No, it was not explained. Unless what you say is that you can exchange your customer money to other currencies without being a licensed and regulated currency exchange?

1) the law says otherwise,
Really? Where? Where does the law say that you can repay a 1000 dollar debt with a 10 dollar bill?

Of course! The replacement cows are subjective as to the CURRENT cow/$ rate, not subjective to the THEN cow/$ when debt was made. If you can't see the difference, nobody can help you because you just don't want to see it.

Legal tender laws in the US = private debt can always be settled in USD.
Of course, they CAN! However, their debt is denominated in bitcoins, not in dollars! I gave them bitcoins, not dollars! They MUST settle this debt AT CURRENT bitcoin/$ rate, not at the rate that was months ago!Unfortunately no, you're wrong, and there is a good reason why you're wrong.
1) the law says otherwise, they can always pay you back in USD. It's public tender for ALL debts, public and private.
2) If you paid in cows and the cows died, they obviously couldn't pay you back with the same cows, and any replacement cows would be subjective as to if they were exactly equivalent in all their 'cowness'. So instead they have to pay you back in what the cows were worth at the time of the transaction in USD. Since no one could have known at the time of the transaction the value of a cow today, you can't ask for the value of the cow today, only of the value of the cow then, since that is when the value was known by all parties.
Sorry you can't be ballin' with your BTC at today's prices but that's how the cookie crumbles. If you wanted to be safe from dramatic exchange rate flux, you should have paid directly in USD. Being that USD to USD is worth the same today as it was months ago.
Better luck next time.

OK, let me summarize: I open a business in a country that is printing money like crazy, force my customers to pay in BTC as the only payment method and fail to deliver. Great.
Thanks for your support, mezzomix. I'm also astonished by the sheer stupidity of so many people on the these forums. There isn't much I can do! Sheep deserve their destiny. January 18, 2013, 02:27:13 AM

Hello everybody,
I've developed a low power high performance mining rig. You get 100GH/s with only 50W of power. The shipment will start on Feb 4. 2013. Full refund in ARS guaranteed if I fail to deliver within the next 3 months. As my business is in argentina the price is 5000 ARS. At the moment I will only accept payments in BTC at the spot price. Pre-orders are welcome. First in the queue - first served!

BFL's stance:
BFL' stance is different from MY stance. I'm right. They are wrong.+1
You should tell them to release their ASICs right now. They'll have to comply in order to none wrong.

Kirk to Enterprise. What's the current conversion rate for Federation Credits to German Mark?
Hogan: We've received a transmission from the future from someone named Kirk about some internet douche being, well a douche. He asks us what we would do.
Schultz: What do you mean, from the future and what's an internet? Hells Bells on a ice cream stick, did you say douche??? Kommandant Klink will NOT be happy! I know nuuuuuuuuthinzs!
