you all forget that it also has to be safe from the user's forgetfulness

it has to have some backup options too

dog's collar? what the hell are you thinking? And if it runs off or something? Same goes to other examples.

Brilliant idea. Every country could make their own digital currency

Your trust rating has made me decide not to accept the "kind" offer.

50% return for 15 days, what O.o
My ID required too? Social number comes free with that package..

Going back to the Baidu (or whatever the Chinese Google is called) I saw that as the most bullish news yet for BTC. People need to understand that when BTC is taken in by a large company like that, you can have reasonable certainty that the Government has a hand in it or at least gave the OK. And now there is the news of more BTC on CCTC regarding that Canadian ATM. The volume in China is now surpassing the US exchanges.

What happens when India Joins in? This is going to get bubbly and it might not really even be a bubble...

I've done plenty of remittances for people, using Bitcoin since 2011. It's pretty much the *only* business I've done in Bitcoin aside from mining. I think you guys underestimate the size of Western Union. They have been around forever and would likely adopt/integrate Bitcoin before failing. They essentially have a trust network that puts the OTC to shame. They do somewhere over 500,000 transactions per day compared to Bitcoin at 50,000 (which, let's be honest, are likely mostly internal instead of peer-to-peer).

Bitcoin might be making a dent in Western Union, I'm not going to lie. But I doubt it'll be replacing it anytime soon.

The speed at which USD is getting irrelevant is no joke. The end to petrodollar is being invented right here in the US, thanks to Tesla

She contacted me an hour ago saying she will pay me back next week, but also requesting another smaller loan, which I do not have or can give since she did not pay back at the promised time.

She seem's trustworthy so I hope this was a bad week for her and she can repay next week.

get some rapper to make a song about bitcoin is your response to changing government or beginning a revolution?

unlike eminem or other rappers that would just make a song and thats it.. who would you have in mind. and how would that actually change things long term.

now getting back to my statement, having someone the public recognise that when they say something, its atleast honest and a better step in the right direction. and then having the passion and desire to want change is the next step. russell brand isnt just saying words, he honestly does want to create change. he has alot of activism history and getting his nose into matters such as the G-20, iran and other issues..

what has marshall mathers done.. handed some food to a food bank as a promotion for his foundation, which is now a tax dodge.

as for the winklevoss twins.. they are not selling or promoting bitcoin, they are selling personal shares into their own company which they value at X amount of bitcoins.. its their attempt to cash in on the bitcoin hype, as they missed doing it with the gold or platinum hype of decades gone.

Thanks for the money, suckers! lol I <3 BTCJam! I've made over 75 BTC with it so far Right now I have about a dozen new loan requests out on BTCJam, but you'll never guess which ones they are Who needs to buy ASICs when there's BTCJam LOL

would you prefer a politician that pretends he has no sexual desires in his veins, brains and DNA, a politician that denies inhaling drugs, a politician that just talks about what people want to hear, knowing after its said nothing changes
while later it comes to light he is a recovering drug addict and a womaniser.

or would you prefer a person that actually speaks his mind openly, that doesn't hide behind what nanny states call inappropriate and doesnt have its hands tied to 50 other politicians before a single speech or decision can be made.

i would love it if bush, clinton, or obama showed their human side.. by simply pointing at their wives and say 'i tap that, every night' we all know they do it, so why be against a human being that is not afraid to admit his previous failings with drugs and women.. i think honestly is the best policy.. and NOT policy without honesty is best
