How does that work?

I think that you say you don't have any cash on you but will send them a few bitcoins later.

They then walk away.

Last time I went to Blush on my lunch break I was warned, very sternly, not to throw coins at the trim on-stage.

I was also told that-

"I'm ballin' on a budget!"

And-

"I'm just tryina' make it hail on 'dem hos"

We're not valid excuses for my boorish behavior.

I have a feeling though that this applies to women who strip over live-cams, and you tip them with bitcoins, though.

Also-

Did you see recently? The CEO of bitcoin was found dead:

You carry them in a virtual wallet, and can pay anyone who has one. Your cell phone to hers, IOW.

FWIW, the Silicon Valley VC types publicly supporting regulation are only doing so to protect the money they haven't lost yet. The only reason for bitcoins are private transactions, any currency is identically capable of being fully virtualized. It was a good idea for 5-6 years of untraceable transactions and money laundering, but the cost was insane - fifty bucks worth of products or services for thousands of bucks worth of bitcoins. It never was going anywhere, 100% hype.
