Political Crossfire Forums

Anxiously awaiting the dumb bastards that try to break into one of these to get the coins out of it.

Did you even read the article? If yes...come again? If not, read it. You'll benefit.

Just remember: Everyone else has been following bitcoins for years. Just because this is all new to you, and an ideologically pleasing way to lose money, doesn't mean it holds any mystery for the rest of us. So you can leave you Cap'n Obvious cape next to the bathrobe for the time being.
You ranted on the boards for months about bitcoins at about the same time they wound up finally getting TV coverage...and now they've suffered a severe crash and so you feel the need to try to save face. Its only the internet. Don't sweat it.

Personally, considering the timing with the media interest, I think you fell into this thing very recently, and have at least three different complexes about it.

Otherwise, why so typically troll my post?

Next time...bet on horse races. For srs.

lol

that outburst just proved I'm right.

I really don't think that this is all that complicated. What is "money" after all? Gold has no inherent value. Neither do diamonds. They are only valuable because we say they are, and because they are somewhat rare.

Well, same thing with any money. Dollars have a value because we all agree that it does, and because dollars are somewhat rare. Bitcoins will or will not have that same value - but only if everyone agrees on it. And, until governments (the single largest traders of currency) say that they have value, then they won't catch on.
