If and when, BTC would threaten the USD as world currency do you not think the Feds would go to ANY measure to stop it? Executive Order 6102 Executive Order 6102 required all persons to deliver on or before May 1, 1933, all but a small amount of gold coin, gold bullion, and gold certificates owned by them to the Federal Reserve in exchange for $20.67 (equivalent to $413 in 2020) per troy ounce. Under the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917, as amended by the recently passed Emergency Banking Act of March 9, 1933, a violation of the order was punishable by fine up to $10,000 (equivalent to $200,000 in 2020), up to ten years in prison, or both. The order specifically exempted "customary use in industry, profession or art," a provision that covered artists, jewelers, dentists, sign-makers, etcetera. The order also permitted any person to own up to $100 in gold coins, a face value equivalent to 5 troy ounces (160 g) of gold valued at approximately $10,000 in 2020. The same paragraph also exempted "gold coins having recognized special value to collectors of rare and unusual coins", which protected recognized gold coin collections from legal seizure and likely melting. The price of gold from the Treasury for international transactions was then raised by the Gold Reserve Act to $35 an ounce (equivalent to $700 in 2020). The resulting profit that the government realized funded the Exchange Stabilization Fund, established by the 1934 Gold Reserve Act. The regulations prescribed in the executive order were modified by Executive Order 6111 on April 20, 1933, both of which were ultimately revoked and superseded by Executive Orders 6260 and 6261 on August 28 and 29, 1933, respectively. Executive Order 6102 also led to the extreme rarity of the 1933 Double Eagle gold coin. The order caused all gold coin production to cease and all 1933 minted coins to be destroyed. About 20 illegal coins were stolen, leading to an outstanding US Secret Service warrant for arrest and confiscation of the coin. A legalized surviving coin sold for over $7.5 million in 2002, making it one of the most valuable coins in the world.
I want to hear it from the developer himself, who apparently claimed the coin was designed as a joke, a POS nothing.
Naah, Bitcoin and hodlers of other crypto majors are doing just fine Perhaps your price feeds are broken, but Bitcoin is still over $40K and Ethereum is still over $3K If we need our monthly supply of ramen, we can sell anywhere in the world including at Coinbase, Kraken or Gemini 0.015 btc or 0.2 Eth and get the $600 to visit the local Costco
Thank you for that. Fucking Brits, they don't understand stand syntax. Oh well, it's Douzhe. It is so unfun in pronunciation convention. If you put a dog on it, then say DOG! *sniffs*
What is your reasoning behind crypto being sensitive to interest rates? Is it the fact of zero coupon and infinit maturity?
by now i think almost all crypto exchanges offer free Visa or Mastercards that instantly convert crypto to local currency. try again.
