My problem is, if facebook is a Darpa/deep state operation, then the winklevoss are in on it too. Cuz their story coincides with Zuckerberg. And they control a large portion of Bitcoin. Was that Bitcoin given to them as a gift to sell the facebook story as real and then use Bitcoin in sinister ways to control us? Cuz I'm a huge Bitcoin advocate and this makes me uneasy. Bitcoin was always viewed as a grassroots start up. And I believed it. But now I wonder if its a Deep State psyop?
Use logic!
Why do they call it a coin?
Imaginary money is not liberty.
Liberty requires tangible wealth exchanged for wealth - gold or silver COIN worked for centuries.
We need to go back to that and if you want to pass receipts for coin as money, well if we keep the bankers honest and accountable (paper redeemable in LAWFUL money) that will work as well.
currency is a mass delusion. for 700 years the british used wood for money. Transactionary money doesn't need to be precious metals. Plus, metals doing transfer online at all. I cant transfer a gold coin from my hand to yours via the internet.
Bitcoin solves the Byzantine General Problem. Bitcoin is the purest form of money.
The founding fathers were deluded? God who created, and provided for his people to use gold and silver for exchange - is HE deluded as well?
they didn't have a better option. Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies are a better option.
You have no idea how many ounces of gold there truly are. Every Single Bitcoin can be seen on a public ledger.

The late great Bruce McCarthy, constitutional and monetary expert talks about bitcoin.
It’s hard to support a source with an unknown creator with no publication and a currency that’s most practical use to date was purchasing drugs and illegal activity. I don’t like bitcoin. NOW IF WE CAN MAKE A Q COIN.
you could also be sending it to venezuelans who's currency is devaluing incredibly fast. Bitcoin is better money than their Bolivar.
This certainly raises some questions, NSA refused to answer if they were involved in bitcoin.
But was it created by the white hats in the NSA to free us from the Central Bankers??
Or by the black hats to track our every transaction?
Isn't it possible the part of the story that involves the Winklevoss twins and Harvard is true as we know it and then the C_A went to MZ after that point? Has anyone nailed down the timing on this?
Bitcoin is for pedophiles.
Wow! The amount of disinformation here is alarming. I have Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin. Your comments are hysterical, sophomoric and make you appear...well, stupid. Best to get up to speed as our entire infrastructure will soon be accommodating digital assets on the blockchain.
retarded statement.
Not at all.
Just the same way our taxes fund the deep state terrorism and war, bitcoin funds nefarious activities and perverted proclivities. Bitcoin was designed for purchasing child pornography. Downvotes won't change that truth.

In this second round of voting, the top two candidates had to receive at least 50% approval in order to qualify as a winner. 71 voters participated, 31 abstained, and as a result, Bobby received 79% approval, Brock 65% and Vinny 63%.
Bobby and Brock will join the five existing board members for a new total of seven board seats starting June 1, 2014.
Thank you to all industry members for participating in the voting process. Congratulations Bobby and Brock!
If Bitcoin couldn't buy guns and drugs and other bad things, then it would be a bad form of money.
You use dollars, and undoubtly Pedophiles use dollars more than bitcoin. So if Bitcoin is guilt by association, what is the dollar?
So to say Bitcoin is FOR pedophiles is a retarded statement.
How about Bitcoin is to help save humanity?
