If a person buys or sells bitcoins for dollars, they are supposed to register as a Money Transmitter. This is being applied to the average person even Foundations that do not angage in this, based on the associations of their members.
So, I propose nobody ever buys or sells bitcoins for dollars anymore. I propose we give them away for FREE whenever someone buys or sells a piece of blank paper, valued at approx the same price as bitcoins.
If someone is willing to buy my "pet rock" for $105.00, I'll include a FREE Bitcoin!
I completly ignore FINCEN regulations and I encourage everyone else to do the same.
lol I remember the "Pet Rocks" they were actually a thing when I was a kid and people used to actually buy them.
The Pet Rock was a throwaway idea, for the thought. What we really need is a Digital Good, capable of being sold or transferred. It can be paired with bitcoin, and then all transactions are for that product, not the bitcoins. Could be a e-card or something like that. As long as Bitcoin itself is not the item being sold for dollars, then it can be used as a part of the transaction.
An e-card would be difficult to justify for such a large transaction though. Maybe if someone developed a simple piece of software around bitcoin, made it open source, allowed people to alter and update it, or it could be a simple program, with updates. It could potentially justify the sales transactions. In essence the software would be free, but people could charge any amount they want for it, and that is the product being traded between people, not the currency of bitcoin.
