Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
Are you really that dense? Would you have preferred I use gold?
Ah yes, that well known universal settlement mechanism, gold. You watch too many James Bond movies
(Which also happens to be used by billions of people, from rich to poor, in electronics and jewelery BTW)
The good ol' industrial use argument...
While not the same universal settlement mechanism it very much once was, seems to me gold still retains a pretty market cap absent of any actual adoption as money from "billions of people".
But rejoice! Bitcoin is even better than gold at this job.

If independence means freedom, in the emerging Era of Bitcoin, independence means freedom from physicality, both geographic and material. If Germany had its wealth stored in BTC instead of gold, it wouldnt have to beg the USG to please, pretty please, let it audit its own stores under Manhattan. If Germany stockpiled bitcoin instead of gold, it might actually be an independent nation.
Consider yourself lucky. Seeing as you have realized the "Bitcoin opportunity" sooner than 99% of the world's population you shouldn't have any problem transacting directly on its blockchain in the future.
