HA! all your divs are belong to me

Was a threat to banking cartel that controls US gov

Good question.  I live on what's commonly known as Massachusetts.  I'm hesitant to say I live within the United States because I'm unsure which of the multiple definitions for "United States" applies.  For example, Title 26 §3121 defines it:


That's not me.

The BFL equipment I mine with, and the BFL devices I have ordered, do not need FCC certification.  If you were planning to quote from Title 47 USC Telegraphs, Telephones, and Radiotelegraphs, I can tell you it has not been enacted as Positive Law.  A non-positive law title is "an editorial compilation of Federal statutes."  It's not Congress' exact words, it may vary, and therefore does not apply outside of the federal districts overlaid on the states.  Except, of course, by contract; by agreement.

news for ya.  Not everyone is subject to FCC requirements.
news for ya.  Not everyone is subject to Title 26 (the tax code).  Yeah buddy, I don't pay income taxes.

Must it fall on me to educate y'all on just who is running the world's biggest scam?

Seriously, you think we care about FCC certification?  Ask anyone with ASIC on order if they'd rather wait an extra 2 weeks to receive an "approved" item; whaddya think they'll say?  "Ooo I'll get hiss whenever I move my radio within 3 feet of it. Who cares. Just gimme my magic money box, NOW!"

BFL ownership may not be lily-white, but consider who is running the best scam in the world and don't lose sight of it.  Central banking has more victims than all other cons combined.  In fact, if you walk around with Federal Reserve notes in your pocket, you're considered a reserve bank. You're in signature contract with a private cartel, you've been scammed by the best. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DU6fxC5CXMg

Fortunately, mining and using bitcoin helps end that scam.

bummer.  I like bitmit.net

But you know, this could be run lawfully from the US.  The secret is to keep it all outside the Federal Reserve system.  That's how THEY get jurisdiction to control you in the first place - if you endorse private credit of the Federal Reserve then you're subject to the terms of their (hidden) agreement.

I can't.  Bitmit.net appears to be down today.   

Sonny, thanks for sharing and welcome to Bitcoin Forum. I'm impressed with your BitForce Single, it performs as advertised.  No one else offers the equivalent of 832mh/s @ 80 watts for $633 delivered, although I did wait 52 days to get it.  Congrats on your success.

Everyone, let's not forget who's running the big scam in this country.  Who conned you into using government debt notes as money?  Whose executives never end up in jail?  I'll give it to you straight up - Banks run this country, not politicians.  The Federal Reserve owners run the real scam.  When you endorse private credit of Fed you come under their jurisdiction (federal districts overlaid on the states). FR notes/credit depreciate (10% last yr) and US Treasury carries first lien on everything you bought with it. Happens every week on the backside of your paycheck, signature endorsement, naked contract. Yet the biggest haul is the excise tax due for use of their money, more commonly known as The Income Tax.  I should think a 99-year scam qualifies as a "long con."

Fortunately, we have a way out of this banking cartel scam.  Remedy is written into law ".. they may be redeemed in lawful money on demand."  See here.  And here.  The way out is to redeem lawful money, use silver & gold, and use BITCOIN.  This is why I support bitcoin and BFL.

Peace & love

Well 1861/62 saw the first Revenue Act to tax income.  But a careful read shows it applied only to federal things, soldiers, officer pay, etc.  Basically Congress taxing Congress' stuff.  But yes, the introduction of FRNs allowed the banksters (in partnership with government) to apply federal taxation out to the rest of America.  But it was a very slow, gradual process.  Remember, the early FRNs were backed by metal, real money, and were probably considered placeholders for money, not money itself.  Says right on them: "PAY TO THE BEARER ON DEMAND...TEN DOLLARS."

Wow, leave it to an Aussie bitcoiner to discover the American system of banker oppression ... carried out with Federal Reserve money.  I've been redeeming lawful money (public money) for years here in the US, and can confirm that 'deadlizard' is (mostly) correct.  US notes were discontinued but still in circulation.  Not a moot issue, trentzb, and very much on topic.  The judge says the Constitution is not applicable because he's enforcing a private agreement - you've endorsed private credit of the Federal Reserve backside of your paycheck.  You are contracting.  Make your demand for lawful money instead as written in Section 16 of the Federal Reserve Act (codified at 12 USC 411) and you'll then be NON-contracting, operating outside the federal districts overlaid on the States.  If true, you realize that bitcoin operates outside their system too.  Bitcoin receipts are not income under the Revenue Acts, unless of course you consent to consider them so.  That's where the propaganda, psychology & conditioning come into play.

I haven't paid federal income taxes since 2007; no issues. Here's a company that beat the IRS using lawful money: http://savingtosuitorsclub.net/showthread.php?681-Company-beats-IRS-penalties-with-Lawful-Money

PS. beware.  There's a quatloser site out there that's disinfo - specifically setup by attorneys to steer you away from this.

freetrade, I'm with you on this.  Bitcoin miner since 2010. We definitely need another auction/trading site accepting bitcoin.  I've bought & sold on eBay since '98 - familiar with most of the horror stories.  As for BiddingPond, I really wanted it to work but it appears near dead, and my one negative experience there (scammed by a 0 feedback seller) leaves a bad aftertaste.

How about a site that accepts payment in anything EXCEPT Paypal?
 

"Firefox can't find the server at www.biddingpond.com"

Probably at least one, thanks

Two things would really help make BiddingPond a professional auction site.

1) Stop putting BiddingPond's bitcoin address as Newbies payto address.  I've seen this multiple times; new user puts up first auction, buyer sends BTC to address in auction listing.  "Hey buyer do you want this or not?"  "Dude, I frackin paid you" "no you didn't"  "Yes I did" "where's my $, what bitcoin address?"  "Sonofanutcracker BiddingPond's got the money" etc.

2)  Put up a frackin BID NOW button.  How is anybody I email a listing to gonna bid, huh?  A new BP user will search in vain for the BID button and move on.

I respectfully disagree.  There is no requirement.  We have been greatly deceived.  Unfortunately I don't have much in the way of proof.  I've personally operated outside the FR system and not paid income tax in years.  I conclude that the IRS agrees with me since I have no legal issues.

The reasons to buy/use Bitcoins are many, but the opportunity to trade OUTSIDE the Federal Reserve system, and perhaps your country's central bank too (quite possibly hastening its demise), and its associated tax is probably one of the greatest reasons.  What I'm saying is, once you dig into it, you will discover the US Federal Income Tax is an excise on banking within the Federal Reserve System.  From a legal standpoint, bitcoins are not "income" under the Revenue Acts of the United States.  Unless of course you consent to consider them income; in this day of heavy conditioning (brainwashing), that's always an option.  I asked a tax attorney about bitcoin and he said they were "includible" in gross income.  I then said "oh, I can include them if I choose to."  And he just laughed at that.  My interpretation is... gotcha.

deleted /bitcoin folder (with its subfolders) and re-installed.  Same error.

I will say that something just didn't seem right about the initial Bitcoin install.  It never created a wallet.dat file, I searched high and low, even used the Ubuntu file search.  I thought, well maybe it's only created on first use.  So I sent 0.01 BTC from my windows box to Ubuntu.  Never arrived.  That was about the time of the freeze-up too.  Now I've got a 0/unconfirmed transaction in my windows Bitcoin (whatever becomes of those orphaned trans?).
