When people start taking Paypal, beer and bitcoins in Gear Swap I'll be a believer.
what if this is the begining of the wave of retailers not wanting to take this anymore? Can you blame them for not wanting to deal with this at least not for a little while: http://www.businessinsider.com/valve...itcoin-2017-12

100%. One of the prime measures of a currency is it's stability. It just so happens Bitcoin is going up not down. Beer has a shelf life so that's why it's not a great currency outside of TGR.Quote:

wealth disparity creates bubbles
More like Albania circa 1996. Anyone remember when most of the nation of Albania invested their meager savings in a pyramid scam that, when it blew up, it started a minor civil war, overturned a government and got a few thousand people killed in riots? Only 20 years ago...Quote:

This is a fun wave, but what good is it if you don't spend any of it?

Bitcoin not volatile enough? How about trading futures?
https://www.wsj.com/articles/bitcoin...ers-1512745187 A short quote from the article:
Quote:
Is bitcoin not volatile enough for you? Try trading bitcoin futures.
This weekend’s launch of the first U.S. bitcoin futures will let investors add bitcoin to their portfolios through the same electronic brokerages they use to trade stocks and options. And futures will allow people who think bitcoin is overpriced to “short” it—bet that its price will fall.
But a key point is that futures will let risk-loving traders place leveraged bets on bitcoin. That means they can magnify their profits if their bets pay off, but also face potentially steep losses if they are wrong.
“Cryptocurrency is already so volatile,” said Aitan Goelman, a former head of enforcement at the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. “If you’re futurizing it, it’s like adding rocket fuel to the volatility.”
Anyone playin in litecoin?? Nice 24 hour run.... get you some.
Looking for a high point today and then selling my BTC.
I think I need to stay in my lane.
Sold a Range Rover to a guy yesterday and he is coming up with a block chain for medical payments.
Of course he is ...Quote:

He definitely has the healthcare expertise and a few billion to do it. Probably not the only one with that idea.Quote:
