Comment Re:Why would I want this...? (Score 2) 55

To be honest a large part of my "doctor" experience has been with actual nurse practitioners who just listen to what I tell them, check vitals and give me a prescription. I rarely see an actual doctor and rarely have a doctor physically check me. I don't say virtual works in all circumstances (like an annual where they check your heart/vitals etc) but telling me I need an antibiotic or specific medication for herp shouldnt require a 200 dollar physical visit.

"We have also seen that cryptocurrencies are not amenable to definition as a currency, asset or commodity; they have no underlying cash flows, they have no intrinsic value; that they are akin to Ponzi schemes, and may even be worse," IRS disagrees. "Cryptocurrency is a type of virtual currency that uses cryptography to secure transactions that are digitally recorded on a distributed ledger, such as a blockchain. A transaction involving cryptocurrency that is recorded on a distributed ledger is referred to as an “on-chain” transaction; a transaction that is not recorded on the distributed ledger is referred to as an “off-chain” transaction."
