I don't think bitcoin is ready to be accepted in normal stores. I mean, i don't think you're gonna wait an hour until the shop has confirmations on the transaction you paid with your phone?

It would provide good anonymity (depending on how you treat it ofcourse) and protocol obfuscation. Bootstrapping into the network could be done better and more decentralized then.
And ofcourse, just because I2P is cool by design somewhat, like bitcoin.

Depends on the userbase, if your underground economy is huge the price will be high too, if it's 100 people, it will be very low.

Only a fool would sell a 5970 for 25 bitcoins right now.
And how's that...? You get the same amount of purchasing power exchanged at the time of purchase. Greed is a bish aint it?

Now that most ISP's use DPI it's very easy to monitor/block bitcoin, or any protocol for that matter. If there's trouble in paradise we need full encryption and protocol obfuscation, either natively or by using I2P or alike.

looking good nice to have another exchange

Hopefully exporting and importing specific keys will be an option soon.

Obvious troll is obvious... We should really stop feeding them every time a post like this pops up...

Yes, i know it can be done much better... just wanted to do a quick shop.

Ah, so OP gained reasonable potential wealth by adopting an early experimental system, believing in it, investing in it, and so far it has 'paid off'...
Nothing wrong there, if you feel so bad about it, please tip me.
I really don't see why a certain group has so much problems with early adopters gaining wealth, they could have been there too if only they did more research or dared to invest or whatever. It's an argument out of pure jealousy i'd say. (in your case im just completely missing the point...)
The features will come over time, remember bitcoin is still young and in development.

ok ok... you're right, i was being selfish, i'll just send you all my bitcoins for free.

Ever stopped to think what resources are consumed by 'normal' money?

----------- 11,406.22 50.00+ 0.09+ 150.00+ ------------- 11,606.31
(top two are from the post above, my friend threw away his 150 btc, just cause he thought it was stupid and useless xD)

I'm curious how the talks with the people went
|
|

So what if bitcoins become expensive? it won't be at all like giving all your money to the early adopters, you give some early adopter 1000$ he gives you a bitcoin, you purchase goods or services worth 1000$ using that bitcoin or trade it back whenever you see fit... you don't lose anything by it and early adapters gain some wealth, a very few maybe a lot, so what, nothing compared to govt institutions...

Eventually deflation will calm down and not double value overnight

Why-o-why do i have the feeling that OP is just another troll... The amount of trolls/anti-bitcoin-fanatics seems to be growing equally exponential aswell... Just google for bitcoin scam and bitcoin ponzi and things like that, you get a LOT of websites telling how stupid and bad, complicated and illegal bitcoin is... Not sure what we can do to clear things up for those people...

Im not sure if this is to be trusted? I sent a few coins to the app but they were never received... (or maybe the programmer received them?) Any other experiences?
Did you try refreshing by clicking on the "Check Balance" button? Where would i find this button? on the main screen it shows "Balance" with nothing under it, and two buttons, scan and receive. (scan gives a qr-scanner, and receive generates a qr code) (download link here: https://github.com/downloads/bitcoin-labs/bitcoin-mobile-android/bitcoin-mobile-android-0.0.2-SNAPSHOT.apk ) So far it doesnt seem to work, i tried sending the money back, it told me it sent the btc, but they were never received on my pc... so i dont trust it, or maybe im missing something important...
