after all we've been through i can't possibly believe that Yahoo TPTB_need_war has hoodwinked you into believing that Bitcoin is a tool for the real TPTB? seriously? b/c that is what you'd have to believe to think i am a shill for TPTB.
of course i have an interest. my coin (what little i have
)Huh? I entertained the hypothesis since before I bought my first BTC and have never discarded it. It has been and continues to be a relatively weak hypothesis, but absolutely strong enough to keep around.
Bitcoin invented by TPTB does not preclude two of my significant hopes for the solution:
1) I can make some money off it. [checked]
2) It can act as a spring-board for like but more robust ideas.
My mind does not work be believing something true or false. It works by assigning probabilities to possibilities and adjusting them. I didn't recognize how unusual this is until later in life.
