Amagi Metals to stop accepting dollars, only crypto!  That's friggin' bullish as hell! Cheesy

https://www.amagimetals.com/info/no-dollars-after-2016/

holy crap.  that is amazing!

I'm not sure I understand it. Don't people buy PMs primarily because they want to trade away a currency they perceive as being a poor store of value for the commodity with a proven record? If they believe bitcoin also has these properties, are they not just cutting themselves out of the equation, or are they planning on capitalizing on the fees they will inevitably charge to convert dollars to bitcoins before a user can make a purchase?

I'm all for the "Dollars not accepted here" movement, but not really from the people selling bitcoins and PMs.... That's where we want to dump our dollars.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/amagi-metals-best-prices-of-gold-silver-for-bitcoins-130831

I have used them before.  Excellent service.



thanks.

wow, a year and 9mo of Bitcoin acceptance experience.  they do understand Bitcoin then.  and it seems quite well.  it also must be treating them extremely well to make such a drastic switch away from USD and indirectly away from gold.  

if that's not a statement, i don't know what is.

edit:  btw, i love that logo

Bitcoin now accounts for over 40% of the company’s customer payments.

wow.



this needs to spread!

EDIT: haha, just read about the ceos (Stephen Macaskill) bet with Schiff:

https://www.amagimetals.com/info/ceo-of-amagi-metals-makes-a-bet-with-peter-schiff/

Quote
Amagi’s CEO, Stephen Macaskill, approached Peter Schiff during the Q&A segment of the event and asked him to join in on a bet. Macaskill believes that Bitcoin will outpace gold in the next five years, in relation to how much gold Bitcoin can buy (ie: today 1 BTC buys about a 1/2 ozt. of gold…in 5 years it will buy much more). Schiff agreed to the bet that will cost the loser 1 Bitcoin*, assuring our CEO that the price of Bitcoin will eventually plummet. In the background a familiar voice called out to Schiff saying, “You might be making a risky bet Peter.” That voice was The Dollar Vigilante, himself, Jeff Berwick who continually speaks of the bright future of Bitcoin.

was probably posted here, but I skip stuff, sorry for repeat

Dear Shorts,

it's only going to get worse when that little green line turns UP.

Sincerely,

cypherdoc



calculated at current price, that "little green line" is still 5 times higher than the red one.

Bitcoin UP, everything else DOWN.

Wrong: https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/btce/ltcbtc  and https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/btce/ltcusd   Grin Grin Grin

Cypher you know better than to spread misinformation. Come on man.  Roll Eyes

GO smoothie GO!!!

Looks like you quoted it for you to preview before posting it. Thanks for clarifying what "everything" is and isn't. How can one assume it doesn't include Alts when you appear to discuss them on a daily basis in this very thread?  Roll Eyes


and as for "everything", i'd bet 10 USD that i used the term for just those assets as i defined them back when you were subbed to my letter.  there's no inconsistency.  i'll try to be clearer next time.

first off, you know you added that last line after you originally posted it.  when i read it, that line wasn't there.  when i clicked to quote you, you must've just added it, and i posted my response w/o seeing your added line with it's implied annoyance.  very simple explanation.  otherwise, i would've addressed that annoyance straight off as opposed to later on down the thread.

So let's not address what I just posted. Okay moving on... Roll Eyes

ok, you're serious. (btw, you added that last sentence after i responded  Roll Eyes)

let me define what i think of as "everything" --> stocks, bonds, oil, gold, silver, soft commodities, and some fiat currencies.

i DON"T include Litecoin or any of the alts unless i specify them.

Ok so it is "everything". Gotcha.  Wink

BTC is a safer bet than gold imo

Not safer. It has a higher risk of going to zero. Much more +EV though.

Would you rather take 30 of these:

http://www.usacoinbook.com/us-coins/gold-bar-1-kilo.jpg

Or 2700BTC?

If you cant take anything in between?

Wow 2700 BTC will comfortably put you in the Validimir club. I'd take that any day of the week Wink

how'd you know all those bars were filled with tungsten?  oh, you didn't?

Of course I didn't. I just assumed they were gold for this thought experiment.

How many of "those" you own?
