oh, but it is!
Next headline will read " NO ONE CARES, THERE IS NO STOPPING BTC, AHHHHHHHH BUY BUY BUY! "
or somthing to that effect...
This is what I was thinking. I could care less what a few bankers have to say about something that is going to ruin their fun.
Also this-
Thailand hasn't banned Bitcoin -- it's just said that there are no laws governing it, and so therefore it is illegal. Many bureaucratic countries operate on this principle.
Big fail on the part of Bitcoin co, ltd for getting themselves into this situation, and then messing up the communications at the end of it.
