-- The Riddle of the Twin Brothers - Who Were, Are and Will Rule the World!

[Spoetnik]

I seen a guy explaining to the News why he was leaving from Iraq
and he said he wanted to leave for many years now and the tipping point was he said he was seeing
a good response from a couple other countries on accepting them
he then said he found tips online on how to raft it etc
he said he left his wife and kids behind to get later and it makes sense.. it would be dumb to float in a raft on the ocean with them.
especially if you could go elsewhere and get a job and send them a plane ticket etc.

I don't see any conspiracy.. I see opportunity.
All these guys are looking for an excuse to go to the great and wonderful USA or what ever so they will take the opportunity when it arises.
but I would say to them.. the grass is a bit greener on the other side.
the News guy I seen said he was making about $500 or $600 a month and all of it going to rent.
Here in my town in Canada he's going to end up doing the same damn thing.
For example my old Apartment landlord was a Nuclear Plant Electrician now he's an apt. maintenance man / rent collector for free rent.
greener grass.. refugee's

and Vlad your always a bit conspiracy theory'ish but that one is too wild for me man LOL

Where in Canada are you, I'm heading there tonight to pick up a car from my brother.  He's in Vancouver I think.

You could be right about that, the truth could be that simple.

But if you look at a lot of the refugees, they're actually coming in safely by trains.  I would agree that a dangerous trip like coming by raft would make sense to not bring the wife and kids.  I know when my dad's friends were escaping the eastern bloc communists they would have to swim cross the Danube.  Most would get shot by the guards or died drowning or get thrown back over by the Serbians and end up in death labor camps so I know what that's like, where only the stronger men will make a run for it, but I don't think that's the case here right now.

I find it interesting that now all of a sudden Europe is on lockdown - the borders are being closed from what I read today.  I'm sure that includes TSA-like measures [PAPERS PLEASE!!!]. 

Exactly like we have in America where supposedly the borders are sealed to protect us against terrorists but if you use your brain you'll realize the borders are sealed from the inside - terrorists can come in by the millions while Americans can't leave their own country without being molested and have even their intestines inspected for "bombs".  A sure way in my opinion to make sure nobody will sneak out gold or other assets when Marshall law does happen.  And oh, one more fact the sheep don't think about - in the ear decade since the TSA has been fingering my poopie hole, they have not caught or stopped a single terrorist attack.  Hahaha.

Anybody ever wonder why these terrorist cells don't just pack a bus full of cow shit and drive it through a mall on Christmas Eve, costing the US economy tens of billions with a simple act or terrorism?  How hard is that?  Islam, The religion of peace blows up buildings and kids' school buses in Israel on a weekly basis so I wonder why they NEVER do that in the US.  Let's face it - not even those backwards idiots are stupid enough to mess with the US - yet the masses in the US really don't have even the most basic deductive reasoning capabilities.

Too much weed, porn and football.  lol

So just like that we have the US and now Europe with sealed borders (from the inside) and the idiot public now ready to accept any crazy law "for their own protection". 

Mark my words, when the US goes into Marshall Law mode - Europe will follow, and if that happens we're gonna see the biggest "cleansing" the West has ever seen.  The number of mass murders will put Hitler's death camps to shame.

The sad fact is that the West is jam packed with what the elite call "eaters".  It's hard to feel sorry for dumb sheep who bring destruction on their own heads.

Andreas is talking out of his ass again:

"You cannot control money that is information." – Andreas Antonopoulos

Digitized money which also happens to be trackable is the wet dream of total government and bank control over the masses.  It is control defined.

Seriously, do you have to be a genius or a programmer to understand the simple fact that digitized money is code and code can be infinitely more easily controlled than anonymous paper money?

Why is this this shill still speaking?  I know who is promoting him and opening all his doors, but this is getting ridiculous.

[dadingsda]

I bet one could write code that would track all bitcoin transactions to the original wallet addresses and create a database.

I bet someone already did....

Correct.

They also have a drone now which can track your Bitcoin wallet location via wifi networks.  Hahaha.  How's that's for anonymous and decentralized?

Can you imagine a drone being able to track you by the $20 bill in your pocket?  lol

Scrap Cash Altogether says Bank of England Chief Economist.

Having already decided to cast paper notes aside in favour of plastic, the Bank of England’s chief economist has proposed getting rid of cash altogether.
For many, the idea of abandoning a system that has been with us for centuries in favour of a government-backed digital currency will seem a step too far. But Andy Haldane, the radical thinker at the BoE, argues that such a move would give the bank new flexibility in the event of another downturn.

[NOTE:  "Flexibility" means negative rates to the tune of negative 6%+ so you will pay the banks to make money off your money.  According to Andreas that's helping out the ~5 billion unraped, err, unbanked].


Mr Haldane added, "using technology similar to that embodied in Bitcoin."  Then adding, the challenge of course is getting the masses to accept it.

Bankster Roundtable [post crash] circa 2008:


Newbie Bankster: We need negative rates now and we need to confiscate trillions from pension funds to pay for all our bad choices but how how can we get billions of people to give up a real and anonymous currency and freely accept a trackable digital currency with ZERO intrinsic value and which will NEVER leave the blockchain resulting in total control by the banks and government allowing instant confiscations via negative interest rates, bail-ins, etc.

Veteran Bankster aka Satan: Oh, maybe we can hype the shit out of a worthless coin by transferring trillions from pensions in it and have a bunch of shills running around telling everyone that banks and governments are terrified of it and hate it.

Newbie Bankster:  "No way, that would never work, people aren't that stupid."

Veteran Bankster aka Satan: "Kill the fed!  Kill the fed!  Kill the fed!"

The Bankster Collective:  Bahahahaaaaa.



I wasn't on the room that day but I'm pretty sure that's how it went down.  haha!

Still not convinced bankers and govt have taken over Bitcoin?

What about BitGold? 

What about Soros?

What about Soros and BitGold? 

What about Soros, Bitcoin and gold?  haha.


Innovative financial services platform raises $3.5 Million led by PortVesta Holdings, PowerOne Capital, and Soros Brothers Investments - launching a Trusted, Limited Third Party platform to advance secure, global cooperation in the Internet of Money.

BitGold Inc. (“BitGold or The Company”), is pleased to announce the closing of a Series-A Financing. The Company has raised $3.5 million in advance of a Q1-2015 platform launch. BitGold is a consumer-focused internet platform offering free global payments combined with unprecedented access to secure, redeemable gold for savings. The Company raised angel financing from its co-founders Roy Sebag and Josh Crumb in early 2014, allowing for the development and acquisition of key intellectual property and proof of concept. BitGold’s Series-A financing round included investments from PortVesta Holdings, Soros Brothers Investments, PowerOne Capital, Sandstorm Gold, and other leading financial service professionals.


That's right, sheep.  You know if Soros is nuts deep in Bitcoin that it's a new game and the sheep are in-play.

Not much time left to buy your [Bitcoin] ticket.

But what will you do with the profits - it's all gonna be stuck in the Blockchain. 

That's the cruel irony of Bitcoin.

[Nasakiotoes]

On May 29, 2015 Goldmoney founder James Turk responded to Dominic Frisby:

BitGold is not a “bitcoin company” – if you need a comparison, it is much more “PayPal” than “bitcoin”, but BitGold can be better understood as a “digital gold” company, which of course is what GoldMoney invented and patented.
There exists vast potential for changing online payments, and in my view, BitGold has the right people and resources to take advantage of this potential to the benefit of its customers and shareholders. ...

Importantly, the opportunity to change online payments exists, notwithstanding your concern that metal payments years ago never took off. Nor for example, did ATMs, which existed for many years before bank customers finally understood their many benefits. The point is that customer adoption in financial services often comes slowly; it is a natural response because people do not want to take risks with their money. ...

In 2013, I retired as chairman of GoldMoney, but have remained a member of the board. Once this transaction closes, I will join the BitGold board with two fellow GoldMoney directors, Hector Fleming and Mahendra Naik.

Bitcoin:  A currency by the people for the people?

Bahahahaaa.   <------ I'm so tired of Bahahaaa-ing. 

Coinbase just joined the Banksters and Government in Hijacking Bitcoin.

What can possibly go wrong with these patents?

Please note:  These patents ONLY apply to BankerCoin, err, Bitcoin.

More reason than ever for a competing coin to take over Crypto-world by iXstorm.

See what I did there?  lol

Enjoy:


Bitcoin exchange Coinbase, Inc. has taken what could be at mildly best described as an interesting move by filing patents for many of the key aspects of the current existing Bitcoin marketplace.
The number of filings by Coinbase with the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) come to nine and include:


- Hot wallet for holding Bitcoin

- User Private Key Control

- Bitcoin Private Key Splitting for Cold Storage

- Instant Exchange

- Personal Vault

- Send Bitcoin to Email Address

- Bitcoin Exchange

- Tip Button

- Off-Blockchain Transactions in combination with On-Blockchain transactions

Since all of those things are long known ideas surely the patents must be rejected, there is nothing new in them...

I doubt Coinbase is just wasting time.  Don't underestimate the power of money.  Less than 1% adoption is not considered widespread use.  Remember how eBay (I think) patented reverse auctions when it was supposed to be a commonly used thing?  I wouldn't be surprised to see Coinbase get most of these patents.

[Nasakiotoes]

Remember this one?

13 massive multi national banks are now pushing BlockChain technology [into the mainstream], up from 9 banks just ~2 weeks ago.

Do you guys think these banks want to see Bitcoin succeed so that the masses will be eager to accept something digital and traceable on place for something "real" with some intrinsic value and which is at least partly anonymous?

Yes, the more banks [governments and multi national corporations] that jump on the BlockChain bandwagon the more certain the COIN ETF becomes and in my opinion it is a done deal, an absolute certainty, just like I have been saying from day one.

[Vlad2Vlad]

Andreas just let another doodoo come out of his mouth, saying that right now there are 50 crypto coins which have an intrinsic value worth less than goat shit.

50?  Really?

Has he personally tasted nearly 1,000 ShitCoins to see which ones have the taste of goat shit?  Greeks are pretty hard up for money right now but chomping on "goat raisins" is a new low even for our Andreas.  lol

  

What intrinsic value does Bitcoin have compared to say Litecoin, Nuggets or ShitCoin?

They all have the same exact intrinsic value:  ZERO!  This is now a FACT which nobody with half a brain can dispute at this point and this was one more simple fact for which I was called crazy back in 2013.

This was a nice lie to tell a couple years ago but to still shill this bit today is as silly as still lying about how Bitcoin is anonymous.  That's so like 2013.   Haha.

And oh, one of my all-time [Roger Ver] favorites:  "Bitcoin will ALWAYS have only 21 million coins - forever and ever and ever and ever cause God himself hard-coded: 'Max Supply 21,000,000' in stone with His own hand." Hahaha!

[prophetx]

coinbase is probably in need of more money and need to look attractive to investors and hence they told their product managers and legal folks to make up some patents to look good for the SV money people.

we also did this when we were raising money, we were going to patent JSON... lol

in any case if you truly believe in p2p economy then patents are irrelevant

That's a possibility. 

Also consider this, apparently, Coinbase applied for those patents 18 months ago.  I think the odds of them getting them approved just increased significantly.

I'm surprised Vlad hasn't talked about the Orlando IX 2015 convention which has been going on. It'd be a great thing to claim partnership with, even if it's just a huge coincidence.

If somebody didn't know any better one might believe that the IX in a circle is ixcoin's logo.

I mean, just look at that. Looks like a great event. Maybe if there's an Orlando IX 2016 Ixcoin could be a payment option.

I've never heard of it.  It looks like a tech convention - nothing to do with money but I wonder what the iX stands for in their case.  Thanks for pointing that out, it would be cool to partner up with any innovative high tech leaders.
