Bitcoin is an experimental decentralized digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. this might sound good but for some reason a few country don't want  it and some haven't decided if they want it or not. Iceland and Vietnam don't want to have it for their country and many countries are still deciding.

Do Now 3/24

It is reality show about Mark Wahlburg and how his family used to work or what they did when they were young. In one episode Mark's friends were flying out to l.A. and they left with 20 burgers and when they got to the house they only had 2. It was sort of funny but it was really interesting.
