Well at least the Fed is taking Bitcoin seriously (p.10 onwards).

Federal Reserve: Bitcoin Potential 'Boon' for Global Commerce
http://coinde.sk/1ki5Zeh They must have asked a bitcoin believer to write that section
Ah, I get it. Not even a report from the Federal Advisory Council and Board of Governors of the US Fed counts to you as a good source. The Fed puts on record conclusions that people in the know like you consider premature and influenced by amateurs.
EDIT: wording.
however TCP/IP, HTTP, FTP, etc are all still around. Those are the protocols.
Yes, but how often are you using gopher to read books, archie to find files, or do you finger your best friend to find out the latest happenings? For every legacy protocol still in use, there's just as many that are obsolete.
Fair.
Yet which of the following protocols do you think is most useful/revolutionary:
- Gopher
- Name/Finger
- Bitcoin
Archie is not a protocol, it runs on top of Telnet. Telnet is very useful. Should we say Bitcoin is like Telnet for money?
only place i ever spent more time that was worse was m.i.t. oh, and teza. wow. teza was a mindblower.
sounds intriguing. care to reveal more?

Nonsense. Without proof, you cannot tell a theorem from a well formed formula.

Oh
COME ON. Did you not watch
The Matrix?
guess i didn't.
there were just too many errors on that whole discussion of phil. of math. which fortunately is now well buried in the thread, like a transaction in the blockchain.
I think the main fear is that this auction is to test the waters for the sale of the 144k or so coins from SR
There is a difference between the coins that were left unsecured in seized SR servers, and DPR's coins. The US cannot put the latter on sale unless a) DPR is convicted of a crime and has exhausted his appeals, b) he voluntarily surrenders his private keys.

NLC, are you talking to yourself?
As always. Oh and welcome back to the forum, it's been a while since your account was created in 2014 - did you forget about Bitcoin, or bought the account from someone?
2013. I started several accounts back then and thought i'd reactivate this one in order to probe lamb's mind. Say, do old handles really get sold for good coin?
