Im feel so harshly for your loss, But i've devoted my efforts towards helping Another at this moment.
I wish you all the best. This is Terrible
I'm helping friends that lost everything in the floods of Tropical Storm Washi. I hadn't heard from them for over a week. Sending money is all I can do. I'd rather be there to help. I wish you the best. |

The executive producers of this show are not the right wing fear mongers used during the 43rd POTUS administration. This may not be the FUDstorm I once expected. I'm now predicting that the show will either get cancelled, preempted, or up against the [nearly] undefeated Green Bay Packers and be unseen by anyone without a DVR or Hulu.

It's Monday December 26. Was it cancelled?

I like how Bitcoin makes a virtue out of necessity. It's not tangible per se either, but it's an important counterbalance as a collective creation of capital out of nothing that can give the power back to people again.
The chickens have come home to roost. |

The other aspect is that the economic underpinnings of bitcoin are fringe and esoteric, and the in practice application of it as a currency is clunky and, well, not very practical (I'm being honest and stating my informed opinion--not trying to start a flamewar!). Don't underestimate how much of a turn-off that is for the vast majority of developers and business people, who probably have real-world experience using e-payment solutions like Braintree, WePay, Stripe, or Square, or were trained in Keynesian economics.
You are accusing Satoshi of not having your 20/20 hindsight? So it seems like your basic criticism is that Satoshi is not a Keynesian. Check out the the genesis block that contains: The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks Time will tell if Satoshi was right. The disruptive part of the technology is not that it is Austrian-based, it really is not. Bitcoin has emergent properties unlike any of your aforementioned examples or anything previously tried. Sure there are alternative experiments and I hope they succeed, but they won't take anything away from Bitcoin's simplicity. Besides, Bitcoin has a ways to go until v1.0. |

Red and green are always poor choices, despite their symbolism in the financial world. It does make it hard to pick other colors. A large percentage of the male population is red/green colorblind. It's one of those things to watch out for when you are presenting things...kind of like yellow text on a white background.
TL;DR - I'm jealous cause I'm colorblind.
There is something poetic about Bitcoin being the red/green currency that so many people don't see because they are blinded by disinformation. |

I wonder if it's possible to have a price stamp on the block along with the timestamp?

http://www.americanbanker.com/the-scan/the-scan-friday-december-23-2011-1045137-1.htmlWe remain fascinated by this digital underground currency and the endearing subculture of dollar-distrusting libertarians, cryptography geeks, and earnest entrepreneurs that's blossomed around it. There's been a lively debate in the blogosphere about whether Bitcoin poses a serious threat to the established monetary and banking order and what value it brings to those who use it.

We should have some nice t-shirts printed that say "I Use Illegal Bitcoins." Bumper stickers, posters, the whole works.

The only thing that's missing is a rainbowed alpaca flying across at some point to disturb the black and white a bit. The B/W signifies it's digital. The repeating patterns represent the continuous rhythm of the block rewards. Maybe I'm reading too much into it.  |

Maybe even a chant the OWS folks can mic check.

I wonder if that means the experimentation will only happen with brand-new blockchains, and if a blockchain will only really take off it the inventor manages to "get it 99% right" the very first time...
You are right that there has been little innovation on the Satoshi blockchain. Bitcoin is like concrete, it gets stronger over time. Form follows function. Bitcoin has unique traits that fill important needs. Tools can be invented to exploit these traits. Necessity is the mother of invention. |

Go home use backup copy of wallet to transfer funds of 2nd wallet into a new one then purchase a better handgun (or assault droid all depends which century we are talking about).
Maybe the next iphone will have a built in derringer. |

You could always do the hollowed tooth trick and break the cyanide gas capsule taking the torturers with you. I think I saw that in a movie somewhere.

Bitcoin doesn't discriminate, it follows only the laws of math and the guidelines given to it by the network, and it is passively open to the entire world, making it potentially one of the best debt consolidation utilities in our century. That's all it is though. It takes money to move money and the only way it could assist in decreasing poverty is by increasing opportunity.
Other than that, Bitcoin is not the cure for cancer, governments, or reptillian congressmen. Sorry.
I totally agree with you, thanks mate. This one is the best answer to the question. If you totally agree, then could either of you explain how Bitcoin is one of the best debt consolidation utilities in our century? |

I just don't understand how it is useful. Then again, I don't really get Elliot waves either.
Ditto. If it had a white background it would look more Christmassy. |

It's certainly a strong support mechanism for an underground economy. Many poor people are forced through circumstances to stay underground. Until we address those circumstances, Bitcoin can help ease poverty for some.

Could we make a card with the public key visible and the private key only visible under UV or some other obscuring scheme? I'm thinking a card like this could be "charged up" via the public key and then the private key could be swept in a more secure environment to make purchases.

I'm guessing that your working on the sweep private key function. I'm starting to like this cash card idea given that we may soon see a global financial reset. We'll need a new system that's ready to go.

Congratulations on getting accepted. I'm an Android user, but I'm sure this will be a welcome addition.
