    When I see the first Arab owned party store with a sign that says "Trade Your BTC For US Money" I'm going to hit the floor with an uncontrollable laugh.

    This dude I know has everything under one roof. He'd be the first dude to do it. Guy is just a money maker. This guy cashes more checks than some credit unions. I'm not kidding.

    I think 3 people now work in Curacao
    Everyone now in Suburban Manilla
    and you just can't trust your wealth in a 3rd world rat hole in the middle of the Pacific
    Plus
    #1 Daughter still has a few years at UNC
    So you can't risk it in a country who sole exsistance is because the US state dept allows it

    If that was the case would pinnacle changing their live betting setup recently cause nitrogen to lose the feed.
    Pinny doesn't own nitrogen.

    Only problem with this idea is Nitrogen has embarrassingly low limits.

    So this is not an option for anyone who wants to move decent money around on games.

    You can deposit into Pinnacle using AsianConnect88 or PremiumTraders.
    They are betting agents you can deposit funds with through Bitcoins and then use it with Pinnacle.
    But if you're in the US then you might not be allowed, not sure, ask them if you can use a VPN etc. if it's allowed.
    Good luck.

    This is not true at all, there are many traders that invest in BItcoin, note the high volume traded daily. I myself am holding a lot of bitcoin and will see where it goes in the next year or so. Just bought some more Thursday at 448.

    Depends on the market but yes, definitely a hole in the theory.

    Do some research and read some financial articles from legit places. Most money experts say bitcoin is basically a Ponzi scheme and will crash eventually. I am no expert on the matter but the more I read about it everything about it seems sketchy.

    Legit financial articles, let me guess, written by economists, money experts with a lot to gain with the current economical situation and a lot to lose with decentralised currencies and contracts.
    Anyway, this is getting out of topic.

    Not really. I just like discussing it and finding out people's opinions. Apparently you are too sensitive to discuss it for some reason and get offended when someone talks negatively about it. Maybe you are Satoshi. And by the way, GO FUK YOURSELF. Have a nice day fuk wad.

    Yeah but all the positive articles about it are weirdos and conspiracy theorists who hate the government and think the U.S dollar will be nonexistent soon.

    Me neither. It's hard to have an intelligent conversation with idiots like yourself that just want to talk shit when they hear something they don't agree with.

    So the truth is somewhere in the middle. I don't bother reading what economist money experts write, but I take all the bitcoin enthusiast's articles with a grain of salt.

    Calling bitcoin a ponzi scheme and the USD safe is, how to best call it, unintelligent. I suggest you either read some bitcoin books, some ''anti-usd-wierdos'', like you call them , to get a better view of the whole picture, or simply add a grain of salt to whatever you are reading.
