Can i ask those of you that think this was made out of thin air

Bitcoins are not created out of thin air solely to enrich the coin issuer.  That's identical to the fiat banking scams we already have.

Get over it.. Fiat is DEAD  BTC is DEAD... Ethereum is the new btc.  Actually it far exceeds what btc could ever hope to be..

^Perfect example of delusional eth scammer.  Even Nick Szabo said BTC functions better as a currency than Eth but you have all these scammers crawling all over Bologniex claiming Eth not only functions (it doesn't, it's useless without partitioning and they can't make it work.  Partioning also defeats the point of Eth in the first place.), but it's better than Bitcoin to boot!

Well that's funny. Seems nick on board aswell lmao.  
"Recently, Szabo contrasted the use of smart contracts on Ethereum in relation to the Bitcoin blockchain, “If you want to have a flexible general purpose programming environment like programmers have been used to since the 1950s at least, then you’re going to want to use Ethereum because it’s got a Turing complete language and a large state. I sometimes make the comparison of a pocket calculator [Bitcoin] versus, say, a general purpose computer [Ethereum].”

Ahh well stay with your aol dialup coin BTC
You must be a bag holder. Wink.  Don't hang on too long or you'll miss the fomo event.  https://blog.ethereum.org/2015/10/22/nick-szabo-confirmed-as-keynote-speaker-of-ethereums-devcon1/


To each their own.  But hands down ethereum will smoke btc any day of the week.  Best better see it for what it is.  Sooner the better!


proof that Szabo isn't satoshi.


Honestly I don't have much knowledge on the whole Whois satoshi debate.  But this certainly doesn't mean that nick isn't Satoshi. inventions are all about an evolution of events that ultimately lead to bigger better things. If you think the wright brothers were the father of flight your wrong.  There were many that came before that failed and another gentlemens book on aerodynamics was what lead the wright brother to flight.  Bitcoin was great in that it got the ball rolling so to speak.  But to think that Bitcoin in its original form was going to ever work as-is is just silly to me.  This the very reason it's open source you think satoshi being as bright as he is didn't realize this? That is why it must either go thru hard forks to improve it.  Or we goto the better solution which is turning out to be ethereum.

satoshi implemeted a stack-based script language which is not Turing-complete. satoshi knew that a Turing-complete implementation has much more risks. Szabo sounds like he doesn't care about the fact.

Bitcoin uses a scripting system for transactions. Forth-like, Script is simple, stack-based, and processed from left to right. It is purposefully not Turing-complete, with no loops.
