Sentient Data posted:Stupid movie didn't cover the TRUE history displayed in Cryptonomicon! And god drat did that book suck. I was expecting fanfictiony stupid Mary Sue stuff with glimmers of interesting moments after reading Snow Crash, but that stupid book was about 8 times as long as it should have been and goes on and on about such petty bullshit. But it's got THE VAULT and its magical digital currency which even in the book was used illegally, so of course it's probably one of the butter bibles I liked the setting of the pacific theater of ww2 since, growing up in Canada, you only ever learn about the European side. vv How to write like Neal Stephenson: 1) Press Random Article on Wikipedia 2) Write 4-5 chapters where a character repeats wikipedia page verbatim as part of the narrative 3) Write 2-3 wacky chapters about cap'n crunch, toilet paper pools, fictional video game languages' use of apostrophes, etc. 4) Write ending where the climax is 2 lines long and involves the villain dying unceremoniously 5) Masturbate furiously unpacked robinhood posted:fuuuuck all coiners ie: I got a job doing the overnight shift at 7/11 and can plug in a miner in the back room during my shift.

Dude in Cryptonomicon wanted to use the Blockchain to make an eternal memorial to Holocaust victims and use it as a way to teach those dirty poors in third world countries how to stop ethnic cleansing themselves every now and again. Basically, "[xxxx] but with Bitcoin".

Rick Ross Ulbricht posted:Real life experience paying with bitcoin (self.Bitcoin) It's the cashier's fault for using an iphone. Apple has been nothing but hostile to bitcoin for years, and is now actively boycotting bitcoin in order to get people to use its knockoff Apple Pay service. Everyone knows that.

The bitcoin ATM in Vancouver is/was running with CAVirtex, and the owner of the coffee shop it's in is a balls-deep bitcoiner who hosts weekly bitcoin meetups in there and everything. I look forward to seeing how they will react to this.

The term "expert" certainly gets thrown around easily in the bitcoin community, doesn't it? If you can found your own company/exchange, you must be an expert right? [image_mtgox_plaintext_passwords_in_url.jpg]

utorrent is just being robin hood, taking money from the rich fatcats and giving it to the poor charities in need. If anything, you should be thanking them for installing cpu-burning, electric-bill growing malware on your computer without your consent. It's for the good of society.

We also have interac e-transfer that does everything bitcoin purports to do (instant, free, party-to-party money transfers via email or text message), only safer, faster, and much, much easier.

The Management posted:gov.uk will regulate cryptocurrency The senate hearings on crypto in Canada are wrapping up too. I imagine similar recommendations will be proposed - though we are going into an election in a few months so I doubt they will get through Parliament before then. In the meanwhile, someone should start a betting site for pool bets on when "the next Silk Road v.X.XX" gets busted/runs with the cash. Not me though, ideas guy etc. I give this Agora place until the end of April.

P sure in 200 years we will be mostly extinct as a result of the global warming caused by exponentially-growing Chinese bitocin mining farms anyways, so we may all as well jump on the bitcoin bandwagon now while we still can.
