There is no such a list online, why don't we start creating one?

My anger against what is wrong in the Bitcoin community is productive:

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

"Bitcoin is the beginning of something great: a currency without a government, something necessary and imperative. But I am not familiar with the specific product to assert whether it is the best potential setup. And we need
a long time to establish confidence. I only talk from skin-in-the-game. If I had money in bitcoin, I would have reported it. But I don't yet. I am waiting to understand it better, not with my brain, but with my experience..." - Nassim Taleb

"There is no such a list online, why don't we start creating one?"

~cedivad

When is the Jalapeno getting FCC approval?

Maybe two weeks? We are waiting for the test lab to issue the test report.

With the bump in power requirements on the MR and the new screen, we had to make changes, although the new screen is already certified.  We are doing all the devices at once, since they all share the same board.

From the same guy...

So go on, lets see you find a lie.  You've yet to produce a single shred of proof for your assertions.  I look forward to seeing you flail about further.

"It might make sense just to get some in case it catches on. If enough people think the same way, that becomes a self fulfilling prophecy."

Satoshi Nakamoto, 2009 01 17


"MAGIC INTERNET MONEY"

FreeMoney, 2012 07 24


"Bitcoin’s a dollar bill, with a teleporter built in."

'We can just poke in a few coordinates and poof, off it goes, with the ease of posting to some forum somewhere. That’s somewhat new.
[...] But its real value proposition is as a medium for transfer.  It really works. And keep in mind, if we’re just holding the currency for a few minutes, we don’t care about the absolute value.'  

Dan Kaminsky, Wired contributor, 2013 05 03

"Hahahaha. ROTFL." - White House Economic Advisor Austan Goolsbee added this comment when asked to rate their confidence from 1 to 10 on the folowing question (he rated 10, strongly agree): A bitcoin’s value derives solely from the belief that others will want to use it for trade, which implies that its purchasing power is likely to fluctuate over time to a degree that will limit its usefulness.

Sorry to bump such an old thread, but here's one I really like.

“Bitcoin is a remarkable cryptographic achievement and the ability to create something that is not duplicable in the digital world has enormous value”
Eric Schmidt, CEO of Google



There's now a great website that lists some of the greatest quotes about Bitcoin and P2P trading systems that can be found here:

http://bitcoinquotations.com/

Using some of these quotes for an essay I'm writing. Couldn't be easier.
