I’d like to hear if Carr has any additional reasoning than just money.

So long as there is no drinking or gambling, SA will support it.

Seems very similar to performing at the White House Correspondents Dinner

How would they get him out of the building?

An ad hominem denial

Because the best way to keep his wealth is to push wherever he can towards corporate fascism.

Or deliver the Aid. Win Win. (Doesn’t seem like the right word, but nevermind.)

The downside to the plan failing is that they alleviate suffering.

You think that means one or two might slip through?

I’ve only heard of Jamón ibérico.

He can have a voice, but he doesn’t necessarily deserve to be paid.

Gaza reporters are being censored and they aren’t even asking for money.

Tate deserves less than nothing.

Other people deserve a voice.

Stopping people being slaughtered is more important than being able to put 2 specific words together.

The only excuse is if the arrests make the anti genocide protests more prominent.

Can’t all the protesters support Palestine ActionS and sidestep the law?

What about swapping Crimeia for everything upto and including Moscow?

Ballpark calculations

Winning a block gets you 3.125 BTC + approx. 0.06BTC in fees (2%). $6000 in transactions fees with 4000 transactions per block = $1.50 per transaction.

When I first looked at Bitcoin it was around $10/BTC and electricity to mine (on a cpu) was about the same.

The people who make money mining bitcoin have a combination of very cheap electricity and/or next generation asic hardware.

mining has not compensated for mining for a long time.

Fees are less than 2%

The average commission payment is now 1.5 bitcoins. almost half of the reward

I think you have the wrong units. The average fee is 1.5 USD.

And it will pay off only in 1.7 years

This is quite quick. Last time I looked the it was around 3 years. Most of the cost comes from buying the hardware.

The assumption that bitcoin is only used by criminals is much less accurate.

It came from here but this source has more detail.
