“# Bitcoin payments are the ‘second stupidest idea I\u2019ve heard,’ says Late Show\u2019s Stephen Colbert <\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

Stephen Colbert, the charismatic host of CBS\u2019 The Late Show, isn\u2019t holding back his punches or his jokes when it comes to Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

In a segment dubbed \u201cQuarantinewhile,\u201d which features a roundup of amusing news<\/a> stories for viewers to watch while stuck inside, Colbert referenced<\/a> a recent report from Vice in which hackers took<\/a> control of internet-connected chastity cages \u2014 devices worn by men to prevent them from engaging in any sort of sexual activity \u2014 and demanded Bitcoin (BTC) to unlock them.<\/p>\n

\u201cGetting paid in Bitcoin? That\u2019s the second stupidest idea I\u2019ve heard,\u201d said Colbert with a chuckle, implying the first would be:<\/p>\n

\u201cApp<\/a>arently these people hooked up their dong cages to the net and then they got hacked […] Of course this is going to happen \u2014 it\u2019s one thing to give control of your deprivation box to a loved one, but it\u2019s quite a leap of faith to say: let\u2019s put my junk up in the cloud.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
