Internet had not been invented then. Nobody would be using them as they do today

People are really running out of ideas about Bitcoin stuff to talk about.

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.

Well or maybe we are just starting to have better ideas about what to talk about Smiley

I am spending ~10 hours daily @Bitcointalk and I see we are talking about so so many different things and topics to talk about will never finish Wink

Aren't there some books you could be burning somewhere? Why come to the internet to censor communication, where we will all just laugh at and mock you?

Would the Germans have been able to pay off the fines levied after the Treaty of Versailles in bitcoin?

Or would they have been allowed to create their own cryptocurrency and pay off the debt that way?

People like to blame Hitler for World War II because it is convenient, but the roots of the conflict arose from the mis-handling of the Treaty of Versailles and punitive crippling economic sanctions imposed by the victors in 1919. There might have not been the possibility of a "Hitler"-type character in Germany in the 1930's had the previous war been settled correctly and a stable Germany recovered from the defeat.

First of all, they would have need the PC and internet to have bitcoin taken off.  Without the World Wid Web, nothing would have been possible unless we had Voice Currency.

I agree! That's my entire point! "crippling economic sanctions" -> crippling for the German PEOPLE -> if the people had a way to totally avoid that crippling economy, by divesting their wealth from their nation's fiat (read: fake) money into global crypto, don't you think they would have done so?

We certainly would today. Many smart people are doing exactly that, as I write this.

@Beliathon- we are definitely on the same page with this!

Anything that prevents tyrants, whether they be a single dictator, or a dictatorial tyrannical government, is worthwhile.

Bitcoin could ndot have existed in 1930 so this thread is entirely pointless.

How in the Hell do I get the "unwatch" feature to work?

Nothing I try seems to affect things.

How bitcoin could stop Hitler and the second World War?  Cheesy
Make no mistake, this technology will help humanity transcend the need for both bloody revolutions and bloody wars.

It is absolutely a step in the right direction, away from the dominance of the nation-state and toward empowering the individual.
