Gypsies in Kaluga Obninsk decided to sell bitcoins on the street on the wave of a general fascination with crypto-currencies. This is reported by Znak with reference to the community "Typical Obninsk".
The woman told the community that her husband had been deceived by the "intelligent kind of gypsies" near the local Aksyonovsky department store.
The husband bought 2 pieces for 1 thousand rubles, came home, it turned out, a fake and they can not be sold. The seller insisted that they are constantly becoming more expensive and in November you can earn several thousand on their course, "the woman said.
The idea of releasing physical analogues of crypto currency originated in 2011, when little-known Casascius coins appeared, containing a cryptographic key printed on a piece of paper and covered with a protective film on the coin's reverse. With his help, you could access the wallet and spend the face value of the coin.
However, physical carriers contradicted the very idea of the crypto currency, so the project did not take off. Perhaps the gypsies sold one of these already emptied coins to the trustful obnintsu.
