However, PGP is extremely vulnerable to keystroke logging.
Clipboard pasting your PGP password simply shifts the
vulnerability to clipboard logging.  And the PGP private
key would seem to be something one could grab off the
user's hard drive over the 'net.

Of course we do not keep our PGP Keywords on the hard drive.

We keep them else where and only plug them in when we actually use them.

[e-gold-list] UFO progress!

2003-11-27 Thread Graham Kelly
Guys,

A very quick update on my UFO Gyrocopter project... the NZ
inventer/designer, Mac, advises that we now need the Subaru 2.2 litre
engine tuned to the LINK computer needed to run/manage the engine, and
yesterday we arranged a local car performance guy to install the LINK
computer, then dyno-tune the motor to the computer etc etc. The LINK
computer is designed and made in Christchurch, NZ, I believe.

We have found a local paint to use on the finish of the machine, but it's
a tad expensive! I may have to get GoldNow to actually sponsor the
aircraft to afford it! All things being equal, and provided I can get
some time off work, we should be flying around April-May. All my NZ
customers will be invited for a flight (if they trust my flying!) Next
year, we plan to move to Europe with the machine.

Pics here...  http://community.webshots.com/user/kelly_clan . The Link
computer can be easily seen attached to the bulkhead... it's an ingenious
little beastie!

If you want one, please advise, so I can arrange to accept your ecurrency
payments!

[e-gold-list] Re: comglomerated gold

2003-11-27 Thread Robert B.Z.
 You exchange 100g of e-gold for 100g of comgold. Those 100g of comgold
 aren't guaranteed to be redeemable for e-gold, but are guaranteed to be
 redeemable for 100g total of any of the currently underlying GBCs (17g
 pecunix, 13g goldmoney, 16g e-bullion, 14g 1mdc, 40g e-gold) due to the
 flux of in-  out-exchanges.

You are essentially talking about an electronic reserve bank that issues
fiat currency, based on supply and demand, yes? I assume to make it
workable you would expect currency operators to maintain corespondence
accounts with the reserve bank and garantee to balance their respective
account in accordance with the percentage of the overall volume
represented by their currency?
To get them to do that, you would need to offer them to share ownership of
the reserve bank (and find a name that doesn't have 'reserve' in it) and
the bank would need to generate some sort of revenue (membership fees?
exchange courtages?) to make people want to own shares. A pretty big ask
in an environment were IG currency operators distrust each other and
everyone would want to see everyone else's gold, don't you think?

 
 pro: diversification of risk

The risk that user loose funds when one of the currencies folds? In fact
there would be no risk, as the remaining operators would have to pick up
the tab. Any other system would not entice users to use the currency.

But more importantly, I feel that most people have a misconception about
their own users - or at least the majority of users and the meaning of the
word currency, itself.

Most people that I know, use IG as currency. As a means to purchase goods
and services - NOT as an investment. What you are suggesting would have
the underlying goal of getting people to trust the concept enough not to
outexchange and instead to use the new IG as an investment vehicle as
well.
To do that however, you need to offer more than just a spread-risk digital
gold redemmable currency. You need to offer interest, dividends, something
for people to profit from.

If any sane person wants to invest into bullion because they expect the
price to go up, and if that investment is longer term, nothing beats the
real article - having the coins and bars in your safe - next to your
reserve gun and ammo. Sure, a government could try to confiscate it - but
that could happen with a currency operator as well.

I like the idea of a reserve / clearing system that allows people to deal
with one currency while there are several actual currencies in place, but
if that is the only reason, then Sidd has done half the work.

In the end of the day, if I have no incentive to keep a particular
currency, other than promises and fancy documents posted on a site, then I
will always opt for e-gold (1mdc) and ultimately for outexchange - to buy
the genuine article. And I believe that most 'consumers' have similar
views. e-gold ruley supreme - other currencies are great because one can
exchange them into e-gold, but e-gold is what people buy and spend the
most. It is in fact a currency that flows. I would go as far as saying
that e-gold is a currency, the others are private money. The word currency
itself has a 'flow' built in. Money doesn't by itself.

But then, I am not an IG/DGC operator. I just use the stuff to buy other
stuff - as do the people who buy stff from me with it.

Cheers,
Robert.

Robert,

Mark my words, I'll get a pic of myself (or wife, or maybe even YOU)
flying the UFO gyro, somewhere over the Pacific or Med, processing
e-gold/ecurrency orders on a GPRS enabled laptop. (Maybe in Malta, GPRS
is free there!) We are researching light-weight mobile cell
repeaters/boosters, as we speak, to fit on the outside of the cabin for
our cellphones and the PC GPRS card. We'll also be installing the GPS
antenna, and the other aerials needed for the various radio's.

The ultimate, of course, is a mobile satellite internet access. Utopia!
This will happen sooner or later!

The first customer processed will get their ecurrency order fulfilled at
no charge at all.

GoldNow has a Japanese speaking customer service rep (my daughter,

the bottom of the GoldNow default page.

We will be working on a JP translation eventually, as well as a JP

Yes, e-gold is great! Because I can instantly change it into Pecunix at
Open2Exchange and be sure that the gold is actually there and secure
(without ID)!

 It is in fact a currency that flows. I would go as far as saying
 that e-gold is a currency, the others are private money. The word currency

Yes and when people start learning of the convenience of GoldCart.com it
will be interesting to see which way the gold flows.

2003-11-27 Thread Viking Coder
 You are essentially talking about an electronic reserve bank that issues
 fiat currency, based on supply and demand, yes?

How would such a conglomerated gold currency be a fiat currency?
Individual currencies (e-gold, pecunix, etc...) aren't considered fiat.
1mdc isn't considered fiat. Why then does comgold fit the bill?

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=fiat%20money
---
Legal tender, especially paper currency, authorized by a government but
not based on or convertible into gold or silver.
---

Comgold would not be issued by a government but would be based on, and
convertible into, gold in the same method as 1mdc.

Or... Is the following statement not true?

1g e-gold = 1g pecunix = 1g e-bullion = 1g goldmoney

Comgold would step into fiat territory if multiple metal bases were
included into it - such as e-silver, e-bullion silver, e-platinum, etc...
Because, how many grams of silver equal one gram of gold?
