After reading several articles and opinion pieces in the Straits and other media in Singapore, I thought it was time to help set the record straight on Bitcoin. These are some common questions I hear from people when discussing Bitcoin in Singapore.

Decent Q and A for the newcomer who might be interested. I hate the bitcoin is for crime argument, so I found this satisfying:

"90% of US$100 bills have cocaine on them, and HSBC has paid US$1.9 Billion in penalties for assisting in money laundering. The total market cap for Bitcoin is only US$1.3 billion."
