So let's try this again. Thanks goes to Bloomie for providing us a new home!At first, i was going to go off on how and why this thread has been moved here but suffice it to say that this thread was one of casualties of theymos's and BadBear's censorship for discussing Bitcoin XT on bitcointalk.org.This thread is also a continuation of these two gold threads which i started first going back to 8/9/11 with over 1.45M combined views and over 35K combined replies . It consists of one of the longest and most interesting historical sources of information for Bitcoin; especially as it relates to gold, silver, and pm's in general:August 09, 2011, 05:28:06 AMTo be clear, discussion here will not be confined to that of precious metals. It is meant to be multi-dimensional to discuss the important aspects of the day in Bitcoin world. There really is no such thing as off topic and all posters are welcome (altho trolling is strongly discouraged). I, and many others, have found this approach to foster a helpful consolidation of important information in the space and also helps identify who are the most important and most valuable contributors to the thread for ongoing continuity and reliability of information. Which, given the degree of censorship going on in vast parts of the Bitcoin space right now, will be rare.Enjoy!
