The Cartoon gets real...

in #bitcoin7 years ago

Just found this interesting articel at WSJ. The first thing I thaught of was the following cartoon I‘ve seen some while ago.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/long-island-woman-charged-with-funding-isis-1513294077

Short: A woman stole money, changed it to bitcoin and funded ISIS. The problem is, according to WSJ, bitcoin. Of course.

I‘m curios if this is just a lonely articel, or the start of discrediting bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. What do you think?

Sort:  

I mean, it could happen.. The USA buying enough amounts, surpassing satoshi's amount of BTC and therefore being able to control the inflation of the price, can't it? Satoshi already acts as sort of a "bank" for the coin, having 1M of it.. Economy experts, help a noob out xD

I agree. That‘s another way to make it unattractive. If you can create money out of thin air you can control the prices...

Exactly! But due to BTC fixed amount (besides the omes created during mining ) prevents that, to a certain extent!!
Nice post mate! Check my first posts and gimme some advice 😄 would really appreciate it!!
