Just got my IRS refund yesterday...wanted to put it all into bitcoins but prefer to buy when people are panicking.
Perfect timing...added many more BTC to my wallet.

Cool this would a great adapter allowing the masses to get into bitcoin.... If Western Union or another company starts doing worldwide fiat to bitcoin orders and visa versa then we're practically ready for the masses. Only one downside.... Xapo has your bitcoins do you trust them? ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) Nowadays trust seems to be an issue ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) They are backed by millions in VC money. They are here to stay. I would trust them with enough BTC for a week or so of spending money.

Its not 1.2% per year.
It's .12% per year for cold storage vault.
The wallet is free.
Even better.

I believe this company has got it right when it comes to a Bitcoin to debit card business: http://www.coindesk.com/xapo-launches-bitcoin-debit-card-accepted-at-all-mastercard-locations/This is the Bitcoin MasterCard we were all drooling over a few years ago but never came to be. You store your bitcoins in the Xapo wallet either in cold storage or a hot wallet. You swipe your card at any place that takes MasterCard just as you would do with any other card and they check to see if you have enough bitcoins in your hot wallet to cover the price. If you do, the coins are automatically exchanged for the cost of your purchase. I think that right now the biggest question is the cost. If it is just their 1.2% yearly fee of holding your bitcoins in their vault, then this is a huge step forward. Especially if they can get your bitcoins to you in whatever currency of the country you are in. As someone who has traveled to several countries, the costs of converting to local currency suck big time. If people are able to use this card and travel the world, they would be ahead of all other credit card companies. This could cause a huge swell in adoption.

This already exists. You can pay 2% to have your bitcoins in a Bitcoin vault.

The Only way, it can be increased is when the chinese people are back into the game. You will see how the price will be increased.
We definitely need to wait for the Chinese to get back into the game so they aren't left behind for the world's new currency. It's only fair.

This is funny. People are so spoiled by the meteoric rises that they can't go a day without seeing a +/- $100 change each day.
If I am not having a mild heart attack every day then Bitcoin has failed.

Yes, we are crying and for good reason. Face facts. Stop living in a fantasy land of pure hope with no substance. BTC is so overvalued that it's an insult to capitalism. BTC, and its naive investors, are living in their own little world while all sorts of private and unknown factors are conspiring against it behind the scenes. When these influences crash the party, BTC prices will get a bloody thrashing! Mt. Gox, alone, will reset the BTC price button. The 200k coins (and the other hundreds of thousands of additional coins that will be found!) are going to be privately sold to wealthy investors at deep discounts. The same investors will buy up all the panic sales, rebuild the BTC space the right way and, in the process, push out all the little guys. No one is winning in this version of BTC, except for lucky in/out traders or those that got in pre-$25-50. Over the long-term, BTC's second incarnation will be the only real winner. Hate to be the bearer of bad news. I'd rather know now than get hammered when the wealthy take over BTC.
Final Warning for Long-term holders...

Comparing Putin to a president that sent hundreds of thousands of people to their death in order to "preserve the union" is hardly praise.
Saw the Hollywood propaganda movie Lincoln a few days ago. Not an iota of truth in it, quite similar to other stupid Hollywood movies. Felt like throwing up... but still how many Oscars did it go? They will make a similar movie about Putin in 50 years. And it will be equally good for insomnia.

The information says they are selling 10% of the safecoins. But is that current safecoins or is there a hard cap?
I like the idea and the project and would likely create some software for this but if safecoin has no hard cap and is inflationary then it is like dollars and should only be used when needed but not held. Let alone, purchased as an investment. Imagine buying Zimbabwe dollars.
No it's the hard cap, 10% prefarm! the rest are "farmed" by providing storage space to the storage network. If you wonder why I keep writing farm its because thats what they call mining mining I think because it suggests positive contribution of..rather than burning of resources! Ok, thanks for the clarification.
