If the skinhead is behaving in a civil manner then I believe that he should serve him. It is unlikely though that a skinhead would go dine and support a jewish restaurant though. Ghandi once said, "You need to be the change you wish to see in the world".

I agree, the decimal places certainly may scare away newbies.
A bigger issue in my opinion is how volatile BTC is, I'd prefer to see them stable at any price than rising 5-10%/day, people are afraid and think it will inevitably fall.

This guy really needs a scammer tag :@
He should be banned not just simply tagged... |

Could you please private message me a general idea of what price you are looking for?
Thanks.

I can see a reasonable amount of logic to this.
As a gambler I personally will settle for convenience and casinos offer this. The house edge doesn't greatly effect your odds if you do a few bets, chances are you won't lose to that.
I do find it interesting that there are a lot of people who speculate the market and some don't remotely view it as gambling even though the risks of that are far greater in my opinion.

I don't know where to start with this one. Is this what journalism has come to? "Ha ha, you're nerds. Ha ha, your little currency experiment is stupid and *pointless*. Ha ha. Bitcoin is a bubble. Ha ha ha" Her first ever article for Guardian CiF was on the Facebook IPO. ( http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cifamerica/2012/may/18/facebook-ipos) If you read it while replacing "Facebook" with "Bitcoin", it's almost the same article. What the fuck is this woman's problem? She clearly hates 'geeks', and appears to be such a gargantuan idiot that she can't tell the difference between a ponzi IPO and the world's first cryptocurrency. Nice find, and very true. I just can't believe someone who writes articles for the guardian can just make up such blatant lies about dictators hiding their money in bitcoins etc. |

Absolutely, attacks on exchanges hurt the credibility of bitcoins and threaten their entire ecosystem to an extent.
If a hurricane went through NYC and the NYSE had to shut down it would certainly affect prices. Even hurricane sandy effected the prices of stocks negatively to an extent.

Bitcoin needs a presskit and PR system.
https://www.weusecoins.com/ was a good step in the right direction, the issue currently is that people are more interested in raising awareness rather than making an argument for them. I fully agree with you. |

It's been annoying me for a while how so many people view bitcoin in such a negative light. http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/apr/03/bitcoin-currency-bubble-crash-not-rocking-financial-markets
This article in question written by the Guardian no less, describes bitcoins as: An obscure digital currency – used mostly for running drugs and laundering money for dictators – suffered a sudden crash on Wednesday, For Bitcoin to begin to grow and reach a true mainstream appeal something needs to be done about its image which is being unfairly portrayed in the media. Any thoughts on how the public image of bitcoins can improve? And what percentage of bitcoin transactions do you think are illegal? Would appreciate input, Thanks. |

The down time is really getting irritating at this point :\

Very interesting, I can certainly see an advantage.
My curiosity is simply in how the taxes would work since when you normally sell a stock for cash you pay large capital gains taxes, as much as 40% for short term. If you are selling for bitcoins though you wouldn't have to necessarily.
The legal risk for the people operating this is massive though. At a 1% commission right now it is a -EV game, in the future this could be quite promising.

While it is THE black market currency, it has been receiving a lot of press as of late which has spun it beyond that public image in my opinion. Now it is just recognized as a valid currency. When you have people like my father asking me if I have any bitcoins you know it is starting to become a big deal.

I agree with you to a great extent, a currency must have some sort of stability for it to be truly valued. I honestly hope that bitcoins settle at a price in the near future my heart can't handle this much excitement every day.
If I was a some sort of vendor I wouldn't accept bitcoin at the moment unless they were immediately cashed simply because I'd fear selling a computer for $1500 worth of bitcoins then watch that fall potentially the next day.
When bitcoin stabilizes, the marketplace will be more and more willing to accept them as a payment option.

This growth is not sustainable in my opinion, I definitely think things could go either way though in the short term. Have been flip flopping between buying more coins and cashing out.

Have been finding this extremely useful, been playing with all the various sites. Thanks  |

"Digital" Seems more appropriate.  |

Why not try both? Split up your funds.
