   @alejandroindependiente @aw I dunno, maybe someone might want to send bitcoins to you. But this is where the grand scheme falls down, because as far as I can tell bitcoin isn't really used as a working currency and instead it's just held as a speculative asset. My rule of thumb is that if I can't buy bread with a currency then it's not of much real value.

      Although the Canadian Revenue Agency requires you to pay taxes on #Bitcoin transactions, it won't seem like a true currency to me until CRA accepts tax payment in Bitcoin.

         @bobjonkman @bob It will be a true currency when I can buy children with it, but I can only do that with monero. Feelsbadman.

      Agree with you. Also I don't like the idea of buying currency and selling it for higher profit. You're not contributing anything tangible to the society, but you get huge profit.
