I only use it as a currency. In fact I have never sold a bitcoin. I buy them, then spend them when I shop online. Why? Because it is the fastest, safest, and cheapest way to buy anything from anyone, anywhere on the planet.
Same, I have never sold one, but I am starting up a site and of course I will want to get some cash out of that, but really its pointless to sell your bitcoin.

Sure, I am just uploading it, I am not currently near a starbucks right now, so I can't go get one, but answering your question, does starbucks exist in the netherlands? If starbucks is in the netherlands, and they have a card program, these US starbucks cards will work there. I personally live in Canada, and the starbucks card he gave me was a US starbucks card. Heres the photo of my recent transactions -snip- We have Starbucks, but not the card program, which is why I can't buy one. I would love to do so, but sadly, I can't. And the picture already helps a lot, I can assure you. A lot of people are suspicious about stuff like this so a picture with you holding a coffee is a great way to proof that it's legit. Anyway, why is your card balance only $87? You bought for over $200 right? Or are those different cards? Sorry, not familiar with how it works. Ok for a present I bought my mom 2 50x ones (he didn't have a full 100$ on him) and thats on her phone I spend a bit already, I just went on the plane and now I am in british columbia and I don't currently have a starbucks near me. I am going into down today so maybe I can get a picture there. They are all on different cards, i've got 1x 100$ cards and 2x 50$ cards.

I think you should make them more of a 1v1 type game, I would enjoy that so much. A website where you pay 0.01 BTC (or higher or lower games) to match up against someone random, play against them, and if you win you get their bet as well, and maybe 1% is paid to the house as a fee. Chess, checkers, blackjack, rock paper scissors. I would donate 0.1 if you set that up.
can you provide a good dev.? Sure I will PM you his skype. I would really enjoy using this website.

Oh yea, I've got over 200$ of starbucks cards now, all from him. Thats about 80 coffees!!! Care to post pictures to proof this? For example, your account balance with a cup of Starbucks coffee next to it? I think that would really help out the OP and proof that this is indeed legit. OT: I would love to buy one, but this doesn't exists in The Netherlands, sadly. I would drown myself in their Hazelnut Hot Chocolate. Sure, I am just uploading it, I am not currently near a starbucks right now, so I can't go get one, but answering your question, does starbucks exist in the netherlands?

I just find that our justice system is corrupted, because even if you are clearly guilty, a good lawyer can give to a chance to win. I think that lawyers should be eliminated because it just imbalances the justice system.

Btw, op, 0.01 fee wont confirm your transaction any faster than 0.001 (unless it is very large sized) Haha I was stupid back then. The reason I did this was because I sent 0.4 BTC, but because eveyone else used 0.0002 TX fee, and I used only 0.0001, mine was processed in the block after theirs, and my transactinos were brought to the end of the queue, and you know what happens when you are the last to invest in a ponzi

If it were state run, it would be centralized, therefore it would be fiat, therefore it would be no different than cash. We could have per country cryptos that are decentralized, and bitcoin could be the international, but that wouldn't work for many reasons.
Thats correct. The big difference is they might reduce manufacturing costs of minting/ printing. And the clearing might be cheaper. If we are talking about Eucador then they would want to have monetary controls on their currency to control inflation/ recession. Using BTC for them is like using USD, except its unstable and they can't import w it. The only problem with this, is that only people with technology could use the currency, unless there were bills with private keys on them, which would be annoying to import and you could just take the money off the bill before giving it to the store.

So when the 17th comes around, am I paid automatically or do I have to fill out the payment request form.
You have to fill out the payment form on that day (possibly even the 16th too) or you will not be paid. Read the instructions carefully just to make sure. Wow thats scary. All that work for nothing . I think I'm gonna fill it on the 16th just to be safe. Do I have to re-enroll when the 17th comes around? I assume you would have to. Once you are on the list, you are on for good until you ask to be removed. He stop re-enrolling awhile ago. Ok, but how does he know how many posts I am starting at, my previous total posts number from the payment request?

When huge merchants (its already happening, dell, overstock, newegg) start accepting it, especially apple, and restaurants like mcdonalds and sturbucks, start accepting bitcoin, thats when you will realise it will work as a currency. Imagine how simple it would be to order something. Scan a QR code.

I wondered how you guys though about lawyers. I'm not trying to offend anyone, but I find that the whole idea of lawyers is bad. Chances are if you have a better lawyer, you have a much better chance of winning, even if you are in the wrong. For example, if you are a criminal, you murder someone, your obviously guilty, but if you have the best lawyer, he/she could twist everything and get you out of it. What do you guys think?

What happens if we made a Unviersal Credit Card, that *always* validated transactions, but would take certain amounts of time for each usage.. like to buy a beer, 5 minutes.
but to buy a motorboat, 50 bajillion minutes
Well technically this could be possible through advertising. Watching advertisements on your credit card or something for x amount of minutes would be worth a dollar. Would be pretty cool, watching ads on your credit card outside the bar and you get a free beer in 10 minutes.

You can even request an encrypted flash drive containing an electrum wallet which is what we use for each client's funds. disclaimer: I own the website I've heard good things about bitplastic, which is also owned by you correct?
