You are making me laugh about your ignorance, sorry for my pedantry but... if my company in Argentina receives an international wire transfer from a customer in my HSBC account, it will be less money than if I receive the Bitcoins and exchange it via https://bitex.la/ , and deposit it to the same HSBC account. Both process follow all the tax regulations and are legal.
Cherry picking is fun.
Did you transfer money last week? If it had been bitcoin and had been at the wrong time, you would have received less than you asked for.
Bitcoin is a speculative security like product, not currency.
The power of the bank transfer is that you can predict what you will receive.
There is nothing inherent in bitcoin to differentiate it from other currencies that doesn’t allow the same derivative infrastructure to be built out and offered (it already is)
There are plenty of countries with volatile or straight out hyperflating currencies that still manage to trade with the world
Wall St and finance market is 8% of GDP - this is what they do
You have to hold bitcoin on the destination exchange and then buy and sell in the US and on the foreign exchange simultaneously. If you're worried about the price risk for the bitcoin you're holding, you can open a corresponding short position to hedge.
No, I can choose when I trade since I don't have any cashflow issue.
