Are there any adoption numbers? What percentage of the population has already collected their coins?
34682 claims. so slightly more than 10%. |

US goverment is in the possession of more than 5% world supply of bitcoins  Surprising. Scary. Not was bitcoin was suppossed to be ... I don't think that's scary at all. Should we in fact transition to a monetary system with BTC playing a significant role (say 1 BTC = $200,000, for example), the government will still have no problem spending their stash in a short amount of time... what's next? A fiscally prudent government? I'm all for it! |

Have we collapsed yet? Because I don't sense the urgency. Why won't BTC cooperate?
Just watch and be patient. certainly the urgency is killing me. |

That's right, they should give us a small update, and explain firmware and or security issues if they exist.
There will be an announcement next week. The only thing that is holding us back are the plastic cases. Firmware is ready for quite some time, but there will be a small change on myTREZOR wallet because of the newly accepted BIP44 ( https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0044.mediawiki) I like how many BIPs came out of your project. Thanks for sharing and developing in an open way! |

Jesus, gweedo. Come down.
The device is real and awesome (I have one of the developer units). If slush and stick don't post here, there's probably nothing important to say and they and the other people helping them are probably putting their energy into solving the remaining issues, which I prefer.
Have some confidence and patience... The device will not become less useful over time.
But you agree that it is bad practice to annouce a certain deadline (ETA~) and then without much info, prolonging that deadline for months? I think that is the issue here mostly. yes, I agree that is bad practice. I'm quite sure it wasn't intentional, though. |

Thanks! Confirming this works. Finally managed to get the 31.8 AUR How secure is this against people trying to game the system? |

..... And also at least everyone knows that all the negativity to come will be you talking your book I'm trying to remember more than three members, who post here regularly, who aren't talking their book. True in general, I post here a lot what do you think my position is then based on what I say, I'd be interested to see how right you are. TBH, I haven't paid much attention. I tend to bet bored by the ad hom attacks and skip a lot of what I consider nonsense. I'll go back a few tens of pages and try to determine your position. Fair enough? talking ones book and putting ones money where ones mouth is are two sides of one coin, no? |

i think Multibit states that there are 250k active weekly wallet users.
That number seems rather high to me. How do they even measure it? Do you have a link to the source? They count the number of distinct weekly pings of the running software checking for updates. That's a sane way to do it. I'll accept that number into my worldview. |

Gibts hier eigentlich was neues, oder is die Sache eingeschlafen?  Verwende die Skripte für mich selbst (allerdings in gegenüber der hier veröffentlichten Version nicht unerheblich weiterentwickelten Form) Ich habe mich dagegen entschieden, die Geschichte zu einem Produkt zu entwickeln, als Service anzubieten, oder auch nur ordentlich zu Dokumentieren. Zu aufwending. Könnte mir höchstens vorstellen eine Art Hands-On-Workshop dazu machen. Es gibt allerdings mindestens einen, der sowas ähnliches gemacht hat und in benutzbarer Form anbietet. In diesem thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=321503.0 ist davon die Rede. |

How difficult could it be to attach a keylogger to his computer while he is out for a frappuccino?
Karpeles, after all was extremely intelligent and was ultra-careful about the security issues. And he was in to programming ever since he was just 12 years old. Do you think it will be that easy to steal data from such a person using a keylogger? Wait. If he was "extremely intelligent and was ultra-careful about the security issues", then how do you explain the devastating pair of hacks in 2011? and the trade engine lag that never really got fixed? and the crappy code that was exposed in the end? Schizophrenia? |

9,75% claimed of the premine?
This downtrend can go on for months.
I won't buy in before 60-70% premined coins are claimed. How long will that be?
lol. before that happens, the next round of the airdrop will commence and the 9.75% can claim again. pro-tip: go away. |

The problem ist to prove that you have the coins more than a year. Thats what people in germany discuss in other boards.
It's not a problem. There are different ways to do this (without using the blockchain) that work well enough in many cases. I might have to move to Germany at some point (free travel within the EU anyway) but I'm not sure when the one year will commence then. From when I bought it or from when I moved country? I'm pretty sure the time you bought it. It doesn't matter where you sell it (or against which currency) either. The gains from my selling BTC on gox back in the days for USD, for example, also counted. I think (except for US citizens), individuals usually pay their income tax in the country they live in, no matter where in the world the income happened. But I'm not entirely sure on that stuff, maybe someone else can chip in? |

As long as governments benefit more from modern slavery (which is what fiat money truly is), than from a form of money than is immune to outside control, they will not adopt BTC. Russia or even places like Iran or Venezuela may have their problems with outside powers, but even for those countries fiat is still essential in extracting labor from their citizens. On top of that Uncle Sam would probably "find" some weapons of mass destruction real quick if a country adopts BTC as a currency. Heck, look at Iraq, when they tried to adopt another fiat than USD (EUR). so much relevant truth in one post EDIT: however consider that in the end, the government really has no say in what is used as money by the population. If they extract labour from the population under decreasing living conditions for too long, they might wake up, come to their senses and exert the power they have. A dangerous game they play. Also a dangerous game the US specifically plays, by the way, misusing their exorbitant privilege like that (for those who don't know the Charles de Gaulle speech from '65, it's a must watch) |

was just saying to someone on reddit i find it unbelievable, literally, not believable that BC community would have paid 25btc
well, they're doing it for bitcoin for free. Otherwise they wouldn't have a product. Or did I misunderstand? btw, their ceo (I guess) Rodolfo Novak is in a pretty cool documentary about bitcoin in french. |

- Volume on online exchanges is way too low: getting 2 million bitcoins is near to impossible
- Therefore the price of one bitcoin needs and will rise, so less bitcoins are needed. But this only happens because of the one time instant demand, and likely pops afterwards. Not really a safe storage of value, when 50% of your Francs are happily converted from bitcoin again in fiat by all the current bitcoin holders.
I disagree: if you buy 2 million bitcoins over a certain period of time x on the exchanges, I am pretty sure the price will settle well above the starting point and not much below the last buy you make (maybe even above, it'll overshoot quite a bit after you bought your 2 millionth coin). It would be so much fun to execute. Mr. Putin, I'm ready to help. |
