Eeyo posted:i don't regularly read this thread, but i just wanted to say that i totally don't understand bitcoin as some type of leftist anarchist ideal. like i get it, it (appears to be) a financial system which runs on mutual cooperation rather than trust in a central authority. but bitcoin is inherently deflationary, which will inevitably create a new capitalist class of early adopters/coiners. in a hypothetical future where bitcoin is a significant store of value, then a disproportionate amount of power will be given to people whose only contribution was to get in early. the people who wield power are the people with bitcoin, not the workers. i think the more generous interpretation is it's a tool to work around the blockades put up by the current system until the system can be dismantled, at which point... idk i guess everyone will just declare their bitcoins as valueless and work together as equals in a post-money society? i'm sure the like 99.9% of bitcoiners who think they're the future robber-baron class will just be cool with that

like i appreciate wanting crypto to be that thing, sure it'd be great if we could make a technology to work around the government clamping down hard on leftism, hell maybe even use it to ultimately render the current power structure and stratification obsolete. but boy howdy hitching your wagon to a horse made of goddamn bitcoiners does not seem like it will end anywhere near the destination you're trying to get to, even before getting into everything else that makes it a non-starter.

im certain that this currency used exclusively by people making charts and predictions about it's asymptotic growth will be the perfect platform to bring about the socialist anarchistic utopia of my dreams

kw0134 posted:right, i forgot that part of the proof of "criminal enterprise" was that fact he did call for hits. they weren't charged specifically (because CARL MARK FORCE IV may have tainted it) but the mere fact this was a thing which occurred was a major part of going from "selling drugs on the side, as all radical libertarians do" to "wannabe walter white but much less competent" quote:A search of Ulbricht’s home yielded additional evidence linking him with the site. That evidence included two USB hard drives with versions of documents related to Silk Road that were also stored on Ulbricht’s laptop. There were also handwritten notes crumpled in Ulbricht’s bedroom trash can about ideas for improving Silk Road’s vendor rating system—an initiative that Dread Pirate Roberts had just revealed through a post in a discussion forum on the site.

I sure hope someone writes a memoir or at least does an extended interview about the free for all pardon seeking going on right now. If nothing else, Ross being in prison protects women from his terrible dates. I wish I had clipped the blog post describing that blind date.

life without parole is a sentence that should not exist. this does not mean i want frosty ross to be free. it means i want a parole board to slam the door in his face repeatedly because he still has not shown any remorse for anything aside from being caught.Shame Boy posted:i think the more generous interpretation is it's a tool to work around the blockades put up by the current system until the system can be dismantled, at which point... idk i guess everyone will just declare their bitcoins as valueless and work together as equals in a post-money society? i'm sure the like 99.9% of bitcoiners who think they're the future robber-baron class will just be cool with that
