^^^ Colbert was really funny when he mocked the press corps, I did cheer for him then, sooo very looong ago.

But Lewis Black is one hell of a truthsayer, him I wouldn't debate because we'd agree about most things I bet.  I always have liked him, still do.  He should have got the tonight show, obvi.

Trust me, I am in no way trying to steal miners. BEN needs hash more than CC does right now. The point was that the value is extremely low and there are big buying opportunities before we launch Paysha to stock up on all the coins that will be listed

Cool, you are doing fine work.  Yes, me too I own the coins, about maybe what $150 of each and hell yeah they all went down --but I am pro crpytsy in terms of coins that have open code and usable wallets though they be slow.

Yes, thanks!

Okay so back to the history which Benjamin Franklin woulde be moste pleased with for us to know:

Hmm, the price is at .00001662 which is interesting.  Let's take that as a year, and I shall give thee some news of the realm circa [whatever the price is at] so if we get the price to .00002014 and steady, then our news in the thread will be timely and we can then say that cryptsy understands the relevance of the 1776 spirit.  As I said, having Benjamins rise above their spike shouldn't happen anytime soon, miners first, on principle.  A simple heavy price point of .00002014 will be fine, let people bulls and bears, take sides as to what I write or what others write, in the spirit of 1776.  Or, whatever years/prices we see on the way up, though it take decades, we have long vision.

1662 Events:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1662

May 16 – The Hearth Tax is introduced in England, Wales and Scotland.

Quote
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearth#Hearth_tax

Hearth tax
Main article: Hearth tax

In the Byzantine Empire a tax on hearths known as kapnikon was first explicitly mentioned for the reign of Nicephorus I (802–811) although its context implies that it was already then old and established and perhaps it should be taken back to the 7th century AD. Kapnikon was a tax raised on households without exceptions for the poor.[1]

In England, a tax on hearths was introduced on 19 May 1662. Householders were required to pay a charge of two shillings per annum for each hearth, with half the payment due at Michaelmas and half at Lady Day. Exemptions to the tax were granted, to those in receipt of poor relief, those whose houses were worth less than 20 shillings a year and those who paid neither church nor poor rates. Also exempt were charitable institutions such as schools and almshouses, and industrial hearths with the exception of smiths' forges and bakers' ovens. The returns were lodged with the Clerk of the Peace between 1662 and 1688.[2]

A revision of the Act in 1664 made the tax payable by all who had more than two chimneys

The tax was abolished by William III in 1689 and the last collection was for Lady Day of that year. It was abolished in Scotland in 1690.[2]

Ah yes we see the old notions of taxation are actually important --to historians!  Hehe, but also to modern day money manipulators and those who have gun sufficient to tax without representation.  But what meaneth 'representation'?

Well "Nicephorus I (802–811)" lived an apporpiately short life, what a d*ck!

Anyway, no doubt these events were welle knowne to Benjamin Franklin, so let us exchange books and Ben and yes diapers too for we are family types, common folk, who seek to study and learn.  Oh and to use high tech cryptography gear.

I think you misinterpret the intentions of Colbert Coin. Not only is it to get him to embrace his own coin, but to bring attention to all 6 coins on Paysha. You guys should all be working together as the SHA minority in a sea of Scrypt clones

Oh hell yeah you chose well because a mechanism such as what he uses, simply begs that he will aknowledge it.  It is brilliant actually and yes I will buy colbertcoin, for that reason.

He will acknowledge, he will cause it to do well, and when the miners seek to leave it, will he regret having acknowledged it?  Hmm, one thing's for sure, all you guys are super f*cking smart and you will be rich come hell or high water.  I just feel it.  But I gotta mine on principle.  Contract law is what all law is based on, that's a fact any lawyer will be forced to admit.  So I am thinking of how to get something much larger into a blockchain, no I will not mine any other SHA coins than Ben or BTC (though I mine no BTC only Benjamins on principle).

The sea of scrypt clones will face an orcish onslaught of upcoming ASIC-scrypt miners which are butterfly wing's-breadth away.  I hold both BTC and (actually more) LTC so I am long both blockchains, I hold all the crappecoins I hope they rise also.  I do not play.

I am taking the longest timeline, yes it is a "SHA minority" but what I see in the future is a law-mandated confiscation and price rise of mining gear.  So, when I bought crypto-mining gear, I did so knowing it was like well, gold coins or anything else that 'competes' with them.  Hmm, I won't explain further.  Point is: SHA-coins and scrypt coins and computers in general, will eventually be well, 'weapons', for lack of a better term.

Look, when players are being encouraged to wear Fawkes mask and attack some state website?  Damn, there's where your movement is done and over for what I can see.  Because IP is weaponized since some time ago, and you have to bring your a game if you want to field new schemes because people be gettin wise.

I like Colbert, I am just calling him out pro wrestling style, I will be "Uncle Sam" when I come onto his show, in full pro wrestling gear.

edit

No wait "Uncle SLAM"  ...Has any wrestler used that one?  Okay I call (tm) on it then!

Unlike Doge, Colbert actually has massive influence outside of the small crypto circle. That tweet is also why we chose to START with a reward of 1 with CC. Now there is no chance for a massive block reward reduction later when we want the price to rise. That's just shady shit. Goldcoin did it, first, from 500 per block to 49 with a fork

Nono it's cool, I will buy some 'colberts' on crypsty ffs I own 30+ different coins and my market cap for crypto is < 5k lol

Just post here when I should buy them.  No way will I hash for them, that's for all the cool people who use twitter, myself I never liked nor have used twitter.

But I am simply saying that I am putting my muscle behind Benjamins.  Let us see if this "colbert" will defend his coin?  When he mentions it on his show, you can bet, I will be here in this thread.  Make your moves Paysha, you know your shit and are right on top of this, thanks for being so patient with Benjamins, I have ideas that revolve around what you guys are already doing, and your idea is very impressive so you will certainly do well I think.

Smiley

But I demand Colbert throw some love to Benjamin Franklin if he fields this in TV space.  BTW TV mostly sucks I rarely watch it, except only to observe and confirm the suckage.  Hmm, we will see what this "Colbert" can do, because you KNOW John Stewart turned down the tonight show, you just know he gave it to Colbert, so power builds, yet when will these bobbleheads study history??  They get big enough paycheck ffs.  Who are their IT workers?  Hmm, NBC no I never worked there.  I bet NBC IT dept has turned over 10 times since 1991 at least at the desktop level.  It would be interesting to know. 

Well anyway, if Colbert lets the IT guys come forward and be seen, and to speak freely, then yes, he might be okay.  I will let you know.  But for me, he is pure chaff in the sky, meant to throw everyone off by generating false heat and scatter.  As the missile of the mind seeks a target, one needs to focus on the past, and comedians like Colbert and Stewart are not historians at all.  The Internet, however, is the best historian ever born.

Okay let's play this out in terms of history:

In the past before Internet, they had "MLM" which stands for Multi Level Marketing (means: You at the top and your friends are targeted for the distro chain)

They still have this bullshit but also it functions well in terms of cults, who can make members do whatever the hell they want.  So, obviously soon there will be religious coins, already there is jesuscoin, etc.  So, my point isa, y'all need to step your games up.  I might not yet be a dev, but I am learning Haxe which spits out perfect code in any language.  So, eventually, simply the best ideas, like Satoshi's brilliant paper described (rejecting shitty nodes, making a better group of work I.E. FORGING A CHAIN OF PEOPLE) will rise to the top.

When Satoshi said : "make nodes do [this math] and they will always quickly sniff out bad nodes and make a better proof-product" what was he saying?

It is simply impossible, for us, to understand what the true value of a person-to-person moneymaking machine network, is.  I am saying in the future, your life, is what blockchain you mine, and how hard do you protect the means to mine it and use it.  I am saying history (yes, farther back than 1776) is replete with 0% success of fiat currency.  That means all of them, eventually do fail.  However, I am an American, but I see that the Dev team for Benjamins was global.  And I find that charming and inspired.

The globe, is something we can all appreciate, is it not?  But needeth money be so hard?  Woof?  Good doge.  [pets doge] See, he always knows his buddy.  Where on Earth do humans not loves doges?

Well, let's just say this:  Your notions are only as good as the minds and voice --read: real people, that you can field to defend those notions.  So the triangle goes like this:  1: idea, 2: minds, 3: voices/words.  ...For my part, I am quite charmed by how this whole rollout went.  I do think it was an honest mistake and Ben's just chilln, being cool.  Literally in a PM before he dropped off for a nice well deserved vacation (while I mine in his absence) he told me "Write whatever you want in the thread."

Okay, so I did that.  But let me tell you:  I have worked threads to 2000 pages and beyond, and I always fill them with nuggets of historical goodness.  Since the inception of Satoshi's code, I have been lurking, waiting, for someone to do what Ben did.  And so he is always a champ and a heroe in my eyes, for what he wrote in this thread before taking his nice, well deserved vacation.  He is probably too smart to fall for my lame ass callout attempts.  hehe, anyway, I have no PMs from him, he can tell me to STFU and I would.  Really, read his interesting quotes in this thread, I like him, and that's why I am here.

I mine on principle, until the day I believe Satoshi's code was a stupid notion, and that day has not yet arrived.  Do I ken the code well enough to massifork it myself?  Not yet, and anyway, what would I put into the code?  Hmmm, like I said maybe by the Fall I can do something with it.  Until then, I mine, and I study history, in the spirit of 1776.

Colbert is a joke of a man, and therefore it is a joke of a coin.  I respect the doge smiley dog more than Colbert

Unlike Doge, Colbert actually has massive influence outside of the small crypto circle

There is a lot of room for miners to pump and dump something nobody cares about.

No way will this give you more cred, no way will people use his coin.  He is a joke of a man, I will be glad to debate him and I will win.

The doge meme has more cred than Colbert, he is almost as worthless as a politician.

But hey don't let me stop you, go ahead with whatever the plan is for the next POS system which will protect people.  I have basic ideas about it involving end to end crypto, but I will have to watch all the other stuff get fielded first.  That's fine I am very patient and obviously so are you.  Cheesy

But no, I would say taking SHA hashers from 1776 and putting them in the vacuum of the present in the form of ultimate empty head buffoon Colbert S.??  No thanks.  He would never debate me anyway, once it came down to it, it would be called off.  Seriously, he has little knowledge of history and is not even a decent interviewer.  The tonight show will be a disaster with him.  But yes, he is funny.  Hahaha, much lols, many profits much coins fast agree!

Paysha ‏@PayshaPayments Mar 20

This is even worse than the Goldcoin scam at this point. What a fucking mess this poser is making @maxcoinproject

Well, this is the best tweet on the Paysha feed.  So, even as the community is killed by pools that kill coins, don't you think that should be addressed before your huge plan to rollout some world changing thing?  The Maxcoin hostile pool fork should cause everyone to understand the power of coins to be killed by some douchebag nihilist pool.  Some people only feel smart when they hurt others, it is sad but true.  That's why you have to mine on principle.

The world can be changed at any time, for the better of one or few devs.  The world _itself_ can only be changed for the better, over the long term.  Anyway, you said the reason you chose Ben for your group was simply because the developers of Ben had more questions than any other.  Tell me:  Did any of the Ben devs have security as their questions?  Because, I feel like there is a serious blind side here that suckers people.  It's as if you all are refusing to make cryptocoins something real, just trying to fling them to see what suckers bite.  Colbert is a joke of a man, and therefore it is a joke of a coin.  I respect the doge smiley dog more than Colbert.

That can't be a business model.  Suckerism will fail as the plebes wake up.  Anyway, thanks for being patient with the 1776 spirit.  We sit in the shadow of some dude who either dumped his coins or is praying this would all go away.  But no, the 1776 spirit once roused, cannot be put down.

Do you have meetings that do not worry about people's feelings but rather, which are designed to shoot down stupid ideas?  Those are my favorite kinds of meetings but they are rare.  Bear in mind, I am not a college student, I win all my meetings through superior knowledge.  Also I was published in Scientific American magazine, specifically on the subject of cloud computing.  Hehe, who am I?  I will let you look through the back issues.  Cheesy

Thanks for sticking in there Paysha, I am sure your Q-code idea will be put to good use by somebody and it is good you are working with FinCen because I am sure they are ashamed of how horribly the American people have been robbed at their POS locations, so it is good to finally have some brains on the case, hehe.  But seriously, invite me to your conference calls I will speak for 1776 and working foremost to protect the common man and woman in their needful transactions.

Stops on the block 24270

Anyway yep 24270 was the last block found, 24271 is the one we've been working on.

your wallet is up-to-date. we have NOT found block 24270 yet. It thinks you're not in sync as the network expects to have found a block sooner than 2-3 days, but alas, we have not.

Okay yes you're right.

But the point is the same, things move slowly in 1776 terms.  Liberty takes time to find purchase in a world of flash profits.

But to answer all the earlier posts about "Where's Ben the dev"?  To me, he seems kinda like that Anthony Michael Hall character in Breakfast Club, ya know "I pulled the stupid trunk and the light's supposed to come on..."  So he's probably a bit hard on himself, and probably he didn't expect a person like myself to bring a true 1776 modality to his thread.  Who really likes history or truth?  Not many people are ready for it.

So, I kinda expect him to launch with some other personality.  Like maybe "JefeersonCoin" or something?  LOL  How many 1776 coins can you think up?  Well, I will stay on the first, original, accidentally cracked blockchain because it seems to have integrity and is open for all to peruse.  I can't stand thinking about the next horrible thing some dev is gonna do.  I'll stay right here.

But, my question is since Ben licensed the code under MIT license, does he go to MIT or is that the same license as the bitcoin code?  Also if he goes to MIT does that mean he is lacking in the normal social skills like a lot of their students?  Also, did Ben the Coder have a web presence before his "AllAbouttheBenjamins" persona?  Because, that persona, apparently WAS all about the Benjamins.  I see some hundreds of thousands of coins dumped at the top, so maybe only the bag holders care now?  

Meh, I have been a bag holder in many other schemes by devs, a class of people who seem to need so much help, either in not screwing the world up, or in staying focused on one project.  So, I will work this thread and this blockchain, until the unforseen future.  In terms of 1776, we must accept what has been given, this difficulty will not make a ton of coins, but 2.4 million already exist and they can be fractioned, and this open code can be taken by good people, to prevent all the crap that cryptocoins come with.  Let us not tolerate any more flaky devs, if they want to work a SHA coin, take one in the 1776 spirit.

But yes, as you say "alas" it takes time to find new coins.  But also like we discussed, 30 BEN = about 20 cents so investing in the 1776 spirit ain't hard either.  And so I don't think it's quite "alas" yet, unless people are trying to get rich.  Myself, I am mining on principle, I am not a thief, I am not some flaky throwaway named developer.  I am real in the IT world and people know me.  I ain't on some crap like LinkedIn or FB or Twitter --those are for fools.  I am as real as it gets.  I was on the Internet before G00g and I saw what they did to it, so all this new crap can bite me.  I will be in the 1776 spirit, hoping for a better future.  Thanks for all your hard work and especially for being adult enough to post in the thread even as the rollout didn't go 100% to plan, it is a charming crack that this bell has.

Not to hijack the thread, but come check out Colbert Coin. It's going on Paysha, just like BEN

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/anncc-i-am-crypto-and-so-can-you-colbert-coin-now-on-two-exchanges-567491

More SHA coins that have no principle?

From some nobody puppet famous tard who doesn't even acknowledge the thing?

That's what you want?  1 million coins?

Okay then.  I will continue to mine Benjamins, also, I will be happy to debate Colbert face to face because he's a buffoon and I loath him.  If you can't stand Colbert and his shallow lack of history, then join us and mine a SHA coin that is not a joke, or even if it was, was a joke which shall become true based on the spirit to which it is attached.  Colbert?  Seriously?  No thanks.

Stops on the block 24270

Keep your wallet up for a few days and it will sync.   You have to be patient it takes 3 + days for coins to confirm.  Since there are no existing miners who have any interest or knowledge about history, then well, we have miners equivalent to their knowledge of history which means: We have few miners..

So we are on our own until we find some people who are willing to put hashes behind a principle.

How about you?  Do you mine any SHA coin? Let us know if you'd like to learn!  But anyway your wallet sounds fine it just takes 3 days or more to do anything with no miners on our blockchain [shrug].  But I will continue to mine Benjamins and pray that some or any humans will see that a blockchain you mine on principle. is the most powerful economic tool of this time.  People don't quite know that yet.

Anyway yep 24270 was the last block found, 24271 is the one we've been working on.  Your wallet will update.  Did you send coins to it?  If so rest assured they are still in the blockchain and will show up in your wallet just be patient.  In 1776 terms, everything is slow to these fast paced people of today.  Cheesy

your wallet is up-to-date. we have NOT found block 24270 yet. It thinks you're not in sync as the network expects to have found a block sooner than 2-3 days, but alas, we have not.

As for the little engine that could bring back 1776, the BEN blockchain...

Hehe, I detect little sarc and that is most welcome friend.

Bu I wanted to expound a bit before I go make breakfast and whatever;  See, bringing back 1776 in he best ways, is what you mean.

And yet, there is a lot about 1776 that we wouldn't like, and that is why revolution came.  There were conditions most grievous and particularly in terms of taxation without true representation.  Well, in terms of government, a blockchain be far better than politicians says I.  I picture the Benjamins fork upcoming to perhaps include some simple sort of Rickardian Contract that will allow us to discuss our local and national issues, but that might be years ahead.

I would love to use a blockchain to vote.  You see, I have never voted, even though I am fully vested in Social Security before age 40.  So will I ever see my SS funds?  I know due to research most painful that the answer is probably no (lest I am pray disabled and then I shall be well funded by the scheme).

Therefore one of the first things I would vote would be the ability for the Social Security Administration to discharge all present funded citizens like me, in cryptocoin of my choice.  I would choose Ben, and I would get a lot of them.  Well, that's if SS had to buy them off market.  Hmm...  They do have approx 90 trillion in fwd liabilities of workers now 15 years old starting to work.  I am sure my idea will resonate from here.

Well anyway we need no more decade-long Atlantic wars.  But the 1776 spirit of common sense, the man of highest intellect and vision, can return.  Let's see if anyone knows and loves their history?  Prudence says a little knowledge pays off in the long run.

My bad, its back online anyway.
Keep in mind it was a community service.... i mean you can feel free to do it, hosting isnt free.
If its down and i miss it, just PM me directly please or find me on IRC freenode as vual.

Explorer

In regards to the BEN/Huggies exchange.... do you ship to Australia....

Hehe, anyway sorry I was kinda snippy there.., but sure I have a server to mirror it or whatever better solution is found, but from Ben's twitter we see that it attracted some real douchebags who DDOSed it  So did you ISP give you data on it getting hit??

Anyway thanks buddy you are the man.

Well yes a BEN/HUGGIES exchange serves the future generation nascent in said diapers so yeah.  But shipping always wrecks it for everybody.  Hmm we will need to think about this more.  Maybe Ben market cap when it rises can groupfund hot air balloons whereby said diapers be tossed harmlessly down in the general region?  That'd be cheaper and would work for ye Outbacke regiones.  Hot air balloon costs easly 200k I bet tho.  Also the diaper delivery balloon man would have to be of brave cloth.

Hey I still am thinking about the POS idea we discussed from raspberry Pi earlier in this thread.  I think it is a viable idea, and easy to build a prototype.  I had in mind a sort of cracked Liberty-bell that is maybe 20-30cm high (a bell that just sits on the counter away from the register as do the photo machines) ...This bell would of course have a customer facing side int which a cut out square ereby holdeth ATM-style touchscreen. 

I know full touchscreen for the Pi is not expensive and there is no cash tray with cryptocoin so low theft vector.  Naturally there has to be cooling because inside the unit there will be an Antminer chugging away, assuming the merchant has local IP.  THAT'S what the nextgen crypto POS machine do, it will build a bigger blockchain with every iteration of its POS device going into the field.  The merchant or the sell through will fund it.

This device would look pretty cool and cost like 500 bucks at most and need only the most rudimentary interface for people to touch and work with.  On the other side of the bell is a simple Sato type printhead or alps or zebra etc, that does the dirty work: spitting out a receipt a Q-code or a bar code which then get's taken to the register.

Well anyway, every register has some OS underneath it.  I have installed *nix knockoffs XP itself on the NCR touchscreen monitors (which all just download the image from home base)..  So the BenBell(tm) wouldn't even be a register because there's no money just codes.  Like the coin machine which collects coins and spits out a UPC which has an amount at the stores register. 

Hmm, well the main reason for such a device is to work in some process by which the low cost of the bell is paid for by promotions or some benefit to the merchant such that the merchant will say "Yes"and thereby another MINING device is brought on board.

I am describing a new POS vision, away from the register, cash free, totally high-crypto from point to point at all nodes, proven by grass roots level fair open source dev team who launched the 1776 blockchain with an accidental favourable crack, yes, I can see such a thing coming about.  It is as easy as flying a kite in a lightning storm!

As for the little engine that could bring back 1776, the BEN blockchain...

That's the spirit.
