I must be an Asshole Libertarian (because that's just kinda the way I am), but even lil ol moi thinks that security and health of the Bitcoin Ecosystem might require the occasional *tweak* now and then.  As in my idea posted a couple of weeks or so ago re minimum BTC amounts (sayBTC0.001) and/or minimum fees (say, BTC0.0003) to fight off the spammers...

I don't mind paying a bit more for my BTC payment to go through.  And, really, who needs micropayments?  (Oh...., was that an ominous silence I just heard in here?)

*   *   *

(Hear you re getting rich programming if I could do really advanced calculations)

And this thinking would drive all the markets that infact need the bitcoin ecosystem, either to offchain solutions or cryptocurrencies with a lower fee.

I am talking about the unbanked and poor economies.

Bitcoin should want to include those who need it most for its own protection aka decentralization.

Who need it most?!
And Please dont tell me the "unbanked". They need money food?!, not bitcoin.

Those most in need are those who have to live with tariffs, regulations and currency controls. It includes people in poor countries. Look at Africa and the middle east, there is almost no trade between neighbouring countries, it is almost all import and export to the west.


That is pure fud if not bs, whatever you like.

Im not denying african's problems, but bitcoin is so not going to change anything there.

They need to get rid of corruption, access water, food, first necessity Goods, medicine, etc etc..

Why da f*ck would they need internet money? Seriously this is beyond utopia, this is nonsense. Not that it is good to care about them poor people, but you are obviously blurred by either greed or stupidity.

You have heard of m-pesa haven't you?

Did it ever occur to you that an African actually might want to use a phone to transmit magic virtual money?

yes i know mpesa. they did not waited for bitcoin to start their buisness.

hdbuck: we can't drag along all garbage from history. People are individuals, the contemporary businessmen are not the same as the old. I am talking about free trade business, not foreign government force and those who hide behind it.

So what could this be?

"Officials in Israel this morning picked up two men charged in the U.S. with running a multimillion-dollar stock manipulation scheme. A third person remains at large. In another case in Florida, officials arrested two men for operating an unlicensed money-transfer business using bitcoins.

Though these are separate cases, some of the individuals are linked."

hdbuck: So they need to have exactly what we have, including the socialism? (Pointing at Greece). And who should give them all that, you? No, let them trade freely, say I.


eh, utlimately i'd argue that Africans need to kick the "white man" out of their continent.
its been too long already they have been spoiled, killed and manipulated by the West/North.


You could also argue that the trade represented by foreigners have been good, and their self-inflicted trade regulations have been the bad.



lel i would certainly not argue so.

foreigners controls both the trade and the regulation.
remember they regulated the slave trade.. Roll Eyes

That part was bad, i agree.


okay, so why would they want to cooperate with the same people taht use to treat them worst than dogs? (and kinda keep doing so)

africans are kept poor and powerless because the "white colon" just has to give money to the 1% tyrans other politicians wanabees there, so they keep their hands on their natural resources and minerals. plain and simple.

it has always been like that and it wont change unless they reclaim their independance/sovereignty/freedom and kick the invader out.

so imho they dont need this consumption system we are all relying upon to live our happy enslaving lives. and they certainly dont need bitcoin.

Since my comment could hardly install fear in anyone, it can not be fud. Therefore I don't have to argue the uncertainty part, nor the doubt part.

Crypto is the separation of Power and State.

Meanwhile, I support the original min tx fee of 0.01 BTC, for reasons Sunny King described starting here.

If I'm not mistaken PPC burns the transaction fee. That's a function that doesn't exist in Bitcoin. I'm surprised that Sunny King didn't make the distinction in his otherwise insightful posts there.

Sunny's weekly updates are intended for the PPC community.  So TYVM for that important point of information.  I'll retire to my Mind Palace and reconsider previous conclusions.  Unlike some people, I do that when my initial assumptions are updated.
