Hey man, I didn't edit anything, I just posted on the talk page here. Might want to learn how to read IPs there, champ. What's with the name calling? Is your position so weak that you have to resort to name calling and ad hominem attacks? It's great you've been a Wikipedia editor this long. While you were spergin' out over an online encyclopedia I was having sex with girls and doing drugs. For the record, no currency does have a real value, but at least fiat money is a physical thing that I can hold use to buy essential goods and services. All I can do with BTC is trade them for real money to do those things. Why not skip the middleman and just start out with real money in the first place? I can attack this from another angle too: BTC Is bad for the environment. Mining requires extensive processing power which uses a lot of electricity. I saw some math earlier today; generating BTC requires over 10 million kWh every year. That's a lot of electricity being used to produce what is in essence an imaginary currency. -timb
