And be it further enacted, That if any of the gold or silver coins which shall be struck or coined at the said Mint shall be debased or made worse as to the proportion of fine gold or fine silver therein contained, or shall be of less weight or value than the same ought to be pursuant to connivance of any of the officers or persons who shall be employed at the said Mint, for the purpose of profit or gain, officers or persons shall embezzle any of the metals which shall at any time be committed to their charge for the purpose of being coined at the said Mint, every such officer or person who shall commit any or either of the said offences, shall be deemed guilty of felony, and shall suffer death.

"fiat money ... is counterfeiting by the state.
The punishment of a member (legislature) who should move for such a (legal tender) law ought to be death".

btw: "ideologically motivated" is only partially true. Don't forget, that these "enthusiasts" are all getting paid by number goes up. So, there is some incentive. Besides securing the network. imho

Alex, I am curious to know how the traffic between the two worlds is going.

Die Achillessehne des jetzige Fiatgeld- und damit Staatssystems sind Staatsanleihen. Kauft die keiner mehr, ist es vorbei mit dem Zauber.

"THE ETFS ARE A LOBSTER TRAP. BITCOIN GOES IN. NEVER COMES OUT."
why do we put people at the helm who can't tell the difference between meritocracy and mediocracy?
"In 1549, Philipp Melanchthon, a companion of Martin Luther and a harsh critic of Copernicus, was provoked into an incendiary speech: "But certain people, either out of a desire for innovation or to show their cleverness, have concluded that the earth moves. They claim that neither the eighth sphere [the fixed stars] nor the sun rotates... But it shows a lack of honor and taste to publicly express such ideas, the example is dangerous. It is the duty of a good Christian to accept the truth as revealed by God and to trust in it."

Being more reform-minded than the Reformation obviously makes you lonely.
Galileo and Copernicus also had few friends, I suppose.
