Bitcoin

Lol!


Just a few thoughts for today.  Canadians are happy in their jobs, according to this article. And I keep reading about 'bit coin'. According to this article 'Bitcoin is a completely decentralized form of virtual currency that enables direct payment over the internet by skipping the middleman, which is usually a bank or credit card company. Transactions are safe due to cryptography used to prevent double spending, counterfeiting, or theft. Users can use bitcoins for a variety of real transactions.'  Things are changing fast, now we are talking about digital money.  Of course this will bring its own problems that will have to be worked out through trial and error.  One of my sisters said she heard the money is not traceable so drug dealers like it.  Apparently you can already get bitcoin from kiosks in Vancouver.
