"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."

(Should not be taken as an endorsement of the man.)

This only happen in certain culture.

Some cultures have been suppress for so long that revolution is no longer a possibility.

Only works for countries that have not had their right to bear arms take away.

When you say "WE" do you think we are still in an early adoption phase? I mean how early in the game are we still?

So early that right now at least 50 countries around the globe doesn't even can pronounce "Bitcoin" word...

If and when it happens I don't really intend to be engaged in the world. A beach house, a few friends, and a tropical drink will pretty much constitute my world.

Quote from: Erdogan on July 04, 2014, 10:19:25 PM

"The new elites" will not need to shed their humanity, respect for all beings, their non-violent attitude. This is among the advantages of the new economy we envision.

If being elite means someone which is different, with the special privilege to extract wealth from others using force: We are not going to be elites, the topic is wrong.

Being an idealist is good. If history is any guide, revolution doesn't happen without violent. And the new group of elite will not be any different than the current group of elite as time passes on.

Maybe, but change can happen without violence. In this case, violence is not guaranteed.

I will buy a Lamborghini and you buy a ferari...then we will spend lavishly thus stimulating the economy...then we shall invest the remaining into global problem solutions like alternate energy, cancer research etc.

Will work only if you buy it with BTC, or we'll get back to start Wink

The younger generations will be bitching about how they hate everything we do.

That always happens throughout history, but envy or better said, evolution, always make us old generations stay still, stronger, inmortal...

We haven't invented immorality yet I'm sure their is a large demand for it especially among the wealthy elite
Maybe that is what the early adopters will create to mess with the new generation and become the immortal wealthy elite...
Yah that would be a bit weird.

Not yet, but it's in the works .... Wink

Well there is a lot of people having bitcoins so there is no centralised power, which is good, but keep in mind that there is a long way to achieve that and gov can anytime put bitcoin users on the blacklist, you are not as anonymous as you think you are.

@ Define Blacklist
Coins can be confiscated but they can't be blacklisted per-se as that affects fungibility.

Simply put A bitcoin is a bitcoin

I didn't get what you wanted to say, sorry.

Oh simply Bitcoins can't be blacklisted
The people can be caught but a Bitcoin is the same whether used to buy a TV or Drugs but a blacklist of users would not work in practice unless they monitored everyones IP addresses etc.

To become the true elite, someone probably need to raise an army using their newly found wealthy to fight the existing power.

This is a peaceful revolution. We don't need bullets, we just need to opt out of their system and it will collapse on it's own.
