Hey! Nice to see a post from you again.

For you newcomers TradeHill is what should have been the biggest exchange, an example of doing things right. Thank regulation for pushing them out of the game.

Thanks, we had up to 20% market share or so when it was just us and Mt Gox. Then like you said regulation became an issue.
Dwolla didn't help when they deleted most of our balance and it made more sense to shut down then go insolvent.


I thought that was an easy choice but it looks like Mt Gox may have tried the "let's earn 750,000 Bitcoin back" move.
That said no one knows for sure yet so I don't want to speculate too  much.

Still paying a few people out, personally essentially out of coins so didn't benefit as much as I could have for someone building a company in the beginning. Very few regrets, never met a community like this before.

I thought senators was supposed to base their arguments on facts and figures. This guy is apparently misinformed.
In my country positive views and articles shows up all the time. Both in media and academia.
No fear mongering what so ever. People talk about how they are working on their PhD degrees in bitcoin related fields, and tech companies are talking about how they are building knowledge and laying plans for bitcoin technologies. All in mainstream media.
There is still a couple of mainstream media houses trying to give bitcoin a bad name, but this is actually good news in my opinion.
Its a strong indication that bitcoin in fact isn't another NWO master plan. If it was, all the mainstream media would be aligned pushing it to the people.

banning bitcoin like what senator manchin suggested is way stupid. you don't need bitcoin to commit crime. you could commit crime with fiat and internet.

bitcoin could solve a lot of world problems - so it depends on how you use it. so instead of banning it, we should promote how to educate people about it.
