Can I trade in?

10k Dogecoin for Unlimited ingame dogecoin?

No. All Dogecoin in the server is real, so if you deposit 10k, you get 10k.
So, basically, you can just spend them on the server? You can't convert them back in dogecoins?

You can withdraw funds with the /sendto command, everything is liquid.

After 3 years of anticipation Zerocash has been finally released! The network went live over a week ago.

Are they an improvement over BTC's? If yes, in what way?

If I understand correctly. Bitcoin's transactions contain addresses and amount, which are pushed to the blockchain. zerocash only doesn't contain the addresses or amount, but are still checked by the blockchain.

Which means it's more private, and absolutely no one will know who send what to who. They just know someone send something, and didn't spend it twice.

Skirmant, you're alive?! Nice to see you here old man!

I still have 0.4 bitcoin - it is now worth 20% more than when I bought it 3 years ago. Not a huge gain, but not bad. Hopefully Z Cash won't cause my precious bitcoin to die  ;D

Hey Charlie, it's nice to know you're still holding on to your stash. It would of been a good idea to buy the dip while it was bellow $200 two years ago though.
ZCash doesn't really directly compete with Bitcoin, but with other anonymity focused altcoins. It's unlikely that it will effect Bitcoin's marketcap anytime soon, but it's still an interesting project and potential investment to keep your eye on

i swear these 1st world countries......the way i see it, they'll stop at nothing to make the movie surrogates a reality some day if they keep this shit up

Not until the fraudulent activities exist since bitcoin's main customers/buyers are those who work under cyberbase or those who sell private info to a client and ofcourse credit card cloners/sellers :) and the remaining customers just use it as forex purpose and for illegal trading.

Things mainly brought using bitcoins are shells, hacked rdp , cvv datas and similar things which are useful for frauds, you can even score tiny drugs like MDMA to mother of drug Crystal meth and ofcourse they will be delivered at your doorstep (websites can be accessed via TOR browser only), some eCommerce clothing websites accept BTC but they charge too much compared to normal currency.
This virtual currency is not useful for your age people since you got nothing important to do with it.
