I *have* given a look to the technical fundamentals of Bitcoin, and there is more *substance* to the overall concept in theory, and as the past few years have shown so far, in practice, than the stuffing of all the Beanie Babies in the world.
EDIT: I hold some bitcoin, so I am not buying at these prices... but if I didn't have any, I would pay $200 just to have one for the hell of it, because the concept is intriguing when properly understood.
I personally believe there will be a crash, then all the critics will come out and pat themselves on the back and be like "Told you so!" Chris Duane will laugh at us and life will go on as people stop talking about it. When they are beating their chest, and most Bitcoiners are quiet, that's when you buy.Quote:

:p
Chris Duane will be like "ZOMG it's CIA Illuminati 666 Lizard Agenda!!!"
This process will keep occuring till theres large enough of a market cap, and enough business using cryptocurrencies until Chris Duane claims he was pro-Bitcoin/Litecoin all along and starts calling people 'tards for not buying in like he did.
By the way, as a general note, it should be understood that success is not dependent upon price.
The security of the Bitcoin protocol and network is what would constitute success/failure.
I keep expecting some large holders to cash out, but I expected a drop like that at $100 and it didn't exactly happen.
Gonzo, yur gonzo.
Beanie Babies have intrinsic value uncompared.:)*#*
I think I will forever link Beanie Babies to Avalon...Quote:

When JFK tried to messy with the money, he ended up dead. When Ghaddfi tried to mess with the dollar, he ended up dead. Saddam went the same route as well. So, what prevented them from knocking off a couple of IT hacks? Nothing. This crypto-currency is being flaunted in the government/banker's faces and nothing is happening. Maybe, they're making a list of those that subscribe to circumventing legal tender laws (FEMA camp membership) or after crashing this (BTC), they'll come up with their own "new and improved" version. You will need power/equipment/internet to run (not very self sufficient to say the least)............ We are being set up.
