Topic: MINERS UNITE! Block the FBI coins. Do not fund violent underground organizations - page 8. (Read 10019 times)

Good one. I prefer to make fun of the "government" for thinking that they own the silkroad coins.

This is not anymore possible after the coins circulate again. Now is the time.

You should start this campaign which I will support. It is your idea. People make mistakes. This is their nature.

Sometimes 50$ today is worth more than 500$ in a year.

I think your idea is ridiculous.


Maybe some others are interested in a group buy of these coins? (testing water)

I don't want to block the coins, I want to watch the US government make the terrible mistake of trading precious BTC for worthless fiat this early in the fiat->crypto transition, so we can all later laugh at them for their folly.

I want the clever folks who buy these coins to make out like bandits at the FBI's expense. This will be a "stupid government" joke for the rest of history.

Selling Bitcoins means also lower price for your Bitcoins! The money printers will not last for ever. Let's start early.

We have influence. It is your choice what freedom is. Freedom from freedom? Freedom from violence? Do not trust algorithms blind. Otherwise you will end up in the matrix.

man, if they two largest pools banded together to do that, bitcoin would go crashing. people would fear these 2 miners.

The blockchain is neutral. It is up to payment accepters to filter out Bitcoins.

Therefore you need to define your purpose of Bitcoin. My purpose is probably not your purpose.

While I agree with you that the Silk Road is a good thing I don't think blocking those coins will do anything for anyone. The FBI will get the money they need to continue their crap whether they get it from selling bitcoins or from the money printers.

Plus, singling out coins and designating them "bad" is a very unsavory president to set. What happens when the coins someone want to mark isn't such a bad thing? Let's keep freedom free and be a good example, not play their game of attempted control.

False flag trolling.

this idea seems like it would set a dangerous precedent. If people decide to start blocking coins doesn't that defeat the purpose of bitcoin?

Miners, now it is your turn.

A US-tax-funded violent underground organization is about to sell Bitcoins which got robbed from a innovative San Francisco startup, a marketplace which was creating a better because more peaceful world! A marketplace which put users, transparency, safety and quality first and not outdated laws and bureaucracy. A marketplace which enriched our private private lives and helped us having a better time together in love and peace. A marketplace which was ultimately against violence, guns, corruption, distrust and obfuscation.



America's war on drugs is lost. We all know it! It is time to stop it before it does further harm to the people of this world.

Let's face it. Most likely only two people have the power to block the silkroad coins (https://blockchain.info/address/1FfmbHfnpaZjKFvyi1okTjJJusN455paPH) from being sold. They are the operators of the biggest pools: Ghash.io and BTCguild. Together they have more than 51% of the networks hashing power. If they do not want to (because they might be already saturated) all we need to do is to convince the majority of the miners to join other pools which do following...

HOWTO :: Technically speaking the ming pool operators need to (1) block all new transactions which are descendants of the silkroad coins which were located once on 1FfmbHfnpaZjKFvyi1okTjJJusN455paPH and (2) do not accept new blocks which contain such transactions as part of the longest chain (which you mine on).

The Bitcoin protocol remains unchanged and allows by definition such interventions. It is time to use them for the benefit of our society. And it will be a race. Let the longest chain win!

MINERS UNITE! It is finally time to stop violent tax-funded underground organizations like the FBI from exploiting the people who they were once supposed to protect! Do not let people who stay totally in dark take away more of your wealth for themselves and projects which will further limit your freedom! Join mining pools which block the silkroad coins until the legitimate owner gets access to them back or at least a fair and public trial happened!

@ Developers :: Build patches for mining pools which follow the HOWTO. Build also patches for the wallets which consider transactions invalid which originated from the FBI address or at least warn users after having received such transactions. Make it easy for people to express their opinion on this topic through software!

The blockchain is not neutral.

It would not exist without hard working people.

People who love freedom and honest behavior.

Good people.

It is time for your vote.
