mircea_popescu: <Luke-Jr> it can help Bitcoin without trying to run the show <<< look, you know as well as i do the foundation is essentially purposeless, but has been recently re-purposed on the fly so as to give the usg muppets some pleasurable way to waste their time.

mircea_popescu: consider that there's no usg to bail you out in btc.

benkay: I don't know that MP cares about convincing a small slice of the American technocracy that the USG is broken and/or dying.
jurov: he seems to go into lengthy elaborations only to end each article "usg will kill it anyway"
benkay: he's marketeering new paradigms to undermine the legitimacy of the USG. I can get behind that.
jurov: s,dice is more people too afaik... but as you can see it's clouded in fud "gonna be closed by usg"

BingoBongo: The most surprising thing about bitcoin would be if the USG doesn't ignore all of the things it says it opposes so it can leverage the BTC network to transfer value to its more expendable allies
BingoBongo: I doubt the whole USG would though
BingoBongo: USG may request, at least in parts
