Topic: People becoming aware of BTC - page 2. (Read 2365 times)
i don't interact much with the mainstream, and i was just thinking last night how it would be weird to mingle with some "normals" and have a bitcoin conversation and everyone just know what it is.
Hmm interesting, the news is spreading!
So I was in the CBD of a major city today, and walking along in the commercial district, I happened to overhear two "typical" businessmen type discussing BTC.
The conversation went
"it records every transaction and every body can see them"
"Yeah???"
"but no one really know who owns them...."
etc etc
I got the sense that the two financial types investor types, were trying to grapple with something that they couldn't quite grok.
A sort of whats happening?, but no gov backs it...., you can't just make up money, I don't get it?, what does this mean for me?...it worth what $10 Billion? combination of "feel" was going on
It seems financial types who play in the gov fiat are becomeing dimly aware of the straw house built on sand they occupy.
I like to occasionally mention BTC in a conversation
I was paying by visa (I felt dirty/heretical....come on emu save me)
I mention "one day I will pay you with bitcoin....have you heard of it?"
She replied "yes...!"
