I guess There will be a city fully support crypto currency industry in a not far future.

The definition of city of crypto :
I. Any decentralized crypto currency is legal tender and tax free, let the free market decide which crypto will be the mainstream  
II. Crypto companies have rights to keep customers profile secret  
III. Gov guarantee will not interfere crypto currency industry


Obviously , New york isn't suit for that title.
I have some candidates :

1. Tokyo , though mtgox is in Tokyo but it seems japan still is very tolerant to crypto .

2. Hong kong , HK gov think there's no need to regulate Bitcoin if it does not pose a threat to the financial stability of HK .

3. Singapore ,  Bitcoin transactions may be treated as a barter exchange if it is used as a payment method for real goods and services in Singapore/

4. Los angles , California gov  have signed a bill legalizing Bitcoin , but not sure about the future .

5. Copenhagen , the Denmark top tax authority declared that personal profits and losses from Bitcoin trading would not be taxed

6.  Toronto , Toronto has many Bitcoin ATMs and lots of merchant stores accept Bitcoin  ( williamj2543 )

7. Offshore tax free country  , offshore countries will always be the heaven of crypto

So ..any thoughts ?

Toronto, Canada anyone? We have a ton of stores, and we have lots of bitcoin atms. Vancouver may also be good, but Toronto is a bigger city.

I don't know about Singapore or Hong Kong. As Bitcoin grows it will increasingly pose a threat to fiat. I would expect the governments there to be less accommodating in the future.

Tokyo is interesting because they thrive in the technology sector. Bitcoin will bring a lot of new, lucrative business to the city.

hey can you start a thread about ATMS and btc

how they work

we got www.btcATM.biz and some others

so we're researching how to monetize the assets

if they got enough atm's there maybe we find a canuck company to join

btcATM.biz/com/net/org

those the top 4 terms for a tld for international biz

.ca is canada good for your country that's it
.us good usa
.co.uk UK
.eu europe
.tld for any country limited to that country

com/net/org/biz

those the big four for international biz

Difficult to say right now! Every single gov is monitoring the financial market. If they find anything suspicious related BTC, they will be definitely tracking the BTC transaction and get the suspect's profile from any related BTC company.

Their law makers disagree. Marihuana seems more likely to have it's center there once it's legalized.

It's tough to narrow down one location as the likely hub when all of these are great choices, so I'd say you're gonna have hot pockets in many of these metropolises and they'll keep expanding from there. I'd really like to see Africa become one of these as a whole considering there's so many there that need to be banked and lifted up.

It may be too early to answer this but it's safe to say that the cities that seriously roll out the carpet for BTC will have a jump start over the others... millions of new revenue.. not including benefits of upstart companies willing to sink capital into the local economy... forward thinking legislators will be early adapters and reap the benefits.

There will be none.

The decentralized nature of bitcoin will prevent any one place from being the center of bitcoin related transactions.

I'm surprised Silicon Valley or San Francisco weren't on your list. You should replace LA with SF.

Isn't LA still fighting technology with record companies, TV networks, and Hollywood?

there will be no center.

keep it decentralized guys where every town is bitcoin friendly, why are people so obsessed with making bitcoin concentration camps.. it truly bewilders me

seems most would rather sit in basements and then run to a concentration camp, rather than write a letter or mail to their local politician to become bitcoin friendly..
