credit card is far from secure.

blablabla

credit card is far from secure.

Everyone I know or have their credit card cloned or knows someone that had their credit card cloned. And when it happens is a pain in the ass to undo all the damage done.


And I don't know how things are in Lambchop's country, but here national transfers are not instant(they have some deadline to do it) and when not between same banks they charge a fee bigger than BTC transaction fees

Since CC transactions are approximately x100,000,000 more common than BTC transactions, I'm certain you know people who had trouble with CC.  I know some folks who lost a bit of BTC tho.  Remember Mt.Gox?
NotLambchop's current country is US, not that it matters:  We are discussing INTERNAL transfers, not bank-to-bank transfers.  Intra-bank transfers are always free.

@hdbuck:  You have a tragically short attention span, so I'll remind you what you're trying to respond to.  This time, look for the red, boldface text:

i still dont get it why paypall, WU, credit card et al refuse to implement bitcoin all they need to buy is just few coin (maybe less than 100btc, because they will just use it internally) and use it as vehicle to move the fund securely.  

[Chef Ramsay]

Imo, there's no creation of demand to want to pay w/ BTC here or any other place unless there's a discount to get newer people to go through the steps to acquire it and learn how to use it. We all know it's demand that drives this market forward and up. Similarly, this is why most of the household shoppers use their CVS card at CVS and their Walgreen card at Walgreen: to get better prices and save money. Pointless otherwise.

^Your mind has finally snapped?  What is that nonsense that you just did?  Some sort of interwebs temper tantrum?
On a more somber and self-critical note, wtf was I hoping for, trying to teach you to think?  Shoulda started with a cabbage, woulda had better luck

nonsensical tantrum for losing argument

The poor "unbanked" of the third world don't have spare money, and that's why they live in shanty towns and mud huts. If there ever is a time that they have any, they want to hold it and keep it safe, not convert it to some public key somewhere in the cloud. And where do they store the private key on the PC or smart phone that they don't own?

Oh, but they can print a paper wallet. Good luck telling a poor person with little to no education that he or she can give their money to a machine somewhere, pay a fee, and get a piece of paper in return, after presenting their photo ID (which they probably don't have) and other personal info. They'd probably just look at you with a blank look on their face, walk away, and tell their friends later about the crazy white guy who tried to swindle their money away.

But never fear, Microsoft has accepted dollars for bitcoins with bitpay! Bitcoin is saved!

While I want the price to rise just as much as anyone, this does not change the fact that there are no technical indicators that suggest the price will rally before mid-2015

As now we have stagnation in price after some rise. The question is why we are not at the moon already? I know why becouse we need to wait for fiat comimg to exchanges:) it will took few days for everyane to book their money on stamp etc. Remeber paypal pik it was few days after news and now we have better more bullish news
