Haha. You better get an accountant.
Why would I need an accountant. I am the one giving away my bitcoins as gifts. |

So did this actually ever happen?
Looks like it will be next Thursday. |

Bitcoin will be worth over $10,000 by the end of 2016.

Bitcoin will be inflationary for the next 100+ years.
I have discussed this at length and it simply isn't true. The problem with #1 is that bicoins can be permanently lost, and there is a hard cap on the amount of bitcoins. That means that there will eventually be more bitcoin lost than are generated by block reward. This should be known as the 'Sweft point' where bitcoin turns into a deflationary currency from an inflationary one. Thus, to believe that transactions will increase as coins are lost, aka deflation, is not a sound proposition.
Please read. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=12109.0Bitcoins that are lost still exist. The fact that more bitcoins are created means their amount of bitcoins is inflating for over 100 years. |

I guess Mother's Day is in a few weeks.
Post some good ideas of what to get mom this year using bitcoins.

I e-mailed that link to her. She said she was going to use it but found this: Update - 4/25/2013
Thank you all for checking us out. We are currently working on restructuring our payment backend to be in full compliance with all government regulations. We will be back up as soon as all our ducks are in a row.

Gifts that are exempt from income taxes: - Gifts that are not more than the annual exclusion for the calendar year ($14,000 per recipient for 2013)
- Gifts to a political organization for its use
- Gifts to charities
- Gifts to one's (US Citizen) spouse
To anyone I give bitcoins to...that is my gift to you. |

We would need a logo like this:  |

I e-mailed her some ways of getting by on just spending bitcoins. With bitspend and the ability to buy so many things online in San Francisco it should not be too difficult.
The spin of the story so far is "oh my gosh it's such torture having to limit myself to only using Bitcoin...not yet ready for public use".
The headline could also read "Someone with very little knowledge of Bitcoin tries to do things most experienced Bitcoin users do not do, with no preparation."
The wired magazine guy who did a story on how to disappear at least was given some lead time to prepare.
The Forbes reporter could have ordered a starbucks card and a bus pass and used bitspend to top them up as needed throughout the week. Could have ordered an OKPay card. Could have ordered a pre-paid phone with cards that could be topped up.
She could do a month easy by taking a week to get things prepared.

In 2011 Silk Road was about 80-90% of Bitcoin transactions. Today it is closer to 20-30%.
Illegal transactions are actually a good thing, it shows that the system works.
When the government is going home to home confiscating weapons and bibles you will want a currency that can buy things the government does not like.

You forgot to add this to the poll choices:
"Centralizing bitcoiners goes against everything bitcoin is about."
Lemme know when you've added that so I can vote for it.
That is why I never go to Bitcoin meetups. A small group of people getting together is centralization. I am such a big Bitcoin supporter that I check the localbitcoins map and try to find the location furthest from everyone else to help with Bitcoin decentralization. |

Those same people are pessimistic about all new technology and will be in the same boat for everything in their lives.
The thing is, most of the early adopters did not just buy a few thousand bitcoins and then just sit back and wait. Most of them played an active role in getting Bitcoin to where it is today.
Those people complaining could easily put in the same effort into something else with the same amount of people putting in the effort and reaping the rewards.
If the same people that created Bitcoin had put the same effort into curing cancer and benefitted from the sale of the cure those same people would be complaining about those greedy cancer curers.

I am working on HeliumCoin. It has 4 times as many coins as FeatherCoin. So it is even lighter.

He is openly laughing at us.
Sickening.

if you openly talk about the bonus army thing in the U.S, most likely nobody will give a damn. If you openly talk about the Tiananmen Massacre in China, mostly like you will be in for some big problems.
Maybe because the Chinese people would actually give a damn. |

I believe they reduced the default fee in the latest client release. But it would be up to miners to accept/reject/delay blocks with too low of fees.

This is a really profound issue. E.g., I am not sure what the implications will be for Chinese Bitcoin users If someone includes a link to "the reality of Tiananmen incident" somewhere in the blockchain.
Bitcoin is already illegal in China. And what is the big deal about Tiananmen? http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=dWvCCxOUsM8 |
