Is this actually intellectually stimulating to hackers? Should I start posting stock tickers for karma?

Skyrocketing value is not a desirable trait for a would be currency.

I'm more than happy to read technical matters, but it's gone up and down over and over. It's no more interesting that posting Google or Apple stock prices. It's becoming a dead horse with these price posts.

#10Bitcoin is living up to it's reputation as digital gold.
The Chinese are running away from RMB and buying bitcoin, Venezuelans are running away from Bolivares into Bitcoin. And to a lesser extent some Indians are escaping the Rupee.
It'll be really interesting to see how governments try to deal with decentralized currencies if they really take off. Governments lose a lot of control when they can't control money.
