 bitcoin strives to be a good option for the unbanked by taking the form of a product that nickels and dimes those who can't or won't get a bank account. but with bitcoin. TVarmy fucked around with this message at 03:03 on Mar 26, 2015 |

Crazy Achmed posted:Wait, what the gently caress is all of that? I have a debit card linked to my cheque account, which has no fees for anything other than like $1 for withdrawal from other banks' ATMs. the card isnt meant to be a good deal. but it's a hell of a lot better than nothing for people who have amassed a "fortune" in illiquid internet money. $20 million doesnt mean very much when you can only use it to buy newegg hardware.

Bitcoin has liberated you from the onerous responsibility of feeless ATM withdrawals and debit card purchases!

It's also a good deal if you've made yourself famous in the fraud analytics department of every legitimate depository institution in the land and have literally no alternative option for moving value electronically because even walking into a bank will get fraud charges drawn up against you.

Makes sense. But who is running these things? Wouldn't you need to be connected to the evil fiat banking networks to have the buttcards work with existing POS and ATM infrastructure? And wouldn't you also need to be a registered money transmitter, etc? Sounds like there could be some legal lols in the making here. Assumming that it's not just some guy using stolen credit cards/russian mafia money to buy a bunch of prepaid visa cards and mailing them out to hapless buttcoiners Crazy Achmed fucked around with this message at 03:28 on Mar 26, 2015 |

I think this is something we nerds can finally rally around. iirc the (real, actual, not just bitcoiner but Serious Libertarian) justification is that you can't KNOW that by paying a hitman to kill someone, that that someone will ACTUALLY be killed. why this doesn't apply equally to, say, firing unreliable flint-lock pistols or sending poorly-wired letter bombs, nobody can say.

FCKGW posted:/r/buttcoin also points out that there is a difference of $90,000 from the stats on the changetip site and BashCo's post in the thread. He says this is because the changetip site is calculating the stats based on current pricing and BashCo is basing the stats on pricing when the tips were sent. [–]beer_warrior 4 points 3 hours ago How do they even pay you? Changetip doesn't seem to generate any actual revenue. [–]BashCo 3 points 3 hours ago Sorry, I forgot to mention that I will be paid in Tonal Bitcoins. I don't know how much they're actually worth, but I suspect the impact on revenue will be negligible.

and you can't even substitute hex for tonal because 9 in dec and hex isn't the same as 9 in tonal, so it's not a one to one swap from squiggles to letters
