The more you believe in Bitcoin, and the more you show you do to other people, the faster the real value will soar!

You are talking like a century into the future so a simple extrapolation will probably end up being way off the mark. The dollar might not even exist at that point.

So what is going to be Gavin's CIA asset name?

Alpaca

Growth Curve Ball
Burning Man

Bitcoin combines money, the wrongest thing in the world, with software, the easiest thing in the world to get wrong.

lol, I think someone just discovered the first perpetual motion machine.  Good on you Gavin, by the way!  It's cool to know BitCoin is catching an eye or two at that level.  Tor-for-money!

Does anybody really think the CIA has any problem with fund transfers?  Don't you think they already have plenty of methods of doing that and that it's extremely unlikely that Bitcoin (with all due respect) has come up with something novel that surprises them and gives them some new capability that they simply don't have already?  Sounds farfetched to me.
Just because you have one or six methods of transferring money doesn't mean you can't use another. Especially a new one, that is decentralized, which means other groups cannot control it and most other govs won't be watching it.

I fail to see how this would work. What guarantee can the US gov't give that they couldn't immediately revoke as soon as it's convenient for them?

Exactly.  Any sort of effort to weaken Bitcoin is a Devil's bargain with them that's doomed to fail.

Assuming the federal reserve company still exists and us is still controlled through violence (read "presidency and governments") I believe this is fairly reasonable projection of how many us dollars will exist: us$100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.00

At that time it will cost about us$100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.00 to order a coffee at a restaurant.

No, he'll have to develop kidney failure and hide in Silicon Valley for 10 years evading detection.

Better to hang right outside of Langley .. seems the closer to those looking for you, the safer you are Smiley  Should be good for five years or so!

Of course you all realize that this topic is most likely definately read by CIA when writing all these anti-governments posts ?

I hope they realize they can use Bitcoin for their gains (the currency doesn't care who owns/uses it) and won't try to fight us right away.

Wait, you blocked him... in what sense?

You're not going to use Bitcoin anymore, since he is the primary developer?

I don't deal with traitors ..  imo anyone that willingly talks with criminal Nazis is a traitor to their race.

and I have no choice but to carefully screen the source for infiltrations now.
Compassion is needed. He needs your support and ours as well- dropping him, calling him names is not helping in any way. Except make some suspicious of his contributions which is quite positive maybe.

They might well attempt to suck one in with tiny little steps laced with excitement, glamour, patriotism, for the greater good spiel and more. He will not sell his soul out and I am positive this, and other events, are happening for the better; that we do not yet fully grasp or understand. Things have a way of turning out that will surprise us.

Never trust an Aussie!  (jk)

The country has a grand tradition of sticking it to authority, seeing as it was founded as a convict colony. Anyone who latched onto bitcoin as early as Gavin did must have head their screwed on correctly ...  but still would be good if he took a witness, 2ic, or similar for historical integrity.

Golly, journeyofrivers is really going to hate me when he finds out I'm an Elected Official and a Cog in the System.  Last night I voted to steal millions of dollars from taxpayers and give it to public (I know!  Terrible!) schools.

(I'm only barely an elected official, one of 251 elected Amherst Town Meeting members.  My punishment is long boring meetings late at night a couple times a year...)

Seriously, we probably agree on most things on a philosophical level.  I just believe I'll get farther by taking "small steps to a much better world."

How often do you get the chance to work on a potentially world-changing project?

Maybe .. but all I know of you is that you admit willingly going to the CIA ... that's immediate exile in my shit world.

I just believe I'll get farther by taking "small steps to a much better world."

Don't care .. my world has always sucked with flames of torment ... unbearable pain is -> and always had been my world ... so I could give a shit less ...

Why do u hate the cia so much? Did they kill ur mom or dad! What did they do to ur family?

The U.S. and prob the CIA prob killed a lot of people in my parents country of origin but I don't harbor any anger.  I could get philosophical but I'm not going to.

Cia got bin ladin.  Woot.

no .. I don't use fiat at all

I would love to do that. I tried looking at your web site, but it seems to be mostly blank.

I do not have anger towards anyone or thing (except maybe myself) .. I simply will not deal with pure negativity .. ie: anyone whom deals with governments or any of their corrupt facets.

I don't know about the rest of Earth .. but all North American Governments (and I think most others) are all corrupt in every way.  There is absolutely nothing legit about them, they are high treasonous criminals in every way.  Hence, I will not deal with them or those whom think they have ANY thing positive to contribute to society at all.

The very nature of their existences is to torture and enslave all live to their will and command at any cost ... any one who thinks this is a good thing is also a traitor OR simply NOT trust worthy to any degree.
