I know I'm new here and all that, but I have a concept I'd like to run by you all - it's basically a fund which we can use to guarantee fiat cash to regular merchants. The fund will be "untouchable" by any individual - in fact I propose that it requires 3 out of 4 trustees to be able ...

Quote from: beekeeper on Today at 12:51:12 PM There is only 100 million BTC worth produced so far, hard to get 80 million overnight.. It wouldn't surprise me if some of these countries with trade/banking embargoes are using Bitcoin, but for transactions of smaller amounts (i.e. amount...
