It's easy to see your chosen field as something everyone else should learn the "basics" of, but so can everyone else with respect to their field. The first two years of a college degree have become an incoherent mishmash of well intended requirements that blend together into an apathy inspiring sludge. Then when students struggle to care about classes, or only produce bare minimum to pass work, students are told there is something wrong with them. As someone who just finished up his 2-year I saw so very much of this. So many want their subject to be required, but then no one wants to be responsible for the negative consequences of their implementation. It's just the student's fault.

Anything can be stolen, but at least investment accounts are insured and my physical goods can be covered by renters/auto insurance.

Between coins getting stolen or lost BTC is just too damn risky. So many seem to think, "Aww, it's just that other guy who got wiped out. That could never happen to me".

In Enron's case perpetrators of that scam went to jail, and at least paid some of the money they lost back. I doubt a person could get a fraction of that amount of justice after getting their Bitcoins stolen.

Bitcoin is really an amazing thing. The ability and ease by which you can send any fraction of money anywhere rather easily is quite an accomplishment. Yet, without any sort of insurance I do not believe this market can stand. Sure you can keep your coins in a paper wallet offline, but those coins have to come back online sometime. When they do, you may just be the victim of just the right 0-day exploit and suddenly all your coins have been sent off to a mysterious Bitcoin address.

Was that the majority of your savings? Too bad, so sad. Feel free to file a police report that will do absolutely nothing though.

And so castles made of sand, melts into the sea eventually.

Because no one calls it that, and it's actual name is cryptocurrency

It's the latency afforded by buying rackspace directly within stock exchanges that poses a problem.

Better than a DNA tagged sock joke

Someone had actually been charged with something rather than just some random guy supposing it could happen.

They're TRASHING our rights, man! They're TRASHING the flow of data! They're TRASHING! TRASHING! TRASHING!

Ziggy says there is a 85.45% chance of that being true

Thank you. This was just what I was looking for
