What stands out to me isn't the ratios, those are actually lower than expected, but the actual amount available. 29.5 MOz of silver is only about...
It's a double edged sword. Germany gets the benefit of export with a weakened Euro, but they also get stuck with buying PIGS debt (Ireland...
The real irony here is that the big boys can't invest in silver. It's too small a market. Low price, low supply, a very easy market to move and to...
This is nothing compared to 2011 or 2008, but there do seem to be some similarities with how tensions are escalating so that could change. The...
HR 1207 was passed many moons ago to Audit The Fed. Nothing came of that, and I would be very surprised if anything came of this. It doesn't...
This is a red herring. They are both alternative currencies, yes, but being an alternative doesn't imply criminal behavior for use. Lumping gold...
Wishful thinking. People have strung together tons of PS4 systems to perform complicated computations as an aggregate system. It is not uncommon...
Here is a link from MIT that is relatively recent. They brought up the risk to encryption already. This is specific to factoring. Regardless of...
The architectural difference doesn't matter at all between PGP and BitCoin. You are focusing on an example, and ignoring the point. The fact of...
The NOVA article clearly states that these computers, both small scale and medium scale, are all over the MIT campus as of 2011. So it's not the...
I apologize for not having better post restraint, but this PBS link literally admits that MIT is using quauntum computers to crack PGP keys. If...

I said it can function as currency, not that it is functioning as currency right now. Context matters. It has been currency before, and that is...
Thankfully that's exactly what it has done throughout the vast majority of inflationary environments. Has there been deflation since 2012? Maybe...
This quote is from the PBS link. The official story as of over 5 years ago. Our computers are called classical computers, too funny. How real are...
I first read about this as an Intel whitepaper in 2005. I don't care for that other site you mentioned....
Funny, because I never said gold and silver make your wealth safe. I said they are safe from inflation. As I stated before, that doesn't make it...
Please stop using the word trojan. Trojans aren't even part of the conversation. Trojans, viruses, worms, and exploits are all completely...
I like your avatar, even better than mine :] My take on this uptick is due to the Fed finally getting around to raising interest rates. Gibson's...
I don't think you understand the concept of an internet worm or how it works. It infects millions of computers with some zero day exploit and can...
