Hi JD, Mike and Dan:

Bitcoin is an interesting topic. Being an old geezer who has witnessed all manner of schemes and "pie in the sky" deals, I tend to mistrust just about anything until the smoke, dust and hype have been cleared away and the truth is common knowledge.

When officials of our government begin ballyhooing something like this, my mistrust level rises to epic proportions. Left, Right or Middle... who knows what or who is behind this? I think the safest position is to hang onto your hard earned cash.

The opinion stated is only that of an old fossil born during the days of the great depression. How's that for depressing?

All the best,

Dave
