Twitter update.

This is going to have bigger implications than we can imagine.

I think it's bad practice to post the address in this manner.  The link you provided should be sufficient.  W00T wikileaks!

Whoa. If you move around the letters in that address, it says "Too Many Secrets." Even more strange, it can also be rearranged to say "Setec Astronomy."

What does astronomy have to do with Wikileaks?

Oh god. Are they about to reveal something about alien life?

No, it doesn't.

There's not even a T in the address.

What the hell ever happened to all that dirt on Bank of America they were suppose to give us? My guess is that albino fucker made a deal to stay out of jail on those trumped-up rape charges.

I'm not donating to Wikileaks until they give us that data.  Taking down B of A is more important than Julian's lodgings. I'm just going to assume he's a sell-out until I see more evidence.

Heh, nobody is taking down the B of A. The government will just prop them up again.

WikiLeaks Threatens Its Own Leakers With $20 Million Penalty (about 1,000,000 BTC).

Wikileaks appears claim owership of all of their ill-gotten information. They are no longer an objective 3rd party, if they ever were.

yes I think we all hope that many leaking sites emerge and not all of them are led by charismatic dictators with a thing for getting press. that being said, wikileaks has already done a lot of good and will continue to do so in the future I have faith in that.

A bit. On the other hand, bitcoin is only starting to be taken seriously. Half a year ago the yearly income of Wikileaks foundation was more than Bitcoin's entire market cap.

Well, that just killed their chances of getting my donation.

Bitcoin is the ultimate freedom test. It tells you who is giving lip service and who genuinely believes in it.

In the future, books that summarize the history of money will have a line that says, “and then came bitcoin.” It is the economic singularity. And we are living in it now. - Ryan Dickherber

ATTENTION BFL MINING NEWBS: Just got your Jalapenos in? Wondering how to get the most value for the least hassle? Give BitMinter a try! It's a smaller pool with a fair & low-fee payment method, lots of statistical feedback, and it's easier than EasyMiner! (Yes, we want your hashing power, but seriously, it IS the easiest pool to use! Sign up in seconds to try it!)

The idea that deflation causes hoarding (to any problematic degree) is a lie used to justify theft of value from your savings.

I guess that's what they call Nerd Life. It's an arcane art. (in reference to them selling leaks)

I can't blame them for going more mainstream as long as they do not start censoring like the mainstream media in the US.

Time is money. This means that if you have spare time, you can use it to make money.

I remember someone posting about half a year ago (can't find the post now) that wikileaks decided to wait deliberately because accepting bitcoin too early would have endagered the still vulnerable currency.
