Bitcoin is not a consumer thing. Find something more adequate for your needs and abilities.

Number one issue with Bitcoin right now? People with an agenda trying to make Bitcoin into what they want it to be.

I try to not get into the whole what Bitcoin is for debate, I see Bitcoin being most powerful when neutral and used for many different reasons.

So can Bitcoin be a consumer thing? Perhaps it can. Who are you to be the decider?

Some of your posts make a little sense, others just reek of stupid.

This isn't about me "trying" anything. This is about what something is. If you have problems with the notion that things exist as what they are, and not what would be convenient for you at the moment, and not what would make you feel better, and not what would include everyone, the remedy would be to spend your time reading, considering, and thinking.

Thinking. Not demanding that others conform to your broken ideology because "perhaps". Not nipping at the ankles of those who have thought, and drawn the correct conclusions (and yeah, there are such things as correct conclusions, whether you'd want that to be the case or not).

I get that in plenty of spheres you'd be able to spout this nonsense without anyone explaining to you that you've done something wrong, because you might be shocked and offended. Those are the spheres that suck, irrespective of whether they make you feel good, are convenient, etc. Bitcoin is not one of them. Specifically. If that means you're not interested, by all means go hang out at your local consumer bank, where I'm sure you'll get all the empty lipservice about being an important and valued customer you could possibly want. The rest of us are getting shit done.

Meanwhile, sittin' steady at 3:1.

More likely, no one gives a shit about that site.

Even the NO side, which I imagine is supported by all of the #bitcoin-assets fanboys, has only 5 people who bothered to bet. Honestly, the site is a fail, which explains why dividends to shareholders can be measured in pocket lint. The crew that run it just don't have the insight or temperament to operate consumer facing businesses.

This is stupid. IPO 0.0025 and this bet says the whole thing is a failure if investors don't get 120% ROI in 6 months from hashing.
It has been explained many times.
It has to be at least the IPO otherwise it could just be a refund of shareholder's money. It's even likely to happen due to the Avalon thing.
Honestly if you believe that you just don't understand investing at all. Not having that ROI, you're better off investing in a proven company. Why take such a risk for so little in returns?

Of course we need ROI, but 6 months from hashing is going to be very hard to do.

Well it looks like it's heading that way but, I think there's another way to do things with bitcoin. Be the shovel seller and you'll take home more than what the miners earn.  Roll Eyes

Even if you're long on ActiveMining betting on this is a sure way to lose money.

Still, only two real believers, compared to the vocal army of cheerleaders.
Don't they want to be rich?

Maybe they are betting that ACTM is going to make money back so all their current funds are tied up?

Maybe no one cares?

I'm sure this prominent thread title has NOTHING to do with the stock price being so low. Haha. Cmon guys, I'm due for a new car, just let it quadruple already please!
Seriously though, it is pretty fascinating the way this market works. I don't think I ever really grokked market irrationality until seeing it so close up.

"her being a virgin, living in a convent, being a feminist or a liberal or any other such proof of intellectual immaturity"

Met with high levels of defensiveness and a ready-made swath of dubious evidence. Check.

It just seems so improbable that two people with such a similar scent of insecure, delusional narcissism would ever meet each other in real life and collaborate suchly.

Also in the news, "Internet person cannot believe people meet". Help yourself.

So MPOE-PR, how do you feel about the fact that MP believes "There is no such thing as the crime of 'rape'?"

This is seriously disgusting.  The fact that you associate with such a misogynistic pig is truly saddening.

Because you read rape and automatically think of women it then follows MP is misogynistic. I like forum logic, continue.

Whats the difference between a bitcoin exchange and a bitcoin broker?
A bitcoin broker doen't tell you you could have been a model.

The 3rd-person references crack me up, what a nice touch. What flavorful personalities this Bitcoin world is graced with.

Looky, that I'm the girl in the avatar pic and that MP is a different person are well documented and long standing established rock solid facts. There's pictures of both of us in the same room, people met us in person at that conference you never knew about (you know, the one where MtGox' demise was decided), on it goes.

In spite of this having been amply documented, all over irc, all over this forum even, clueless noobs still jump both feet into their ridiculous assumptions on the matter, which is by now in itself a meme and a perpetual source of amusement at those clueless noobs' expense.

The only question remaining would be "why'd you put yourself in that laughable position". Do try and answer, I'm curious.
