  As Argentina just defaulted on it's debt for a second time, the potential of Bitcoin to solve these countries financial problems is more promising than ever.

  Question for Jeffrey and Andreas: What specific country do you see fully adopting bitcoin as their national currency or at least pegging their current fiat currency to the value of bitcoin?

  We all know that in the short term future some brave, progressive thinking country either out of desperation or inspiration will adopt bitcoin on a national scale. Which specific country do they predict will be first?

  Best,

  Dale.

  Question for each of you: Do you have any advice or foresee hurdles for companies, who are already working with government contracts, that want to introduce Bitcoin?

  An example would be a private payment processor, with state government contracts, proposing to accept BTC as a optional payment method.

  Thanks. Love listening to you guys. -Mark

  Can you clarify what you mean? Do you mean do people want to use our platform for their own community or company? Yes. We're also looking at spinning off the technology platform as a startup and focusing LTB on being a first user of the technology that helps it get developed.

  Or perhaps i've misunderstood your meaning, I don't think anyone can answer this question but me, so feel free to restate.

  Any comment on any other Alt coin that you feel captures something unique in the cryptocurrency space? Besides LTBcoin obviously :P

  I'd like to ask Jeffrey Tucker:

  • Does Counterparty prove that Bitcoin has intrinsic value?
  • What do you think of proof-of-stake? Do you see this incentive as inferior or superior, from an Economic perspective, to proof-of-work?

  I'd like to ask Andreas

  • What do you think about the feasibility of Ethereum and Bitshares given the "fragileness" of a new blockchain. Or, more specifically, if the Bitcoin Blockchain has terrawatts of hashing power, and Ethereum only has megawatts, will Ethereum have the ability to succeed in facilitating 'large' trades given the relative ease of a 51% attack?

  And I'd like to ask Andreas and Tucker:

  • Does the Internet resist government regulation primarily due to its incompatibility with allodial title?

  I'm curious about all each of your thoughts on Lawsky and his BitLicense proposal. I don't hear too much chatter about it, so maybe I'm the only one fearful of the precedence it might set and the potential harm it could do. Of course, I'm also hopeful that bitcoin has too much weight and momentum behind it now and that Lawsky will just get steam rolled and come out other end looking like the ass he is.

  Life is very busy for many of us. I do not have time to look up the "ins and outs" of bitcoin and all the other altcoin. How about a one stop place to be brought up to speed with this whole ecosystem. I would love to trade coins. All I really understand is how to buy from coinbase. There will be a flood of newbies.

  What impact do you think NY state's Bitlicenses on the crypto economy as a whole? Do you see altcoins rising if they are not subjected to as stringent rules as Bitcoin? Do you see this legislation as something that will help legitimize Bitcoin for the masses or something that will have an overall negative impact on the crypto-communty?
