I recommend drinking something that promotes good blood flow to the hind quarters. ;p

If you're not excited by the idea of being an early adopter 'now', then you should come back in three or four years and either tell us "Told you it'd never work!" or join what should, by then, be a much more stable and easier-to-use system.

I wish I had as many BTC as my post count.

Yeah, me too.


"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."

- Carroll Quigley, CFR member, mentor to Bill Clinton, from 'Tragedy And Hope'

But on that note, wouldn't it be interesting if someone devised a forum where you have to had 1 BTC for every post you made?  You wouldn't have to send it to anyone, just prove that you had it, either by sending a particular token amount of BTC from that address (i.e. 0.0004857), or by signing a message with the private key associated with it.  Then, if your post count is 10, and you only have 10 BTC at that address, you can't make another post until you put more BTC into that address.

I wonder if the quality of posts would rise if such a system were implemented?

So you would have to delete posts in order to cash out?

No, posts could stay even if you wanted to cash out, you'd just have to make sure to fund the account again if you wanted to make any new ones.

Also, this is the only drinking suggestion. Sad I guess I'll have to be a teetotaler if no one is going to provide any suggestions.

Grin As if.
