Rappers are generally the most immature musicians/artists and I would not want bitcoin associated with most of them
You'd probably feel differently if you weren't so old.
You don't know his age and i am younger and feel the same way, don't jump to conclusions.

Your mind is obviously too old and intolerant for rap, regardless of physical age.

Dolla can also rhyme with more words. What can Bitcoin rhyme with?
well thats the art of rap. if people can make hard words rhyme with something else and make it sound decent, then they will become kings of the music industry.
I went to the store and bought a pork loin bitch asked if i had cash i said hell no only Bitcoin.

Sounds a bit clunky in my head but I suppose a talented rapper could make it work. Depends on the rhythm. You win Smiley

Yeah of course people are making songs about Bitcoin and stuff, but I mean legit big rappers like 2Chainz, Lil Wayne... mainstream rappers. How are these going to transition from dolla dolla to Bitcoin? lol.
Dolla sounds a lot more rhythmic than Bitcoin.
There are other terms.. B's, bits, coins, crypts  Huh  I mean it's their profession, they can  figure something out  Smiley

Hmm... two type of people fall victim to scams.

1. The non-tech savvy
2. The greedy

...I don't care about the second type.
So greedy victims deserve more punishment than the scammer?

Why not just make multiple <$10k deposits from Coinbase? Avoiding the possible bank hassle of a single large deposit is a good enough reason for making multiple smaller deposits.
8  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin startup Circle unveils no-fee digital currency banking on: June 09, 2014, 12:54:48 AM
I'm still trying to understand any advantage this service has over Bitstamp or Coinbase.

Does this service allow clients to keep their assets in either BTC or $$ like Bitstamp?
Does the service allow selling BTC and holding the $$ proceeds in their Circle account, like Bitstamp?
Does the service allow selling BTC and depositing the $$ proceeds directly to one's bank account, like Coinbase?
Does the service allow one to sell their BTC for $$ without fees (not sure if Coinbase charges a fee upon selling)?

Well we have this: BTC already. So why change it
The current bitcoin logo looks ghastly and almost unintelligible in print. Like a squashed bug.

Auctions need a healthy population of bidders to succeed, and that won't happen if the rules tilt too favorably toward sellers.

Does it belong to them already, I thought it would have to go to court to actually seize them properly.
I too was wondering how the gov could sell seized assets of someone who has not had a trial.

...if you are looking for a tax deduction keep in mind that using your BTC for a down on a house may be treated for tax purposes like selling the BTC - if you have a large gain it may create taxable income that you are not thinking about..... just a thought.
How could a home down payment from BTC profit be anything other than a taxable gain (in USA)?

Very misleading (trollish) subject title.

...If they do that and the tax cheats get their coins confiscated then the price will only rise much more for people who file their taxes. Criminals who hoard coins and who get arrested cannot spend their coins and so the price goes up again.

They will have to pay their taxes+penalties and they might get jail time, but they won't have all their coins confiscated.
17  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Which exchange is the most honest and reliable? on: November 29, 2013, 01:47:19 PM
btc-e has recently seen a sharp spike in customer withdrawal complaints. It doesn't help that its defenders are all new to this forum. It would be reasonable to avoid btc-e for now.

It's also reasonable to avoid btc-handlers that don't have a good and long track record.
18  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitstamp $1000 is what counts on: November 28, 2013, 03:52:09 PM
now we are at $1000 Smiley
MtGox just reached $1216.

Most of us trust a 3rd party to handle our stored financial assets. Banks, stockbrokers, etc. I don't think mainstream btc users will ever catch on to using offline wallets, and if they do it will be a less convoluted solution like Electrum.

From what I've read here and on reddit, offline wallets are as vulnerable to allowing btc to disappear as much or more than 3rd party online solutions with a good track record.
20  Economy / Speculation / Re: This is why bitcoin will go up X5-X10 more on: November 26, 2013, 11:57:11 AM
I've personally bought a lot of stuff with Bitcoin, and not sorry for it. Grin

Bought some stuff as well, also not sorry, but you can't help but go: "Wow, that bike I bought is now a 80000$ bike" ^^
Edit: That bike cost $80,000 only if you didn't replace the btc you used for the purchase. I always make a replacement purchase of btc before spending them.
