Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's
computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be
reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

So I'm unable to watch the video right now, I'll get that confession out there.
Is Alex Jones supportive of Bitcoin? Or is he just announcing he'll accept it as payment?
Those are two different distinctions - Anyone who's in the business of making money should be accepting Bitcoin. It's so easy to accept payment and store it or convert as you deem necessary. If he's actually becoming a supporter of Bitcoin I'd be very interested to hear his comments and his take on it all.

if i remember correctly (read this yesterday), he has a coinbase account and is accepting BTC, but it's turning into fiat/cash right away. so you can send him money via bitcoin, but it turns up in cash. make of it what you will. |

I like to hear a lot of what he says. I think the guy could get his point across better if he was a little less abrasive. His documentary the Obama Deception was quite an eye opener.
The guy basically single-handedly puts the Bilderberger crew on front street.

I think it's good news, because the viewers of his show will hear of bitcoin from a positive perspective. I think soon other (competitor) shows will follow.

I wonder if the store will actually accept BTC or is he saying that he is now just accepting fiat from bitpay/coinbase.

Lots of people did. The "X-Files" spinoff "The Lone Gunmen" did an episode about it in early 2001. The 1996 Gena Davis movie "The Long Kiss Goodnight" was about a similar type conspiracy. The 1994 Tom Clancy book "Debt of Honor" is credited as originating the idea. |

Actually, he says that he's gonna accept Bitcoin quite often, but still hasn't yet. He did sound a bit more serious today though.
He is not a Bitcoin supporter btw, he is skeptical of it, and the possibility that it is run by the establishment.
