Oh dear God in heaven do NOT even think it, much less say it! Good God man, do you have ANY idea the soul sucking den of evil you are making light of? Imagine, you are just a humming along, all happy as can be with your shotgunned modems and your overclocked Celeron pumping 600MHz with Win98 stripped down like a used Buick all hot rodded when BAM...you hit the tar pit that is Geocities. |

Suddenly all the fans scream to life, desperately trying to keep the Comet Cursor that suddenly is hanging a fricking pocket watch off your arrow like a swing ball of snot from blowing your CPU, your modems strain under a bazillion animated GIFs, while you are blinded by a neon purple background with snot green text in the always evil "OMG Ponies!" style, complete with little stardust shit dripping off their "brilliant" |

prose, when SLAM the overload of total lameness kills Win98 and you are staring at a BSOD, which sadly is kinda comforting at that moment because at least it ain't fricking purple or swinging snot clocks. So don't joke about Geocities pal, those of us that lived through it will end up having nightmares! That is like joking about Bonzi Buddy to PC repairman, you just DON'T, okay? |

joepie92, computers are inherently insecure, and likely will be for generations. |

It is not clear to me that a crypto-currency can survive under those conditions. |

crypto-currency isn't suppose to secure a computer |

all we need is zerocoin to be integrated with bitcoin and it'll be as secure as can be. the rest is up to the user |
|
04:58
🔗
|
ryonaloli |
and for the record, anyone using windows isn't going to be secure anyway |
|
04:59
🔗
|
joepie92 |
phillipsj: the short answer to that, is that Bitcoin is not inherently any less secure than traditional (online/digital) banking methods, and can actually be more secure |

BTW to the traditional banking system, it is "secure" if the customer has "zero liability" ie: fraudulent transactions can be reversed. |
