Well. It's open source. Feel free to point out the back door. The *only* way you're moving out of a wallet is with keys. The only instances I'm aware of "unauthorised transfer" involve third party access to the keys. This exists outside BTC and thus it cannot protect from it.

It doesn't matter how good your locks are if you keep the keys on a nail in a post at the edge of the driveway.

Personally I got far more faith in BTC's ability to keep shit where it should be than I do a bank.

Aaaaand it's gone.

I'm not really here to convince you otherwise, but you've certainly been warned.

100% of the initial investment revenue was generated by criminals attempting to launder money. Every company that touched it was a criminal enterprise, and they all still are.

It's completely possible the US government will jump into the game next and buy a bunch of it with fiat currency they printed the same day, but that doesn't make it any less of a scam. The price will certainly go up if the US government invests billions of dollars into it, but I'd still rather have gold and silver coinage personally. Less chance of it going *poof.*

Pretty sure they've been grabbin' some - but not in a way that causes inflation in their fiat... Accepting payment fo taxes n the like... I see a 2023 article: "the Treasury is sitting on a stash of 207,189 bitcoin".

It's far less of a scam than fiat currencies. BTC backed by cryptographic proof of work. Fiats is backed by .gov "because I said so" that inevitably loses out to the reality of trying to operate a system of infinite growth inside a system that unarguably demonstrates limited resources.

BTC on the other hand has a fixed quantity. Which is why making more of it doesn't really push the price down, beyond the obvious supply/demand relationship. The actuality is supply constantly drops as it's held and removed from circulation. Then add all the folks with 'lost' coin in wallets they don't have keys for no mo...

As for gold and silver coinage, it's already costing more to make than it's worth - using precious metals isn't going to help that. Even paper - and now polymer - money isn't cost effective... and why the strong push towards digitisation of currency.

That's going to be happening win, lose, or draw - but BTC at least gives you an option you can trust. And one that will not steadily devalue as a function of inflation.

This is called intellectual dishonesty.

Gold is worth ~$2650 an ounce. I bought in when it was 2k a little over a year ago. I don't know how much it costs to actually mint gold coinage, but I have serious doubts it's more than 2k per coin.

Here another thought - they had no issues arresting Kim Dotcom for running MegaUpload, they had no issues arresting Ross Ulbricht for running Silk Road.

The person responsible for creating and running bitcoin is obviously guilty of all sorts of criminal offenses, not the least of which is money laundering.

Why hasn't that person been arrested? The government just couldn't figure out who it was? X for doubt, bro.

Just watch. This dumbass country will flip back to the same corporatist assholes that hold the democratic party from the actual left. and then we'll flip again, and on and on. People forget what happened more than 4 years ago, as if we were living well under trump and not in free fall thanks to his poor understanding of civics and diplomacy.

Exceot loving child rape, loving Isreal and murder via guns were all favorite Republican pass times now so why are you upset? Or is it only cool and based when it's Epstien's good friend Mr. "Grab 'em by the pussy" Trump and his Jewish son in law do it?

>>1368759
lol, you think there will still be elections? Trump is big brained and understands that Americans are too short sighted to take their medicine properly. America has been a bad girl and now daddy has come home and he's got the belt and there will be no resistance.

>>1368728

That's my thinkin'. There's only one way to stop the next semi-sane knuckledick to sit in that chair. The truly laughable part is there's some of you actually calling for it, and enough apathetic around the concept it's the most viable it's been in a *long* time.

I read your headline, OP,and got all excited as I thought Genocide CCP Joe had pardoned tRump. What a disappointment

say, OP, Crystal Wright is a hot black chick. I heard there is a real market for conservative hot black chick pundits. I'm a person of color and I was thinking of transitioning. I give my self a boner when I look in the mirror when I'm all dolled up! As i can pass easily(not for white, but for a woman).Should I keep the penis part a secret if I try for CandaceOwen's old job at the Daily Wire? What happens if Benny Sharpiro tries to "grab me by the pussy"?

Ski mask + unauthorized recording= threat to any reasonable person in a similar situation

False equivalence. There is established jurisprudence that celebrities have a different expectation of privacy than regular people.

>Dumb shits like you think putting a fence around your backyard means that shit's private
No, it means we have a legal expectation of privacy.

>Ski mask + unauthorized recording= threat to any reasonable person in a similar situation
People can wear masks for their privacy. You aren't entitled to know what everyone around you looks like. Nothing unusual about wearing a ski mask outside in December either.

>There is established jurisprudence that celebrities have a different expectation of privacy than regular people.
For publishing information about them, not recording them. You wanted to try to sound smart, you should have brought up 1/2 party consent, of course I never said jack shit about audio recording.

Seems to me you don't know much about privacy law.

>What is Curtilage for 1000, Alex?"
Something not a part of this discussion, because I said recording from the sidewalk. Also, you're thinking of curtilage for the purposes of a police search/arrest, eg an officer cannot arrest someone on their curtilage without a warrant. However there is plenty of case law that says cops don't need a fucking warrant to either observe or record anything in plain fucking view on private property, even if it's on the fucking curtilage (or hell, INDOORS). Police helicopters flying over your house do not constitute a fucking search, vis a vis the 4th amendment, for example, even if they can see shit that wouldn't be visible from the ground without a ladder.

You'd sound like less of a dumbass if you'd just said nuh-uh instead of mouthing off about half-remembered bullshit that doesn't actually support your argument.

>People can wear masks for their privacy. You aren't entitled to know what everyone around you looks like. Nothing unusual about wearing a ski mask outside in December either.
Did you know that wearing a mask while intentionally stalking/harassing someone can and has been used by many DA's to enhance criminal penalties for stalking/harassment?

>For publishing information about them, not recording them
There is no such semantical divide between recording and posting, especially since doxxing is already a legal concept that carries its own criminal penalties.

>You wanted to try to sound smart, you should have brought up 1/2 party consent, of course I never said jack shit about audio recording.
1/2 party consent only applies if someone is participating in the conversation. Recording someone from a distance isn't participating in a conversation. Yet another false equivalency.

>Seems to me you don't know much about privacy law.
Yet again more projection.

>Something not a part of this discussion,
If you knew much about privacy law, you would know about curtilage.

say, ALL CAPS CANDIDATE COCONUT COLLECTOR, I have a greeeat idea for a nat. sports team to bring a fractured nation together. Local state rep teams, blue vs red, water swamp polo, with real gators, but the gators are fenced off with underwater fencing coming 1' above the surface. There are basket ball nets on both ends, and the players don't move but pass new laws written on dead fish by throwing them to teammates in from of them. Getting a fish in the opposing teams net gets a law passed. Getting a fish eaten by a gator kills the bill. Winning teams work their way up to the Senate. The playoffs every 4 yrs decide POTUS. Old timers like Pelosi get to stay in mire sedate areas, and we pervs get to see her old dugs wobble in a swimsuit, and AOC and Nancy Mace will draw a lot of eyes. SCOTUS will serve as referees. Losing a hand or 2 will be a sign of a respected statesman. Potus and opposing leader will serve as coaches.
