My bro,

You obviously didn't read what i wrote... ...and "@DarthCoin"? is calling me a shitcoiner?

Come back here and read this thing. You should apologize and adjust your tune accordingly.

I am offended by your baseless insult.

How do you know when you're speaking with a person who could very easily and swiftly add great value to your life?

When you act like that, you can never know.

Time is simply part of the output when you have inputs of mass and velocity.

Hell no, take it back!

I don't own anything but bitcoin. I sold everything and DCA out of a tent, go to work in a pickup truck at 5am in front of Home Depot to support my Bitcoin addiction.

Nice skim job, buddy.

The market already assumes the bitcoins altogether totals 21,000,000. So such an event would make a tiny splash and whoever he is would very soon have a lot of dollars and not a lot of bitcoins. This is so unlikely to happen that I'm comfortable dismissing it as impossible.

I used to make lightning bolts out of opal and trade glass-blowers for cash or really nice functional artwork. Lightning bolts, teddy bears and crescent moons were all they ever wanted. One of my fondest memories is the time I kicked it with Bob Snodgrass, a very well known dead-head glass artist, and I sold him every lighning bolt i had made, over an hundred. I only charged him five bucks a piece for them, but he became very focused and excited when i told him I had lightning bolts. I could tell he would have bought them all at any price I wanted. I could have charged him twenty and he would have bought them. Bitcoin is a world-changing discovery, and the Grateful Dead are a world-changing group of musicians. If you guys never heard of it, the String Cheese Incident is a soft fork of the Grateful Dead. i always wondered if someone in this group is a big contributor to the creation of the Lightning network. After reading this, it wouldn't surprise me.

Why is stacker news community upvoting and tipping this advertisement for malware?

Is it not blind faith when someone skims the words and assumes that they have a decent summary of what was written? Decent enough to formulate a response without having to think too critically?

Alas, I have simply forgotten the day and age in which i live. The age of TLDR and WTFism. Spare yourself any further annoyance, as I have answered my own question.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Short answer, no.

Long answer...

I feel like the whole political circus includes the voting process, that the various participants entertaining us on stage are a tube-fed merry-go-round of controlled opposition, and that contribution to any part of it should be viewed as contribution to an actual monster

My bro, I don't believe that you read this post.

Bitcoin is money, not currency. It is the best tool for transporting value across space and time. It is the discovery and flawless application of true scarcity. It is the first and only truly scarce asset. It should not be considered alongside the likes of the innumerable impostors, of which not a single one can boast these qualities.

That being said, the problem I am facing is that whenever I mention Bitcoin, all of the negative connotations of the impostors are conjured up with it.

How do I communicate the superiority of Bitcoin to people who have already round-filed it because of it's widespread miscategorisation and labeling as cryptocurrency?

I played with your heart, got lost in the game.

What's the trouble with just using your brain as your off-grid wallet? Also, I have trained myself such that any service requesting my identity is poison. It takes some getting used to, but I get along just fine without it.

If they have your private key, and you have to give them your identity, how is it any different from a bank? Using a bank to hold your bitcoins kinda defeats the purpose of owning bitcoin.

Thank you for the quote, it just sort of blew my mind.
