I did, but I was looking at the end of the string of emoticons, not the beginning.

Considering the fact that bitcoin is now proven to be unstable as a currency and that the investment for computing ability for bitcoin costs more than a year of panning for gold in the mountains with more than just the basics. Why does anyone show interest in them? Is it that fools will follow the shiny new pretty. PT was very accurate in his statement, only these days it is about every second, not minute. This stuff reeks of being a Con.

I have to agree that the Homosexual item it OTT unless, the equal value is given to straight folks on head lines (which I have never seen).

Who cares about his sexual preference, or his race?

If the guy is silly enough to take bitcoins, more power to him.  Hope it works out for him.

I give up.

You think he's "parked" there? 

It doesn't appear to be moving and I doubt it is a holographic image, so yes he is parked there.

Again a gun store accepting bitcoin is news worthy. The rest falls into the TMI category, which is not only not news worthy it is just unacceptable.

I reject your premise, what are you basing it on? The bankruptcy if a single exchange? Bitcoin has many, many exchanges.

Do you suppose FRNs (federal reserve notes) are a stable currency?

Is bitcoin not worth more (compared to USD) than it was 4 or 5 months ago?

Note: I own zero BTC. I have no skin in this.

If the federal reserve note destabilizes, we have bigger problems then bitcoins will be able to withstand.

Bitcoins perceived value has seen some pretty wild swings.

I'm not convinced that US Treasury will continue to tolerate BTC as a competitive currency.

1. Bitcoins perceived value has seen some pretty wild swings.

2. I'm not convinced that US Treasury will continue to tolerate BTC as a competitive currency.

1. True. But he said the currency is "unstable". That's not true, but it is a rapidly growing market. I expect the price will begin to settle (or grow more slowly) in the next year.
2. What can they do about it? Nothing. It's peer-to-peer. They can take out domestic exchanges, but what about non-domestic ones that work in USD? What about local bitcoin exchange social websites (that hook up bitcoin buyers and sellers locally)? I don't think there's anything they can do to shut it down anymore than the movie studios can shut down pirates bay or torrent networks.

Senate bill 868 just introduced last week in Michigan for people like him.

A change in value of greater than 300 dollars in a two month time period would have any sane person buying a huge amount of puts on bitcoin. Considering which server reserve went down and the amount of money that was lost in that crash and the loss of value that has happened in the currency over the last month. Yes it is unstable. The electronic currency market is a new version of the dot com bubble from what I can see.

If a countries currency went into this kind of decline it would be quickly labeled as junk and the rates on it would be outrageous. Than again buying gold right now is a fools game as well and has been for a number of years. One area that is interesting is a trend by some groups to accept silver coin (sterling mint) for purchases. The interesting part in that is that silver has NOT been following historical norms in value compared to gold and other metals, nor has it been following a reasonable supply and demand curve considering the massive increase in uses of silver not only in electronic (including super conductors) but also the huge increase in medical uses of the metal. Though i would not touch silver certificates with a barge pole considering the issues with bad paper being issued by more than one major trading group.

So, yes considering the huge flux and the continued down turn and the loss of investment on ROI when mining bitcoin and other electronic currency and the huge questions of fraud in certain parts due to issues with some of the server groups, that to me classifies as unstable.
