Come on! .... they didnt tell them about a hybrid rule of PoW and PoS can be made within a day that it will nullify 51% attack completely..... Thats the strength of Bitcoin! it can grow and adapt!

Jeremy clearly pwn with his answer.... LOL "controlling silkroad-like activities"

Why is it that all the people that they get in these hearing are all pro regulation anti silk road ect ect... I would like to see somebody on one of these panels turn the table on these the criminals that are doing the questioning. 

damn that line up is nice!

Thanks a lot for the link. Good to see what's happening in the world of Bitcoin!

Benjamin Lawsky (superintendent of financial services) seems to be in favor in Bitcoin. He wants New York to be a Bitcoin/New technologie hub.
He also hopes that Bitcoin will force the traditional financial industry to step up there game (e.g. faster transactions). 

It should have been Andreas.

 

they don't know anything about Crypto's

Well, goddamn son, I've been out-trolled. That hasn't happened for years. 

I pm OP and he gave me 5btc to provide the link.. sorry but I beat you to it Thats how capitalism works
