Law enforcement used to be an honorable profession. Today, it's about statistics, quotas and politics. Right and wrong isn't even a factor. Entrapment laws are intentionally skirted and called something else. These people should be ashamed of themselves.

I powered down and sold my ASICMiner stuff last month.  I still have Gen2 Avalon hardware running, but it's getting very close to going too.  Sucking 350W for 100GH. 

Right now, I'm making more with 1.5MH of GPUs than I am with 180GH of ASICs. 

Because were a mischievous bunch of miscreants  
We will just call it the start of an interest group lol

Anyways give that a quick read and you will see why its fun Ha-Ha

Bitcoin does not need them. In fact, the world will be a better place if those people and the ones gullible enough to be swayed by them do not hold Bitcoins now. Forget about them.

*Made me laugh

I'm a better human after coffee

Acting like an ass is not getting your point across? It puts people on the defensive (see what I did there?)

Be open and discuss, share links to real information.
People don't understand this situation...that's understandable. Right?
Help people understand.

You couldn't have said it better.

LOL!! You're right, it is a colossal waste of time, but it was damn fun, and I can't be more proud of my men. They preformed with honor and gallantry. Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.

Hats off to Kevin / BittBurger You actually trying to reason with these retards I'm just insulting them  but wow what a trooper. It's like he types faster than I can read. 

IMO it's not worth it.  It's unlikely a comment on an article will every change anyone's opinion or make them go get educated on a topic. Also many are probably just trolling for reactions from people, so they can troll some more.


I saw an article on CNN the other day and the only thing I posted was  "Bitcoin itself is still fine and still here, MT Gox was only a single company. Long term bitcoin will continue to move on".   Something like that.  The amount of hate responses I got from people calling me a "scammer"  or saying "you must have bitcoin huh" or "LOL this is the stupidest thing ive ever read" or "Hows it feel to lose your life savings nerd!".... it went on and on.  I was tempted to respond but realized it's not worth it.  It was quite shocking to see so many responses like that though to what I thought was a logical post on my part.

It's time to strikes back. It is really annoying most bitcoiners posts is hidden because of the noobs thumbs down. They know nothing about bitcoin. They think mtgox == bitcoin. Based no their knowledge if mtgox is dead bitcoin is also dead. lol

It's my experience that there exists no more emotional smartasses on the entire planet than here on this forum. So please follow this link:

and scroll down to the comments section and RELESE THE BEAST!

Show these retards how stupid and uneducated they are. Insult their logic and grammar. Hold nothing back. I've been trolln' them for the last 3 hours and the zombies just keep coming. We need the best and this forum is where they all are!!!

Hi everyone. I'm a business attorney in New York City.  I've been involved in cryptocurrency for some time now.  I hope I can be of some help on this board.  I can't give you legal advice via posts, but if you PM me, we may be able to discuss the particulars of your business.

Full disclosure: There's no such thing as an expert or specialist in bitcoin law, and I am certainly not one.  I'm an attorney with experience in securities, civil fraud and other financial matters with particular emphasis in the tech realm.  There is almost zero judicial and legislative guidance out there for us practitioners, so many of us are trying to keep ourselves out in front of every new development as they arise.

I'm daily fascinated by what bitcoin is and what it can become, and I'm looking forward to becoming part of the community!

Because bitcoin is so easy to use and setup, it will be hard to enforce strict licensing. It will just be a fee to make up for the fees the banks don't get anymore. Eventually, market forces will drive down the fee into oblivion.

How would this ruling impact someone who buys and sells bitcoin in the US, using localbitcoins.com?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) today
published two administrative rulings, providing additional information on whether a person’s
conduct related to convertible virtual currency brings them within the Bank Secrecy Act’s (BSA)
definition of a money transmitter. The first ruling states that, to the extent a user creates or
“mines” a convertible virtual currency solely for a user’s own purposes, the user is not a money
transmitter under the BSA. The second states that a company purchasing and selling convertible
virtual currency as an investment exclusively for the company’s benefit is not a money
transmitter
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


It would seem that this second phrase would apply?

So if I buy and sell bitcoins in an attempt to make a profit, using localbitcoins.com (or a similar service), then that activity is not considered to be a money transmitter, subject to the federal and state laws?

I wonder if this has anything to with the current behavior of banks lately

And so we ride fellas...........thats the spirit
