Bitcoin can't. And that's its strength. There's already plenty of regulated currencies around. Good luck with those. Buy your wheelbarrow quick before it costs more money to buy one than it can hold. Or just put a bitcoin aside.

Not quite what you were looking for, but just as interesting.

During the last 2 hours, it has only been 32 BTC bought and 135 BTC sold in euro.

During the last 30 minutes, it has only been 78 BTC bought and 96 BTC sold in dollars.

It's boring now so which channel can I watch paint dry?

It is a deliberate act.  Al he has to do is make a "Without the USA all puppies will die" message and he gets to see people say "Puppies will be fine without the USA" posts.

Don't take it too seriously.  Coinseeker certainly doesn't.

It is what it is a free alternative to fiat currency.  Once regulated, it would be worthless.  

I don't hate Americans, I'm just fed up with the attitude of superiority that Coinseeker shows and represents. He's so stereotypical of what people dislike about the US that it almost seems like a deliberate act. Ofcourse I don't want to see an entire country bombed because of a few people that annoy me. I don't really care about countries, we all live and breath on the same planet and nobody is superior or better than the other.

All Bitcoin has to do is drop it's "libertarian, destroy every government nonsense" and SUBMIT to regulations.  That's all.  And Bitcoin will be $300k per coin in no time.  What's it going to be?

I have an order for 400 Bitcoin sitting at 117.1 for weeks now.  Bloody bears are never around when you need them!

+1.

If you could stop trolling, that'd be great. M'kay?

Gold was seized and reclaimed by the federal authorities for many many years (i think from the 29 crisis until the sixties) and his possession has been forbidden several times during the history.

Fiat is going to hell (euros, dollars).




China is not looking good. Japan bonds look horrible. Europe is going really bad and USA aswell. We have global warming (or cooling) coming and several thousand million humans on the earth surface. Things are going to get ugly.

Where can one put his money? stamps? IMF sdr's (you need countries that go well together for that)?

Gold is really great as a store of value but bitcoin has something special: It is really great for international payments. Something that is the actual niche for the decaying fiat dollar. You cannot order (or well you can but it will be way harder and slower) 500 tons of grain from Argentina to China or whatever from country A to B with physical gold (yes you can i know but we are not in the medieval ages): Bitcoin is way better for that. It is also a good store of value.

It might depend how big is the crisis and the internet penetration. For urban areas, international or long distance payments or for countries with high usage of internet bitcoin will have its niche. If everything goes to hell (or things look really bad during some years) gold and silver will also be really good for local payments. People won't like to see fiat not even in a picture.

Adam, could you pretty please open the "Wall Observer - RippleXRP wall movement tracker - only Coinseeker allowed" thread?

The US dollar is king but there's a lot of countries that wish that it weren't. Of course, actually trying to do something about it will cause problems with the country which prints it like it's going out of fashion.

Certainly you're not incorrect in many aspects, the US is certainly going to attempt to go after Bitcoin seriously at some point. The question really is how soon and what the outcome actually will be. We could point to similar examples; prohibition, the war on drugs to look at possible futures but there's really no good way to tell and making naked assertions just betrays a strong naivety. After all, can you see Google in this picture?

The only people that need to transmit money anonymously, are criminals and tax evaders.  Within minutes?  You mean like 60 minutes.    I can transfer via Ripple in seconds for nothing and I won't have to worry about my accounts being seized because they accept regulation as a good thing, not tyranny.  Of course, some people just want nothing more than to go back to the crash of 2008, caused entirely by the deregulation of banks and the financial sector.   Brilliant! 

Can dollars be transmitted anonymously and within minutes over the internet like bitcoins can? I think Bitcoin is a huge thorn in the eyes of the US right now (since the price surge and increase in publics awareness of it), and they are figuring out ways to hit it hard as we speak.

Total ban of the Unted States. USA is becoming like Northern Korea soon. Isolated totalitarism/socialism.
But Bitcoin grows up.

Coinseeker, you are stupid nationalist & pseudo patriot.

Your reasoning is so superficial that it makes me LOL (seriously). Bitcoin was born 3 years ago. It's still a baby. Give it some time, and then we'll speak.

This is exactly how I see it as well.  I don't really care what happens to the dollar and the euro and whatever.  I'm sure they will all outlive all of us.  But Bitcoin is a "free" as in "free speech" alternative and even if it has to be used over TOR, its evolution is one of the great developments of our lifetimes.

BTW, if the US did decide to ban Bitcoin, they would start by arresting Gavin.  While he remains free to do presentations and code, Bitcoin is not threatened at all by the US.  The inconveniences we see are due to money-laundering laws.
