Thank you.

You send first I'll by them all.

Can you please post an address with 23 bitcoins.

The US Government has made it pretty clear that the use of virtual currencies, and specifically bitcoin, is NOT illegal.  And if their plan was to "make it illegal" while in the world would they do that in the first place.  

The US Government is still trying to figure this out and what to do about it.  You can actually read the latest here.

Bitcoin: Questions, Answers, and Analysis of Legal Issues

If I was going to worry it would be about the tax implication of bitcoin.  The United States Government Accountability Office issues a report to the US Senate Committee on Finance entitled:
"VIRTUAL ECONOMIES AND CURRENCIES Additional IRS Guidance Could Reduce Tax Compliance Risks"

Here is a podcast with the James R. White, the GAO's Director of Tax Issues

If the USG saves those BTC for a few years maybe they could use it to pay down the debt.

I have to say the flame neg rating cause you guys don't like each other kinda deletes the purpose of the trust system.  I've traded successfully with sublime dozens of times with no  problem.  He's fully transparent  and public about who he is.  Of course he can be a dick but can't we all.  

Your neg rating makes you look untrustworthy, which I know you are not.

You two should kiss and make up.

No idea.  escrow.ms is collecting personal information

+1 for Kelticfox  (dude what is up with that neg trust.  is that all from Sublime??)

Thanks for this.  I love this one:


So true....

I'm not familiar with Rome Treaty.

Is someone also collecting personal information on Projects.  I'm sure between us we have all the banks accounts and emails and locations he's been using.

The word "currency" implies  it is currently in use as a medium of exchange.  And a medium of exchange is what ever two people agree has value to them.  Whether it is eggs, oil or bitcoin.

A lot of people value bitcoin.  A lot of people use them to trade and/or buy things.  There for bitcoin is a currency.

Now whether or not it is a good or bad currency, only time will tell, regardless of what all the talking heads say.

Right before the big asteroid  his the earth.  All the dinosaurs where sitting around saying "This is fucking great!  We rule the world"  They never knew what hit them.

Ilanoh,  I understand the sentiment but that is a very naive attitude.  

1.  You've just stated that you intend to commit a crime (in any jurisdiction with taxation laws) on a public forum.

2.  Your explanation does not hold water.  If you are located in the US the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network has already issued guidance that virtual currencies are legally considered "other value that substitutes for currency" which makes it use and transmission subject to a host of financial service laws and regulations including civil and criminal prosecution.

3.  Even if you are not in the US, DreadPirateRoberts and his administrates and users and sellers thought their bitcoins were safe from from the long arm of the law and that proved to be an incorrect assumption.

4. While I'm not aware of many taxation rulings outside the US when these rulings are put in place again you would become subject to civil and criminal fines and penalties buy trying to evade them.

I'm not saying that is right or wrong.  I'm just stating the facts.  

(ok begin the personal attacks!)

Site is back.

Here are a couple of taxation scenarios.

If you are a miner the GOV could tax your block reward and fee on receipt as income.

Then at the time you convert those coins to fiat you could also be taxed with a capital gains if the price increased.

In Countries where there is a Value Added Tax (VAT) they could put a premium on bitcoin transactions and make its use more expensive then credit cards and other forms of payment.

For the regular user/trader  I would expect that bitcoin earnings or loss would be taxed as a capital gain or loss at the very least.

Lot of theories and speculation out there.

I'd expect a US IRS ruling before April 15, 2014.

You can record what ever you want.  You just won't be able to use it in a court of law in some jurisdictions, thus the suggestion to record all calls and create transcripts of the calls in those states where two party consent is required.
