This could become big news!  |

It will give all the doubters and haters in the press something to complain about, so in that sense it is bad news.

20.4 BTCMy goal is to own 210 which would be 1/100000 or one hundred thousandth of the total Bitcoin production. That would be cool  |

Because of BTC inherent nature to encourage hoarding, perhaps the best overall solution to encourage spending in BTC is for merchants to offer discounts for customers who pay using BTC.
- Due to the way BTC increases in value, merchants can be almost sure to earn back the discount multiple times.
- Consumers are given more spending power because they have discounted goods and are encouraged to acquire and spend BTC.
I have already offered my building services in France for a discounted price and the reaction has been pretty positive. The client won because he got the work for 10% less than if he'd paid in fiat and I won because the BTC price has increased over the cost of the discount making it cash positive for me.
So maybe discounting goods and services in BTC based on BTC future value is what is needed to encourage spending.

I know in the depths of my heart, I'd take the shot and die if it was the only way to protect my son.
For anybody else I'd take a risk and try and kill the person pointing the gun at me.

Could this be the killer app? |

I'm not an expert on computers but doesn't the brain wallet provide a unique output when somebody inputs random typing like......
3903450EFZDFZOJF3405340F9ZDFF034T038TGERPJEPRFP034FZEFZEF03450324534508ZEFZOFJZ ELFJ345
In other words it would be unlikely anybody else would type that exact code in and get the same brain wallet results?
As Dan said, humans are a bad source of randomness. For example your string above fails on several levels - you are using only a very small selection of characters from the available keyspace - there are several repetitions of sequences From the line above alone I can conclude you most likely use a keyboard with french layout. Your left hand was hovering slighty above qsdf, your right hand was hovering over the lower part of the numpad, you moved the right hand over to the alphanumeric keys twice (once in the middle of the string and once near the end), you were subconsciously typing on the right hand with a rhythm of thumb-ring finger-index finger (producing the oft repeated 034 sequence), similarily you subconsciously used a rhythm of ring finger - middle finger - index finger with the left hand (producing the ZEF sequence) Impressive deductions! |
