Honestly Mic?
Firstly, there aren't many places that are famous around 150km from Antwerp.
Next, there aren't many places in Amsterdam that don't have water in sight.
Then, it looks like a transport hub - and I know Central Station pretty well, so I figured 'where would Mic be bored enough to look out of the window in Amsterdam that is a transport hub?'
So, it wasn't that hard, mate, I'm afraid.

"yes, I saw them and was shocked 39bilion dollars each" The deleted tweet from that page was talking about a total $184 Billions injected into the market.

I have read the articles about the new Coinstar ATMs that are gonna spread in US grocery stores but I guess I didn't get that part : https://www.ccn.com/how-coinstar-could-turn-62-million-dollars-worth-of-literal-trash-into-bitcoin/But people might be a lot more careful with their pocket change if there was some way it could be more valuable. Soon one way to make it more valuable will be to toss it into a Coinstar machine and convert it from the dust of a depreciating public currency into bitcoin, an appreciating, private, free market currency with a definite and fixed supply. So if I got this right, we'll be able to change cents into BTC dust ?

A few worthless coins in the pockets of hundreds of millions of people is a fucking fortune. And why wouldn't you throw loose change into a machine that makes the number on your iphone grow? It gives a nice dopaminurgic (now a word, Spellchecker!) kick, once you do it the first time you will keep doing it. And when hundreds of millions of people are doing it habitually, guess who benefits the most?

So if I got this right, we'll be able to change cents into BTC dust ? No, you misunderstood. The phrase "from the dust of a depreciating public currency" is referring to the pocket change. Pocket change is the "dust" of a depreciating public currency i.e. US dollars. We will convert that dust into Bitcoin ( an appreciating, private, free market currency with a definite and fixed supply)! It's probably not a good idea to convert your pocket change into Bitcoin dust since the transfer fees would be more than the amount however if you have something like this - brb Edit: apologies. This is actually my daughter's bag of change (wrangled from her mother and I originally) so I had to answer 20 questions before I was allowed to borrow it!  There is probably over $50 in this bag. As the denominations get smaller it becomes more of a pain to roll them and exchange them for bills. The Coinstar machine is great for that though the fee is upwards of 10%. Can't wait for the Bitcoin though! I have TUBS of pennies to exchange
