Until bitcoin becomes more money-like / more currency-like in the US instead of taxed as property ... I just don't see the value for me chasing that bitcoin, playboy.

I love the idea of no-bank-needed global financial transactions *.

But until the fo'c's'le either changes course or is brought to bear the weight of A Mutiny of the Bitcoin ... I'm not gonna deal with making my financial life more complicated and more risky when I have so little in my accounts.

* excepting the huge exception of needing a bank account to exchange one fiat currency for a fraction of a fiat digital property
