Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
Ok, I'll leave you guys with your high hopes of moons and trains. I'll have to go and when I'll return, then this username is probably banned already because of the cries of rpietila. But see you all later under a new name.


Why bother?  You have HARDLY invested in bitcoin, and you really do NOT seem very interested.... except to denigrate various strategies.. without really providing insight... 

Yes, expel the unbeliever!



hehehehe... My point is NOT about unbelieving .. but about contribution and substantiating contributions... If a person merely criticizing BTC without adding value concerning why.. then what good does that provide...   Also, some posters seem to be real denigrating about the contributions of others... which really does NOT seem to add value but instead attempt to distract and to side-rail meaningful discussions...

A living example of a strawman setup by the original poster Cheesy

The post I responded to, which you later edited, simply responded "Don't bother" to Zapffe.




You are talking about me, engaging in strawman... I dont think so... I am just engaging in a conversation.. and I am suggesting reasons why Zapffe seems to be wasting everyone's time and NOT contributing... but anyhow, I am basing on a set of communications with him... Yes, I could be proven wrong that he is in fact a good contributor... but in my experience with his various posts, he seems to admit that he is NOT really contributing in any kind of meaningful way.. of course, he does NOT use those words or come to that conclusion.. but whatever, if posters admit that their purpose is to just spread FUD, then what good are they?  NOT MUCH>.. and accordingly, they should be removed, expelled, etc... .. .

Of course, I have NO power or authority to influence how much trolling is tolerated by the forum... and they come to their own judgements regarding whether posters (members) are contributing to the forum

Hide your women
The best thing for Bitcoin long term is another test of support on higher volume. Everybody sell.

Is bitcoin's purpose to make bank bail-outs easier, without having to wait on the decision of government officials?

no, bitcoins purpose pipe dream is to make bank bail-outs impossible, by removing the control from governments or large institution.

What would cause JorgeStolfi to buy?  Has he ever mentioned what the "tipping point" for him would be?  I am curious.
I already said that. I won't buy it for speculation, investment (whose "sale" I consider a scam), or even to help "the cause" (which at this point seems to have been totally derailed by "libertarians" and greedy financiers).

I may buy some cryptocoin someday to pay for something, if I find that it will be easier/cheaper/safer/faster/etc than the usual means (cash, check, bank remittance, cerdit card , debit card, ...).  Which does not look very likely right now.   Sad

If he changes his mind and buys some he should update [ his signature ]. Wink

Of course.

How do you know if Bitcoin isn't an easier/cheaper/safer/faster way to pay if you have never tried it.  Having used it on Overstock.com I can say it was easier/safer/faster and even "cheaper" (mostly because of the fact that the value and hence purchasing power of my bitcoin has increased since last year).

You've seen the message in the genesis block?

"The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks"

I saw it now.  Intriguing, but it is just the front-page headline of the main UK newspaper.

According to the source article, the obvious purpose of that string is to prove that the block was created after that date -- a standard trick often used with photos and videos.   Nothing indicates that the newspaper and date were chosen for the headline.

On the contrary, if the intent was to leave a political message, it should have been more explicit, no?  (Is bitcoin's purpose to make bank bail-outs easier, without having to wait on the decision of government officials?)

Hooray for collectivist misappropriation of wealth. Down with those stinky libertarians who think you should keep what you earn.

Privatized profits and socialized losses for all!*

It was supposed to be just an nternet payment method that was fast, cheap, safe, convenient etc., and did not depend on banks or governments.  Somehow "does not depend on" became "is beyond the reach of" or "will free us from" or even "will allow us to destroy". 

Adoption by the "libertarians" was the first of the two calamities that fell on bitcoin and will probably lead to its demise.  The second one was the price increases of 2013, that brought in all sorts of scoundrels, scammers and thieves who saw it as an easy way to take big money from fools.

And the wall is gone.

Was it just someone who wanted to buy a couple thousand more BTC below $500?

A whale can't eat it if it's your exchange and you know that nobody has the funds to do it.

Bitcoin is inherently libertarian.

It was supposed to be just an nternet payment method that was fast, cheap, safe, convenient etc., and did not depend on banks or governments.  Somehow "does not depend on" became "is beyond the reach of" or "will free us from" or even "will allow us to destroy".
