BITCOIN is like that.... There are others out there overseas that can be used to buy stuff...:manny:

Ideally any of it can be actual money but I am thinking that the sheer number of new coins and the ease of making new ones totally ruins the effect of having only BTC and it being finite.

We'll see how this shakes out but I am tripping off people plunking down cash money and what they get in return is just some code. They go look at it each day. The code.

But there is actually bitcoin ATM's and actual QR code readers in the check out cashier registers now so they can utilize it...

:manny: I mean they already use the QR codes and apple pay and google wallet to use real cash it was only a matter of time to actually use bitcoin & Altcoins to buy stuff...

This isn't going to be an easy buy....There's going to be a crazy amount ETH or BTC required just to meet the minimum ICO price

like a poster already said, only problem with cryptocurrency is people are using it as an investment tool, not currency.


it COULD work though

I am talking about the most basic level.

I have a million bucks.

Here's the million bucks in this bag right here. I hand it to you.

You hand me a flash drive that says I have 100 BTC.

What have I just bought? A flash drive

You say: 100 BTC is WORTH a million bucks tho.

I say: I had the actual million bucks 10 seconds ago. So what have I just bought.

The 100 BTC where did they come from? Nowhere. Computer code. Did it cost someone a milliion dollars worth of time to mine them? Even so, you're not discovering new things as with actual mining. With real mining you're adding barrels of oil or diamonds or w/e.

I understand that BTC is harder to trace and not subject to the whims of a government.

But the people buying into it now are simply buying it to save it cause they think it's going up.

They arent buying stuff with them.

And if the price crashes hard someday, some other person has their 401k money and is long gone. The people who were saving BTC will be left with the flash drive and that about it.

We need to get in on our own crypto currency brehs. Anybody should be able to see this scam. You can make retirement off the gullibility of people. The nikka that creates it secures the bag. Anything that happens after that is tough cookie.
