And why is the market rate not 1000 USD / BTC? They might well be worth that much or more some day but there is also the risk of them becoming worthless through bubbles or not catching on.

Such is the problem of the entrepreneur, forever balancing fear and greed. The early-adopters of any technology are due to make out well if that technology is accepted in the marketplace. The amount of resolution built into Bitcoin will make it a much more liquid market than a physical commodity with similar valuations due to a limit on fungibility. But, in order for anyone to make out like a bandit, as the thread implies, the market for Bitcoins needs to improve dramatically. Ta, Title: Re: Who's going to make out like a bandit... Post by: NewLibertyStandard on August 02, 2010, 07:10:26 PM People usually disagrees with me whenever I mention it, but the phrase "make out like a bandit" sure comes across as "kiss like a bandit". :-* It sounds a lot better as "make off like a bandit". Am I right or am I right?

I'm not a native English speaker, and while I do have a lot of exposure to English on my everyday's work, some terms, such as the one in the thread topic, get me thinking: "Hmmm, I wonder how it is that bandits make out."
I don't like these thoughts, mind you, so I'll just distract myself by typing './bitcoind getinfo' on the console over and over again, and wonder in vain when is it that the pesky number of bitcoins will decide to change!

Make your way out = get away. The actual expression is _made_ out like a bandit. It makes better sense in past tense. cheers! Title: Re: Who's going to make out like a bandit... Post by: gangplank on November 28, 2013, 03:39:30 AM So did any of you make out like bandits?
Title: Re: Who's going to make out like a bandit... Post by: Bill Bisco on November 28, 2013, 04:18:17 AM I truly believe that $1000 USD / 1 BTC is just the beginning. If people want to sell, that's their business. I don't see any bandits here.

The believers are waiting for $10,000 and $50,000. :-) Title: Re: Who's going to make out like a bandit... Post by: ScaryHash on November 28, 2013, 06:05:06 PM I hear you there.
But, at the moment, it does feel good to see it over $1000. Gox right now is at $1200... People called Bitcoin lots of things, now they should sit up and take notice. New article at CNN.com money, says it can actually be part of a portfolio, although "no more than 1%"....which I think is bs. Why, because stocks aren't a bubble? lol Title: Re: Who's going to make out like a bandit...
