That would not be a profitable trade because of the fees (too small percent).

And so does hundreds of others. Whats the news here really?

Not everyone has to be an extrovert in this world. I appreciate these type of people, that are often a bit more silent and can come across a bit shy. But they are often the ones you should really listen to. We have already our Max Keiser. Not everyone has to shout to get their point across.

Guys, think about it for a while.

To be able to control worlds reserve currency is one of the biggest weapons US has. Why on earth would they be giving that power willingly away? That is just not plausible. Americans would also never ever invent a currency that calls one of its units with a japanese name "Satoshi".

Remember that the people running US are not exactly technological geniuses. Many of the have serious problems even understanding what bitcoin is about. Can you imagine a secret meeting in which some government hacker suggests:

"Hey guys, I came up with this idea! Now this might sound complicated to some of you but it's really great.. Well we can't control our currency anymore if we do this, but please listen the whole story before you downvote! It's based on cryptography which you NSA guys hate, but don't be too fast to dismiss this complicated plan..."

After the long silence, there would probably be a single liner like "Tom, your fired."

Why exactly is death imposed on the chartbuddy images?

In what way were they bad? Because they act in a calm manner instead of like revivalist preachers? All their answers were accurate and they appeared moderate and pleasant. You are setting pretty high standards by criticizing them.

Oh come on! They did a really good job in that interview.

To da moon!!

Looking more and more like a trend reversal..

I enjoyed especially the surprising ending!

Oh come on guys.. If I buy something with btc I will instantly replenish my bitcoins by buying more BTC with fiat. Major retailers accepting BTC will make more people buy bitcoin, which buffers the need of the retailers to go fiat once in a while.

Boom, bitstamp up 32% Crazy stuff!

Thanks! The voice actually belongs to my former teacher who happens to also host a radio show, so I thought he might be able to pull it off.

Thank you so much for everyones suggestions!

nope

Thank you very much, I will edit your suggestion in!

I'm aware that many economists think deflation is bad because of that. But here's what I always respond:

You say nobody want's to buy due to deflation because price will be cheaper tomorrow. I say with the same logic nobody should want to sell due to inflation because price will be higher tomorrow. Yet people are selling things all the time. People are also buying massive amounts of phones and computers, even though they will be better tomorrow. In real life, very few people can afford to hoard and wait. We have needs as humans that can't be put on hold forever.

I do believe some unnecessary consumption might be cut, but some might argue that is exactly what our planet needs in order to better maintain the rising population.

I noticed there was one small part still missing from my text earlier:

"Most people would probably teach their children to rather save money for their purchases instead of taking large amounts of credit. It suites common sense to have a monetary system which rewards saving money instead of debt taking."

Could that sentence be improved?

Thank you so much for your constructive help! I included every suggestion you guys made! I'm now really looking forward to recording this on Monday!

I on the other hand think it's amazing to see bitcoin so stable at the current levels. It might drop some because we are in a bearish market, but if this goes at all like the april crash then we are moving sideways for a while on a very nice level. And that gives me an underlying bullish feeling allthough I'm a bit bearish short term.
