Not promoting ETH, just answering why people may want to get paid in ETH

If you're answering questions without being asked, that's called promotion.

Please consider reading before typing. It's not that hard

Technically right. But suppose i got paid today.. what can i spend my ETH on?? Bitcoin?

No, you can do what Elmer does: Sell it in the street for filthy fiat & make money. And convince your landlord to take ETH instead of government scrip.
Mass acceptance doesn't happen all by itself, we need to make it happen. Why would stores start accepting ETH if no one is willing to spend it?

You're never too old to think young.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

I see that yesterday's mini-beartrap has already snapped shut and we're back over $540.

Congrats to those who bought at $520 or less.

How's that value doing?

If it wasn't value doing you won't be writing bs in bitcoin thread promoting eth bs.

Not promoting ETH, just answering why people may want to get paid in ETH, and clearing up the mechanics of mass adoption.
I understand you feeling bitter about ETH outperforming bitcoin, but that's what happens to a disruptive technology when it fails to evolve for 7 years. It stops disrupting and becomes lame, like PalmPilots

Why not try improving bitcoin, instead of just being surly?

It's also not yet near any kind of store of wealth.. and supply is not fixed.. so it's likely to be a poor store of wealth.

If people use it as a store of wealth, it's a store of wealth. Also a great investment vehicle, USD price went up by ~1,000% (one thousand percent) in 2016 alone. Pretty good compared to BTC, no?

Fixed supply is neither here nor there, that's BTCeanie thinking, totally early 90s. BTCeanies supply is limited, as is BTCBTCQ coins, as is 100s of other dead coins. How's that value doing?

I don't understand why someone would use BitWage to get ethereums.

For the same reason you use BitWage -- because they hate filthy fiat and believe in ETH.
Because if they get paid in Ether, store their wealth in Ether, and DAO companies accept Ether as a form of payment, that's a closed-loop economy right there

@Elwar: You use BitWage, don't you?

Yep. I don't understand why someone would use BitWage to get ethereums. It's not a currency, it's a single use coin (used for Ethereum apps).

I use BitWage because bitcoin is my main currency which I can use for spending.

yeah right.. eth cant scale either.. it has no cap on the amount of coins created.. its another pump and dump . .. they are pumping bitcoin to get people to stop buying pms .. they pulled out all the stops in attempt to stop the pms from rising ...

Wait, people actually *BUY* pms?

Why would anybody do that?!

it is money and not currency .

or maybe the manipulators are pretending we are halving pumping . when the next president is in wh in six months i think obama manipulators should be weeded out . replace them. thats going to be one of the first things i will be thinking about .

You will already a be a millionaire in a few years just with a few bitcoins ... I have no idea what you are worried about!

well.. its been two years. i think been that long . i do have a stash of bitcoins in cold storage .. i'm not as optimistic as you guys . they could have fixed the scaling thing and yet, after a year, they still haven't .

The human was vaccinated and he also had bitcoin medicine! ... But the bear even if he could buy medicine, it wasn't adjusted well enough to inflation so he can afford it!

Bear told you "It's OK brah, you can just get vaccinated"?
Did Bear also tell you that Bear never felt like this for anyone before? Roll Eyes

Have fun being anally preggers & raising a litter of halfbreed monstrosities. Who also have herpes.
