A bitcoin is international cash.

The new wave of esperanto is comming

Hasn't Bitcoin lost most of the value it once had?

I am studying, living and breathing bitcoin since 2012.
If you need any info, just ping me okulumo.gif

Since 2014 I'm mainly focused on another cryptocurrency which provides privacy. Bitcoin is, even if you read otherwise, completely transparent. Tools are being developed to unmask a large part of the transactions and people who transact.

Actually, this coin brought me to this very forum and community. The coin is named "monero" (coin in esperanto). That's one of the reasons I got interested in the language. We even use the esperanto plural when we refer to multiple coins (moneroj) and people who are a member of the monero community call themselves moneranoj okulumo.gif

Bitcoin... Does it really matter what the currency is? Currency is nothing but a representation of exchange and does nothing to address the balance or imbalance of how wealth is created or the access to it.
To the market-minded semi-idealists it probably seems iconoclastic to be 'into' Bitcoin as against the regular currencies. Give it time and growth and its crooks and scandals will be there.

I've been following bitcoin for a while. I think its an interesting economic experiment and a reminder as to why we have regulation in the first place. I would never actually buy any.

There was a relatively high profile scandal involving a Bitcoin-based marketplace for selling illegal drugs online called the "Silk Road." I forget the name of the guy who founded it but they eventually tracked him down and arrested him. I've heard rumors that there are plenty of other illegal drug markets online that take Bitcoin, though I myself have never looked into it. For a while, there were few laws governing the use of Bitcoin as currency. Now, however, the United States at least recognizes Bitcoin as a currency for the purposes of commerce, taxes and tax evasion, etc.

I learned all this from mainstream news articles. I have no experience with Bitcoin myself and I'm surprised to learn of any link to Esperanto.

Isn't the goal of Bitcoin much like that of Esperanto?

"To create a supplemental international insturment that is free of nationality"

There is no actual link to Esperanto whatsoever.

Yah. Pretty much. Today 1 Bitcoin is worth about 300 dollars.

It is still a great tool for anonymous money transfers but it requires some technical knowledge. It isn't very user friendly. Future versions should be more secure, stable, and user friendly
