Bitcoin company!

which was a mistake, I believe she was talking about Bitinstant which he does marketing for or something, and I am not even sure Bitinstant is the "largest"

what was with her joke about her being the only Girl there? did I see her on the Girls of Bitcoin reddit board Wink

Lol, "largest"
Largest volume? MtGox/Silkroad
Most transactions? SatoshiDICE
Most company members? BitInstant (?)
Biggest deposit taker? Bitcoin Savings & Trust

hilarious: that host doesn't know how to say "financier" and thinks conventional money is backed by gold and silver.

I thought it was a very good round table! Even the anti stuff was quickly squashed.

My personality type: INTJ - please forgive my weaknesses (Not naturally in tune with others feelings; may be insensitive at times, tend to respond to conflict with logic and reason, tend to believe I'm always right)

yeah, I'd like to have seen demurrage discussed more deeply (not because I think it's a good idea, but because I think it can't work), but maybe these forums are a better place than a mainstream tv format with a (deliberately) dumb blonde.

Still true: nice round and good to see more mainstream coverage. It could've at least been longer, though.

just managed to watch it to the end... that blonde really cracks me up:

Quote from: roger ver
<roughly quoted> the government can't shut down bitcoin unless they hsut down every single computer on the internet, it's mathematically impossible.

Quote from: blonde
*pounds table, screachy voice* THIS IS FASCINATING! *puts hand to head* I don't understand! I don't understand.

I really do think fundamentally understanding how bitcoin works is necessary to be able to trust it.

That is a very good point. In my experience people definitely trust Bitcoin more when they understand it better.

That is a very good point. In my experience people definitely trust Bitcoin more when they understand it better.

The problem is that you need to understand several different areas fairly well in order to get the complete picture:

- P2P networks
- Code and Open Source
- Cyrptography
- Economics
- Law
- Markets

And I'm probably missing a few.
