How to Sell Bitcoins on eBay Without Getting Fleeced? Use FedEx

Posted on by

“Roger Hughes, who deals in Litecoin, a digital currency similar to Bitcoin, recently published a blog post describing this hack. During an online chat, an eBay representative told him that anyone selling bitcoins on eBay would be safeguarded by the company if they move their bitcoins onto a physical computing device, such as a thumb drive, and then send that to the buyer. If you send through UPS or FedEx, you can get delivery confirmation.  Bitcoins are essentially addresses on the internet, but you can’t spend them without an associated encryption key, and these keys can be moved onto thumb drives or offline computers or even onto things like pieces of paper or physical coins.”

Air strike kills 15 civilians attending wedding in Yemen

Posted on by

“Fifteen people on their way to a wedding in Yemen were killed in an air strike after their party was mistaken for an al Qaeda convoy, local security officials said on Thursday.  The officials did not identify the plane in the strike in central al-Bayda province, but tribal and local media sources said that it was a drone.  ‘An air strike missed its target and hit a wedding car convoy, ten people were killed immediately and another five who were injured died after being admitted to the hospital,’ one security official said.  Five more people were injured, the officials said.  The United States has stepped up drone strikes as part of a campaign against Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP).”

When the FDA Declared War on a Texas AIDS Patient

Posted on by

“One thing the movie does well is show how those in charge of these monopoly organizations have little concern for peoples’ welfare, and how real doctors and patients are unable to effectively fight the system. It also depicts the police, the IRS, and border agents are the enforcement arm of this crony capitalist system.  Most people never see the American medical establishment exposed for what it is. Dallas Buyers Club shows the system at its very worst, a crony capitalist combination of the profit motive armed with the vast enforcement power of the federal government.”

Monsanto Marijuana Initiative Grows in Uruguay?

Posted on by

“Monsanto, under attack regarding its GMO seeds, may need a new market to re-establish credibility and even popularity – as marijuana will surely prove a more welcome crop than soy in the public mind. Monsanto’s efforts as regards marijuana in Uruguay may be helped by the overwhelming government involvement in the cultivation, sales and marketing of marijuana. With its talent at bending smaller governments to its will, Monsanto may find a significant opportunity in Uruguay to establish an even more aggressive business beachhead. There is no doubt that the Uruguayan government will dominate marijuana production, at least in the short term.”

Bill Bonner: Is This the World’s Cheapest Commodity Play?

Posted on by

Bill-Bonner2

“Brazil has made its share of bad decisions… and suffered its share of bad policies. Generals, dictators, repression, depression and hyperinflation – Brazil has seen it all.  In the 1980s, Brazil’s consumer price increases went wild. In constant currency, a taxi ride that might have cost 4 cruzeiros in 1980 would have cost 5 trillion cruzeiros in 1994.  The government tried to head off inflation by introducing a new currency, the cruzado. Then came the new cruzado. Then came the cruzeiro back. And finally, the government introduced the real.  With prices rising so rapidly, it was impossible for investors and business people to make reasonable projections.”
