Assuming you're looking for a company that's publicly listed so you can invest and ride the growth of bitcoin in a different way than actually investing in the currency? Haven't heard of any companies going public - and even if they did, it would be extremely difficult to get your hands on the IPO shares.

LOL! The experiment is trying to see whether people will donate Bitcoins or not! (Maybe.. I'm just guessing).

Topic OP
Bitcoin Vending Machines?
by
SirBitsalot
on 17/01/2014, 23:28:20 UTC
We're already starting to see Bitcoin ATM's (or whatever the hell you want to call them), so my question is: when will we start seeing vending machines that accept Bitcoins? Or are they already in existence and I've been living under a rock the past few years?

I'm just fascinated by seeing Bitcoins enter the public sphere with things like ATM's. Considering still that most people don't know what the hell Bitcoins are.

OR, make a cola that can only be purchased by Bitcoins! Lol, kidding, I could see little codes and giveaways like that being a really big hit!

Too bad all bitcoin mining will be dead this year, Mining will be only for the millionaires.

So so so so much true! Grin
Pretty soon the cost of ASIC's will be more than a full years' worth of mining.

Re: Phase I complete - Bitcoin is officially legitimate in 2014

They can't say it's illegal after selling it ? Of course they can.
That'd be like the FBI saying something is illegal, and then doing it anyways. They do it all the time! BUT, Bitcoins are a global interest and would mean that a LOT of people would be very upset.

PS: There are at least 2 such projects, btw.
So which one are you talking about? Is the first letter an I or an E?

What are the elements which make you suspicious toward them?
^What he said. Maybe you can find something out just based on their code. If the first letter isn't an I or an E then yes, you are getting scammed.

Re: DO NOT ALLOW TAXATION IN BITCOIN

on 17/01/2014, 22:57:33 UTC
Being decentralized and anonymous, the first task of course is to figure out how exactly to tax it. 
^this. It would be way to much work to isolate who uses Bitcoins, determine the tax rate, and then implement it when it's so scattered.

I can't believe we made it this far. Shit was scary when mt gox got their bank accounts seized. Now we are officially legitimate. When the fbi sells the coins, it's sealed. Because they can't say thanks for the money, now theyre illegal.

Phase II is now, not price stability, but a solid price floor. I cant wait until the price is impossible to move below $1000. At that point Bitcoin is officially successful and nothing can ever stop it.

Getting replaced? Never. Look at ipv6, its 2014 and its at 0. ThIs forum doesn't even support it and we have amazing coders here. As Andreas said, "it's good enough."

Phase III is love.

Wow, you seem very attached to Bitcoins lol. But I'm with ya, especially with the part about there not being a replacement. Either a.) Bitcoins are never replaced and grow into a respected currency. Or b.) They are shut down  and banned as they don't promote the National level.

I don't see anything replacing them.

Interesting.. ya know, the more I think about it, the more I believe nations will ban Bitcoins and deem them "unconstitutional" or whatever they need to.. Decentralized things never go over very well with governments

People have been scamming every type of currency since the beginning OF currency. I doubt seeing the DAC attempting to scam Bitcoins will come to much of a shock to anyone.
