Ron Paul Atreides posted:wait, he used bitpay. But they say they got butts. The got dollars but returned butts because they don't have his bank account number, etc. Since the butt prize went up in the meantime they returned less butts to him. Had the prize gone down they would have returned him the exact amount of butts he paid and kept the dollar difference to themselves.

In other words, it's the typical libertarian "heads I win, tails you lose" type of deal they love so much. Just as intended!

"Satoshism posted:Satoshism is the world's first decentralized cryptographic monotheistic religion. Based on the written teachings and code of Satoshi Nakamoto, as presented in the Bitcoin Peer-To-Peer E-cash Paper, a document considered to be the verbatim word of Satoshi Nakamoto. Its adherents, known as Satoshis, believe that Satoshi Nakamoto is the digital embodiment of the Son of God, fully divine and fully digital, and the savior of humanity prophesied in the Old Testament. Adherents refer to Satoshi Nakamoto as the 22nd Century representation of the Messiah. The Bitcoin Peer-To-Peer E-cash Paper just doesn't have the same ring to it as the Bible or the Quran. fits nicely with Dianetics: the Original Thesis though Matlock Birthmark fucked around with this message at 00:48 on Nov 18, 2014 |

also from the fed auction thread, this comment got reddit gold [–]benjamindees 18 points 5 hours ago For those of you wondering how this can happen before a guilty verdict, unfortunately the court system in the US has almost universally become a sad joke, following the downhill path of the rest of the government. Soviet-style show trials are now a fixed feature of American "democracy", to go along with all the other heinous bullshit, torture and illegal wars, perpetrated by the US over the past decade. Ross Ulbricht is probably an actor or agent of some kind. The strategy of the US government obtaining Bitcoins and then dumping them in order to suppress the price was not difficult to predict. The same programme has been admittedly executed against precious metals for years. Please don't fall for the ruse of regulators pretending to be your friends. They aren't your friends. They think you're all domestic terrorists for wanting to control your own money. They want nothing more than to destroy Bitcoin or, at least, to cripple it into oblivion. And they have methods of doing so that the average person will never even recognize. This just happens to be one of them.

prefect posted:why would you have a name for exactly 52 units of currency? They have a hundreds upon hundreds of nicks for all sorts of arcane quantities of money. Is as if they were autistic or something. Also, apparently coffee, donuts, bagels and the like cost 25 cents. My favorite was one guy using one of the monikers by mistake and giving away 15 bucks (the max is 25) and then trying to get them back.
