< >THe btc is shady with such problem about trust, we have a forum that need to support such activities?

The forum should not. Nor should it support illegal gambling (yeah, it's illegal in US, where theymos' at). And yet, here we are...

You have a chance to step out of the norms of society and establish a new way of thinking
You mean step out of society's norms & into the traffic to gamble online & invest in Ponzis? Err... How about no?

and you want to let the governement creep back in to the discussion of what is legal and what is not?
I'm not letting the government "creep back in" anywhere. Mainly because it never asks for my permission, oddly enough. But it *will* step in, without knocking. And ban the shit out of Bitcoin for everybody.
Because you just *had to* gamble away all your money to make a political statement.

If you judge what some one does with there bitcoin you are allowed to in a free world. What you should not be allowed to do is restrict what some one does with their funds because you see it do be stupid or ill advised. Any form of expression that is connected to a account is a restriction because it allows people to judge those that partake. If I have to walk around with a label on my head that says I am into granny porn,it would be a rough go. Negative rep works in same way.

Dear Confused:
Outside of society's norms, you're free to jerk it to grannies, just like other freedom lovers are free to label you & tell everyone about it.
No rules for you = no rules for them. Everything not expressly forbidden is permitted Smiley
