People are looking for a safe haven from fiat currencies,
but this isn’t likely any safer.

You can pay your extortion fee in Bitcoin.

I was wondering that too, may be some girlfriend’s name, like Rose, Daisy, Lili, or Iris. Though, I don’t know if I’d ever want to date someone called ‘Nasturtium’, sounds kinky...

Bit coin is only doing what The Fed and other Central banks are doing. Printing unbacked money to the max beyond all traditional boundaries. A modest fiat money system is workable but not the Feds version

Pretty cool map - and in real time as well.

I noticed that both this morning and tonight there seems to be heavy buying from Beijing and modest to light buying in the U.S. and Europe.

China looks to be a far more aggressive buyer of both gold and BitCoin it seems. BTW, will Germany ever get the gold the Fed ‘promised’ them?

interesting; http://www.prisonplanet.com/banks-warn-fed-they-may-have-to-start-charging-depositors.html was talking about everyone wanting to move into gold & bitcoin; hadn’t heard about the fed German gold promise, googling didn’t seem to get anywhere; what are you hearing?

I’m not hearing or seeing anything new on Germany’s gold. I guess everyone was told (ordered?) to bury the story.

The prospect of paying a bank for depositing your money is disturbing, to say the least. It means the end is near, imo.

yeah, sounds about right because when I googled it I got a pings on a long series of articles going way back --like some reporter spots it, sees nothing having been done, reports it, and then the word goes out to bury it.

That's ok, we know...
