1. Good question. Someone else can explain better. 2. Make sure your descendants inherit your private keys. The coins will live on. 3. Don't bother voting at all.

We need to do a better job of education. Somewhere along the lines a little physics wouldn't hurt. Apologies if the OP simply has not gotten that far in highschool yet.
Uh? On which part do you suggest I should get educated?

I think bans do scare the weak hearted bitcoin investors, and as soon as the dust cloud settles down everything returns to normal.
I'm not interested in those people. Of course you can make some short term money with BTC (for believers, gaining FIAT on the back of BTC feels a bit dirty), but if you understand cryptocurrency you can see a completely re-structured global society. (PS. I think the porn-industry could really boost actual usage for cryptocoins in a way SR did, hence the SXC reference. )

We need to replace the current centralized internet with a P2P networksystem (encrypted). ASAP. BTC will not be complete without it. I don't understand why this isn't talked about more on the forums. I mean, it's what the namecoin, peercoin and anoncoin together could almost facilitate, right? Now how are we gonna send/transmit to each-other without the cablecompanies, the domainname-bosses etc.?
Second, we will need to generate energy (magnetically f.i.) and replace centralized energysystem. This should also power the mining hardware and infrastructure. I can also not understand why people are still whining about power-usage difficulties for mining. Just get your tech up to parr.

Has the government ban prevented you from getting weed?
Indeed. Bans don't scare anybody. Focus should be more and how can we use it differently other than trading it for FIAT to get rich quick or holding it 'till the apocalypse is over. We need actual uses for BTC. Maybe the Altcoins could play a role in this too. Shame to see cryptosextoys temporarily not accepting Sexcoins anymore. Stuff like this is what's going to get it going. Actual uses for all the decentralized, anonymous, instant, worldwide characteristics of our precious coins. LOL, I hadn't thought that far. But yes, even if you dislike weed it could be the alt-coin you need to purchase bitcoin.
How could anybody not love weed? It's the bitcoin of plants!

Great stuff, both bitcointicker and listentobitcoin.
They remind me of listen.to, but for BTC.

I'm having trouble making a decent ROI forecast, personally.

Do you think it will sell out in 24 72 hours?
Pondering buying one too? Seems like they're still taking pre-orders.

Nice. Esp. the cult-like mining logo's

Free energy is available right here on Earth, no need to send miners towards the sun. Just hook your mining device to a free-energy generator.

BTC It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas BTC

A friend of mine spoke of this last week:
People are discovering more and more other uses for the Blockchain, apart from storing the world's transactional data. He said it can also assign 'property' to different users, making a lot of legal people (expensive middle men) obsolete. No one has to prove his/her possesions through legal people, because the blockchain can simply be read and it could tell you instantly who the owner of said possesion is.
Anyone know about any studies of the possibilities of the blockchain?

Sat ready to PrintScreen the momentous occasion of the first $1.000,00/BTC tx.
Make a note: $1.000 accomplished, only few weeks after China Yes, i see! Awesome. Ironically, i was typing another post somewhere and missed the moment.

Does it make sense to assume someone might have done this?
Yes, bot network are sometimes used to mine. But one problem, when mining the CPU (or GPU) is used to max, so obvious fan noice scare the user and this is way how to loose infected computers from your bot network Good point. Though a restriction of max 50% (when available) might solve this. And project different CPU-usage nr.'s to UI.

I have a feeling that once it crosses the 1k mark, it will take some big leaps up. (After some tugging around 1k first, which will be exiting to watch)

It probably exists:
...a piece of code that, without people knowing it, uses CPU & GPU power from many people at once to mine BTC. Thus creating a pool of possibly millions of computers, all generating blocks without even knowing it.
We've seen incidents such as the high-school IT-guy secretly using the school's computer network to mine. If I could code such a thing I probably would have. Just like the NASA-system works, where you can sign up to let your simple home-computer help searching space. Hell, maybe people would even sign-up voluntarily to help mine BTC through such a network.
There's probably less incentive for such a thing as the difficulty has risen compared to a couple of years ago. But
I had the idea at a time where having a USB Block Eruptor would have made someone a millionaire.
Does it make sense to assume someone might have done this?
A while back it was calculated that a CPU mining bot net was using about $600,000 worth of (stolen) electricity per month to create about $2000 worth of Bitcoins per month. Interesting! Do you have some more information on this, how this was calculated? Have they also calculated how many BTC's were mined by this bot net?
