and now they're about to do it again, in ukraine. it's already written in to law in a good few other countries, too.
Here we go again. I can see it now... That 'Bitcoin User Not Affected' meme will be making a comeback.

This thread is nearly a year old. OP was made on 28 March last year. And what has changed? Nothing... Roll Eyes

Things like this take time, most people are too stupid to understand things that are going on around them. Until it hits them personally.

Once enough people are feeling the pain of being ass-raped by the banks and governments, they will look for a solution. That solution will be either gold, silver, or bitcoin. Most likely all 3 of them (some persons get bitcoin, some get gold, some get silver, some get a combination).

This, people are so stupid it actually is hard to believe.  People will refuse to believe their countries paper money could ever fail until it's toilet paper.   Not a single of my IRL friends think it is possible for the CAD to fail...

Psychological research has shown that this problem can be solved by stories. Stupid people refuse to believe things unless they either a) hear a story or b) can imagine a story themselves of how it would happen.

Since they are incapable of imagining it themselves, they duty of telling the story falls on you. So do it. Telling a story could be interesting for you too.
