What % of the US population should own bitcoin?


Everyone should own bitcoins, IMO. But I don't recommend anyone buy them because I don't want people to blame me if bitcoin crashes.

Is that a fair enough position? When I tell people not to buy bitcoins, it's only to cover my arse. I have no problem acknowledging it.

That depends on a lot of factors, both on the individual's tolerance of risk, their stage in life, etc. I'd say that if someone is going to buy bitcoins as a speculative investment that they only do it with money they can afford to lose.

It's clear you want to have it both ways.

I knew that 4 months ago. It's actually pretty ingenious. If it works he says "I WAS RIGHT". If it fails he says "I TOLD YOU NOT TO BUY". Either way, he's right.

The pope sounds like he might agree with bitcoin, at least its goals.

Pope calls for end of tyranny of currency

So is ammunition. I can actually use ammunition. And I also know that eventually ammo will come down to a realistic level.

That's wonderful. Maybe you should start an ammo thread.
