lol

this explains a lot:

I agree, I think we should be done with the bitcoin community. They are obviously a bunch of fools, and embrace the goodness that is Litecoin. Infact, we should probably integrate a feature in the litecoin client where it blocks anyone who has Bitcoin running or owns any bitcoin addresses! Smiley

Cryptowar for the future!!! Rawr!

Are you 11?

haha no, why?

Are you a pedophile?

Not you...

The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

Serious thread became unserious when you were outted as an litescammer. 

But seriously, I'm curious as to how you don't see that the only "success" LTC could hope for is to sink both BTC and LTC.

Litecoin will be very succesfull. Their windows only client that's not updated since February and has serious flaws that were already addressed on the Bitcoin client will take it sky high.

Very old and it advertises a litecoin wallet that was announced on June 8, 2012.

While that $2000 is most likely easy money for me, I don't want to take your money or humiliate you. I am just giving you a warning that you are treading in dangerous waters. Many people here are risking much higher sums than that every day. Whatever you want to take from this failed experiment, you should not put in any money that you cannot afford to lose!

Is this where I get to use the quote button?

  • Make a financial forecast
  • Take a stance using bets or financial instruments
  • Huh
  • PROFIT

Though I agree on one thing: don't put in more than you can afford to lose. That comes in automatically if you do the forecast correctly, but who does that in the first place? Tongue

But yea, Bitcoin is high-risk. Speculating on it is for people who like the idea. Cool

rjk, Bit-coin will fail at some point, I see no point in *not* having an address to sell any coins I may come into possession of. And thanks for the thought out post Vandroiy!

Bitcoin is a risky project and there is a high change that you will lose everything.

If I lose everything that I have today, I would honestly have to say that I've come out ahead overall over the past 2+ years.

Now that you've said your peace, I'll buy you out at $3 per and you can leave.

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank...sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

Nor can you correct rudeness and general crudity... In any case, I was wondering whether you think the ASICS will cause a problem for bitcoin and mining in general? I am myself very worried about mining being monopolized by a small but powerful group.

As bitcoin isn't about "printing free money!" I am not worried outside of the 51% attack scenario.  But, competition being what it is, I don't see the 51% situation likely.
