You have to declare the movement of $10K or more. We should be happy they are recognizing the bitcoin as a store of value.

The hoodie did not have the phrase “Bitcoin” on it; only the image of the coins. That was his mistake there.

He should have said them that he keeps all the bitcoins in his brainwallet and asked for a free brain MRI :) Title: Re: [2014-02-25] TSA Searching For Bitcoin in All The Wrong Places Post by: hilariousandco on February 25, 2014, 06:46:23 PM https://coinreport.net/tsa-latest-target-is-bitcoin/ fkn tsa Quote Barker notes that he was wearing a Bitcoin not Bombs hoodie which had a picture of a B17 bomber dropping Bitcoin.

I did: Quote It is quite evident from the encounter Barker experienced that the TSA is obviously looking out for Bitcoin. However, it also seems obvious that currently the TSA is not trained so well in what Bitcoin is. It also appears that they are targeting people who have a Bitcoin logo on their person or their belongings. Barker has shared his story in hopes to warn other Bitcoin users to be careful when traveling, especially if internationally.

You have to declare the movement of $10K or more. We should be happy they are recognizing the bitcoin as a store of value. No, I'm not happy at any invasion of anybody's privacy. I don't need official recognition of value - I'm a grown up and can decide for myself what is valuable. The presumption that nobody should be able to move large amounts of value without government oversight is incredibly oppressive. That people don't see this is chilling. Title: Re: [2014-02-25] TSA Searching For Bitcoin in All The Wrong Places Post by: Walter Rothbard on February 25, 2014, 08:04:32 PM This is pathetic:
Quote It turned out that the issue was about not carrying over $10,000 if you are traveling internationally. ... As soon as the agents realized that Barker was not traveling internationally, the left. They don't even recognize their own self-imposed limits on their jurisdiction. The fact that they are official and wear hats and were appointed by those who won popularity contests does not make this invasion of privacy any less intrusive or any more beneficial.

I had a run in with the TSA not too long ago while travelling internationally... these guys go by some very messed up rules.. they treat you lower than dirt and they really do hate it when you question them.. :-[ |
