    Very likely, humans will be extinct by 2140. Aliens will not need bitcoins.

  • Clearly each of you don't own Swiss Bank accounts or gold reserves. I have never heard two people speak so much rubbish about the maintaining value of present wealth into the future. "What is gold?: I heard one of you say with contempt. That's just foolish ignorance is all that I can say. A few hours with a calculator is all that is needed to discover Bitcoin's irrational proposition.
