RIGHT NOW we need to compete with visa, mastercard, paypal, and

"There you go again" - Ronald Reagan

Lying to try to make a point, that is. Show me more than one quote which supports your claim that bigblockers assert we need to scale to visa levels today.

I'm not going to go researching various post and get into some kind of parsing duel..

If you have been awake, you would have noticed plenty of these kinds of arguments being made over the past 6 months and even longer by a large number of XT/Classic supporters. 

No, the only time I have seen that stated is when the least honest of the smallblockers have been building a straw man to engulf in flames.

What are you talking about, I CARE! We've broken through the $450 electrical fence, we're free, fellow cattle!

The bitcoin market is a dump that is full of scavengers who didn't get the memo, that it isn't 2013 anymore.

Yeah, wateva, ether shill!
Bitcoin bull herd has broken free from Jewish meat packers (get your mind out of the gutter, statist stooge! I'm talking about the captive bolt terrorist genociding meat on the hoof sovereign cattle into delicious ground beef for their Saurian masters in bovine concentration camps).
We're starting a stateless cow society. Under the sea!

no, it's just this thread ... full of people just like you. The bitcoin market looks like it's thriving, it's impervious to scavengers like you, it's how it was designed, money attracts all kinds of thieves, fraudsters, low-lifes, the dregs of humanity and it has to work for them too or its useless, you're welcome.

Useless to thieves, fraudsters, low-lifes, that is. Otherwise nah, it doesn't. Welcome to the 21 century

wall st. has to have money that works for it also ... in fact the biggest thieves, frauds and low-lifes need the best kind of money it appears, how else are Jamie and Llyod going to hide their crimes?

... what you're dreaming of is a utopian concept but dystopian nightmare in reality.

...and that's why zero fucks are given about bitcoins and BTCeanies.

What are you trying to say? That they should hook up with BitcoinKing72 behind the liqueur store and buy a few billion bucks worth of beancoin? 
I'm afraid beetcoin also fails as a criminal's currency, because shit anonymity

Lol, not quite: "The distributed ledger used for Bitcoin is a public ledger that can be read from or written to by anyone who wishes to transact, making it an ideal vehicle for public transactions between individuals"
Nice try tho

meh, GS and their misguiding analysis.
bitcoin is not about public, nor transaction.

bitcoin is about privacy and holding up the only safe asset left in the world.

Sometimes bitcoin is about transactions. Here's an example of bitcoin entrepreneurs price-discovering the value of their disruptive services in free market space:

Ransomware attackers refuse to decrypt hospital's files after being paid off

"Negotiating with criminals doesn’t always work out, as Kansas Heart Hospital in Wichita learned last week. The hospital paid to get files back after falling victim to ransomware, but only got “partial access” and a demand for more money, Techspot is reporting.

That’s right: the criminals got their ransom, and then decided they wanted more money. The hospital’s president, Dr. Greg Duick says the hospital is not paying up."

[marcus_of_augustus]

It's a brave new world ... organisations who have become dependent upon mission critical IT infrastructure should pay for better IT security and if they don't even understand what that means they should pay someone who knows to help them out ... instead of playing victim after demonstrating willful negligence.

There are powerful, determined government intelligence agencies intentionally undermining computer systems security and wantonly leaving holes and 'backdoors' open for all kinds of nefarious actors to exploit so if hospitals/schools/police/city-hall/courts/etc haven't got their systems locked down tight and backed up they are going to fail in one way or another.

How about you scumbags just stop extorting hospitals before you get a jackboot up your ass, to demonstrate your willful negligence in securing it?
How would that be?
