We have aggregated the top and most widely used Bitcoin debit cards from around the world. This list has been updated as of December 2016. These cards should be fully functional for 2017.

Some of the Bitcoin Shirtz team members use the Shift Card detailed below. The Shift Bitcoin debit card connects to a user’s Coinbase account and is relatively easy to use.

At Bitcoin Shirtz we encourage everyone to use Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as much as possible. This is in contrast to using state created fiat currencies that constantly lose value and help fund wars around the world.

$2000 Bitcoin Is Coming, Says Kim Dotcom

by Will Long | Dec 30, 2016 | Bitcoin, blog, News

Kim Dotcom is predicting the price of Bitcoin will rise to $2000 in 2017. He covers how and why in a few recent tweets:

Who Is Kim Dotcom?

Kim Dotcom is an internet entrepreneur who is famous for founding the website Megaupload. To which he reportedly made $175 million from. Megaupload was simply a website that allowed large file transfers between users. In January of 2012, Kim Dotcom’s house was raided after the US Government, New Zealand Government and Hollywood accused him of copyright infringement via Megaupload. This happened one day after the Stop Online Piracy Act died in the US Congress.

Kim Dotcom’s real name is Kim Schmitz. And he is dedicating his life to fighting for internet freedom.

Governments undermine human rights, destroy freedoms, censor the internet. Kim Dotcom is an innovator who is fighting against government terror. As a result Governments are attacking him. Currently Kim Dotcom lives in New Zealand, while the US is tries to extradite him on charges of racketeering, money laundering, and criminal copyright violation.

These charges are nonsense. If you want to understand why intellectual property (IP) is bad for innovation and humanity as a whole, read Against Intellectual Property by Stephan Kinsella

How Bitcoin Will Reach $2000

Kim Dotcom believes that his new project, Megaupload 2.0 will launch the price of Bitcoin to over $2000.

Megaupload 2.0 will outsource file-hosting and prevent take down abuse. Bitcache will provide a new and improved layer of encryption and micro-payments using Bitcoin. Both Megaupload 2.0 and Bitcache will launch January 20th, 2017.

Bitcache purports to be a blockchain-powered method of attaching Bitcoin microtransactions to file transfers. Other endeavors have sought to intertwine the two in the past, with last year’s release of Joystream, a torrent client which pays users for sharing files in an effort to stabilize the distribution of files. Joystream works by creating a market for consumer bandwidth. Conversely, Bitcache will underpin the second version of Megaupload. The general purpose of Bitcache will be to attach a value to every file download as well as protect user privacy through encryption.

Megaupload made file sharing possible for those who had trouble making use of torrent applications for various reasons. Various internet service providers around the world interrupt torrent traffic, but since Megaupload transactions took place over the HTTP protocol, they would have worked in many cases. Dotcom seems to believe that Bitcache will provide a similar mainstream appeal for Bitcoin. Users downloading files through the service will become familiar with Bitcoin in that they will apparently need to acquire it to activate downloads.

10 Wild Bitcoin Facts You Need To Know

by Will Long | Dec 24, 2016 | Bitcoin, blog, Facts

Welcome to the Bitcoin Shirtz Blog! We found a video covering bitcoin facts so we thought we would focus on the 10 most wild Bitcoin facts. We will include the video at the bottom.

10. Bitcoin Basics : Bitcoin is a digital currency that was created in 2009. It operates on a peer to peer network. Digital wallets are used to send and receive Bitcoin. Bitcoin has no central authority, so the price is set by the market (supply & demand).

9. More and more people are transacting with Bitcoin. You now buy tickets to space with Virgin Galactic (Sir Richard Branson’s Company). Lamborghini now accepts Bitcoin and is the first car company to make this bold move.

8. The Bitcoin supply is finite. Bitcoins are produced and enter the market through a process called mining. Mining is the process by which transactions are verified and added to the public ledger. This ledger is known as the blockchain.

7. The value of Bitcoin is volatile. That means it varies given the market forces. However, the price of Bitcoin continues to rise as it proves to be one of the best ways to store and hold value. The more people realize this, the more demand will go up forcing a price increase.

6. Not everyone fares well in the crypto market. Sometimes you make a bad trade. Other times you have poor security and your account or exchange is compromised.

5. Governments do not like Bitcoin. It operates without a central control. They do not understand blockchain technology and therefore do not know how to regulate it.

4. The maximum amount of Bitcoins that will ever be produced is 21 million. The production rate is cut in half every four years.

3. Nonprofits rely on Bitcoin for donations. Wikileaks is just one of these companies.

2. Bitcoin is used as the main currency in black markets around the world. The Silk Road is one of the most widely known black markets that relied on Bitcoin

1. Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? We still have no idea. Satoshi Nakamoto is the name used by the unknown person or persons who designed bitcoin. They devised the first blockchain database. A monumental accomplishment for mankind! And we still have no idea. People thought is was Michael Clear, then Dorian S Nakamoto, then Craig S Wright. But again and again the evidence falls short.
