Ah yes, I see the Bitcoin, bible thumping, delusions continue.  

"Silk Road, no.  We have a bunch of legitamate businesses."

"Oh really?  Which ones?"

"Umm...well...we have a bunch of VC money coming in."

 Grin

Bitcoin the currency commodity. Great for speculators and dope dealers.   Wink

Quoting the above as an example but everytime I see these comments, all I seem to read is 'I'm holding more fiat than Bitcoin at my exchange'. If you do not believe in Bitcoin as a whole, why are you here? Oh wait, speculation forum. It might as well be Trollbox...

You know what they say about assuming.  You can view my Ripple addy in the graph, whenever you're ready to take your foot out of your mouth.  I'll wait....

Ripple? Isn't that the scam site where people exchange their real bitcoins for IOUs or something? How do I value these?

Yeah it's funny how that guy refused to answer about his guess on ratio bitcoins being spen on services/goods of silkroad vs everywhere else. But maybe it's just coincidence and he went to bed  Roll Eyes

Another price increase, another DDOS and another price drop. Is someone so desperate to put the price down??

lucas.sev got in a funny-looking delorean in 2011 and showed up here.
Now, like a bewildered Marty McFly, he's looking around in disbelief.

You are a funny guy! Must be great having you at parties!

Dwarfing silkroad in sales volume in BTC? I take your word for it. What would be your guess of ratio bitcoins being SPENT on services/goods of silkroad vs everywhere else?

"What? You mean silk road is no longer a significant driver of bitcoin price?"
"What? Thousands of legitimate businesses accept bitcoin, altogether dwarfing silk road in sales volume?"
"What? An ever-increasing number of popular mainstream businesses, websites, and charities, accept bitcoin - like Wordpress, OKCupid, Mega, Gyft, Reddit, Foodler, etc.?"

That makes the .gif even more awesome  Grin


Is that a list of some obscure vendors who support them? Is any of them 10% as popular as silkroad?
Namecheap is an ICANN-accredited domain registrar and web hosting company, based in Los Angeles, California. They claim to have over 3 million domain names under management and more than 800000 customers.

Just out of interest, you don't agree that silkroad is the major force that will prevent bitcoins from falling into single digits if something terrible happens like mtgox and major exchanges closing (or some other crisis, exact nature is not the point of this question)? Do you think this namecheap thing if 10% as significant?
Not really. I think we're past the silk road phase at this point, you're overestimating how much effect it has versus other bitcoin businesses. I've seen us going from back in 2011 when I was able to keep up with pretty much *every* news article and *every* new business launch, to now, where even if all I did 24 hours a day was trying to keep up I wouldn't be able to. These are different times.

Do you know anyone who does use Silkroad? I am 99% sure that the majority of the people who use Bitcoin do not frequent Silkroad.
A friend was showing me that site, the prices are ridiculous

I love it when they say only Silkroad accepts BTC. Not to mention the over 18,000,000 that was just pledged by a newly formed venture capitalist firm specifically to fund Bitcoin startups.

Lol @ someone else who is stuck in 2011 and is utterly convinced that bitcoin is still "riding on silk road."

Keep on dreamin, pal. Someone like you shows up every once in a while; we'll try to be nice.
