Title: Whose face would you like to see on a 1BTC Coin?
Post by: BitBank on May 09, 2013, 01:23:45 AM
My company will be minting some BTC's.. Was wondering if we should do a limited edition run with someone's face on the 1BTC coin.

It would just seem out of place to have a pikachu on bitcoin (as cool as it would be.)
I don't think anyones face should be on it at all,
a ? or B just seem much more appropriate.

Since bitcoin relies so heavily on public key cryptography, I think it would be appropriate to put Diffie and/or Hellman. These guys. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Diffie_and_Hellman.jpg) They published the first paper on public key cryptography.

But best would be to have one without a face, because bitcoin works without higher instances.

No one. Just put something else. An anaglyph like PCB would be way better for a cryptocurrency.

Satoshi ofcourse. Did they finally figure out who he is? Hard to put his face on a coin if we don't know what he looks like.  :-[

Wouldn't a coin inflate the digital coin? Unless there was a centralized bank we could all trust to keep a number of coins in a wallet to be untouched, that is equal to the number of coins in circulation.

Edit:
If a coin is made I nominate Shiva.

15% of the worlds population is Hindu, and 80-90% of that worship Shiva. So that would basically make it the currency of the largest group in the word. Plus, India is pretty hugely populated, and America has recently been accepting some Shiva type ideas (Ex: MMJ Legalization).
