Ha...ole puppet was off by at least a good 1000 satoshi's!!  Somehow not making me feel all that much better.  Guess we'll see shortly if cryptx steps in with some sort of ground-breaking news...otherwise I think the long-term viability of this asset is pretty much shot.

Yo Cannabit dude wake up mein.  21 days since you've even logged in?  I take it the last crop is done and straight up fire

Where's the pixel-porn mein?  Div's?

As far as long term-retirement fund options go, I can't think of anything better than Bitcoin.

If you purchased 10.4 bitcoins for $495USD please for the love of god hook me up with this person!!!  You can have my first born!

number 1 on my list

Absolutely worth it if your willing to pay to support the network.  You WILL end up with far fewer satoshi's no matter how long you mine with it than you would've had simply buying and holding.

Yup...KnC confirmed to be releasing 20nm product in their next-gen processors.

Liking this thread.  It never ceases to amaze me just how many different types of peoples from so many diverse backgrounds and strengths can be brought together via this thing we call bitcoin!  Would love to one day have access to some serious natural energy to run a huge farm and support the network

Agree that the price is over-valued per GHS on cex.io but also agree that if your a skilled trader you can more than likely make money trading GHS but you had better know what your doing.  I didn't and ended up losing out overall in the little bit of playing I've done.

Only thing I agree with in the OP is the "of course Western Union isn't going to start accepting bitcoin" part.  I think they will hold off on doing so for as long as possible but will ultimately either be forced to adapt or die.  I suspect there are going to be alotta jobs going away in Western Union over the next 2-3 years.

And here's a quick/easy link to the how to do Cold Wallet storage on the blockchain.info site.

This is a lousy price considering a fella could pick up 20,000 Doge right now for ~0.00995 btc on Cryptsy.

Was just looking into possibly purchasing a few of these off of cryptsy but after taking a look at the weak buy support decided otherwise.

I would recommend hedging a bit with the litecoin.  Darkcoin and numerous other X11 and X13 based coins appear to be on an accelerated path insofar as potential profitability.  Obviously that much riskier as well.

Looks like bitcoin is going to hit the proverbial big-time before it's technically even out of beta!! 

I suspect Western Union is terrified of bitcoin right now.  Just putting on a brave face.  Why wouldn't WU support bitcoin if their customers asked for it?  One simple reason, it would crush their existing profitability model all to hell that's why.

I would be more than happy to be a pair of boots on the ground there.  From the images I've seen on google it's absolutely gorgeous!

Definitely think this is good news for bitcoin.  Less/no regulation allows it to thrive much faster in my opinion.

Due to the sheer amount of additional from work all the traffic !hitting my thread I think I'm going to shut er down early.  I know alot of you have been watching closely and where perhaps thinking about making a 'mooouf' at the very last second will now have to forget about it!  :p
