ThickAsThieves: one pdf is just a newer version of the other i think
pankkake: by the way, I'd use other currencies converted to USD, too. otherwise, you're ignoring perfectly working exchanges
davout: ThickAsThieves: i see two PDFs
ThickAsThieves: it's in the Bill Analysis tab
ThickAsThieves: i dont need to make a synopsis, they already did
ThickAsThieves: * As of February 7, 2014, Mt.Gox placed a "pause on all [BTC] withdrawal requests” in addition to a continued "back-log of [USD] withdrawals”. As a result, it is no longer a qualified exchange for the Winkdex calculation.
ThickAsThieves: Winkdex is calculated by blending the trading prices in U.S. dollars for the top three (by volume) qualified Bitcoin Exchanges*
the20year2: So what's your synopsis TAT?
Bugpowder: Time to update the MPOEbot settlement price index?
the20year2: Which bill? The NY one?
ThickAsThieves: "Facing legal action, creators of COINY have ended the project and COINYE is now Lost in the World, but may have been nothing more than a Dark Fantasy."
diametric: davout: I'm not disagreeing with that
ThickAsThieves: for some reason the Coinye story is in that pdf too
davout: diametric: the whole point is that no matter the way you put it, banning bitcoin and pretending to be a democracy are mutually exclusive
diametric: davout: alright I'll concede then it may not apply
asciilifeform: contemplating design of btc-related anything while assuming sympathetic (or even grudgingly-cooperative) bureaucrats is like designing tanks and assuming a cooperative enemy.
ThickAsThieves: for the rest
ThickAsThieves: check the Bill Analysis tab
davout: diametric: distributed timestamping is what blockchain is about, voting, you name it
ThickAsThieves: "This bill makes clarifying changes to current law to ensure that various forms of alternative currency such as digital currency, points, coupons, or other objects of monetary value do not violate the law when those methods are used for the purchase of goods and services or the
ThickAsThieves: yknow they do explain the bill in the PDS
diametric: I thought it had to have an inherent use
davout: saying that law enforcement will fuck you regardless of what the law says is orthogonal to the thing being debated
diametric: Whats the legal definition of a commodity anyway?
diametric: davout: It doesn't, but those that enforce it will find something it is relevant too, and you're kidding yourself if you think bitcoin wouldn't be it.
davout: diametric: it's relevant to the liberty reserve usd for example i'd say
davout: diametric: i have no idea, does it have to be relevant to something?
diametric: What currency would meet the legal criteria of this legislation
diametric: I'm curious what its relevant too if not bitcoin, or diametric-tokens.
diametric: davout: give me an example it is relevant to then
davout: as much as in theory than in practice
davout: the point is that this whole thing is irrelevant to bitcoin
CiPi: diametric; i think you loose the train man. :)
diametric: the first sentence outlawed the putting of bitcoin into circulation.
davout: it can't follow that the second sentence prohibits bitcoin
davout: since the first sentence didn't outlaw bitcoin, the second sentence is just making exceptions
diametric: davout: but the second sentence outlaws anyone using bitcoin if its not tied to USD.
davout: but it has the properties of a commodity
asciilifeform: let them outlaw farting, as well.
davout: what if i told you bitcoin was a commodity
diametric: davout: I'm missing how you think the first sentence doesn't ban using something as money other than USD.
davout: it *might* be used to outlaw mining, but nothing else
davout: i'm putting it in circulation as valueless tokens
diametric: Then the second sentence begins making exceptions.
diametric: No it does, the first sentence clearly states if you put into circulation as money anything but USD, you're in violation.
