I like to think that I understand the (hyper)inflationary scenario that could happen because of money printing, and how that would be "prefered" because it is better environment for tax collection. But that is exactly my problem, I can't see how or why there is deflation scenario possible if nothing else, because of ever increasing volumes of currencies. Is deflation possible at this point in time and with todays circumtances ? Who and how can withdraw that kind of volume from circulation ?
I found very little information on these questions : How precious metals perform in deflation ? Do they preserve purchasing power ?
If PM-s double price this year - sell half or hold ? If PM-s double purchasing power this year - sell or hold ?
what to use next for wealth preservation, after PM-s bubble burst ?
What must happen for FED to increase interest rates ? Would it be just a political decision or they "must" wait for something in economy ?

I like this when bitcoin speeds up evolution of something

OP did not write the most important part how did he actually describe bitcoins

i wanted to say that i think price rise could accelerate when approaching 10 usd and if it reaches 9 it will easily get into teens so, we only need to push to 9, from there on, it is self sustaining

I will, but how to transport coins to electrum from wallet.dat ?
can I use raw wallet.dat in mtgox ? I don't know how to extract keys to import elsewhere...

price could never be 9.x for long time like it was just under 5
it would be too much psy-pressure especially if it gets there before 2013.
what was it like for price from 0.9 to 1 ?
so, if 9 then 10+

Probably your block database is getting corrupted for some reason. Maybe due to an antivirus or a bad disk.
The resolution to that would be to try to close the client, remove the blk*.dat files and launch it again (and wait while it downloads the entire blockchain again). Additionally, there is a newer client than version 0.5.2 now as well. Try using the latest ... v0.5.3 I suppose I did delete blk*.dat when I uninstalled it and deleted whole bitcoin folder u suggest I do it again ? I am leaving that one for the end... I don't know how to create an installation .exe for new version so I wait until it shows up at weusecoins It is strange, because it just stopped performing for no reason, everything else on my pc is working, so one of my strategies will be waiting for it to repair itself well, at least nobody is suspicious that this might be some kind of direct attack...

i sent wallet file to my friend, his bitcoin is working normally, and sees all transactions and balance

Why the sensational post title? Clearly you have some kind of connection problem, or a full disk or whatever. You should have http://blockexplorer.com/q/getblockcountblocks. Since you dont, its completely normal you dont see recent transactions or balances. Check your firewall, your drive or whatever needs checking. I just copied the message that is written in client disks are not full I dont need the block count, i need blockchain loaded in my client What should I look for in firewall ? I did not change anything knowingly I don't touch anything until it stops working...

now is the time for that guy that started a thread about buying 100k he should "secretly" do it now, and surprise the market

if it is possible to have total number of nodes in the network, it sure would look nice top 21 addresses by size top 21 transactions of the last block average transaction size in the last block total number of transaction in last block time elapsed after last discovered block and name of the pool that mined it hourly % of the price change from the daily weighted average weekly monthly yearly total sum of all bids and asks on all exchanges combined

yesss btc statistics all in one place here are some stats http://bitcoinstats.org/basically all from http://www.bitcoinwatch.com/and there is a blue-ish site with mostly charts, it has days destroyed, total transaction volume and all that but this new site should focus on dynamic data, so that allways something is changing on the screen
|
|
|
i knew about this one, but it is to static digital has more life to it
|
|
|
that is what I thought about but self standing like http://bitcoinclock.com/with more text and some adds could find a place to be
|
|
|
maybe this should go under speculation, but here t is
I think bitcoin world needs some kind of countdown page, for everyone to see when block reward is going to be halved with difficulty changes taken into account and all that
this could help the hype about its scarcity. It would be nice to see many sites link to it
I have seen the analogue clock, but something digital, with some text about the change.
P.S. it is really weird to see spelling checker warning in the word "bitcoin" especially on this forum

last year, I sent an e- mail to Jim Rogers, inocently asking him for his opinion about bitcoin, suggested him to start looking into it on wikipedia I got the response within 30 hours maybe it was not himself who wrote back, but it was something like an apology for not being able to say anything, because he did not do his due diligence, and suggested to me to take a look into commodities markets for investment opportunities hopefully, seed planted... Now I think it would go much better with Marc Faber.
