Re: The BTC patron, who is he/she?

Your questionnaire is missing a question:

Did you ever buy drugs or any other products from SilkRoad?

Hahahahahahaha
LOL

well it does ask if you every purchased any goods or services.... up to you how you classify your above habit....

Does anyone know, are there any brothels that are open to accepting BTC as a method of payment.... that would be interesting, considering how often most of you IT freaks frequent such a location ;-)

I don't think you got my point...

Bitcoin is meant to provide anonymity.
You are asking things that you can never know unless someone tells you.

Also, as far as your idiotic comments,
No I do not have a habit of purchasing goods from SilkRoad,
and I don't need to visit brothels (unlike you, who cannot get any Wink

).

I am happily married and even before that I had a VERY active and happy sex life.
And I never paid one single cent to have sex.
That is against my beliefs.

Anyways,
good luck with your research.

? It was you who asked the Q about drugs and silk road??? It seems like your asking and answering your own question?

Anyway to you point - yes BTC is about anonymity, which would immediately make it an interesting payment method for the sex industry - you may claim to not subscribe to it, but many do for many reasons. Who's to judge.

Thanks for re-assuring the forum about your sex life, not sure if that was a question at all, but like all therapy questions it's good to get things off your chest, helps you move on with life. Happy to help the fellow man!

Now to the point, little is know about BTC consumption and to help in small ways to bring some empirical data to the table would be great. Unfortunately there is not much known about this topic and the more facts and figures available the higher the chance that such a currency can be scale-able to daily needs. In order to move BTC from a fad to reality it needs to become mainstream as possible. And opinions won't help the cause...

If anyone has other published data on this topic, feel free to share. I am struggling to find anything online. So this is my starting point...
