You're right, it's not completely anonymous. But it can be made anonymous by shifting your BTC among various addresses under your control. Remember that you don't have to get 1 address and use that all the time. In fact a "best practice" is to create new addresses for every transaction you...

USD paper currency remains the #1 medium of exchange for money launderers and drug dealers.

So I see you crawled out of your hole after your last thread got flushed to chit chat.

Or even better use one of the open source c++ JSON libraries available on the internet.

Ever hear of MetaTrader?

The Chinese restriction on BTC exchange has no fundamental impact on Bitcoin's core libertarian purpose. i.e. individuals are still free to exchange BTC for goods and services without an intermediary.

OP will surely deliver a copy of the message from IB

I know all about the so-called internet kill switch and I love this thread. I simply found OP's cognitive leap from a message from IB to the internet kill switch to be quite a reach.

Moderators, please move this thread to prisonplanet.com or infowars.com :D

You made quite a leap from a message you say you received from IB to Obama's internet kill switch. Then you throw around accusations of not being "real traders" whatever that is. I've received nothing but routine messages from IB lately. Maybe you should consult your doctor about adjusting...

That's good. I'll have to remember it. :cool:

It seems like ever since Bernie Madoff got outed any financial thing people don't like gets labeled a Ponzi scheme. I guess we can thank the MSM for that.

No. Pyramid schemes and "Ponzi" schemes are very specific processes that do not apply to Bitcoin at all. Picking and choosing characteristics that things have in common doesn't prove they're the same thing.

I know I said I'd post some cointegration results but I never bothered because I couldn't reliably find cointegrations among stock pairs in the same sector. I tried pairs combinations among the stocks recently posted here over various periods of various period lengths. Nothing jumped out at...

I remember the inflationary environment in the 80's. To keep employees from jumping ship for higher pay, my employer was doing "compression" raises i.e. non-merit pay increases to keep up with inflation. I'm not sure what would happen in a deflationary environment. (Actually I think...

That's only true if you have savings. If you can believe what you read these days, most Americans are one pay check away from a homeless camp.

There's not an infinite amount of gold in the world either and yet many are clamoring for a return to the gold standard. You're right it's not the way the banking system operates but maybe that's a good thing. The only real "backing" in any modern currency today is debt - promises to repay...
