    I used to be skeptical about bitcoins, thinking it was a silly idea; but after seeing its usage increase, I'm now thinking that it just might prevail. Just like other things involving technology or familiarization with a process, such as how to get onto the internet, getting an email account, using a smartphone, how to open and use a credit union account, how to pay online bills, how to take a commercial airline flight, how to drive, how to dial a number, etc., people will eventually figure out how to use bitcoin if it does indeed prevail in the long run.

    I thought maybe we ought to come up with a competitor version of a virtual currency to bitcoins, Googled "paulcoin", and sure enough, someone else thought of this idea long ago LOL: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=41764.0

    Yep me too. Bought a domain, web hosting, donated to a few causes and artists, bought some digital items, paid a subscription, played poker

    The list of thing available for bitcoins certainly is getting longer and longer!

    The going rate on Darkweb a couple of days ago was $8.50, IIRC.

    Public education is not education ... it is schooling.
    Our military is not defense ... it is warmongering and empire building.
    Government police do not protect ... they control.
    Regulations do not regulate ... they protect the status quo.
    Government banks do not distribute money based on effort ... it is gifted to close friends ... and some of it trickles down.

    The result is war, poverty, fear, chaos, and hopelessness for most people with abundance for a few elite.
