Man these bankers are totally destrying the world, for like a 100 years well really way longer, wow what assholes...geez man....oh,wait....is it not true that they hold this power over us because they control the creation of the money....or is it that we have faith in and use the money...I mean wow, golly, if that's the case, I mean shucks...I guess if we stopped using their money they wouldn't really have any power over you...cause like all the people that they'd pay to "do stuff to you" would be getting paid with their old crappy usury money....and well gosh we the people "hated it" ;} and moved on...
you know why bitcoin didn;t/isn't working....it's creation wasn;t transparent and collectively created with the benefit of everyone in mind

Nope, you did not. It was /u/ethernet.
I'm still learning my way around here and, as you know, the thing that he sent me wasn't saved in my Inbox. I'm sure that, if you ask him, he can send you a copy...or maybe it can be searched for.
In any case, it was an exceptionally-well-crafted reply and was chock-full of citations and links. Good reading--it taught me a lot about BTC (mainly how it was created, by whom, and why) that I had no idea about before.
That's actually a great idea re: CL! I'd even go a step further and insist on BTC payments only if I were a "true" evangelist. Right now I only hold about $600 in BTC and, as I told you, I have that app that tracks its price/volume 24/7/365 and it will auto-buy in certain circumstances--for instance, if BTC goes under $150 it automatically buys $200 worth, if it goes under $200 but not to $150 it buys $50 worth, and so on. It can be set to sell at certain levels but I'm not selling ANYTHING. As BTC becomes more popular and accepted the price will likely only go up thanks to the finite nature of the currency.
The only thing that sketches me out a bit is that it's almost TOO perfect. Time will tell!
