Thus, I have been MUCH better off keeping my money in a NZ bank at an interest rate of 6.5% than I would have been if I had kept it in gold. Interesting. You mentioned USD/AU and USD/NZD, but do you have a bottom line figure on NZD/AU? I mean, how much has the price of gold in NZD dropped over the last two years? You Americans must be really pissed at how your currency is being destroyed! Two things happening in the US: 1. Falling dollar 2. Rampant protectionism, i.e. punitive tariffs on imports Both deliberately designed to prop up American businesses who can't compete on the world scene but have plenty of lobbying power in Washington. We Americans will be paying a lot more for steel, textiles, catfish, computer chips -- you name it. If we buy from American companies we pay high local prices. If we buy from Europe, China, Vietnam, South Korea, etc. we pay high tariffs and high foreign exchange. Bush hopes to smell like a rose by November, with low unemployment figures, higher American corporate profits, and endorsements from labor unions. Everything will cost more, but shoppers grumbling about the price of cars and fish sticks, or invisibly paying $100 more for a computer than they otherwise would have, are not going to trace that back to Bush Co. in numbers that matter. Family funds will just sort of drain down a bit for no reason, and everyone will vaguely wonder why their take home pay (a disgusting term meaning the 40% of their earnings they're allowed to keep) doesn't seem to go as far as it used to. But no Sidd, I don't think many Americans will be pissed about it because they don't have much of a clue in the first place. Those who have a clue might take action like buying gold or NZD, and maybe this can generate enough price action to get clueless Americans to jump on that bandwagon -- though most of them will be too late. The path of least resistance for most of them is still stock and bond mutual funds. Gold and currency investment options are more exotic and harder to come by for average investors, and also much less publicized and even deliberately downplayed by financial advisors, CNBC, etc. A friend of mine who's been in the hedge fund industry for quite a while has started a Forex currency fund and I think he's right on the money so to speak. The other day I was talking with him about gold and we got to thinking that he should include gold in his fund as just another currency. There may come a day when ALL national fiat currencies are dropping relative to gold. Any currency fund which merely chases the relative squiggles between Euro, USD, NZD, etc. will be chasing those squiggles straight down the tubes in terms of actual purchasing power. So I think AU ought to be in his fund, though right now the parent trading system under which his fund is organized does not accommodate such a barbaric relic. But my friend said he might call them up and suggest that they include AU in their system somehow. Or maybe he could find a way to include AU on the side, as an adjunct to the normal currency trading in the parent trading system, though it would complicate the accounting quite a bit. -- Patrick --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use e-gold's Secure Randomized Keyboard (SRK) when accessing your e-gold account(s) via the web and shopping cart interfaces to help thwart keystroke loggers and common viruses.

Jim Davidson wrote: Tell anyone else you know who would be interested in buying these items with e-gold. I'm not doing this entirely for my own financial gain. I must say that the GoldBarter.com auction site exists entirely for financial gain. It is not only okay, but preferred that people place items for auction there for the purpose of financial gain. Well I didn't say it wasn't in part for financial gain, or even primarily so I'm just giving people small break. View it as a selfish act of cooperation if you like. If we all work together to make it easier to use alternatives to fiat currency, we all have something to gain. I certainly would not be disappointed if one of my buyers remembered and gave me a discount off the normal dollar rate for something they were selling in the future. giving these kinds of discounts, but I'm doing this to encourage alternatives to government-issued currency. I would probably save money by not accepting e-gold or E-gold offers a pretty compelling argument, on their web site, that e-gold is better for merchants than credit cards. Jim Ray? What's that link again? Also, I think e-gold is much better than the typical eBay alternative, PayPal which sucks so badly people make web sites about how badly it sucks. I seem to recall http://www.paypalwarning.com/ among others. PayPal has been very bad for several merchants I know. If you already have e-gold, it's a very fast of paying, and it's probably the fastest way regardless internationally. The only problem is that if you haven't already bought some, it costs a premium to get it fast by credit card, and my buyers could already pay me as convieniently by money order, perhaps more convieniently, than they could by buying e-gold by money order at low rates and then making a transfer to me And they could already do that even before I started accepting Paypal. The only reason I still accept Paypal after all their abominable changes to the User Agreement is because the manufacturer agreed to take the payments in her account, bearing all the risk. I don't think it's wise for her, but if she's willing to do that, it's fine with me. I still get paid my comissions for selling stuff. Fairy wing sales are on what I would say is the extreme low-risk end of chargebacks (that is, people with stolen credit cards tend not to buy them, and the buyers tend to be fairly honest), but I still won't take Paypal myself. If Paypal allowed surcharges, I might consider implementing one to compensate for the risk. I tried giving a discount for every other payment method for a while and raising my prices instead, but that increased the eBay fees I ended up paying. I'm still not sure that was really worth it -- Most buyers would still pay by money order if they didn't have the choice of Paypal, and I don't offer guaranteed shipping times anyway, so they're willing to wait. I think the main obstacle to getting people to buy things with e-gold directly on more of an impulse-type basis is the difficulty in funding an account rapidly. They just seem to have too short of an attention span, even when I offer discounts twice what I did in those eBay auctions Being able to walk into a bank, deposit cash, and get e-gold the same day, as is increasingly possible is good, but what people really need to be able to do is buy it online by something like ATM -- something a little bit more secure and less fraud-prone than credit cards, so that the rates aren't so high. --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use e-gold's Secure Randomized Keyboard (SRK) when accessing your e-gold account(s) via the web and shopping cart interfaces to help thwart keystroke loggers and common viruses.

[e-gold-list] Re: customer realities
Garry gave me USD worth of e-gold, and requested an exchange into DMT/Alta credits, which was delivered into his DMT/Alta account, albeit very late. AFTER the deal was concluded, he wanted a cancellation of the order. So, we reversed the entire process, and we returned USD worth of e-gold in full, less the actual DMT/Alta fees. Our discounted fee was also returned. -- That is not correct. We wanted a cancellation of the order because you made another failure. We wanted e-gold to get transferred into our ALTA account but you delivered USD. Very late funding and wrong currency. Graham informed us that he has only USD in his ALTA account. We wanted e-gold. Because we didn't want to wait another three weeks we accepted USD instead of e-gold. Then we realised that it would be expensive for us to send USD funds out of DMT/ALTA. We then asked him to reverse the transaction and he agreed. He made two major mistakes (very late funding and wrong currency). We don't think it is too much to ask for a FULL refund in this case. His initial issue was the late delivery, for which we apologised, and gave a 50% reduction on the GoldNow fee. His secondary issue now is that he is concerned about the loss of approx. $13, between the time he transferred the e-gold to us, and the value of it when returned... -- According to my calculation it was about $20. WE LOST MONEY BECAUSE YOU DELAYED THIS TRANSACTION.

[e-gold-list] Re: NZ banks
Mike, What I'm looking for should be obvious: A debit card with low or no currency-conversion fees which I can use anywhere in the world, off a deposit account with a decent rate of interest, in a currency which equals or beats gold. If should also be easy to move funds into and out of the account, and not require an insane amount of bullshit to set up. The issuer should also have an 800 number (preferably 24/7) in order to deal with problems (such as placing a lock on my account in the event of a stolen card). I have been informed that all banks in New Zealand issue debit cards but you need to *front up* to get them. What do you mean by front up? (You mean deposit actual funds? Well, that goes without saying for a debit card.) You can't send funds out of the country online either but you can fax the New Zealand banks International payment orders. If I have a debit-Visa, then that's a moot point. Here's what I want: [1] I deposit account in a bank in a nation with a stable currency (i.e., which equals or beats gold in interest RoR). [2] Issues a debit-Visa card which works flawlessly anywhere Visa is accepted. The issuer's systems would perform conversion on-the-fly with low or no transaction fee (so, for example, if it's NZ account, and I put in twenty bucks US worth of gas into my car in Chicago, not only will the credi-pay pump take the card, but I won't end up looking at a huge surcharge on my statement because I bought something that wasn't NZ-denominated. [3] Movin' me swag back and forth to, say, Ameritrade, should be as painless as wiring to and fro from a US bank.

[e-gold-list] Re: MailVault encrypted emails
Dear JP, For built in PGP encryption and secure emails, go to MailVault.com , and register an account. I use them, and recommend them! Just for what it may be worth, a client of mine in France opened a MailVault account in 1999 on a visit to Costa Rica. Then Laissez Faire City Clerk Jack Freeman aka Chris Eyerman was later found to be reading my client's e-mails and actually replied to one of them. I have been told in the time since that this problem has been fully rectified. Incidentally, be careful of these centralized-email systems, if privacy matters. Agreed. I think secure communications are important, and if secure commo matters to you, you should be using a Mac or Linux computer (desktop or laptop), you should be using a reliable e-mail client such as Eudora, you should be getting your e-mail on your computer, not on a web site, and you should be using PGP in its native form. Various other security protocols like firewalls and virus detectors are important to keep in mind, and decrypting and composing while offline seems prudent. To get PGP, I suggest http://www.pgpi.org/ for the international customers. A personal copy is free to download. You can buy a copy for commercial uses at pgp.com. Nevertheless, many people just won't be bothered with really secure commo. So, they use alternatives like Hushmail: https://www.hushmail.com/login.php?l=424a=1786subloc=signup2 or MailVault. By themselves, these aren't terrible choices, but they are less than optimal for security. Even so, in the best of circumstances, anyone who is sending e-mail, even encrypted e-mail, about a topic he wants nobody else to know or wherein he communicates something that would get him into immense trouble (treason, theft, murder, etc.), he should not be sending any e-mail at all. It is foolish to suppose that whatever security measures you've taken are good enough for that kind of stuff.

[e-gold-list] Re: Ethical refunds
Viking Coder [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm not arguing backed vs. fiat, or base system denominations, but inter-currency transaction roll-backs. When a transaction is made across non-equivalent currencies, is there an *ethical* means of determining what amount should be refunded? I don't think it's so clear. How is this situation usually handled (fiat - fiat transactions)? Is the merchant/payee's currency used as the basis for refund, or the customer/payer's currency used? I might be mistaken, but I believe no refunds is the normal policy - at least with most cash exchanges. If I were to give 500 USD to a cash exchange provider in Amsterdam in exchange for Euros, I wouldn't expect to be able to go back later and get my USD back. I would have to make another exchange from Euros to USD. It seems the scenario closest to Graham's situation would be if I push my 500 USD across the counter and the person on the other side picks it up and at that point (before I've received the Euros) I say, wait I changed my mind! In that case I'm guessing the person would hand the money back, and say make up your mind. This suggests to me that Graham should have returned the currency given to him (e-gold) in the amount he received (which is measured in weight), less fees extracted by the e-gold system. OR he should have said, sorry, no refunds. OR he should do exactly what he said (on his website) he'd do. It does seem a bit unfair that a customer can cancel an order because the price of dollars in terms of gold went down. If I send you 100 aug and expect 1000 USD for example, it seems a bit cheap and smarmy to cancel the order and redo it because the price of 1000 dollars went down to only 90 aug.

From: Graham Kelly [EMAIL PROTECTED] This person wants me to refund the difference in the cost of the e-gold when he delivered it to us, after he cancelled his order, and we refunded him. We cancelled the order because you sent us USD instead of e-gold into our ALTA account. Apparantly, the value of gold reduced by some $13 odd! (Incidently, we would have refunded his e-gold for EXACTLY the same amount had the ecurrency value increased... he could have made $ on the refund!) I am not so sure about that. His policy says that in the event the market is against GoldLATER/Graham Kelly he could change this so that it is in his favour. We faced a loss in gold because you delayed that oder by about THREE WEEKS!...and you think thats alright that we should cover this loss as a result of your inabilities to process our order. Beware of GoldLATER/Graham Kelly. This marketing guy hyped that he could do DMT/ALTA exchanges but had obviously no funds in his ALTA account at the time of ordering ant at least two weeks after our oder. After we publicly complained he realised that he cannot fool us. Other people of the e-gold mailing list had to help this wannabe big exchanger to get funds into his ALTA account.

Garry, Thank you for the opportunity to respond to this... again! You are correct, we were delayed 3 weeks, as we had issues accessing the DMT system. As I recall, so did YOU!

Quite rightly you cancelled the order, as anyone would have, myself included. The funds were returned, in full, less the DMT transfer fees. I just have one concern... why did you cancel AFTER the order was completed? Now, let's move on, don't you think?

Hi, I would have to agree... I did call around today and the local rates on american Eagles are $31.35 over spot and to sell they are paying $4 under spot. Canadian Maples are going for $28.75 over spot. One would need a fairly large upswing to overcome that so i don't yet see how holding hard gold assets is better except for long term saving for non investors. What I am wondering now are two things: What is going to happen to the real estate market in the US over the next 1-2 years and how e-gold could be used to fund real estate assets on the upswing while they dip. Regarding silver: I think from what i understand about the market now that holding e-silver may be a better bet in the short term even with gold going up to $500+ What are your thoughts about the current market value of silver as opposed to gold?

[e-gold-list] Re: gold price downturn and investment vehicles
Here's an interesting observation: In the last 2 years, most people have been excited about the rise in the gold price. On this day in 2001 the gold price was $275/ounce http://kitco.com/scripts/hist_charts/daily_graphs.cgi Today the gold price is $403/ounce. http://kitco.com/charts/livegold.html This shows an increase of 46.5% over the 2001 price. To put this into perspective though, consider the devastation of the USD. My interest is in New Zealand, where I reside for much of the time. The USD/NZD exchange rate on this day 2001 was 2.41663 http://www.oanda.com/convert/classic Today the USD/NZD exchange rate is 1.54696 This shows an increase of 56% over the 2001 price. Thus, I have been MUCH better off keeping my money in a NZ bank at an interest rate of 6.5% than I would have been if I had kept it in gold.

Then I loaded the card by e-gold. The real fee was 2% + $1.5. It took around 1.5 days.

Send them USD. (If instead of USD - at this later time - for some reason - you decided to send them wheat, gold, cars or paperbacks, that is a different separate negotiation to have.) If for some reason the deal - the sale - is being broken, is not proceeding, there is NO sale, you would - of course - as Sidd points out - give back whatever it was they gave you. If they gave you cheese, give them back cheese. In this case they gave you gold, give them back gold. There is no other possible viewpoint. That is the only conceivable meaning of cancelling the sale.

Dear JP, (ONE) say the system is 1/3 each of egold, pecunix, and goldmoney. Say pecunix totally evaporates. What would happen is that each user loses one third of their conglomerated-gold. (Sucks, but better than losing it all.) Wouldn't it be clever to insure against such a disaster? Then the currency fails but your insurance policy kicks in and the gold is replaced. I would think a policy on the loss of any one of these would not carry too high a premium. Getting the insurer to agree to pay off in gold - write the contract in gold rather than dollars or euros - would seem a major challenge. (THREE) more of a sort of meta exchange system. This approach would have the advantage of letting the market inform you about which currency should have more of your bars of gold. If people preferentially bail in, say, e-gold and bail out, say, Pecunix, then you'll need to move bars from e-gold to Pecunix to keep up.

Perhaps some existing exchange providers will offer more and more advanced services for merchants and consumers, via accounts of their own for their customers, from which they end up as the banks of the DGC world, offering a range of financial services, including own brand/related brand debit cards, interest bearing savings accounts, and multi-currency savings accounts and merchant account services. http://www.e-fidex.com is an example of a company already heading this route, offering a continually expanding range of financial services tied in some manner to the use of an e-gold acccount: debit cards and other bank products, trusts and corporations, merchant account compatibility, etc. There may well be others of which I am unaware.

You quoted 16 lines, and this mailing list is set to reject messages which quote more than 15 continuous lines of a previous message. Please resubmit your message, this time quoting fewer lines of the previous message. --- the enigmatic Viking Koder says ... There have been discussions about a whole range of new currency possibilities. What if the working model of 1mdc is taken and expanded upon? Instead of a currency overlayed on a specific GBC, what would be the pros/cons of a currency redeemable (backed is too vague of a term) for any of a basket of GBCs? Exactly right, VC. Often at 1mdc people say well, 1mdc is based on e-gold, but no fees - could you also make one that is based on goldmoney, but no fees? So that would be fair enough, you could have a 1mdc based on egold, goldmoney, pecunix or whatever. But then people have said well why not base it on all of them - like you say above. There are a couple of different approaches to this, dealing with what to do around the margins when an underlying IG system fails. (ONE) say the system is 1/3 each of egold, pecunix, and goldmoney. Say pecunix totally evaporates. What would happen is that each user loses one third of their conglomerated-gold. (Sucks, but better than losing it all.) (TWO) the system has total flexibility of redemption *entirely based on the operator's personl preferences* at any time. Thus, I could say at any moment tough tittie - we no longer hand out egold This has the Hoppeian advantage of anything being personally run runs better, ie, the operator would be right on top of things, and use inside info to weed out shitty IG systems before they become a problem (THREE) more of a sort of meta exchange system. The operator would keep stocks of all three IGs on hand. If a user wanted any particular one, they could have it. It would be up to the operator to balance stocks of all three (perhaps moving bars etc). All this would, of course, have a cost to the operator. But then evertything has a cost. It costs egold money to store bars and bail and unbail bars. People would whine that it can't magically be free, but just the usual spend fees etc would be income and the other would be a cost. So that is three variations of this theme. (I think Robert you have Gone Mad here and you have gone off on a different sort of tack in this dicussion - youa re talking about more of a gold banking system, I think.)

Dear JP, Often at 1mdc people say well, 1mdc is based on e-gold, but no fees - could you also make one that is based on goldmoney, but no fees? So that would be fair enough, you could have a 1mdc based on egold, goldmoney, pecunix or whatever. Goldmoney will not permit such a currency because they couldn't verify the owners of the gold grams. Which is the reason why you can't redeem Gold-Price grams for goldmoney but you can redeem them for other trusted gold currencies including e-gold, Pecunix and 1mdc grams (or even gold nuggets). Here is an interesting post from one of our members who describes what they did with the Gold-Price grams they redeemed for e-gold recently in our our TheGoldCasino.com/Dbourse.com forum: So how's everyone doing? They have these news articles about great odds and I'm seeing that firsthand lol.

I think you have misunderstood Viking completely... Hence there has to be actual proof of the gold holdings for each currency, That is what Viking proposed. Actually I was trying to take his idea a bit further, when I suggested that he was in effect proposing to set up a reserve bank of sorts. After that I went on to show the weaknesses of both systems, first the one he proposed and the the one I suggested he would need to use to make it workable. The simple proposal was that there would always be a 1:1 ratio of gold to comgold, but a user would need to take pot luck when redeeming... In other words, if you wish to redeem 40g of comgold, and there is say 30g of e-gold in the system, and 20g of Pecunix and 10g of e-bullion etc, you are out of luck if you want it all in e-gold, you would need to take the 30g in e-gold and the balance in one of the others... I do see the benefit for users in a system that allows frictionless exchange between currencies and an ueber-currency (comgold) used to make it easier for people to trade with each other. But I fail to see the benefit of using a system in which redeemability for the currency of my choice is not garanteed. After all, if the redeemability is subject to availability, then everyone might as well use the US Dollar and then exchange the US Dollar for the IG currency of his or her choice? I do like any concept that makes things easier and improves on current systems, but I doubt that anything that would further complicate and confuse users who simply want to buy and sell 'stuff' would find many takers...

[e-gold-list] Re: comglomerated gold
In fact, the mere existence of an independent reserve bank preempts the use of fiat, if you want to insist on proper term usage. So modify the term for proper current usage, which happens on a regular/continual basis, by removing any mention of 'government'. Fiat money = any currency/scrip/tokens issued without redeemability In other words, if there are 1,000,000g comgold in circulation and I grab 40% of that and e-gold represents 40% of the comgold reserver and I exchange 10% or 100,000g of comgold for e-gold, then e-gold suddenly is only 36% of the total and the 4% difference are holdings of comgold in comgold, right? Wrong. How would you 'grab' 40% of the comgold? You would have to obtain the comgold just like you obtain any other item - by exchange or theft. Either you exchange e-gold - comgold through some exchange provider, receive some for some service or goods, or obtain through various illicit means, but no matter how you do it - the amount in circulation never changes. In order to change the amount in circulation, you go directly to comgold and add more e-gold into the mix. For which you receive an equal amount of comgold. The ratios of e-gold/pecunix/e-bullion/goldmoney/1mdc would then change. The amount in circulation would decrease when you redeem out of the system. But as that can't be, because comgold is not fiat, the percentage of pecinux and others has to increase. 100g total 60% (60g) e-gold 10% (10g) 1mdc 10% (10g) pecunix 10% (10g) e-bullion 10% (10g) goldmoney Add 20g e-gold Receive 20g comgold 120g total 66.7% (80g) e-gold 8.3% (10g) 1mdc 8.3% (10g) pecunix 8.3% (10g) e-bullion 8.3% (10g) goldmoney Redeem 40g comgold - e-gold 80g total 50% (40g) e-gold 12.5% (10g) 1mdc 12.5% (10g) pecunix 12.5% (10g) e-bullion 12.5% (10g) goldmoney All circulation changes would be recorded and could be made available for public view along with publicly viewable balances in every underlying currency.

[e-gold-list] Re: comglomerated gold
How would such a conglomerated gold currency be a fiat currency? Sorry about the term abuse. I often use fiat incorrectly because of the insecurities it implies and because I want to differenciate from other digital currencies. While my idea of fiat is not necessarily correct I do assess it in the same way I assess DisneyDollars which, strictly speaking are not fiat because they are not issued by a government - but neither are the Euro or the US dollar. In fact, the mere existence of an independent reserve bank preempts the use of fiat, if you want to insist on proper term usage. After all, the Federal Reserve is not a government body... Or... Is the following statement not true? 1g e-gold = 1g pecunix = 1g e-bullion = 1g goldmoney No it is untrue on two counts: (1) 1g e-gold = (1g sth else - minus exchange fees) (2) all other currencies combined can not bring up the same amount of gramms in circulation. Hence wile 1g e-gold might be close to 1g sth else, 2tonnes e-gold isn't, because there isn't enough something else. Exemption is of course 1mdc/fastgrams which is backed and redeemable for e-gold. Either way, I think the main concerns are not two words I used and their dictionary meanings, but the fact that for 1g comgold to be redeemable for gold, you need to look at it as 100/100g comgold, redeemable for 40/100g of e-gold, etc... Hence there has to be actual proof of the gold holdings for each currency, or a garantee by the operator of the currency, which in turn means that you have to have 100/100g comgold to have a chance to call in a promise - unless comgold will allow me to used 40g of comgold to get e-gold, which will then itself create an imbalance of the fractual percentage of the holding reserves of comgold in other currencies, which in turn would change the 40g relative rate into something slightly lower, which finally means that I will make a fraction of a gram profit by exchanging comgold for e-gold - which of course, means that comgold can't allow that to happen, which in turn means that comgold is ipso facto not redeemable... If however comgold did allow me to change 40g of comgold into 40g of e-gold, then I'd like to park a couple of tons in your back yard please and drive off with couple of tons of e-gold redeemed bullion at a profit of a few KG, depending on the overall volume of comgold in circulation. In other words, if there are 1,000,000g comgold in circulation and I grab 40% of that and e-gold represents 40% of the comgold reserver and I exchange 10% or 100,000g of comgold for e-gold, then e-gold suddenly is only 36% of the total and the 4% difference are holdings of comgold in comgold, right? But as that can't be, because comgold is not fiat, the percentage of pecinux and others has to increase. Suddenly I get e-gold for comgold at 4% below the basket fraction. I keep doing this until e-gold is 0% of comgold and then use e-gold to buy the now undervalued other currencies. Doing that a few times (while comgold needs to issue more hypothetical grams to keep me at bay, I end up controlling large chunks of all currencies and comgold keeps paying the difference by issuing new comgold-gs to the exchangers - which now stopped being redeemable. If you ask me, I'd call it fiat - for lack of a better term.

[e-gold-list] Re: comglomerated gold
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.

[e-gold-list] Re: UFO progress!
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. GK On Thu, 27 Nov 2003 16:22:54 -0500, Robert B.Z.

[e-gold-list] Re: comglomerated gold
Hi Robert, 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. 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 itself has a 'flow' built in. Yes and when people start learning of the convenience of GoldCart.com it will be interesting to see which way the gold flows.

[e-gold-list] Re: comglomerated gold
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?

[e-gold-list] Re: Pecunix security
Sidd, there is no need to increase the length of the passwords. I understand that passwords are good for those people who print their PIKs and may loose them; it's a simple security backup system. For such a case, passwords need to be short to be easily remembered. Also, people who log-in from a public computer only need to remember their limited access password. So, the current password doesn't need to change. However, this still leaves an account opened for automated password cracking. Therefore, the system has to lock (for 24 hours) an account for which there are too many consecutive failed log-ins (for example, 10). This means that each PIK must be unique, so that the system can at any time determine to what account each PIK belongs. The only things that still bugs me is an easier way in input the elements of the PIK, in the log-in form.
