Title: Wallet.dat is the Swiss bank account of the 21st Century
Post by: billyjoeallen on June 02, 2011, 01:42:08 AM
Numbered Swiss accounts are no longer safe. U.S. gov. strong-armed the Swiss into rolling over on their account holders. Damn Uncle Sam's got his tentacles everywhere- almost every country except Cuba, North korea and Iran -and your money's even less safe there. The only way to offshore your funds is to go WAAAAAAY offshore. But Bitcopin ain't an island. It's a motherf*cking submarine.

Yup. It's beter than a Swiss bank account. Wealth at your fingertips, anywhere in the world, at any time. You can encrypt your life savings and put it in a USB stick in your pocket, or email it to yourself. It's the currency for the modern Galt's Gultch, except it's everywhere the Internet is.

It's not a submarine, it's a starship!
Worship the one, true, and free currency!

Although if you were using mtgox and wanted to withdraw a billion dollars, it would take about 30 years.
