  2. I think that bitcoin is not a good idea because as stated in the article, it's an anonymous currency in that no user is associated with it and it's used for illegal and illicit transactions. I believe that I read that China is already outlawing the practice and wouldn't be surprised if the us is right behind. Besides, not sure i'd even trust myself with 'remembering' my password, which i can't even do with my 4 or 5 gmail accounts.

  3. i think bitcoin would be a dumb idea because you cant use it absolutely anywhere you want and if thats the case then your not really in any luck because you can go somewhere then not be able to pay because they dont accept bitcoins
