re: #151 Belafon
Here’s my bitcoin analogy I came up with for a friend of mine: Ever had a $20 bill and stood in front of a soda machine? It may say $20, but it isn’t worth anything if you can’t use it.
There are increasing numbers of places that accept Bitcoin now, so the analogy is only going to be valid for a while. With the way everything is being hooked to the Internet now, you could probably buy your Coke by holding your phone next to a Near Field Receiver in the not-so-distant future.
