Пирамида Биткойн уже готова

[idan11]

 И особенно преуспел в этом Китай.
On Tuesday, the price of a Bitcoin exceeded 7,000 yuan (about $1,120) on the BTC China platform.

Охренеть - 1120 зелёных баксов!
А почему бы и нет?
China Central Bank Official: People Should be Free to Use Bitcoin Exchanges.
"Speaking in Chinese at an economic forum, Mr Yi made statements to the effect that it would be impossible for China’s central bank to recognize bitcoin as a legal, legitimate financial instrument “in the near future”. But perhaps more significantly, he added that people should be free to buy and sell bitcoins on exchanges with no interference from the central bank, and that he would personally look at the digital currency with a long-term perspective."
(Yi Gang, the deputy governor of the People’s Bank of China - какое имя-фамилиё красивое у чувака, что так "пропагандирует" биткойн).
Т.е. легальной валютой ЭТО НЕ СТАНЕТ, но "лишнее" бабло туда можете вложить.

Вот хороший коммент по поводу биткойнов -
"Bitcoin:

* An American invention, most likely.

* The pseudonymous creator chose a Japanese name.

* The real creator is unknown, could be NSA, Google, Apple, random computer geek.

* Millions of currency units are in the hands of unknown actors, a large amount probably belong to the creator(s). These guys would become immensely powerful if BTC became mainstream.

* Most of the early mining was done by Americans.

* A currency useful for money laundering (among other purposes).

This doesn’t exactly sound like something the Chinese government is likely to like. If they are going to allow digital currency to spread in China, then they will set up their own version (easy enough as BTC is open source), as they have done with credit cards, Facebook, Twitter, ….

While the US government MIGHT try to shut BTC down, the Chinese government without any doubt WILL. Don’t forget to cash in before the news break…"

И чо я совсем не удивлён?
