I just thought of this question after I posted my last post.

Are you looking to create a new market of goods and services or facilitate a Bitcoin economy?

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

The current exchange rate is 3 packs of smokes, a bag of toilet wine, and a toothbrush shiv per BTC.

Sure miss the days when you could mine them just using your hands.
