Re: Do you accept Bitcoins?
I've been waiting for that one to burst for a long time, and it looks like it isn't going to happen. The more money printed to save the economy (housing ultimately) drives down the pound, so making it cheap for foreign investors to buy our housing, then rent it at inflated prices, keeping prices up.fakiee wrote:We have that in the U.K, it's called the housing market.

Yes, it seems the new Amrican dream is to make money without doing any real work. Changing right before our eyes.
If bitcoin didn't go parabolic and get all of the current euphoria be it negative or positive, it could make it as a decent digital currency. It allows us to avoid Ebay, Paypal, bank trasnfers, etc. Have you ever tried transferring money internationally without paypal? My bank charges £16 to send money to a Eurpoean bank account![/quote]
Yep, you're right about the £ and foreign investors not to mention immigration. It will collapse in the end it will either be inflation or a currency crisis that drives it, when I don't know.
I'm hedging on baked beans

You got me thinking....scr8p wrote:I guess I would except bitcoins. But just remember that money is dirty so you really should keep it away from your mouth. Not to mention you could damage your teeth if you bite them.
Why hasn't a TV network resurrected The Gong Show yet?
