every country in this world has their own  money denomination system.
I don't think that one bitcoin will solve anything.
The market shifts all the time.
Value increases and decreases.
I don't think people use cash as much anymore.

I guess I'm a prove it to me type of gal. I'm staying far away from anything involving bitcoins. The idea of the value fluctuating scarese the heck out of me.

It came out with a splash, but my understanding is there is no backup of this computer generated "currency".

I have not heard much about it, except on the negative scam.  Just a flash in the pan type of thing.

 :) Legitimate currency has to be backed with gold, silver, or a precious asset. Bit Coins have none of the characteristics of being a solvent currency. In my opinion, they are bad news. :)

A few businesses have started using bitcoins, but not sure if it will be successful overall.  I am a wait and see individual.

Bit coin is an interesting idea that at one time intrigued me, but the price fluctuates too much. It seems like a really bad investment. So I won't be trying it anytime soon.

its untraceable, so im sure it will be around a long time. but it cant replace cash, its value goes up and down, cash does not. we would most likely just goto all credit and have a chip implanted in our wrists. (make all the mark of the beast jokes you want.)

What's the exchange rate now? I feel like it's ridiculous, but it makes me wish I invested in bitcoins when they first became a thing!
