His statement stands, they can only take paper BTC or BTC converted to fiat (or simply fiat)

True, but all that BTC won't do good if you're stuck in prison.

Lol what the hell does that have to do with anything? You could still give it to your children, open a brainwallet that uses a certain hash to generate a private key and just remember the password and repeat it every morning for prayers.

You are more than welcome to start a decentralized blockchain of exchanging bungholes in the shower if you want to.....

Because Bitcoin = giving banks "the finger".

They have been messing with society for way too long now. Bitcoin brings an alternative so we no longer need banks. Just like email presented an alternative so we no longer need snail mail for written communication. Huurray for technology!

True, but if you got it legally they would have to put you in jail first  Grin

If Bitcoin is to achieve even half it's promise, it cannot be viewed by the majority as an easy way to evade the law.  

I think I heard somewhere less than 1% of BTC transactions are in relation to illegal activity?  I don't know how accurate that number is or how in translates into reality.

Simply put, it cannot be taken away by the powers that be

Tell pirate/knight that.

I am a newbie so you would have to explain that to me, I meant it loosely, as in print money and or just cut your pension or bottom out your 401K.
