the satoshi whitepaper wow ... if that had a handwritten version that would be auctioned for zillions in a few years hah
yes well, i never considered him THAT evil but lately ... gates too, its just like
those people have no clue about reality, right ? they never did a hard day in their life, its like euh
on one of those presidential debates before the elections Trump said something like "o well i had to come from nothing, all i had was a little loan from my father"
so i wonder, cos if i talk about a little loan from my father, its like 10 or 20 euros to buy some catfood or snacks and pay back the next week
what does a little loan constitute for these people where terms like "smallcap" (i have to look up the exact number i thought it was under 2 billion hold on)
ah
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/small-cap.asp
seems i wasnt far off the upper limit hahah
but this willinly destroying peoples capital and actually whole lives i mean how many would there be in 2018 who have about their life built around crypto, right ? not just businesses or rich people like dan or ned or what is it here or that banfeld fucker but families like, who work IN it, and evolve around it
its like they have zero regard for that, while it IS spending cash, its moneyh from nothing its the bottom input they havent had since they had to abolish slavery and the "colonies" which are now "developing" markets i think, not even underdeveloped anymore
thats probably a "bad" word you can't say "underdevelopped" ... meanwhile i just heard from a penpal ... -gal in vietnam as i was asking on this "controversial" internet law i read about on minds.com what the fuss was about ... someone got totally convicted over the top, the crowd rioted lol, they set the police station on fire ... talk about mentality
no wonder the yankees had to cave in after 20 years ... but if i hear from people who LIVE in vietnam and people who LIVE in china, its nothing like on tv, but the poverty is also nothing like on tv ... the governments want to play white monkey in a suit ... prestigious projects and meanwhile if there's a flood the size of ten times belgium here there's virtually nothing that gets done (i mean its not like the peasants will rise or something, they GOT nothing after all)
talking 'bout flood and asia makes me think about fukushima (here i go again jumping timelines
.. back then they wanted to evacuate an area twice the size of belgium for the fallout ... and we have like TWO nuclear plants here, right ...
but it can't happen here (o zappa again)
i hope satoshi is somewhere on a beach, plain or mountain sipping his favourite rat poison getting buzzed and not giving a shit about this world anymore lol
he deserves it
nirvana for all i care, but to see how the vultures swoop down on it, i hope he's not paying attention
almost like a saint, coming in like "o hai, i have this light-disruptive idea, here it is"
"keep the money, now i'm out and you'll never see me again"
"yea keep the fame too, BYE"
it almost thwarts imagination that the guy would even be human behaving like that :)
GLAD i could pour out a little on this reply here, you really saved the moment (again :p )
now for SBD and STEEM ... how about $25 by tomorrow , if buffett and gates were to attone for their sins
wow ... another two-page essay before i knew it ...
heh 
yeah i read about the floods in Asia and even something about ETH miners getting washed out and causing havoc on the Ether blockchain oh okay it's a little exchange called F#$oin must be because they have so much news to air no time left for that right!
i think enrollment into Steemit will in fact increase our Coins value, reputation and is an excellent way to get the population acquainted with crypto currency in general and as a way to a self sufficient or added income by showing their creativity and make some coins blogging it sounds like a really great opportunity. i concur what bug could i have stepped on last week and made STEEM 25$ tomorrow? :)
its a nice display of this force-of-habit phenomenon, the "humans are creatures of habit" cliché that actually should mean that they are extinct by now i mean there is not one single reason in the world (in the world of mister spock and sherlock holmes i suppose) why anyone would stay on facebook if they can migrate to a place that gets them SOMETHING for anything
but they don't :)
probably too much hassle but mainly because no one ever heard of it i mean i just read about it last november or something ... and also because
cryptoez is criminul haxx0rs , right? all drug dealers in lambos bitchslapping their bitch around snorting coke bought with dark money
something people like zuck and friends will be more than happy to re-inforce
until they have their own
but ... i really dont know what the impact would be if overnight 1 billion people got on steemit creating like 5 billion accounts or something lol
my guess is serious devaluation overnight
but it could be the opposite as the supply is steady (as i understand its a set number, right ? with no cap on top) but the demand would increase like 1000x
after which the whales would dump it and the plankton would panic
i suppose
as usual heh
it takes time for people to realize the potential, i remember talking about bitcoin and the reaction was one of disbelief that they were traded publicly and had value and that was only a few years ago and some of those same people still have reservations. funny thing though i have noticed that all of them have problems managing their phones so now i'm thinking lack of knowledge of digital products like computers,phones, and tablets. Modern technology they have because they have money but what it does or how to use it is at a minimum or get by at a need to know level.
i didnt believe it either, i sometimes wondered what i missed out on by not gpu-mining all those years ago ... by the time i did i could barely scrape one BTC together before the card burnt out (which would still be nice if gox didnt take it) but thinking about that is wasted time ofcourse
i think the underlying problem with tek today is it used to be the domain of the wizard ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0138704/ )
solder your stuff together and all that, then it became more manageable ... the "personal" computer, the legends like c64 (but those still werent very diy) then the pc got its own diy scene which seriously helped to understand what goes whree and what does what but a phone or a tablet
or even a laptop , theres no need to understand anything, and if it breaks you're not gonna open it and check part by part which one it could be you just throw it away, right?
i think i'll stay oldskool like that, cheap smartphones and my pcs as expensive as i can afford ... not really, the main pc would be but i prefer too much of a minimal system to see how far it runs (which means no windows on any but the main pcs ofcourse)
nobody needs to know and "the industry" likes that ... tek savvy consumers arent really good if you want to sell them the next model yearly, they might start tinkering hahah
i think the more success stories about bitcoin reach main media the more it will attract
simply "cuz MONEY !!!"
i got my c64 cos the old man bought one cos his friend had one and then he didnt know what to do with it, his old vmo-buddy tried to train me or something i dont know, always came over every week with a load of photocopied book and a shoebox full of 5inch floppies lol i had a few thousand and then this thing called "power cartridge" that let you literally freeze the computer at right where it was and took you to the code (assembler it was processing at that very moment) probably helped a little too in my understanding of the von neumann architecture (i hear vn machines are something else)
but it was considered useless, i was like nine years old , here in hickville, there WAS no IT in schools so when i didnt do my homework they took away the computer
like .... DUH! (now being 2018 and all that) its hard to blame them, parents and all, but it didnt help in my liking this place hahah (it runs deep)
look at it this way, the less they know the more business is available (if you live in a place where you can actually run business BEFORE you have a million cash to spare :)
im gonna leave the replies for tomorrow i spent quite some time on my post today, fixing up my steemterm scripts to illustrate, i think there's a botnet brewing, or else someone is pointing out the dangers
see you around (tomorrow probably lol)
