Ummmm. I would dance for joy and tell my dad it wasn't a scam. If it were a scam the US would surely have sued or tried to destroy the network before then.

He will use the money to set up his own RESEARCH LAB and find the CURES for CANCER and AGING! He will release the CURES into the PUBLIC DOMAIN! (a la Jonas Salk) EVERYONE regardless of wealth will no longer need to SUFFER! CHILDHOOD CANCER will also be HISTORY! Thank you! - A Faithful Believer. P.S. If anyone is reading this then please pray with me!

Bernie Madoff was a scam and instead of suing him they made him Chairman of the NASDAQ.

I believe I will buy some bitcoins at that point since they're a proven store of worth.

I'd probably sell half of whatever I have by then for USD, and invest that somewhere (stocks? bonds? land?) The rest I'd keep, just in case the value goes up any more, and to spend in what I hope will be a vast Bitcoin economy Smiley

My back-of-napkin numbers suggest that BTC will need to hit at least 1,000,000 USD to make this viable. Cheesy

Quit my job and only do open source development.

Meh, that'd only be about 23 grand for me at this point.

I suppose I'd put it towards my student loans.
