assbot: Logged on 12-01-2015 15:02:29; mircea_popescu: davout: it occurs to me that there's a rather trivial way to split gavincoins from bitcoins other than randomly attempting a double-spend, simply include some coinbase-tainted coins in your tx after the fork has occurred
<< this is true but it only works after you got some split.

<< heh. once you put it like that, it burns.
mircea_popescu: "Lets not forget the real paid shills on /r/bitcoin as well. The fuckwits who were paid to spread the usage of 'bit' as a unit. I wonder how much BitPay spent on that one."
<< that's a kinda funny one. yet another place where derps diverge from mp, derps fail & get burned, derps dun learn.
