Oi, one quick question. To translate the client is it enough to create i.e. bitcoin_es.ts with the language attribute set to "es" and then the contents of the translation tags translated? I've done gettext translations before, but not this system. Recompiling my fork with a half translated locale in src/qt/locale didn't make the language option to appear in the client Settings.

That'll look great.

I took some cues from previous ideas posted here, if there's any reward I hope it's shared.

Edit: Thanks for the tip.

Welp, I'll just leave this here.

NetCoin is a cool name.

Alternatively:

SmartCoin
MarketCoin
TradeCoin

Buy the rumor sell the news etc etc.

Cars are overrated in many developed areas. If you break down the costs taxis and public transport beat them, except for people that really, really need them.

You can already buy "paper gold" out there, for whatever is worth. There's also something called "Digital gold currency" (search Wikipedia).

Circulation -- likely through people with bitcoins buying more stuff with them.

People (usually) devotes only their surplus capital to investment. There's a less liquid base of capital they need for recurrent expenses which they won't trade around. For people in the bottom, when they get more capital they usually raise their expenses, not their investment. So circulating hoarded bitcoins into more hands will make them less traded, and more tied to the supply and demand of goods.

This is not a "redistribution", as hoarders are getting some kind of good in exchange for circulating their coins. It's just, maybe they need a bit more motivation to spend.

So far no problemo. I needed a quick PPC to BTC trade to get something for the girl and had no issue starting from zero.

The only thing that bothers me is not seeing all the decimals in the trade textboxes. Now I have a 0.0000186 BTC leftover there.

In theory PPCoin is inflationary (at 1%), but at the same time it encourages holding currency (which is deflationary).

I would argue that, right now, cryptocurrencies as a whole are extremely inflationary, in the sense that new alt coins are created continuously and seem to become tradeable without much trouble. Bitcoin is acting as the reserve currency, like the dollar to all the other currencies, and most business is denominated in it, but as long as for example PPC is tradeable I could agree to pay anyone in PPC and it would count as a chunk of inflated liquidity. So it's largely irrelevant which/if any cryptocurrency is inflationary. For now the whole system fluctuates depending on what happens faster, more crypto coins created or more new goods competing for them, but once all goods could be bought with cryptocoins they all would inflate as hard as people was willing to accept new chains.
