Interesting doesn't mean real world use either. Sorry but MAZA has the potential to be just as big as Bitcoin because let's face it, a lot of investors are interested in the crypto train but still see Bitcoin as a shady op run by drug dealers and hackers. Who do you think the average ma and pa investor would trust their money with, a quote, unquote "hacker" or an Indian tribe? Of course we know the chiefs really aren't in charge of distributing Maza nor are the creators of Bitcoin hackers but perception is reality. Giving it legal tender status makes it a huge commodity for wealth storage, it doesn't matter if most Lakota members never actually use the currency, it is like what the creator of the Liberty Dollar set out to do, to create a COMPETING currency within the US borders. But since the tribe has sovereign status, the US government can't touch it and can't throw the creators in prison for it.
Not to throw it back in your face but the Bitcoin community kind of set themselves a year or two back by putting crooks like Shrem and Karpeles on a pedestal and feeding Silk Road into a huge entity, and they are doing it again with all the excitement over Darkcoin which sounds even more insidious to the average person.
That will give me 1% of what I need to reach my goal to emigrate and be with my family. I am praying for a miracle. Should I sell some cheapo coins and bung it all int MAZA for few days would that be wise?
