Eric I have to tell you that the airlines are the least appreciative businesses when it comes to customers in the world in my opinion, so that might not have been a glitch.
The designation of XBT seems huge to me. With gold closing at $2,037.48 an ounce on Friday and XBT at $11,500 or more right now. It's pretty clear that it needed to be classified. Five times more valuable than the precious metal that has been known for centuries to represent wealth around the world speaks loudly.
Did you catch that the Japanese government said they are looking at releasing their own digital currency later this year.... in conjunction with the USA and a few other countries?

XBT has these central banks and governments really frightened in my opinion, and rightfully so. Not all crypto has to be at the same value as XBT to have worth, just like all metals don't have to be as sought after as gold.... silver, copper and even scrap iron have value too.

One thing that no government can do is the "transparency" with their digital currencies. That is where the decentralized currency has them over a barrel.

On a different note, aren't these types of blog posts the must enjoyable to write? I love when I can just do my Saturday "housekeeping" Dashes and HIVE giveaway.
Have a great weekend my friend,
