Zitat des Tages von Roger Ver:
The U.S. is making it extremely difficult for me to stop being American.
I'm motivated by the positive ways in which Bitcoin use being widespread will make the world a better place.
I am tired of seeing real criminals, with lots of victims being ignored, while traditional law enforcement is busy going after perpetrators of victimless crimes such as those involved in the Silk Road Marketplace.
Setting regulatory certainty is very important for bitcoin. I'm opposed to the regulations, but the bitcoin businesses need to know the rules of the game in order to move ahead.
If the world's using bitcoin, governments won't be able to fund wars through inflation like they do today.
Bitcoin will experience many bubbles along its way to improving the lives of everyone on the planet. I'm not concerned with the short-term price fluctuations.
Bitcoin is coming from a bunch of young computer nerds who saw this thing and thought it was neat. A lot of the early bitcoiners are 19-year-old kids, still living at home with their parents, and they don't have any business experience.
Gox is the worst-run business in the history of the world.
Silicon Valley is a great place for Bitcoin, since everyone understands computers, and there are lots of libertarians running around.
Once people see Bitcoin and how it works, they realise this isn't just a flash in the pan.
If the U.S. government tries to restrict or clamp down, that just means there will be many more bitcoin businesses in Hong Kong and Singapore, and all those Americans will miss out on all the opportunities.
If bitcoin is more expensive or slower than traditional financial systems, people aren't going to use it.
Money laundering is not a crime. It's just because certain men with guns don't like what other people are doing with their own money, so they decide it's okay to lock those people in a cage.
I think examples of free market transactions between peaceful people using Bitcoin and the Internet, I think it's a wonderful thing. It's going to make the world a better place.
Voluntaryism is the idea that all human interactions should be free of coercion, based on individual self-ownership. This is in contrast to socialism, which is based on coercion justified by collective ownership.
If you look at the market cap of Ethereum before the hard fork and the split into Ethereum Classic, the combined market cap of Ethereum and Ethereum Classic is greater than the market cap before the split - and everybody got what they want.
Bernie Madoff... was regulated up and down and every which way, and it didn't do any good - he ran away with everyone's money.
I consider the guys at Mt. Gox my friends.
I think most politicians have almost no understanding of economics; otherwise, they wouldn't have become politicians.
Bitcoin is here to stay.
