Re: Cassandra! Andrew Hoffman
I'm finding that if you price anything in dollars you have to add 13% just for security and insulation purposes.

Not so fast EE_ people keep telling me that it takes a tremendous amount of electricity to mine those Bitcoins...

If it wasn't for their centralized and privatized pools, there would be no more bitcoins.
Is it a race to zero? I can't tell.

It can't be nearly as bad as mining Silver.
If I were mining just Silver I'd probably want a landslide to come and cave my mine.
Collect the Silverstein insurance payout.

Gold guys would never have it that way,
they'd also want the 3 laying hens in exchange to "top off" the trade. :)
Is close I think though.
3 laying hens for an oz of silver, 2 and you're just being jewish....

Give the goat herder an oz of silver and he'll go and buy you the hens, but don't expect any change back on the gold... :)
Re: Cassandra! Andrew Hoffman
Just keep it all in goats, you're trying to manipulate the market with your hen trade inclusion.
15 goats for an oz. of Gold.
2 for an oz. of Silver.
then I will give you 1 goat for 5 hens.

One would have to watch out, with the hens all it would take would be access to a rooster and then you would have a case of inflation of your assets with their value dropping in proportion to the rising population of cluckers.

Only on GSUS could a thread about a Hoffman article on gold and silver turn into a trading house for goats and chickens. Someone please pass me the Haldol.
