Don't worry anth0ny, you'll be a millionaire one day and deisek there will continue to be a wage slave. His kids are going to say: "you what? You thought bitcoin was a bubble? Is that why our family is poor?"
It may not be that fun though... Deisek, this might well be the last chance for you to buy btcs for less than $1000. You'll be kicking yourself... The problem is that I already can't buy or sell BTCs (even if I wanted to). All official reliable exchangers that were out there (I worked through one of them) suspended their operation until things clear up a little... A small stash offshore will be better than nothing, especially if things hit the fan in emerging markets. |

Cyprus has shown us all that there is no more such thing as a safe harbor ("offshore", lol), and Silk Road that there is no anonimity. You never know in advance where and when shit is going to hit the fan... |

Cyprus, you trusted the EU and got screwed over. Silk Road, DPR got busted you got screwed over by US Govt. With bitcoin, you trust no one. You are your own bank. There is zero reliance on third parties for transactions. If you buy via localbitcoins or in small amounts, you will almost certainly be completely anonymous. |

Yeah, and if you keep silence on forums like this one at that. Though you will still have to spend your bitcoins some day (thus relying on your counter-party), otherwise there is no purpose of buying them. And when you finally shell out, they will be right there to catch you with the goods, lol... |

Return home with gifts. Better still, apply for EU passport via Cyprus. |

The passport is so you don't get screwed by the Russian govt... As I got it from Wikipedia you need a European Union citizenship (which is supplementary to national citizenship, i.e. one of its member's) to apply for an EU passport... |

In your country do you have to get a letter of attorney to ask someone to explain something to a group of people? If so I'm afraid I can't provide you with such a letter, but maybe you can post your explanation privately to me and that would get around this crazy law?
Are you a group of people? Depends who you mean by "you". In other words, doesn't that question answer itself? I haven't seen anyone else here asking me to explain what you were asking (since this had been properly expanded on before, and not only by me, lol). How can you then ask on behalf of some group without first providing some "paper" authorizing you to do so?
Is that what I've done? If so, I guess you have your answer as to how I did it. Once again I wonder how you managed to tell us what was wrong with what I wrote before I showed up and wrote it, though. I don't think it is a proper way to ask for an explanation ("explain us")
Well, no, it's missing the word "to". Are you trying to teach me how to speak English? |

Well, no, it's missing the word "to". Are you trying to teach me how to speak English? Okay, I should have said "explain yourself" (note that yourself means that you refers to just one person, not a group as you claim to be, lol). I don't care about your English, though I do care about mine. So I don't mind you correcting me (when there is a reason indeed), but don't forget that this is not what this thread is for (think of other people reading all this shit and not about inflating your self-defeating ego only, lol)... |

I thought you were of the opinion that I need a "letter of attorney" or something before I'm allowed to think of other people reading all this shit. Or maybe you're the one who needs the "letter of attorney" to ask me to think of other people? Seriously though, if you want to delete the back and forth, that's fine with me. |

So you should have asked something like "explain the meaning to me", shouldn't you? The said also refers to anything where you used "us" instead of "me"... |
