And Libya also wanted to sell oil for gold dinars, or what the hell was the name of the currency. Gadafi was killed in a snap.
Don't mess with the FED and their OPEC monopoly, because you'll get hurt...

but the really only way bring bitcoin to worldwide mainstream is to persuade (or to force) the OPEC to accept bitcoin instead of the US$ for the oil.


Hehehehe I like your ambition... but honestly the announcement from OPEC that they're switching to BTC will be waaayyy past the time when Bitcoin has already revolutionized global finance. All the benefits of a Bitcoin world will occur before organizations like OPEC touch it. They'll be among the last, and it would be silly for us to focus any energy at all on such a campaign.

I think you'd have more luck getting paypal to accept bitcoin than OPEC

What you basically say is, that the only mainstream currency is the USD, which, i think, is kinda wrong.
Bitcoin is more than just a currency though, it's also a payment system.

There's no way we can convince/force OPEC to accept bitcoins,
Saddam tried to sell his oil for EUR once and we all know what happened to him.

But you know what? We don't have to, all they need is a BitPay account.  Wink

Does anyone remember what Saddam announced just a few months before being invaded from the democratic USA?
They would have started to sell their oil in Euros.

(think about the power you have owning the currency that anyone wants only to buy oil)

Secondly, we don't need a super super billion dollar economy crashing in the 100M dollar economy of bitcoin, thank you.

Btw: bitcoin will begin to go mainstream in 50 days from now. I will bet my money on that.

Somebody send them an email, surely they'll decide to accept them.

The US would send drones to every house they could find running a bitcoin and kill everyone if any hint of OPEC accepting bitcoins reached their ears....

i just wanna say the said truth to all the really straight guys (1) out here wasting time by their, sorry, useless bitcoin mainstream efforts.

i mean

 - spreading good news
 - enabling (big) online/offline merchant to accept bitcoin
 - accept bitcoin as a merchant
 - use bitcoin in daily life as much as possible

is all sweet & easy. thank you!

but the really only way bring bitcoin to worldwide mainstream is to persuade (or to force) the OPEC to accept bitcoin instead of the US$ for the oil.

if that ever happens were in the 'mahatma gandhi *then we win* phase'
amazon, ebay, facebook etc.; break paypal; .. are all minor or just small steps on the road. OPEC is the goal.


do you have thoughts or ideas how to come so far or other useful comments?


(1) no shorttime interested bitcoin or us$ hoarders/traiders
