Bitcoin to hit $1 billion/BTC by August

The economists have spoken. There is no more refuting it. Soon Europe will switch to bitcoin completely after the Euro hits hyperinflation and the US has announced that they will soon accept payment of taxes in BTC. Russia has nothing that anyone wants to buy, so they are irrelevant, but Japan has promised to start selling Touhou sex dolls and hentai in BTC as well. According to OPEC, all oil trades will be switching to BTC as well.

Why haven't you taken out a mortgage and spent your life savings on bitcoin yet?

Bitcoin is going to hit big when more and more companies switch over to microtransactions. Consider: instead of having ads, your browser just sends 0.000012462678 mBTC to the site and you can load it in eight hours after it has six confirmations. This would be even better for stopping spam email: every time you send an email, you have to pass along 0.00163735 mBTC or else it is instantly bounced. It gives an incentive to run email relays and limits the amount of spam that a spammer can send.
