And that, Sir, is not slander, that is healthy skepticism and very public doubt concerning your integrity, and the veracity of this story.
No, everything you accuse me of therein is a lie. This degree of slander should really get you banned, IMO.

If you understood what "slander" is, instead of trying to use big words to express your indignation that somebody might actually question if the emperor is clothed or not, you would know that what I have stated is opinion, and a very public statement of a possible alternate background for what is going on in this circumstance. That is not, and never would be considered, slander. Your histrionics to the contrary, you have established a very significant body of work in this community, much of it laudable and to be commended, but tainted with dramatically poor impulse control. I will not divert this topic with a history of your embarrassing moments, but you are one of the very last people that should be casting any stones, your history is filthy with unethical behavior, diversion of others hashing power to serve your own agenda, and a diametric opposition to the spirit of open source when discussing evolution of the basis of this community.

And, you might want to check the TOS for this message forum before you begin to spout off about banning people who disagree with you, or dare to challenge your delusions of godhood. But then I guess "opinions" are just like assholes, everybody has one, and some are more full of crap than others.

What do you expect from a religious nutjob Roll Eyes

He once said LTC is a plot to take BTC from the fools. What if BTC is a plot to take USD from the fools  Cheesy

However, him killing CLC was a top job in my book and I respect him for killing that scam and BTC development.

How about a system where each bitcoin is valued based on how much you personally trust each person (wallet) that has ever held it? If everybody did this, that would make us a lot more discerning about who we dealt with, wouldn't it?

I'd like to see a situation where Bernie Bitoff may steal all the bitcoins, but they would not buy even one pair of alpaca socks.

Additionally, just because we have an anonymous service, doesn't mean we should primarily use it anonymously. The best members of this community reveal exactly who they are. The power of an anonymity service is that at any moment you could "go dark." However operating in the dark is a lot like being in an underwater submarine versus one that has been surfaced. Everything you do becomes a little more difficult.

It would be the death of Bitcoin (or any currency).

The currency would still be fungible for the set of all honest participants that only dealt with other honest people. Smiley

No, it wouldn't (just think about it for a minute.)

That's the whole problem with these sorts of proposals.

Bitcoin is the ultimate freedom test. It tells you who is giving lip service and who genuinely believes in it.

ATTENTION BFL MINING NEWBS: Just got your Jalapenos in? Wondering how to get the most value for the least hassle? Give BitMinter a try! It's a smaller pool with a fair & low-fee payment method, lots of statistical feedback, and it's easier than EasyMiner! (Yes, we want your hashing power, but seriously, it IS the easiest pool to use! Sign up in seconds to try it!)

The idea that deflation causes hoarding (to any problematic degree) is a lie used to justify theft of value from your savings.
