This would be absolutely awesome! It means that all the fiat currencies have ceased to exist and there's no reason to exchange BTC to any other currency; hence closing down all the trading platforms That's one way to look at it, I guess... nice one!

Ah yes, The Mystery chart. Yes, I agree this is interesting to follow. We'll see if it was correct

Plus, with Electrum, if you take the time to get into it, you will discover some nice features. One of them for example, is the possibility to have a mirror wallet: you can have a cold storage wallet on an offline pc; install Electrum on a general network-connected pc; and still be able to see your offline stash. This newly created wallet will only have read rights, no spending is possible.

Quite possible, as they seem to be the subject of some thrilling romantic novels:

I would go for Multibit and/or Electrum... Pleanty of features & very reliable

But wouldn't that imply that someone / something was in control the entire time? (ie: not completely decentralized?)

Many experts in finance say there will be two jumps. One in June-July and the second one later in Fall 2014, similar to what happened a few weeks ago. So basically every half a year it jumps.
Care to point out which experts please?

For those folks who know how it works and seen open source, this is not even funny and not scary at all. There are to many independent miners who support the network and keep it running. Every bitcoin-qt wallet holds all the history of transactions. There is technically no way to "shutdown the experiment". Even if this was an experiment, it's running and working and people will be using the growing network of us miners for very long time.
True, but I'm not saying that the experiment wouldn't evolve into something else (some form of continuation, perhaps slightly altered)

you wake up and you would start visiting your usual hangouts (bitstamp, mt gox, bitcoincharts,bitcointalk,etc and on every site you visit, instead of the usual info, you would be greeted by the only this message: "The Experiment is over. Thank you for participating"Would it blow your mind, or might there be a small chance that you would have thought this possibility might have existed? I know this sounds very much like some crazy conspiracy theory (and I'm not suggesting I believe this conspiracy); But I can't help but wonder if someone is using this as some large-scale Libertarian experiment. Wonder what other people think about this?

Same for me; I also expect a live and let live attitude of my government Like this for example? http://www.coindesk.com/belgium-central-bank-remains-positive-bitcoin-unofficially/News that the Belgian Central bank will allow Bitcoin to continue as is without further regulation? I live in Belgium and it takes YEARS for any change to be made to any policy* so this is great news. I predict Belgium with Brussels, the capital of Europe, will develop a strong Bitcoin network and community. *EDIT: for example, Belgium has a very high rate of income tax, but you do not need to pay income tax on rent from private residential property. This means that in theory I could own 20 houses each rented out and not pay any tax on this income at all! This is something that people have been saying the government will change for years, but it has never happened and will not happen for years to come! Things move slower here in that respect.

The meltdown continues, the china syndrome is in full swing. Most people still unaware of what's happing.
I like the term "China Syndrome" And yes, a lot of people are still unaware. I read an article in printed media today saying that Bitcoin is crashing due to the ban on sale of mining equipment in China...

I never get tired of these very well substantiated (and very well sourced!) informative Proudhon posts You guys are crazy. As sources have clearly demonstrated over the past few days, bitcoin is done. It's reached its maximum usefulness and user base last year. 2014 is the year of the slide to complete obscurity and failure. The confirmed bad news of the past few days has made this clear. Get out while you can. Bitcoin will never see new highs again, this is confirmed by sources close to some government officials in a few countries. Just google it. Sources are in Chinese, of course, for anyone to read and verify.

To avoid further escalation of accusations, it would be good to provide below info... Soniq, we have requested several times a statement of this GB, which should include: * BTC mined * Name coin mined * cost incurred and details/breakdown of this cost * sum of dividend payouts * BTC per share
I believe this has nothing to do with the programmer. Since several weeks this information has not been provided. In fact details of cost incurred have NEVER been published. We do expect that operation of this GB is transparent but it has NOT been so far.
BenTuras has requested a few days ago the excel file with calculations to help out with script for dividend payouts, but this file has not been received (yet).
If the calculations are not ready, please provide a target date by when you intend to share all details - have asked this before as well but no feedback (yet).

Only if the Bull shall entertain you such, but before then you must ride the trip down in to despair during the ascendancy of KARHU! Woe befall's those who worship the Bull or false idols at this time. Even Hodler's will pay their dues in the trench of capitulation, there are none so faithful that KARHU cannot break.
Are you reffering to Karhu Beer, or am I missing something?

Where are the permabulls??
Do you mean hoarders? I picked $7000-$8000. It's HODLERS now, get with the program On topic: don't know why, but for the first half of 2014 I feel like we'll be staying at the current price point (600-1200). Second half? who knows...maybe rise up to 2000. *DISCLAIMER: This is a gut feeling, based on nothing else than the sandwich I had for lunch*

No it is not. You never now who is on the same network as you / or what is being logged. VPN is a valid protection, as your traffic is encrypted from the start (so the hotel can't log anything, except your connection to the vpn endpoint)

This book was given away for free a couple of weeks back, I'm sure you can still find it out there somewhere: http://www.totalbitcoinsecurity.com/It has a nice and thorough overview of the most safe methods for dealing with your btc (no, I'm not the author / seller; I just picked it up for free and found it very informative)

'Coinye' is obviously a better (and more future proof) choice of name.
You want his baby girl starting her life with a lawsuit by an angry black guy?
