Lol. Re: girlfriends - mine kept saying 'what if it's not really open source? What if it's a plot by *insertshit*.
I would say 'no look, here is the source code. Look. It's there. That's it. That's what it is. I can see what it is and what it will do.'
More frustrating than the bear market tbh!
I would say to mine "No one can stop you transacting Bitcoin and there is no power
on earth that can take your coins from you if you store them properly. You can walk with impunity through any customs port in the world with millions of dollars stored in your head. Bitcoin will make mockery of capital controls. Someone just transacted $20,000,000 in a few minutes and paid no fees". She would respond "that's very good my dear...... Where do you want to eat tonight".
