Fools and their money? Soon to be parted?

Just another idea that will separate people from their money...a man-in-the-middle attack so to speak.

Bitcoin might turn out to have some usefulness after all. A black hole for libertarian billionaires like peter thiel to put his money. Instead of lobbing and supporting the Ron Paul's and their leprechaun economics

On the other hand, if the money laundering aspect isn't neutralized. Instead of taxes driving bitcoins, the demand for coke or whatever the hip drug is will drive it. If it comes to a point where wholesalers will only except the anonymous currency. Drugs instead of taxes would create the built in demand.

Which is right up thiel's ally

Venture of funding speculation?

There is not much goods & services worth buying with bitcoins right now, but there is a lot of demand for ponzinomics & get-rich schemes specially from libertardians.

As for them building their 'dream place', about fucking time, been asking for that for a long time. I hope they all depart and go there to live the libertardian dream and leave the rest of us humans alone.
