This is just awesome/hilarious... Max Keiser on RT goes wild for Bitcoin. This comes after he visited here in NY and met with some of the local Bitcoiners, including Bitcoin Jesus. He's now a raving disciple  "Only Satoshi the Bitcoin Cyber-Christ is going to save us." -Max Keiser https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=_t39jCXXIrY |

Good old Max. Whatever you think of him, you've got to admit he tells it like it is (idolatry or no!). I remember sitting a few seats to his right at one of the lectures at last year's Bitcoin conference. He is more than just a convert for sure. |

I love this guy  He gets excited about something and doesn't bother to hide it. But that makes him honest; he feels strongly for Bitcoin, and rightly so. |

Max has been talking about bitcoin on his shows for a while now, this one was good. He also pushes the "Silver Liberation Army" as a way to kill off JP Morgan, if its feasable or not i don't know. You can even get Kieser silver Oz rounds from various mints.
Anyway he's a legend.

Erik please tell me you have some more backstory on this! Was he up all night? He seems like he is a little out of it.  I've watched this segment 4 times today, and I love it. Other people are going to think he's nuts but I'm thrilled to see Max happy for a change. |

Haha I think he was freezing his ass off in the video, and maybe had to pee also, and maybe was wired on coffee. |

he is definitely on the money when he says Bitcoin can be worth $1000 to 100,000 or more.
just imagine it. don't EVER think that 7 billion people will all be using Bitcoin. but take a more reasonable number.
21 million people (for simple maths)
if each of those people wanted to store $1000 of their savings as Bitcoin... boom a average price of $1000 per coin AT LEAST(once all coins are mined. or currently nearly $2000 at current circulation amounts)
so ill end this by saying
I'm glad i am a Bitcoin..............

I wonder what Max Keiser will be saying if Russia were to take a stance against bitcoin....I'm sure his spiel would change to something like "Bitcoin designed by evil fatcats in Washington blah blah blah blah..."

believe it or not RT isn’t that bad, there are occasional pro Russia type propaganda pieces, but they do report all the same Russian scandals and alike that the BBC n that cover, they don’t censor like the BBC do that’s for sure. he is definitely on the money when he says Bitcoin can be worth $1000 to 100,000 or more.

I've been thinking about this, what if 21million people wanted there wages paid in bitcoin??? or what if 100million people just wanted to use bitcoin for online shopping? (apparently e-commerce is worth 1trillion USD) Then think about the money in the black market, and wall street types that may find uses for it... big potential I think. |

Have you actually ever sat down and watched RT for any length of time (ie a couple of hours). It's absolutely 95% propaganda garbage, with the 5% being about ridiculously inconsequential local Russian news pieces, such as a donkey hot dog eating contest attended by 50 people dressed in burlap stacks in Siberia. EVERY story mentions the US or UK or EU in a negative manner. Even stories that you start off thinking "at least this story can't be about the US" end by being about the US. Story: Earthquake in Haiti; US fault. Story: AIDs in Africa; US fault. Many hotels here (in Thailand) have really crappy free satellite service, so whenever I'm on holiday I end up getting stuck watching RT. The stories are so ridiculous that I watch it for the laughs. I'm not saying any other news services are great and true, but RT is straight up garbage. |
