Hi,

just say: IT'S BETTER  Cheesy

now seriously, I'm quite successfull saying that bitcoins vs fiat are same as e-mails vs classic post office and it works.



well, there isn't that much you can tell them

just tell about decentralisation, don't forge the pizza story, that's important! Smiley

The "pizza story?" Did I miss this one? Do tell. (And I like the faucet idea. I heard through the grapevine that there is such a thing as "faucet rotators?")

That is the greatest bitcoin trade of all time lol. Cheesy

Long story short, a bitcointalk user "laszlo" spent 10000 bitcoin (yes it is 10K btc) for a pizza in May 2010.
The original thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=137.0


ROFL I bet laszlo is regretting that! I sure hope he/she got some darned good pizza.

no, he don't. I've caught him online some time ago, and he wrote he enjoyed his pizza, thats all. Immediatelly after that post one member sent him 1 BTC. Smiley,  very nice gesture.
