2321  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How much do scammers and criminals harm bitcoin? on: December 03, 2013, 08:24:54 PM
I am a novice in bitcoin world and now have been reading through this forum and bitcoin related blogs. Seems that almost every website that offers you a possibility to invest, spend, lend etc bitcoins is a scam. Especially now when the price has rocketed, the fraudsters and cybercrimals seem to have launched a full scale attack to get their share. To find real honest opportunities to invest or spend bitcoins need substantial amount of work. So I wonder whether scammers and underground criminals have hijacked bitcoin. Could they even destroy the emerging bitcoin economy?
I notice you used "almost", but you must understand that with Bitcoin, you must do the same as if you were lending, investing, spending... cash.
You wouldn't give cash to a complete stranger promising you unrealistic returns, right?

I'm wondering how the logistics of buying/selling a house in BTC would work.
From the U.S. or state government's perspective, what would be involved? Certainly, they'd want to tax the transaction somehow
I think the tax problem would be the most worrying one. However I'm sure it must not be so hard to come up with a solution.

I've always been curious, why do some people put the dollar sign after the number?  That seems so unusual to me..
Many currencies have their currency symbol after the amount.
Just an example: for euros it is 1,000€.
I have to correct you on this. It is either "€1,000" or "1,000 euro". This is the same in all western countries. Putting the currency sign at the back or the word at the front is wrong.

For countries like China where they write right-to-left, I can see why it would be the other way around, however.
I live in Europe. I can assure you that everything using Euros, including banks, format their amounts in this syntax:

100€
100 EUR

No one, I repeat, absolutely no one, will put the currency sign at the left of the amount. And I live in Western Europe. France, Germany, Spain... all of them do it this way (I'm yet to find anyone from these countries or from my own to do it the other way).

Where are you from?

EDIT:
Have some proof: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euro#Pi.C3.A8ces

How are the amounts formatted? Smiley
