Re: It's time for miners to go on STRIKE August 14, 2011, 11:11:46 PM #2 I think alot of people are thinking of bitcoins in a different manner than what was intended (IMO).

Isn't the idea to have an alternative, de-regulated currency that's 'free' to trade?

If your mining for Profit in USD that kind of defeats the purpose.



I got into bitcoins around march. I've mined. I've bought stuff. I've sold stuff.

Only once did I ever 'sell' my coins. And that was really to just see how the exchange worked.

I'll continue to mine albeit I'm in no way a power house, even if I can't make a profit in my countries denominated currency.

As long as bitcoins aren't a 'dead' idea I'll continue to mine 'at a lose' (I live in FL and it's hot as shit here in the summer) and keep my client running for that extra node.



Hopefully one day bitcoins will become the norm and i can anonymously give funding to ideas/endeavors without worry of recourse.

And not pay a crazy percent for transactions. ( i think last year I donated over 1000$ to paypal for fees for something that in no way should cost that much).
