Cryptocurrency
I don't smoke weed and in my state I can legally purchase assault rifles with cash, without any registration, from non-dealers.
I bought hunting revolver in a McDonald's parking lot. The only requirement is that I'm a resident, and not a felon.
Oh, and the weapon can't be fully automatic, but that's a Federal license thing.
I just checked and I actually have a tad over .4 bitcoins left. If that gets up to $300 in value then I'd like to cash it out for something. Maybe an international money card? I dunno.
Localbitcoins (where I have my wallet) has me use the Google Authenticator app on my phone, in addition to my password. I kinda like the extra security. PokerStars used to let you do something similiar.

Yeah, I don't know what the hell is going on. My daytrading thing ended up a bust as I was left on the wrong side of a small swing with cash instead of bitcoin. I know I should just hop back in but it hurts to buy so high when surely any minute now it's going to go back down again for a bit ... it has to ... doesn't it?

Man, I don't know. These things have no value, other than what other people will pay, they're barely accepted anywhere.
I mean, it's a bubble... but does it pop now or at 1k or 20k? It's popped several times before, but always comes back stronger.
I have 2 BC. I paid $355 each. Might sell one today, then ride the other.
It's not me, it's someone else.
There are quite a few places to spend Bitcoins.
Getting a Z-Pak would be good for a bug out bag.
(Aquarium antibiotics work too)
Strip4Bit has camwhores that take Bitcoin.
I'll probably buy some Reddit gold, but I don't know what to do with the rest.
Maybe PayPak?
I do feel like the Chinese are just going crazy with them, and soon the bubble will burst, but we'll see.

Earlier today I was driving in my car, and I just had this vision of a world running on bitcoins, mobsters, criminals, normal people, everything. It was all bitcoins. I mean, if I'm a private person (*cough* criminal *cough*) why do I want dollars? Because other people take dollars. Because I can get stuff for them. But they're cumbersome, physically, and logically. Moving through bank accounts that can always be shutdown, no matter how you move them. Having to clean them. Bitcoins can reduce transactional costs for the illegal economy. As long as those people want bitcoins, bitcoins are valuable.
Even litecoins are exploding. $4 last week, $8 today.

It's fun to think about, but don't think about it too much. That way lies madness.
I mostly like it for being completely decentralized. No one controls the bitcoin network. It's a totally peer-to-peer phenomenon. It's a libertarian's wet dream of what money should be. I find that very appealing.
