    "illegally invented"


    how do you illegally invent something? I know the authorities are not gonna like bitcoin, but I don't think they're classifying it as thoughtcrime just yet

    Any currency not created by the Federal Reserve is considered a crime. Thus being illegal. Invented currency for use on the internet is called inventing. so they added the two together.

    Obviously not. Any currency not created by the Federal Reserve in the United States is considered a crime. :P

    Jim Cramer (Mad Money) as himself. That should be interesting. I remember when Jon Stewart cornered him and accused him of encouraging the overinvesting that led to our crisis. That interview was AWKWARD.

    I always like when law shows explore attorney/client confidentiality. One of my fave eps that did this was Law & Order's season 14 ep called "Bodies." A powerful ep. Every time I watch it, chills.

    A currency made outside U.S. can be spent inside U.S.?

    I think that it must be converted from the initial form of currency to the equivalent amount in American dollars.

    I haven't seen anything like this anywhere in the world. I'm not familiar with US laws, but worst case, the "vendor" would *have* to accept USD (i.e. can't ask explicitly for Euro), that's what legal tender means. That doesn't mean you can't exchange other currencies, that's ridiculous.

    I'm sure that's not the law in the United States, but if it is, just pack up and run away.

     That is not true.  There are several currencies in the US that are not illegal.  The Liberty dollar wasn't even illegal.

    Why don't you ask someone who knows? You've  lost me on this one.

    I remember that. He surely walked off the set sweating. I watched it twice and decided that he did do a very good job of defending himself and his network. The financial crisis couldn't have happened without a whole lot of smart people all believing something false that had seemed true for decades.

    This isn't true. Others have created currencies though they don't have a track record of success. See Flooz.

    Currencies made in the US can be spent in the US, even if the Federal Reserve didn't make it. There's about 100 different currencies within the US, that are honored by individuals and businesses, in exchange for products and services. For example, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ithaca_Hours
