A recent study has identified 3,000 types of bacteria on dollar bills from a Manhattan bank.

I believe it, I cook on occasion for a local catering company. We did wood fire baked pizza for a major music festival and the cashiers all had blackened hands by the end of the night.

There was a period of time when I was responsible for counting a busy retail chain's money and keeping track of the store safe/bank deposits... I was constantly sick.
Money is rather dirty.

Although, so are keyboards.

I am actually not too paranoid about germs, but there are some people that are seriously obsessed.  It might be a feature that never crossed my mind.  Wink  Just one more reason to do away with cash.

Ah, BitChick, but cash is even better then BTC for buying gold...

All of the online gold sellers have to ship the gold to you, ruh roh, there's a trail.  If I go to either of my LCS (local coins shops), I pay cash, no invoice...

Then there's people like me who used to roll up a 20 and stick one end into my nostril to snort coke.  I'm sure the inside of my nose is somewhat sanitary, lol.

Just about the only effective way to stop the flow of fiat into Bitcoin would be to outlaw BTC in your country, and then completely ban and seize all paper currency. Move everything to plastic; traceable. Ultra-draconian.

No cash - that would be the only way to stop anonymous Bitcoin crypto purchasing. Won't happen, can't happen, there's not nearly enough time to make such a monumental change anyway. Therefore the game is over - fiat loses.

I hope they will be able to pay you, since FGU recently lost their State-funded subsidies and accreditation.
Do you think you can operate an anti-Gov't school without the consent of the State?

Some clever miner has already added viral signatures to their "coinbase-sig". When your 5 1/4" floppy drive stops working on the 30th of each month now you know why!

Many Bitcoins have also passed though Silk Road and contain trace amounts of cocaine.  Tongue

Bitcoin is great to strip clubs

See this for more info:
http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/15iq2r/strip_club_employees_how_dirty_in_terms_of/c7mvtyn
"I worked in strip clubs (cocktail server, bartender, waitress) for +/- 15 years, and I would claim to have "seen it all".

The clubs that I have worked in have been quite diligent with the cleaning process. Mirrors were cleaned all the time, the bar was cleaned after-hours by a cleaning crew (secondary to us servers doing a "sweep" after the "ugly lights" come on) and the bathrooms are always cleaned throughout the evenings and of course, after hours.

That being said, the couches in the private areas are scary. As staff, we never sat on them. Customers are known to be messy and yes, there are likely to be bodily fluids being exchanged or "wiped" on the couches. Many men would go into the bathroom prior to getting a lap dance and put on a condom inside of their pants so that if they B'd an L, it would be less messy for cleanup. That certainly isn't to say that we didn't find our share of discarded condoms on the floor near the couches after hours. Full contact is actually illegal here, but it was never a surprise to see a girl, naked, grinding away on a customer's lap.

The first club that I worked in had roughly 10 girls that were brought to work from a different country. They would get up onto the counters and urinate into the sinks. We never knew why. Obviously, that was moreso in the staff/dancer bathrooms, not the ones intended for public. Regardless, it was disgusting to think that we staff were to wash our hands there and then handle drinks.

Don't put your money where your mouth is. Especially in strip clubs. We washed our hands often and had sanitizing liquid at our bar and stations to cleanse our hands that had touched money that had come into contact with vaginas or mouths. I was always shocked at how many customers were willing to put money into their mouth and lay back on the stage to have it snatched off by a dancer's labia while she was doing the splits.

The tops of the toilet tanks often have powdery residue on them. Obviously from dancers/patrons (male or female) doing lines of coke. Some bar managers used to spray the toilet tops with Pam or wipe them with oil... T'was good for a laugh.

Dancers would often spray down the poles before they would go on stage for their shows. It increases their grip, keeps their hands clean from when Mercedes or Destinee was just on stage with the pole riding suggestively up and down their asscrack, and it also serves to get men's attention before she starts her show.

The clubs truly are a crime scene specialist's dream. Body fluids of every type available at every turn. I never understood why the clubs were carpeted and the couches were upholstered in porous materials.

Oh, and the black lights are installed for aesthetics. They hide stretch marks and cellulite. It's just a side-bonus that they also seem to bring out the semen stains in pants and tshirts.
TL;DR Strip clubs are filthy."

Not if the smartphone belongs to a germophobe who cleans it constantly! Much easier than cleaning all your money Wink

Come on, bacterium isn't bad. Those people who wears white gloves because their scared to have bacterium have serious problems. We actually need bacterium because our immunity is more resistant from diseases. If we would avoid bacterium so much our immunity would get so weak that we would get sick much more often. If talking about health i wouldn't see that as a positive thing...

You are going to process your bitcoins on your own device and ONLY your own device.

If you let any other device sign your tx, you are giving out your private key which compromises your wallet.
