Nonsense. It is used by less than 1% (< ~71 Million). In addition to that, there is no accurate way of measuring the usage of Bitcoin either.

The first things that come to my mind are:
More spam, more account farming. Without a way of dealing with these problems, I disagree with the idea.

Nobody said that you can't price at it what you want, however that does not affect its value. You can try to sell it at $10k if you like, but that won't change the fact that it is worth X. This is why I wanted to see other auctions, in order to see whether this price can be justified. In order to not clutter up your thread further, please PM me if you have any information about other past sales/current ones.

Good luck with your auction.

Netocno. Online walleti nisu uopce sigurni, i oni koji misle da jesu, nemaju pojma o cemu pricaju. Iz vise je to razloga: 1) Reverse engineering; 2) Isto ranjivost na programe koje ste naveli; 3) Sansa da ce doci do nekog 'hack-a' (read: Inputs.io)  Stovise, imas primjer osobe koja je dozivjela gubitak novca drzeci ga na blockchain.info (u ovoj sekciji). Sto se tice zlonamjernog software-a te desktop clienta, to mozes samo da pokupis ako is 'average-PC user' ili gore.

Nije prakticno osim za 'storage'.

Imam ga ja, ali ga nisam otvarao tako da ne bih mogao mnogo reci o tome. Ali za 'manje-do-medium' kolicine novca, je sasvim u redu (naravno ovisi o definiciju kolicine).

That does not justify a $500 premium. You do realize that there are certain things that are very rare and worth pretty much nothing? I'd like to see an example of 'the market' and other sales of the first edition, because if there was interest and the price was right, at least someone would have put a bid on it.

You don't need to understand it in detail. Simplified:
It updates every 14 days and can increase a maximum of 14 points (if you make => 14 posts in that period).

I disagree with this. If anything, they are trying to divert attention away from Bitcoin by promoting their own 'blockchain'-related ideas.

There is most likely always going to be some sort of con(s). We just have to weight the pros against them. You can't really 'step up your game' as a required amount of time needs to pass in order to achieve the Legendary rank.

They usually do, yes.

Using blockchain technology does not imply using Bitcoin. You have to reform your question.

Using blockchain technology != using Bitcoin. I don't see how the usage of blockchain technology (especially since they can't properly define it yet) is going to have an affect on the price of a single Bitcoin.

What is supposed to justify the price of ~1500$? The rarity?

Knowing Satoshi's identity does not have an effect on whether Bitcoin has a single point of failure or not.

Correct.

That is what makes Bitcoin as strong and resilient as it is. Unless they're able to shut down all the nodes and mining operations at once, it will continue to operate.

I don't think that it does. Why would it?

Why not? This does not make sense. If Litecoin development ended right now, the system would still remain functional (for example).

There is nothing useful about having that option. It just adds unnecessary colors to the forum. I disagree with this one as well.

I think likewise. Similar applies to the Croatian section (although it is a bit more complex due to other EXYU languages). It clearly states "Hrvatski" as in the language, not "Hrvatska" as in the country.

The main problem is that the very signature participants are constantly bumping up the threads of signature campaigns. This is why it seems like there is a flood of them.

It won't be affected by volatility because it will be instantly converted. IIRC Valve has stated that they would not be holding Bitcoins at any time.

Yes. Correct.

This is how it currently looks like. Obviously, there might be changes especially after the update. I don't see how that is 'much simpler'.
