Recently, Bitcoin market cap (i.e. total value of all Bitcoins issued) reached the $2 billion mark, surpassing small countries like Liberia and Guinea.
This should have been obvious.
isn't it $20 billion?

The authority for this is
http://www.coinometrics.com/bitcoin/bmix

Go to the bottom of the page and select Full Data Table
Bitcoin is currently 71 in the world (out of 191 countries) between azerbijan and lithuania

burma at 12 million?


okay, who wants to go in with me and buy burma?

Hmm, you know what, that's actually an interesting proposition. It's probably hard to buy a country using national fiat currencies, no matter how rich you are, but with bitcoins... you just might be able to do it (i.e., pay out the government + military to leave the country / hand over control). Maybe we will see a brave new world of corporations taking over nations now that they have a financial vehicle with which to do it.

The growth in power of multinational corporations is already signaling change. If Bitcoin becomes the medium of international exchange, nations will become increasingly irrelevant in the coming decades. Eventually it will be all about the sphere of influence of the largest multinationals, with many smaller client corporations operating in that space.

If I am paying income income tax to Google instead of Uncle Sam in 40-50 years, I will not be surprised.

This already happened at a more national scale in the late 1800's, ever heard of standard oil? The people finally woke up and voted to tame the largest corporations back down in influence. As long as governments provide the people at least a pretense of a democracy then it is possible to bring the corprations in check.

Whether people will wake up in reality is debatable, the red team blue team pretense has fooled many for a long time....

Now some Very Bad News for the Bulls:

It is still to be confirmed, but apparently 92,000 btc has been 'stolen' from sheep marketplace ( SilkRoad replacement).
Besides the larger bad press to come, many might be tempted to sell before the thief does or in anticipation of negative repercussion that black market still thrive in bitcoinland and the biggest bitcoin heist hits major press ( 15th largest loot in the world at current btc rate)

Will this be the bad news that ends this current growth/bubble trend?

This is different. Before, companies operated within the bounds of nations and were at the whims of those countries.

Now, multinationals can just threaten to pack up and leave if they are legislated against. For really big companies, that could devastate a country's economy.

These companies might end up either propping up friendly puppet states, or simply abolishing them and raising their own police forces and militaries,  laying their own roads, etc.

This future isn't a foregone conclusion but the trends do point clearly clearly in that direction.

I sorta want to write a novel about it...

Maybe we will see a brave new world of corporations taking over nations now that they have a financial vehicle with which to do it.

I know these comparisons are tongue-in-cheek, but just for those who are confused as far as I can figure you couldn't buy a country for its GDP.  I mean, even if you COULD buy a country... you couldn't buy it for its GDP.   It wouldn't cost that little.  That would be like buying a company for its earnings.  But as we all know stocks trade for a PE multiple.  Makes sense because you are buying ALL future earnings output, not just one year.  So I think a PE of 10 would be ok esp. for these underperforming countries...

So Burma could go for 120million... that's way too... well... hmm...

4.5% of all bitcoins ever to exist are acquired by a single scammer and prices are 93% of the ATH.
That's not priced in.

What a load of nonsense, priced into what? The price in your head? The effects are when it's cashed out and the ramifications to the market as 96,000 coins sold either in bulk, or bit by bit, its going to be noticed.
