I can't wait until news orgs have a little API service they query to dynamically render bitcoin values / exchange rates in their articles.

gently caress You And Diebold posted:How do bitcoin people expect to actually make money from it? Do they expect to buy cars or houses or rent with bitcoin? huh? you can buy bitcoin with dollars and use the bitcoin to buy illegal things anonymously, or you can sell illegal things anonymously for bitcoin and then sell the bitcoin for dollars and the illicit source of your money is concealed for those purposes it doesn't matter at all what the exchange rate is, for the buyer or the seller, because neither is buying bitcoins to hold. you don't make fun of either of these people, because you can use bitcoin to buy things that your hosed up government prohibits because it's dumb, like psilocybin or LSD then there are people mining bitcoin for profit, who have mental illness and need your compassion and then there are the people investing money in bitcoin because they expect the exchange rate between bitcoins and dollars to change, and those people are loving stupid, but not mentally ill, and these are the people who it's fine to cyberbully and then there are the people writing option and futures contracts for bitcoin, and these people have mental illness but it's the kind where the cure is a guillotine

gently caress You And Diebold posted:How do bitcoin people expect to actually make money from it? Do they expect to buy cars or houses or rent with bitcoin? Yes. Bob has one bitcoin, and "the market" says that that bitcoin is worth a thousand dollars, so Bob should be able to buy a thousand dollars worth of stuff with it. Now, you and I know that this doesn't really work because you couldn't cash-out all the bitcoin in the world if you tried, but if Bob wants to buy something from Adam, and both Adam and Bob believe that the bitcoin is worth a thousand dollars, then Bob can send his one bitcoin to Adam in exchange for one thousand dollars worth of Adam's stuff, and the question of cashing out the bitcoin is skipped entirely.

Also remember that receiving an EFT from a bitcoin exchange will probably end in your bank account being locked and your national tax service auditing your finances.
