Right now, the pre-orders are closed. So you'll have to wait. Or there is a risky option to buy it from the third party vendors. I'll strongly advice against any such move.

Store your BTCs securely and make regular backups. Try to earn more and more BTCs.

Be proud to be an early Bitcoin adopter. All the best!

Feeling lucky today!!

Let me try my luck. 

Contact Viktor Bout. He might be able to help you. However, I am not sure whether he accepts BTC or not.

Or perhaps they might have bought it from someone else, using their clients' money. They'll mine it for some 6-7 months, and then they'll ship it to the unfortunate client.

I would have ordered one if it was affordable. But a price of $480 means almost 10% of my BTC holdings. I would wait for some more time till the price is reduced. Or may be I will be able to obtain an used device in the near future.

It is not possible to freeze them, as the cops don't have the private keys. Perhaps it is the Bitpay account which is frozen.

Perhaps they hack thousands of DVRs at a time, making thousands of $$$. Not worth the risk though.

Also, there is a very large Hungarian minority in Romania who wants to merge with Hungary.

This is not the first time that I am seeing frustrated Romanians posting here, asking Moldovia to merge with Romania. But the truth is that not even 10% of the Moldvins want to do so (I mean the ethnic Moldvins, who constitute 69% of the population). Support among the other minorities (Russians, Gagauzes, Ukrainians, Bulgars.etc) for this measure is practically 0.

And remember that some 600,000 Moldvins work in RF (15% of the total population, one-fourth of all adults). The attachment to Russia is much more than any historical link to Romania.

Those 39 deaths were a great tragedy. But when the US media barks so much about that incident, it reminds me of this proverb:

The NATO and the US doesn't care about Tibet because they don't have the balls to stand up to the Chinese bullying.

My advice will be to stay away from all these BTC-based equities and corporations. 90% of the time they turns out to be ponzi schemes. And I have myself lost around 25 BTC in the BTCT.co scam.

Bitcoin was created as an alternative to the greedy bankers. And now you want Banks which deals with BTC?

The HSMP programs have attracted some good quality talent to the EU, but the numbers are not that high.

In my country, long-term capital gains tax is much lower than income tax. So right now, it is a win-win situation. Right?

When I bought BTCs in 2013 January, I used localbitcoins.com. But paid a 20% premium.

The state of Pennsylvania do have death penalty. But I don't think that the biased jury will ever give this monster any sort of meaningful punishment.

Oh... At least some of the Turks do some economically productive activity. Look at all those Somalis and Congolese. 99% of them live off welfare receipts and commit heinous crimes. I don't understand the logic of bringing millions of these people to the EU, when they can recruit hard working people from the Eastern Europe.
