i have been paid in bitcoins for 2 and a half years. i do not care about dollar prices or UK prices. i live happily on bitcoin for food, rent and bills..

although only a few special people have actually done some work to establish merchant adoption to secure our living costs which can be managed in bitcoin (getting our local grocer and landlord to accept bitcoin), the OP and others just sitting on their hands moaning about bitcoin adoption, need to shut up and do some work helping get THEIR local stores to accept it. or realise that bitcoin is still in innovation stage and if they cant be bothered to help themselves then continue to shut up and wait for someone else in their town to 'man up' and get their stores to accept bitcoin.

personal note to anyone living in an area where little to no one knows about bitcoin or lives nearby
YOU really need to do it for your area, or YOUR whinging and crying wont do anything, 'man up' boys and help yourselves out
