primewire ag has it up...

I watched it there.

Have the sads for Charlie Shrem though. And Tradehill.

Ya know, it's an interesting catch 22 - using bitcoin to move out of the old school banking model but can't get off the ground without a bank.

Decentralized and out of the control of any central authority yet at the mercy of any given bear whale who puts 30k bitcoins on the market all at once...

Bitcoin needs to find its legs. It's either disruptive or it's at the mercy of the current system and paradigm.

It needs to break out in a real way. Stop building solutions that in any manner rely on current financial models. I see the potential for it to be independent but it seems all these founders, pioneers and leaders are doing at the end of the day is bowing down and asking permission from the powers that be.

That isn't going to ever allow bitcoin to be all it can be.
