Those are two very strange statements to put beside each other, Patrick. It makes it seem as if you genuinely believe that processing digital payments is something that should cost society a significant amount of money.
- patio11 13y agoYou're missing the now-deleted context, which is him accusing me of talking my book because Stripe. I was pointing out that, if anything, my book would be in the other direction. I'm still flummoxed that people keep thinking I'm part of the Global Banking Conspiracy rather than, say, a geek who makes a living on the Internet who came to his own conclusion.
- trevelyan 13y agoNo... my comment was incidental to the identity mix-up. I'm just genuinely curious how any bootstrapping entrepreneur can be negative about bitcoin while still aware of how difficult and expensive it is to accept digital payments.
