Loyalty Cards....How is one to obtain a card for example if they are in Asia for a Holiday. I have noticed Thailand has many places that excepts Bitcoin  ?

This is really cool. Sant'Agostino is the first auction house to let people bid and settle with Bitcoin.

This brings Bitcoin into yet another aspect of commercial and economic life..

As Bitcoin has touched and passed the 6,000.00 $ mark researchers and the investment communities and media are all talking. The talk is that they see Bitcoin going above 10,000.00 in the near future. I talked about this last week and was talking about 24,000.00 . So it looks like I am not to far off in my look to the future.

To me the opportunity is wide open to the sky.....

I would like to ask about the energy sector. When will we see Cryptocurrency enter or has it entered into this sector.

Bitcoin Erik Finman is throwing the punches as he tangles with Jamie Dimon.

You have to say when you have the millions these two guys have I guess calling each other names is the thing to do. So I have scored the match so far and I would say Finman is the winner so far. All of Dimon keeps talking and he continues to be incorrect in his statements.

This Boxing match should be around for a very long time......

I just do not get it with the comments of the former Fed chairman...Bernanke basically stated the governments will take any action needed to prevent Bitcoin. Really apparently he has not done his reading or homework on this matter.

Maybe he is rattled with the growth of Bitcoin and wants to side with his friend Jamie Dimon.

I am looking at the daily USD price chart for Bitcoin and it is down -1.64% It remains at $ 5,503.31. We are 85.85 $ of the high for today. Looking at the chart we can see that price has settled and remains in the $ 5500.00 dollar rang. It look to be to be a bearish chart and room to go lower and retest the low at 5000.00$. We could possibly see a bounce from there.

Looking Good.......
