No, the US and UK will make a lot of noise, be ignored and then skulk off with their tails between their legs. This one is over. Putin 1 - 0 Western Drama Queens.
Its not the organisation to deal with this though. Its too biased. That was the point I was making. A point which you have done your damnedest to ignore.
So how would the UN overseeing work if Russia would veto anything they didn't like?
Also resolutions don't have to be unanimous. You need 9 out of 15 votes for a resolution to pass with only 5 nations (US, Russia, UK, France and China) holding the power of veto.
But this wouldn't be a resolution. In fact I have no fucking idea what you are talking about as usual.
The UN has 6 main parts. Only the Security council works with 15 votes and power of veto. The General assembly has one vote each. The Court of Justice elects 15 judges. The secretariat has an elected UN Secretary General, the economic and social council elects 54 members and there is a trustee council which I think is asleep or mothballed or defunct or something. I'm probably wasting my time. You are as dumb as a bag of hammers.
The UN pick sides and is overwhelmingly run by the West.

Which is why Russia has a permanent seat on the UN security council?And as you know would be outvoted horribly by the USA, France, UK et al.
watched and managed by the UN to try to make it fair.How does that make it fair? The UN pick sides and is overwhelmingly run by the West.
To further Thork's argument that it is a commodity and not a currency, Japan is going to treat it like a commodity and not regulate it as well as subject it to sales and capital gains tax, http://techcrunch.com/2014/03/07/japan-government-has-no-plans-to-regulate-bitcoin-transactions-after-mt-goxs-demise/. Though the link does say the UK is expected to declare it a currency.
No. Foreign currencies are capital gains exempt. Trading stock is not.
I can go on holiday, make a killing from a currency exchange rate an no capital gains tax. Trading is different because its the only way a government can tax professional currency traders.
Bitcoin however always attracts capital gains tax, once the threshold is met. It isn't exempt in any way like foreign currencies. As you are lazy, I will quote for youQuote from: http://www.capitalgainsallowance.com/capital-gains-tax-exemption/There are a number of different assets which when disposed of, never attract capital gains tax, because the assets themselves are actually exempt. Examples of this include the foreign currency you purchase for yourself or your relatives whilst spending time abroad
andQuote from: http://www.capitalgainsallowance.com/capital-gains-tax-exemption/this transaction will be exempt from capital gains tax, so long as two conditions have been met. These are that the gift is not a form of trading stock which you have purchased for the purposes of reselling
The main point being your deposits are protected ... which they aren't with bitcoin as many bohemian investors are finding out.
One in the hand is never worth 2 in the bush.
There are thousands. Below is a list of the banks in just the UK. Yes, we have 5 massive banks that are on every high street, but we have hundreds of independent one branch banks. Mom and pop banks if you like. Most cater for high wealth individuals because most people just want to be able to use a cash card in any town, but if you want to put your savings in a small private bank, its no problem. You'll likely get better rates of interest too.

You also have hundreds in the states.

Not at all. I'm saying that, from Russia's perspective, they're not illegitimately invading another nation. They're protecting the legitimately elected government from an unconstitutional coup.
Wow. Bitcoins are being stolen all over the place. I guess storage isn't bank level yet.
Hey Rushy, is Flexcoin a safe place to stash my bitcoins?
On the other hand, never mind.
Then why did you bring up dividends when bitcoins were compared to stocks?
I'd like to know what exactly Russia have done that is illegal, that the US didn't do in Iraq, Vietnam or Afghanistan? Somehow the perception is Russia is doing something illegal. What exactly?
I also see the US threatening to kick Russia out of the G8. I wasn't aware the US was in charge of the G8?
Also, just wondering, whose side is China on? Unlike us, they seem to be minding their own business as usual.
