EorayMel posted:what it becomes is entirely a function of what it can do I remember reading this thing before about how bitcoin is the most amazing thing to happen to the planet since the human brain, but reading it again I feel like the phrase above is like another way of saying it's a solution looking for a problem.

That is some genuine bitcoin TA right there!

EorayMel posted:Similar deal with an exchange called bitfinex. They got hacked and some people lost all the bitcoins they put in, others were totally unaffected because they dealt in USD. So the exchange straight-up stole funds from other people to cover the BTC losses so the burden of this hack was helped spread equally. So what, you lose 20% of your funds, but that's better than having 100% of your funds trapped in some lovely country maybe? Sorry for your loss if you live in a place like that. Probably people trying to buy their tickets out of lovely third-world countries also get scammed regularly. Much like how bitcoin works, I guess that's the price of having to do business with criminals. Oops, I was expressing sympathy for those less fortunate than me there. What I meant to say was we should build a wall to keep out the bitcoiners and refuse them visas. I mean refuse more of them visas, and refuse them more permanently, not like Roger Ver who eventually got back in. Maybe if they're already citizens, then renounce their citizenships for them.

OP do you already have a grindr account? If so you're a mere age change away from hooking up with some bitcoins, it's never too late to buy buy BUY! Sorry I don't remember what age you need to use, I think it was pretty old though.

Ham Sandwiches posted:The posters that post poo poo about bitcoin do so without any knowledge or direct investment. Whoa poo poo divabot is writing a book and doesn't have any knowledge about the subject? I bet it's going to be a bad book, kind of like your posts. mojo1701a posted:Always knew he had libertarian sympathies ever since he named himself Jeffrey of YOSPOS instead of YOSPOS Jeffrey.

That face just makes me irrationally angry, like I want to punch my screen, which is ironic since I did a GIS and recognized his name from that Let's Read: "Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality" thread I read a little of. I can't even remember many of his stupid opinions, I just wish I didn't have to see his face every time I read your posts  I don't have time for all these words, I just need to know which cryptocurrency to give all my money to. Comfy Fleece Sweater posted:That sounds loving dumb, as I thought. "Help, I just did a git pull and now the software just says that the network has been shut down." "Help, I just did a git pull and now there's a nag screen saying that I have to pay if I keep using the software for 30 days." "Help, I just did a git pull and now all the files on my hard drive are encrypted and I need to send bitcoins to some address to decrypt them." Yeah you totally don't need to trust the guy who wrote the code you're running on your computer, you just read the specification/white paper and write your own implementation, or else do a line-by-line audit of the code prior to running it and prior to every time you do an update.

gary oldmans diary posted:to compensate you for your lost bitcoins we are issuing the equivalent value in whoopsiecoins which we just made up and can be traded freely on this very site VERY MISLEADING. They didn't depreciate by quite that much. Did they? divabot posted:btw, the book is up for preorder, release date July 24. OH GOD I HAVE THREE WEEKS TO DO ALL THE THINGS Do I get some kind of figurine or collectible quote:there is a FAQ. it has one answer, and I didn't even have to say what the question was. Surely you should have said "fiat currencies"?

Did everyone with accounts there lose 30% of their balances? poverty goat posted:regular porn sites actually take bitcoin now because a lot of people are happy to pay if it won't show up on their credit card statement Porn site shows up on your credit card statement? Wife leaves you. Bitcoin exchange shows up on your credit card statement? Bank closes your account. Why not both? Get rid of your credit card and only use bitcoin, then kick your wife out because she'll complain about bitcoin because females don't understand things to do with money

Comfy Fleece Sweater posted:I transferred 0.1 bitcoinz to a private wallet So are you printing out the key? Are you memorizing it? Is it a brainwallet thing protected by the extremely secure passphrase "kuato"? Are you storing the key on a laptop with all the ports epoxy'd? Are you storing the key on a USB stick under a birdbath? I'm just wondering how regular folk keep their money secure in these crazy futuristic days of super-convenient internet money.

I'm investing in Ham Sandwiches, his post count is going up uP UP! 10% of the posts in this thread are his, he's made the most posts and more than twice as many as the next most prolific poster. I don't care that the posts are backed by poo poo and garbage, you can't argue with those stats!
