Loading ...I don’t see how any government… or ALL governments for that matter… could outlaw Bitcoin. It is peer-to-peer users worldwide.

No government could stop me from trading my bits privately with someone who wants to give me gold… or food… or any other personal property. It is the ultimate private barter. All governments can do is regulate the ‘exchanges’ where they get the local currency exchanged.
