A 75% tax rate will do much more harm than good. Sadly most politicians have a hard time grasping economics 101.

If credit cards take 180 days to be confirmed how will you buy coffee at Starbucks?
well, there's a 3rd party ensuring that you won't be scammed (when using a credit card). with bitcoin, there's only you and the provider. Credit cards don't protect the merchant from getting scammed. If you make a purchase and then report the card stolen, they'll steal the money back from the merchant so they can repay the cardholder. In short, credit cards are safer for consumers, but Bitcoin is safer for merchants. Agreed, the current system is incredibly unfair for merchants, who always get left holding the bag. Even if they do all the proper steps. Bitcoin is a monstrously huge improvement.

I just read this at Zero Hedge as well. If it is centralized, which I can't see JPMorgan not making it, then it is not going to take off like bitcoin. It may find some success and even be more useful than the current visa payment system on the internet, but I highly doubt it would replace an open sourced free bitcoin.

You're right, 400K is an estimate but from what I've read, the FBI have seized the company bitcoins but not his PERSONAL funds, of which there is an estimated 400K. And wow, at the current price that's over £200M
what is that, like 80 Papa John's pizzas? W0W! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

I doubt it will over take it by 2016. But it will definitely cause them a lot of headaches going forward.

You never know. But I have a strong feeling that major hedge funds (some already have) will be moving into bitcoin in a serious way in 2014.
