A contract is a contract. Its form is irrelevant.

If the parties do not agree that the contract has been fulfilled, who you gonna call, Ghostbusters?

I think it is stupid to call in the government. Look at the mess they have made with their own fiat money.

But it seems that half of the people here will not be happy until Big Brother comes to settle their arguments.

Too bad they won't stick with their own fucked-up money and legal system, and leave Bitcoin alone.

Call in the government and all of a sudden JP Morgue will be trading BTC on their prop desk. Disaster. I'd have to stick to my silver in that case. You'd have CDS's in BTC to the tune of a couple trillion dollars. I wonder: can this be stopped regardless? BTC futures? Naked short selling?
