Nice of you to pop by with your 9 day old meme ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) , but shouldn't you be making yourself busy counting pills and castigating people?![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I haven't seen before here and if you don't like... MEH. Are you trolling me or what? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) No worries dude, I've never seen it till now. V8 posts every latest meme like a month before us regular mortals ever even know about it. .... A device? You mean an electronic device like a cellphone or computer?
Yeah, you know, those thingys you use to store, transfer, spend, and receive bitcoin.... ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) (and even create it it out of thin air mine it like 10 years ago, ah yes, those were the days....)

.... A device? You mean an electronic device like a cellphone or computer?
Yeah you know, those things you use to store, transfer, spend, and receive bitcoin.... ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Don't be suggesting that Jimbo is too much of a boomer merely because he is giving practical advice, because none of us should be dissing on cash or dissing on the idea of interacting with people face to face. There is a lot of value in keeping our interactions and our transactions plausibly deniable, which becomes a whole lot more difficult when you stick your bills into some kind of machine because you prefer them to be converted into electronic pieces that you can more easily handle. Yeah, I know that bitcoin does not have any kind of physical component either, and surely part of the challenge that we bitcoiners are going to continue to have is to figure out ways to preserve some of our privacy and preserve the traceability of our transactions. By the way, I think that it can be a good idea to keep a number of bills on you, even if you don't seem to like cash, but sometimes it can be nice to interact with people using cash, even if we are becoming traceable in so many other ways, with our having a digital tracking device in our pocket (aka smart phone) but we also can have some plausible deniability regarding some of our cash transactions... at least so far we have some of those kinds of freedoms if we are not so willing to give them up. TLDR:Cash is not the enemy. Face to face interactions are not a bad thing. I have met a lot of nice people face to face.. and even caused me ting-a-lings, back in the good ole days.

So a couple of buddies of mine just paid me some physical fiat cash for some things. Then I just realized there's no way to scan it on a device and deposit. Phuk! So WTF do I do with cash? You mean I actually gotta go out and physically hand it to someone to spend or deposit it?? Well that sux....
Probably tongue-in-cheek, but if not...physical cash has one interesting property: it is difficult to attach a negative interest rate to it. A former Fed member suggested a move to negative rates recently. Will it happen? So far, 2year and 5year notes suggest a negative answer, but it could change fast. During all this excitement about them sending stimulus checks directly to taxpayers, a thought occurred to me. They could just as easily remove some $ from the same accounts via some Great Restoration Emergency Act Transfer aka GREAT, or any other potential law coming down the pike in 2020-2022. Not possible here? I doubt that impossibility since some other countries already did this. Also, remember the gold story during Great Depression I?

Seems bitcoin involves some of that kind of support for privacy, liberty and ting-a-lingies.

Yep. Them's the thingies. Glad you don't use 'em for storage however. Almost as insecure as the cloud. Had my ASICs hooked up to one of them contraptions back in the day. Had enough sense to mine straight into a paper wallet though. Probably tongue-in-cheek... I guess I need to tune up my sarcasm meter. I almost thought he was serious.

You no longer deposit money with the bank dear chattle, oh no. Instead you invest in the bank. If the bank turns a profit, you get one ten thousandth of the profit. To share of course. And if it loses money, you get the entire bill. You will not notice the difference, banks are always profitable, always, yes yes.

a couple of notes: 1. Some ^^girls think that their titties are magical...and maybe they are. 2. Both boys and girls fail simple geography question: https://twitter.com/i/status/1254106410549460994I wonder: a. why this is not being taught in school? b. why people openly admit to being so ignorant without being ashamed at the slightest? facepalm...BTW, honestly, how many countries you can point correctly on that map, WO fellas? My guess would be >10, but less than 50, most likely. Correct?

You guys are falling down on the job. Is nobody on this forum going to explain why it's a problem to have all your transactions transparent? Would you want your bank to publish your net worth and all your transaction history on a website that everybody knows about and can easily just go look at how much money you have, who you paid, and who paid you, a website called something like "the blockchain"? That's what you get with bitcoin. Sure, you obey the law, so you might not have to worry about the IRS or Officer Friendly. But Your business competitors... the Russian hacker looking for someone to rip off... the thug with the proverbial five dollar wrench... It's all there, out in the open. Where your coins came from, who sent it to you, where the coins you sent went, how much btc you had last year and how much you have now... The five dollar wrench attack is very convenient.So a couple of buddies of mine just paid me some physical fiat cash for some things. Then I just realized there's no way to scan it on a device and deposit. Phuk! So WTF do I do with cash? You mean I actually gotta go out and physically hand it to someone to spend or deposit it?? Well that sux....
Probably tongue-in-cheek, but if not...physical cash has one interesting property: it is difficult to attach a negative interest rate to it.

Not possible here? I doubt that impossibility since some other countries already did this. Also, remember the gold story during Great Depression I? Been done in Cyprus and Argentina. Gov just took money from people's bank accounts.

A fresh and positive analysis. Bitcoin is trading in a bullish zone above the $7,450 and $7,400 support levels against the US Dollar. BTC might dip a few points, but it remains well bid for a rally to $8,000. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FU7tPV6m.png&t=665&c=AZPBcNZi87qI3Q) Bitcoin is showing a lot of positive signs above the $7,400 and $7,200 support levels. A clear break above the $7,650 resistance could open the doors for a fresh rally. There is a short term contracting triangle forming with resistance near $7,625 on the 4-hours chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken). The pair could correct a few points, but the bulls are likely to protect the $7,400 support Source: https://www.newsbtc.com/2020/04/26/bitcoin-btc-rally-isnt-over-yet/
