Everybody said the same thing about spending bitcoin in the first place, and look how true that is. (Not at all.)

Or maybe it's all one universe and the big bang was just a localized event within it, but since we can't see that far away it seems like everything. (Not a physicist, this idea may seem silly to the more well-versed in this topic.

It seems to me less that the "rhetoric" has changed, than that the set of people who use bitcoin has simply greatly expanded to individuals with increasingly less revolutionary ways of interpreting the currency. The people in it f

I think his point is simply that if the regulation limiting the number of cabs had not been in place, DUIs would have already been reduced due to that. It's not anything about how uber of lyft work in particular that is contributing to

It'd be like trying to regulate 500 million independent banks. You could make a law about it, but it'd be impossible to enforce.

That's not what the timer is referring to. The 15 minute timer is in place due to the exchange rate. Newegg prices their items in dollars, BitPay converts it to a BTC price and presents that price to the user. They can't show tha

Some people, sure. Enough to account for this trend? Doesn't seem like that'd be possible.

I just watched their demo video at the bottom of their blog post [1]. When making a purchase, they already show line items for Circle Fee and Bank Fee, they're just set to $0. My guess is that this is a promotion for growth, and at som

My point was not that hoarding is a myth - my point was that "people will not spend bitcoin, because they will only hoard it" is a myth. Have you actually talked to people who own bitcoin? They want places to spend it. > Just

I was saying that the myth is that people don't want to spend bitcoin.

by beaner 12y ago
Is this myth not dead yet? People spend bitcoin and want to spend it. There is also speculation and hoarding, but no universal law that says you can't do both. $10 isn't even much to hoard. If the price goes up 10x that's st

Don't understand why we don't start naming and shaming. It's a lot easier to not see as a real problem when it's always stories of nameless men in unspecified locations and situations. And the kinds people who are prone

Because they are in conflict. "Cancer is like a random process" is saying that it can happen equally to anyone. "Most sailors eventually got melanoma from being out all the time" is showing that it does not happen eq

[My original comment was "Are you sure about that?" which I deleted after a few seconds.] So it looks like you can deposit fiat, but only via bank wire, money order, or a couple strange services. Which is still cool, but not real

Wow. Wait, what? How is this not more widely known?

What I am surprised about, as a Capitalist, is that anyone assumed "equality" was a natural result of capitalism.

I don't get it either and I have no idea why you're being downvoted.

There is no full list. The "exploit" doesn't give you email addresses you don't already have. This is why it was not considered a vulnerability.

Just thinking out loud I guess. Altneratively: it went to Diego Garcia, and the US military is in on it. No civilians or public air services required. It refueled and launched again from there. Don't necessarily believe these are likel

Your anecdote does not equate to "disrespect an exploitation are absolutely prevalent." You didn't actually build an argument for that statement, you provided one personal example. It sucks you had that experience, but just b
