The feral government can’t devalue Bitcoin like they are going to do with the dollar one of these days.

Gold dropped $1900 to $1200 in two years. Stay away from gold & silver to.

Hey Tsonic,

Time to pay up on that wager you made on 12/29/13:

“Care to make a wager on this assertion? I say Bitcoin doubles in that time frame. Mt. Gox always quotes the highest price @ $ 743.10 right now! That means $1486.20 June 1, 2014.
You wanna give it a shot ?”
Bitcoin is a Tsunami, there is no stopping it now!

Bitcoin didn't stop and works just fine. The algorithm hasn't been broken after 6 years and people still trust it completely.

"Worst performing" is misleading here due to the novelty, speculation and media bubble perfect storm that occurred in late 2013. You can't compare it to national currencies.

Is it a currency you should store long term? No. Is it useful as an intermediate currency for digital transactions where privacy is needed? Absolutely

At least we can start fires with useless USD. You can’t say the same for bitcoins.

Hey Tsonic - newsflash - bitcoin still sucks... and I’m still a vice president of technology, despite your assertion that if I didn’t embrace bitcoin I wouldn’t be much longer!
