This guy claim he is going to travel around the world and live in bitcoin! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=738693.0

I think there are more ppl that do but its not so easy yet. I am getting there Smiley

nah this guy just wants a free holiday at the expense of others. its not what i or others call a good publicity stunt. bitcoin needs to be seen as a investment proposition and a method of payment, not something for throwing money away to strangers. charity drives and money grabs seem good, but beneath the surface people see that bitcoin has no value if people are just throwing it away.

put it this way bitcoin has a total cap of 21million coins. gold has a cap of about 175k tonnes.

so if someone was asking for the comparable amount, in gold. would you give him it.

"a guy wants 0.666 tonnes of gold to go around the world to tell people how great gold is"
"a guy wants 35274 ounces of gold to go around the world to tell people how great gold is"
"a guy wants 1milion grams of gold to go around the world to tell people how great gold is"
