I asked why would you want to do it remotely, and you basically answered "I do it remotely".

by oafitupa 12y ago
No this is not Bitcoin-like. It's premined and requires trust. Besides, it's just a fork of Ripple, which has already failed after being dumped by its creator. http://i.imgur.com/DvyNzY3.jpg Oh but it has integr

Except it's premined and centralized. It's "stable" until its creator decides to dump, like they did with Ripple.

by oafitupa 12y ago
Well it's premined and centralized, so I would say it's just like any pre-Bitcoin coin/exchange.

Yep, just another premined coin to the list, and as it turns out it's a fork of Ripple. Everyone here should read this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8115272

Of course a "large enough" railgun could be a WMD, but they aren't large enough, so they are not WMD.

Just use Bitcoin. If you don't know how to, then just use BitPay, which today has announced a free forever plan, so it's a no-brainer.

It could be argued that they also cost a lifetime to learn. With normal, full blown editors (eg: editors that require Java) I get a ton of intuitive functionality for free, and I can start using it right away.

"They also can run in a remote console which for me is reason alone not to use another editor." As a developer, that makes no sense to me. Do you really need a powerful remote editor? What do you need a remote editor for, other th

The railgun isn't quite a WMD though, is it?

Agreed. The people who say that don't understand that something that Bitcoin got right (though it can be improved) are the incentives . People looking after their own self-interest will make Bitcoin work. That's why all those clo

Actually it's very common. Try arguing with a soldier. Those guys are brainwashed into believing that the military helped humanity move forward technologically, as if spending that money directly in research (without the bombings, the

Yeah, in the process of killing millions and all imaginable crimes against humanity, they did a few good things, no one denies that. But if you use those good things as your argument, that's known as the broken window fallacy.

Everyone can get richer now thanks to Bitcoin. Not rich? Doesn't matter, just buy $10, $100, or whatever you can spare.

Wrong thread? The guy got prosecuted for running a Tor node, not for committing a crime and failing to stay anonymous.

In chess, strategy is long term, tactic short term. A tactic has a very concrete goal, and in a few moves you will be able to say "it worked" or "it didn't work". A strategy has a more abstract goal, and sometimes y

The good thing about CryptoCat is that everyone wants to trash it, so it's becoming better.

All of you guys seem not to be aware of the things you can do with Bitcoin. Eg: multi-signature wallets. You won't need insurance when the coins simply can't be stolen.

"Websites don't actually accept USD, for example: they accept Visa" This has to be a joke. Are you going to ignore the part where I you can't send USD over the wire? Websites would definitely accept USD, if they could
