BitCoins

Post by Moe »

Bitcoins are basically a virtual currency
I don't feel like goin in depth explaining it right now, So I'll post a link to a site that explains it for me
http://www.weusecoins.com/

What are your views on this?

Weird and silly. I mean, the value of money has to come from somewhere.

But hey, if the people downstream are cool with using it as a floating currency, I say why not?

There may or may not be a site that uses this currency as a means to purchase drugs and other "illegal" items and materials. :notme:

Though, no, I do not use it. I don't trust it, no matter how much someone or something claims is full proof and fully protected, I simply do not trust it.

Right, PayPal is transferring your actual money, whereas bitcoin is itself a currency.

Right, I don't trust the US Government, should I destroy every US Dollar that I see?
