Title: The Daily Bitcoin Demographics -1- Are you a geek? Post by: Pygy on May 14, 2011, 11:58:34 AM Hello,
If we want to attract more merchants it is important to determine the demographics of the Bitcoin owners (they need to know who to target). We can actually guess some of it, but it would be better to have real data[1]. To that end, I'm going to run a daily poll from now on. I've chosen an obvious topic to get the ball running, but the usual demographic suspects will follow. Happy voting! See also: The Daily Bitcoin Demographics
If you found this information useful, you may send 0.5 Btc to 1LScbdyGwwM4cRd3KwUgM2CQje63H2yHS1. [1] I'm well aware of the shortcomings, limitations and biases of this type of polls, but I still think it's worth it. Title: Re: The Daily Bitcoin Demographics -1- Are you a geek?

Is a geek someone who runs Linux by choice? Or do they have to live in the basement and rarely emerge? Do geeks need to be in their teens and twenties, or can someone in their 50s or 60s be a geek?
