Will USA use bitcoins as a currency next year?

[romero121]

USA never circulates bitcoin as a currency. In my opinion I have seen many people describing it as a token than a currency.

i have been hearing arguments from bitcoiner saying that ther uplines telling them that the US president have took into consideration to use bitcoin as a currency to be used such as paying a cup of coffee and other services. I dont believe it but If its true can somebody tell me the exact story about that stuff.

I'm not sure, if the news is right, the US government will adopt bitcoin next year as currency.

it's too fast. I think they should talk about this in a long enough time before considering whether it's accepted or not.

I think the whole world will use bitcoins. This currency will be the world currency very soon ... It will be a source of imports and exports of the countries ... If this happens (I hope it happens) I'm already packing for early holiday hahahaha

It's highly unlikey. Bitcoin offers a decentralized system, and a centralized system such as the government would do anything in their power to promote a hierarchy rather than providing a decentralized system.
It's all about Monopoly at the end of the day, and the government won't lose theirs so easily.
Over a period of time, things may change, as of now, in my opinion, it's a difficult cause.

Not so soon I guess.  The U.S. dollar is fiat money. It is the currency most used in international transactions and it is the world's primary reserve currency.  So they will not just dump their currency for bitcoin.

Unfortunately, good things do not happen quickly and easily.

Aren't they using it already? I mean I have never been to the USA but I heard you can pay with Bitcoin in some stores and even in the Starbucks. Is that not true?

Yeah right its impossible that bitcoin will be a currency/.. bitcoin s just like a gold and you need to exchange or sell it before they turn into fiat or money..  so usd will still remain bitcoin will stay as digital currency.

Yes very well said . Bitcoin will not be totally used by the USA as a currency they are just using it as a currenly through online transaction but it will never be replace US dollars because it is a international currency and it is used all over the globe .

Its hard to say on the % of people. Since I dont see any graph chat that can allocated what type of transaction is spent for unless it was labeled.

But most of the transactions till this day has been known for gambling then spending it at some store at starbucks.
