- SilasX 13y agoWha? Who? Super-secretive coders that you can only talk to via the darknets? Edit: Perhaps a sentient paperclip maximizer with no other way of interacting with the human financial system: http://lesswrong.com/lw/4cs/making_money_with_bitcoin/ http://lesswrong.com/lw/4cs/making_money_with_bitcoin/
- untog 13y agoWhat possible reason could they have for that? How do you file it a business expense?
- waterlesscloud 13y agoHow would you file it if you paid someone in Euros?
- TrevorJ 13y agoReally? I'd like to know more about this, if true that would be an interesting development.

When those things happen, those hypothetical developers will go running to a Bitcoin exchange to get their nation's currency (and they'll be pretty unhappy if there is a sudden, unexpected fluctuation in the price of Bitcoin).
- magoghm 13y agoThis is the first time I hear about this. Could you tell us how many talented developers there are in the "bunch"?
- smartwater 13y agoI'm one of them. I don't even accept new clients unless they come via referral. But if you have some juicy bitcoin, it's a different story.
