  37 spesielt hyggelig med en gladnyhet fra EU om Bitcoin.</p>

  40 <a href="http://curia.europa.eu/juris/document/document.jsf?text=&docid=170305&pageIndex=0&doclang=en&mode=req&dir=&occ=first&part=1&cid=604079">Bitcoin-kjøp

  47 fra Skatteetaten i 2013</a>, der de konkluderte med at bitcoin er et
  48 «formuesobjekter» som det skulle betales mva på ved kjøp og salg.
  49 Dermed la Skatteetaten opp til dobbel MVA-betaling hvis en kjøpte noe
  50 med Bitcoin fra Norge (først mva på kjøp av Bitcoin, deretter mva på
  51 det en kjøper med Bitcoin).  Jeg lurer på om denne avgjørelsen får
  52 Skatteetaten til å bytte mening.  Gleder meg til fortsettelsen.</p>

  73         <p>Bitcoin is a incredible use of peer to peer communication and
  74 encryption, allowing direct and immediate money transfer without any
  75 central control.  It is sometimes claimed to be ideal for illegal
  76 activity, which I believe is quite a long way from the truth.  At least
  77 I would not conduct illegal money transfers using a system where the
  78 details of every transaction are kept forever.  This point is
  79 investigated in
  80 <a href="https://www.usenix.org/publications/login">USENIX ;login:</a>
  81 from December 2013, in the article
  82 "<a href="https://www.usenix.org/system/files/login/articles/03_meiklejohn-online.pdf">A
  83 Fistful of Bitcoins - Characterizing Payments Among Men with No
  84 Names</a>" by Sarah Meiklejohn, Marjori Pomarole,Grant Jordan, Kirill
  85 Levchenko, Damon McCoy, Geoffrey M. Voelker, and Stefan Savage.  They
  86 analyse the transaction log in the Bitcoin system, using it to find
  87 addresses belong to individuals and organisations and follow the flow
  88 of money from both Bitcoin theft and trades on Silk Road to where the
  89 money end up.  This is how they wrap up their article:</p>
  90
  91 <p><blockquote>
  92 <p>"To demonstrate the usefulness of this type of analysis, we turned
  93 our attention to criminal activity. In the Bitcoin economy, criminal
  94 activity can appear in a number of forms, such as dealing drugs on
  95 Silk Road or simply stealing someone else’s bitcoins. We followed the
  96 flow of bitcoins out of Silk Road (in particular, from one notorious
  97 address) and from a number of highly publicized thefts to see whether
  98 we could track the bitcoins to known services. Although some of the
  99 thieves attempted to use sophisticated mixing techniques (or possibly
 100 mix services) to obscure the flow of bitcoins, for the most part
 101 tracking the bitcoins was quite straightforward, and we ultimately saw
 102 large quantities of bitcoins flow to a variety of exchanges directly
 103 from the point of theft (or the withdrawal from Silk Road).</p>
 104
 105 <p>As acknowledged above, following stolen bitcoins to the point at
 106 which they are deposited into an exchange does not in itself identify
 107 the thief; however, it does enable further de-anonymization in the
 108 case in which certain agencies can determine (through, for example,
 109 subpoena power) the real-world owner of the account into which the
 110 stolen bitcoins were deposited.  Because such exchanges seem to serve
 111 as chokepoints into and out of the Bitcoin economy (i.e., there are
 112 few alternative ways to cash out), we conclude that using Bitcoin for
 113 money laundering or other illicit purposes does not (at least at
 114 present) seem to be particularly attractive."</p>
 115 </blockquote><p>
 116
 117 <p>These researches are not the first to analyse the Bitcoin
 118 transaction log.  The 2011 paper
 119 "<a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/1107.4524">An Analysis of Anonymity in
 120 the Bitcoin System</A>" by Fergal Reid and Martin Harrigan is
 121 summarized like this:</p>
 122
 123 <p><blockquote>
 124 "Anonymity in Bitcoin, a peer-to-peer electronic currency system, is a
 125 complicated issue. Within the system, users are identified by
 126 public-keys only. An attacker wishing to de-anonymize its users will
 127 attempt to construct the one-to-many mapping between users and
 128 public-keys and associate information external to the system with the
 129 users. Bitcoin tries to prevent this attack by storing the mapping of
 130 a user to his or her public-keys on that user's node only and by
 131 allowing each user to generate as many public-keys as required. In
 132 this chapter we consider the topological structure of two networks
 133 derived from Bitcoin's public transaction history. We show that the
 134 two networks have a non-trivial topological structure, provide
 135 complementary views of the Bitcoin system and have implications for
 136 anonymity. We combine these structures with external information and
 137 techniques such as context discovery and flow analysis to investigate
 138 an alleged theft of Bitcoins, which, at the time of the theft, had a
 139 market value of approximately half a million U.S. dollars."
 140 </blockquote></p>
 141
 142 <p>I hope these references can help kill the urban myth that Bitcoin
 143 is anonymous.  It isn't really a good fit for illegal activites.  Use
 144 cash if you need to stay anonymous, at least until regular DNA
 145 sampling of notes and coins become the norm. :)</p>

 169       <div class="body">
 170         <p><a href="http://bitcoin.org/">Bitcoin</a> er mye i mediene for
 171 tiden.  Jeg følger med via Mylder for å finne
 172 <a href="http://mylder.no/?drill=bitcoin">artikler som omtaler
 173 temaet</a>, og takket være dette oppdaget jeg at stortingsrepresentant
 174 Ketil Solvik-Olsen fra FrP nylig har spurt finansminister Sigbjørn
 175 Johnsen om hans syn på Bitcoin, og
 176 <a href="http://www.stortinget.no/no/Saker-og-publikasjoner/Sporsmal/Skriftlige-sporsmal-og-svar/Skriftlig-sporsmal/?qid=57052">fått
 177 svar for noen dager siden</a>.  Jeg bet meg spesielt merke til
 178 følgende formulering fra finansministeren:</p>
 179
 180 <p><blockquote>
 181 «Det er også utfordringer ved at handel med Bitcoins er uregulert og
 182 at transaksjonene er anonyme.»
 183 </blockquote></p>
 184
 185 <p>At Bitcoin er anonymt er en myte som spres av både journalister og
 186 andre, så det er ikke veldig overraskende at også finansministeren har
 187 gått på limpinnen.  Det er dog litt rart, da jeg håper at
 188 finansdepartementet ikke baserer seg på rykter og myter når de
 189 besvarer Stortinget.  Men du trenger ikke bare tro på meg som kilde
 190 til påstanden om at Bitcoin ikke er anonymt.  Sondre Rønjom har
 191 <a href="http://blogg.nsm.stat.no/archives/3241">via Sikkerhetsbloggen
 192 hos Nasjonal Sikkerhetsmyndighet</a> uttalt følgende:</p>
 193
 194 <p><blockquote>
 195 «At [bitcoin] i utgangspunktet
 196 <a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/1107.4524"><em>ikke</em> er anonymt</a>,
 197 kommer kanskje som en overraskelse på mange.»
 198 </blockquote></p>
 199
 200 <p>Enhver bevegelse av Bitcoin er offentlig tilgjengelig for alle på
 201 Internet, og en må legge svært mye innsats inn hvis en skal hindre at
 202 nettverksanalyse av transaksjonsloggene kan brukes til å identifisere
 203 brukerne.  F.eks. kan en enkelt se hva jeg har mottatt til min
 204 offentliggjorte mottaksadresse ved å besøke blockexplorer og slå opp
 205 adressen
 206 <a href="http://blockexplorer.com/address/15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b">15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b</a>.
 207 Det virker dermed på meg ganske klart at å påstå at
 208 Bitcoin-transaksjoner er anonyme strengt tatt er å føre Stortinget bak
 209 lyset.</p>
 210
 211 <p>Finansministeren er ikke den eneste som har latt seg forlede av
 212 medieomtalen.  I spørsmålet fra Hr. Solvik-Olsen skriver han at «For
 213 noen dager siden kom den første bitcoin-minibanken på Kypros», hvilket
 214 så vidt jeg har klart å finne ut ikke er riktig.  Det er annonsert
 215 planer om en slik minibank (fra
 216 <a href="http://www.bitcoinatm.com/">BitcoinATM</a>), men jeg finner
 217 intet tegn til at en slik minibank er utplassert noe sted.</p>

 220 mine aktiviteter, så setter jeg pris på Bitcoin-donasjoner til min

 245 bitcoin related blog post</a> mentioned that the new
 246 <a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/bitcoin">bitcoin package</a> for
 247 Debian was waiting in NEW.  It was accepted by the Debian ftp-masters
 248 2013-01-19, and have been available in unstable since then.  It was
 249 automatically copied to Ubuntu, and is available in their Raring
 250 version too.</p>
 251
 252 <p>But there is a strange problem with the build that block this new
 253 version from being available on the i386 and kfreebsd-i386
 254 architectures.  For some strange reason, the autobuilders in Debian
 255 for these architectures fail to run the test suite on these
 256 architectures (<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/672524">BTS #672524</a>).
 257 We are so far unable to reproduce it when building it manually, and
 258 no-one have been able to propose a fix.  If you got an idea what is
 259 failing, please let us know via the BTS.</p>
 260
 261 <p>One feature that is annoying me with of the bitcoin client, because
 262 I often run low on disk space, is the fact that the client will exit
 263 if it run short on space (<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/696715">BTS

 292
 293 <p><a href="http://www.bitcoin.org/">Bitcoin</a>, the digital
 294 decentralised "currency" that allow people to transfer bitcoins
 295 between each other with minimal overhead, is a very interesting
 296 experiment.  And as I wrote a few days ago, the bitcoin situation in
 297 <a href="http://www.debian.org/">Debian</a> is about to improve a bit.
 298 The <a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/bitcoin">new debian source
 299 package</a> (version 0.7.2-2) was uploaded yesterday, and is waiting
 300 in <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html">the NEW queue</A>
 301 for one of the ftpmasters to approve the new bitcoin-qt package
 302 name.</p>
 303
 304 <p>And thanks to the great work of Jonas and the rest of the bitcoin
 305 team in Debian, you can easily test the package in Debian Squeeze
 306 using the following steps to get a set of working packages:</p>
 307
 308 <blockquote><pre>
 309 git clone git://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/bitcoin
 310 cd bitcoin
 311 DEB_MAINTAINER_MODE=1 DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noupnp fakeroot debian/rules clean
 312 DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noupnp git-buildpackage --git-ignore-new
 313 </pre></blockquote>
 314
 315 <p>You might have to install some build dependencies as well.  The
 316 list of commands should give you two packages, bitcoind and
 317 bitcoin-qt, ready for use in a Squeeze environment.  Note that the
 318 client will download the complete set of bitcoin "blocks", which need
 319 around 5.6 GiB of data on my machine at the moment.  Make sure your
 320 ~/.bitcoin/ directory have lots of spare room if you want to download
 321 all the blocks.  The client will warn if the disk is getting full, so
 322 there is not really a problem if you got too little room, but you will
 323 not be able to get all the features out of the client.</p>

 348         <p>It has been a while since I wrote about
 349 <a href="http://www.bitcoin.org/">bitcoin</a>, the decentralised
 350 peer-to-peer based crypto-currency, and the reason is simply that I
 351 have been busy elsewhere.  But two days ago, I started looking at the
 352 state of <a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/bitcoin">bitcoin in
 353 Debian</a> again to try to recover my old bitcoin wallet.  The package
 354 is now maintained by a
 355 <a href="https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-bitcoin/">team of
 356 people</a>, and the grunt work had already been done by this team.  We
 357 owe a huge thank you to all these team members. :)
 358 But I was sad to discover that the bitcoin client is missing in
 359 Wheezy.  It is only available in Sid (and an outdated client from
 360 backports).  The client had several RC bugs registered in BTS blocking
 361 it from entering testing.  To try to help the team and improve the
 362 situation, I spent some time providing patches and triaging the bug
 363 reports.  I also had a look at the bitcoin package available from Matt
 364 Corallo in a
 365 <a href="https://launchpad.net/~bitcoin/+archive/bitcoin">PPA for
 366 Ubuntu</a>, and moved the useful pieces from that version into the
 367 Debian package.</p>
 368
 369 <p>After checking with the main package maintainer Jonas Smedegaard on
 370 IRC, I pushed several patches into the collab-maint git repository to
 371 improve the package.  It now contains fixes for the RC issues (not from
 372 me, but fixed by Scott Howard), build rules for a Qt GUI client
 373 package, konqueror support for the bitcoin: URI and bash completion
 374 setup.  As I work on Debian Squeeze, I also created
 375 <a href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-bitcoin-devel/Week-of-Mon-20121217/000041.html">a
 376 patch to backport</a> the latest version.  Jonas is going to look at
 377 it and try to integrate it into the git repository before uploading a
 378 new version to unstable.
 379
 380 <p>I would very much like bitcoin to succeed, to get rid of the
 381 centralized control currently exercised in the monetary system.  I
 382 find it completely unacceptable that the USA government is collecting
 383 transaction data for almost all international money transfers (most are done in USD and transaction logs shipped to the spooks), and
 384 that the major credit card companies can block legal money
 385 transactions to Wikileaks.  But for bitcoin to succeed, more people
 386 need to use bitcoins, and more people need to accept bitcoins when
 387 they sell products and services.  Improving the bitcoin support in
 388 Debian is a small step in the right direction, but not enough.
 389 Unfortunately the user experience when browsing the web and wanting to
 390 pay with bitcoin is still not very good.  The bitcoin: URI is a step
 391 in the right direction, but need to work in most or every browser in
 392 use.  Also the bitcoin-qt client is too heavy to fire up to do a
 393 quick transaction.  I believe there are other clients available, but
 394 have not tested them.</p>

 396 <p>My
 397 <a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Now_accepting_bitcoins___anonymous_and_distributed_p2p_crypto_money.html">experiment
 398 with bitcoins</a> showed that at least some of my readers use bitcoin.
 399 I received 20.15 BTC so far on the address I provided in my blog two
 400 years ago, as can be
 401 <a href="http://blockexplorer.com/address/15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b">seen
 402 on the blockexplorer service</a>.  Thank you everyone for your
 403 donation.  The blockexplorer service demonstrates quite well that
 404 bitcoin is not quite anonymous and untracked. :) I wonder if the
 405 number of users have gone up since then.  If you use bitcoin and want
 406 to show your support of my activity, please send Bitcoin donations to
 407 the same address as last time,

 429         <p>Slashdot just ran a story about the European Central Bank (ECB)
 430 <a href="http://www.ecb.europa.eu/pub/pdf/other/virtualcurrencyschemes201210en.pdf">releasing
 431 a report (PDF)</a> about virtual currencies and
 432 <a href="http://www.bitcoin.org/">bitcoin</a>.  It is interesting to
 433 see how a member of the bitcoin community
 434 <a href="http://blog.bitinstant.com/blog/2012/10/30/the-ecb-report-on-bitcoin-and-virtual-currencies.html">receive
 435 the report</a>.  As for the future, I suspect the central banks and
 436 the governments will outlaw bitcoin if it gain any popularity, to avoid
 437 competition.  My thoughts go to the
 438 <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wörgl">Wörgl experiment</a> with
 439 negative inflation on cash which was such a success that it was
 440 terminated by the Austrian National Bank in 1933.  A successful
 441 alternative would be a threat to the current money system and gain
 442 powerful forces to work against it.</p>
 443
 444 <p>While checking out the current status of bitcoin, I also discovered
 445 that the community already seem to have
 446 <a href="http://www.theverge.com/2012/8/27/3271637/bitcoin-savings-trust-pyramid-scheme-shuts-down">experienced
 447 its first pyramid game / Ponzi scheme</a>.  Not very surprising, given
 448 how members of "small" communities tend to trust each other.  I guess
 449 enterprising crocks will try again and again, as they do anywhere
 450 wealth is available.</p>

 471         <p>As I continue to explore
 472 <a href="http://www.bitcoin.org/">BitCoin</a>, I've starting to wonder
 473 what properties the system have, and how it will be affected by laws
 474 and regulations here in Norway.  Here are some random notes.</p>
 475
 476 <p>One interesting thing to note is that since the transactions are
 477 verified using a peer to peer network, all details about a transaction
 478 is known to everyone.  This means that if a BitCoin address has been
 479 published like I did with mine in my initial post about BitCoin, it is
 480 possible for everyone to see how many BitCoins have been transfered to
 481 that address.  There is even a web service to look at the details for
 482 all transactions.  There I can see that my address
 483 <a href="http://blockexplorer.com/address/15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b">15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b</a>
 484 have received 16.06 Bitcoin, the
 485 <a href="http://blockexplorer.com/address/1LfdGnGuWkpSJgbQySxxCWhv8MHqvwst3">1LfdGnGuWkpSJgbQySxxCWhv8MHqvwst3</a>
 486 address of Simon Phipps have received 181.97 BitCoin and the address
 487 <a href="http://blockexplorer.com/address/1MCwBbhNGp5hRm5rC1Aims2YFRe2SXPYKt">1MCwBbhNGp5hRm5rC1Aims2YFRe2SXPYKt</A>
 488 of EFF have received 2447.38 BitCoins so far.  Thank you to each and
 489 every one of you that donated bitcoins to support my activity. The
 490 fact that anyone can see how much money was transfered to a given
 491 address make it more obvious why the BitCoin community recommend to
 492 generate and hand out a new address for each transaction.  I'm told
 493 there is no way to track which addresses belong to a given person or
 494 organisation without the person or organisation revealing it
 495 themselves, as Simon, EFF and I have done.</p>
 496
 497 <p>In Norway, and in most other countries, there are laws and
 498 regulations limiting how much money one can transfer across the border
 499 without declaring it.  There are money laundering, tax and accounting
 500 laws and regulations I would expect to apply to the use of BitCoin.
 501 If the Skolelinux foundation
 502 (<a href="http://linuxiskolen.no/slxdebianlabs/donations.html">SLX
 503 Debian Labs</a>) were to accept donations in BitCoin in addition to
 504 normal bank transfers like EFF is doing, how should this be accounted?
 505 Given that it is impossible to know if money can cross the border or
 506 not, should everything or nothing be declared?  What exchange rate
 507 should be used when calculating taxes?  Would receivers have to pay
 508 income tax if the foundation were to pay Skolelinux contributors in
 509 BitCoin?  I have no idea, but it would be interesting to know.</p>
 510
 511 <p>For a currency to be useful and successful, it must be trusted and
 512 accepted by a lot of users.  It must be possible to get easy access to
 513 the currency (as a wage or using currency exchanges), and it must be
 514 easy to spend it.  At the moment BitCoin seem fairly easy to get
 515 access to, but there are very few places to spend it.  I am not really
 516 a regular user of any of the vendor types currently accepting BitCoin,
 517 so I wonder when my kind of shop would start accepting BitCoins.  I
 518 would like to buy electronics, travels and subway tickets, not herbs
 519 and books. :) The currency is young, and this will improve over time
 520 if it become popular, but I suspect regular banks will start to lobby
 521 to get BitCoin declared illegal if it become popular.  I'm sure they
 522 will claim it is helping fund terrorism and money laundering (which
 523 probably would be true, as is any currency in existence), but I
 524 believe the problems should be solved elsewhere and not by blaming
 525 currencies.</p>
 526
 527 <p>The process of creating new BitCoins is called mining, and it is
 528 CPU intensive process that depend on a bit of luck as well (as one is
 529 competing against all the other miners currently spending CPU cycles
 530 to see which one get the next lump of cash).  The "winner" get 50
 531 BitCoin when this happen.  Yesterday I came across the obvious way to
 532 join forces to increase ones changes of getting at least some coins,
 533 by coordinating the work on mining BitCoins across several machines
 534 and people, and sharing the result if one is lucky and get the 50
 535 BitCoins.  Check out
 536 <a href="http://www.bluishcoder.co.nz/bitcoin-pool/">BitCoin Pool</a>
 537 if this sounds interesting.  I have not had time to try to set up a
 538 machine to participate there yet, but have seen that running on ones
 539 own for a few days have not yield any BitCoins througth mining
 540 yet.</p>
 541
 542 <p>Update 2010-12-15: Found an <a
 543 href="http://inertia.posterous.com/reply-to-the-underground-economist-why-bitcoi">interesting
 544 criticism</a> of bitcoin.  Not quite sure how valid it is, but thought
 545 it was interesting to read.  The arguments presented seem to be
 546 equally valid for gold, which was used as a currency for many years.</p>

 569 attacks</a> on Wikileak and
 570 <a href="http://www.salon.com/technology/dan_gillmor/2010/12/06/war_on_speech">free
 571 speech</a>, it has become obvious that PayPal, visa and mastercard can
 572 not be trusted to handle money transactions.
 573 A blog post from
 574 <a href="http://webmink.com/2010/12/06/now-accepting-bitcoin/">Simon
 575 Phipps on bitcoin</a> reminded me about a project that a friend of
 576 mine mentioned earlier.  I decided to follow Simon's example, and get
 577 involved with <a href="http://www.bitcoin.org/">BitCoin</a>.  I got
 578 some help from my friend to get it all running, and he even handed me
 579 some bitcoins to get started.  I even donated a few bitcoins to Simon
 580 for helping me remember BitCoin.</p>
 581
 582 <p>So, what is bitcoins, you probably wonder?  It is a digital
 583 crypto-currency, decentralised and handled using peer-to-peer
 584 networks.  It allows anonymous transactions and prohibits central
 585 control over the transactions, making it impossible for governments
 586 and companies alike to block donations and other transactions.  The
 587 source is free software, and while the key dependency wxWidgets 2.9
 588 for the graphical user interface is missing in Debian, the command
 589 line client builds just fine.  Hopefully Jonas
 590 <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/578157">will get the package into
 591 Debian</a> soon.</p>
 592
 593 <p>Bitcoins can be converted to other currencies, like USD and EUR.
 594 There are <a href="http://www.bitcoin.org/trade">companies accepting
 595 bitcoins</a> when selling services and goods, and there are even
 596 currency "stock" markets where the exchange rate is decided.  There
 597 are not many users so far, but the concept seems promising.  If you
 598 want to get started and lack a friend with any bitcoins to spare,
 599 you can even get
 600 <a href="https://freebitcoins.appspot.com/">some for free</a> (0.05
 601 bitcoin at the time of writing).  Use
 602 <a href="http://www.bitcoinwatch.com/">BitcoinWatch</a> to keep an eye
 603 on the current exchange rates.</p>
 604
 605 <p>As an experiment, I have decided to set up bitcoind on one of my
 606 machines.  If you want to support my activity, please send Bitcoin
 607 donations to the address
