    Transactions don't have timestamps, but blocks do.  The timestamp on a block is considered to be the time that all of the transactions inside it happened.

    In reality all transactions even in the same block differ in time.
    Nonetheless they all use the same timestamp? Can't really believe that.
    Nonetheless that exactly the chronological order of transfers avoids double-spending?

    Armory restored date+time of all my different transactions (as it seems correctly)
    Was this something like a trick? Visionary power Huh

    P.S.  Your commentary on the whitepaper is wrong, deeply wrong. 

    Why Huh

    You may know a bit about banking, but you don't seem to know anything about the history of cryptocurrencies.  Bitcoin is the solution to problems that you don't seem to even understand as problems.
    Sorry, modesty is my middle name. But I can assure that I know more than "a bit" about banking and money, legally, economically, logically.
    "History" and/or renaming money to "cryptocurrencies" changes what??

    Be sure:
    the basic logic I talk/ed about, was, is and will always be the same - since 100thousand years, forever. Cheesy

    Proofed very well in the other only aggressive comments, totally free of any arguments. Cheesy

    No, really.  As far as bitcoin is concerned, all of the transactions in a block happen at the exact same moment, in the order listed in the block.  They may have been created years ago and published days ago, but that doesn't matter.  They are deemed to have happened at the time listed in the block header's timestamp field.  For extra amusement, keep in mind that the block's timestamp can be in the future or the past.  It is a rare block indeed that actually happened exactly when it claims it happened.

    Your belief in this is not required.  I'm telling you how it really is.

    I hope that the other posts in this thread have led you to do some research into what exactly a cryptocurrency is, and how it differs from a bank ledger.  Bitcoin is not just the same money that you know about under a different name.  It is something new.  Well, new-ish.

    I routinely ignore posters with paid advertising in their sigs.  You should too.
