There's a single download, but the downloaded packages comes with all translations preinstalled. It will ask you which language you want as soon as you try to install it. And you can change it later in Preferences.

That would be similar to using a password, in the sense that you need to remember the name of the file, or else it will be essentially lost. I don't see a real benefit there.

I know this is sarcasm, but anyway.

You can't say that a coin is worth 210 million (or any other value), if 1 full coin doesn't even exist. It's like if I said that the gold planet is worth a quadrillion dollars if such planet doesn't exist.

(emphasis mine)
People say things like this without fully knowing what they are talking about. I had one friend that told me that SHA256 was proven to have weaknesses and that somebody very smart could crack it in minutes. Well, if that's the case, then why has no one heard about such an attack? (And I'm not talking just about Bitcoin, but about any system that uses SHA256 in one way or another).

The algorithm has been proven to be very secure, and so it would take decades (if not more) for someone to even think about a real, useful way to crack it (because you just can't brute force it even with quantum computers without wasting hundreds or thousands of years).

And if suddenly someone discovers an unknown vulnerability, it won't get unnoticed for very long, and there will be news all over the world about a system hacked in such a way.

So, no. Although your statement is technically correct, it's not going to happen any time soon.

Me perdí. ¿A qué te refieres con “cintura para arriba” y “cintura para abajo”? ¿Cuáles son los significados de estas dos palabras?

How about making sodas with different prizes? Like real Coca-Cola or Pepsi campaigns, where 1 in 1000 (or more, I don't know) get a bigger prize. And maybe add one (just one) with a 10 BTC prize.

And that almost is where we diverge. I know that currently Bitcoin cannot be used on its own, but I firmly believe that as the system matures and more and more people get to know it, it will become stable and thus will be usable everywhere in the world, and without having to check USD/BTC price every 5 minutes.

I don't seek to change by BTC back into Mexican Pesos, but rather to spend them directly.

Yes, but what if someone steals it knowing there are bitcoins in there? I think everyone should take precautions even if most people don't know about Bitcoin (yet).

It's not as simple as that. The SD could move and get stuck under your skin so you couldn't retrieve it (unless of course if you do another incision, but that's too much harm, at least for me).

Yes, but it's not recommended to use only one address (for security reasons, so that people can't easily trace your transactions). It's common to create a new address for every new transaction.

The OP is long gone... why is this thread still active?

But the baker has to buy all the ingredients for the bread (milk, flour, eggs, etc.), which also were bought at market value. So, which would be the real intrinsic value of that loaf of bread?

Why would you hoard gold, silver and diamonds if they didn't have value? I wouldn't want stuff just taking up space in my garage.

Yes, but what LostDutchman is saying is that we still convert (in our minds) to USD or EUR to give BTC prices. This is because Bitcoin's value has changed very quickly and we as humans can't cope with such unstability.

But millibitcoin is 0.00X. You can't just redefine SI prefixes. You can come up with new names, if you want.

Probablemente sea un error y el número es +52 55 XXXX XXXX.

¿Y el creador de este exchange no está en este foro?

O podríamos también decir bitmonedas. ¿Qué opinan?
(sí, suena horrible)

Si tienen Java actualizado y no ejecutan aplicaciones web (que es donde los ataques ocurren) tampoco tienen de qué preocuparse.

I thought the whole point of Bitcoin was to get rid of those green dollars.
