"My thoughts on Bitcoin and the other currencies is that they ought to be legal unless there is fraud involved. The government should not get involved in regulating private money if there is no fraud. I do not take a position on Bitcoin and other proposed currencies in a technical fashion, but I understand the political ramifications of them and I think that government should stay out of them and they should be perfectly legal, even though I don't endorse (technically) one over another."

very cryptocoin friendly stance

ok

Ron Paul says the government should stay out of stuff. There's a surprise.

How is that related to the price of Bitcoin?

Either way is Ron Paul still a thing?

Positive zero and negative zero don't exist.

For 0, the sign bit is supposed to be ignored.

The number 0 is usually encoded as +0, but can be represented by either +0 or −0.

So, there are two possible representations of one single object.

No but we have the same effect on the price of Bitcoins.

Perhaps I need to become a cult leader and then claim to be Ron Paul, hmm. MucusologyTM

He's somewhere between 75 and 150 years old. If he were elected president today he would probably die in office from alzheimer's.
