I'm thinking of on the spot property verification for any disputes someone may have, for example, after a divorce , roommate dispute , stolen biked etc. Just something that would dissuade someone from bringing up false disputes between acquaintances.

I had this great idea, if people signed off on their property with a encryption key, theft could be detered by encryption. When someone buys something the store would sign off their key to your name with the blockchain. A mini block chain for property rights that can be signed off when given to someone else establishing a line of ownership that would be indisputable, I think andreson has been working on a way to prove who the ownwer of a private key is. 

So what do you think, how can encryption mitigate property disputes ?

1 satoshi per kb should bé enough to start à little experiment, then up it to 1000 satoshis see what happens.

Amazing you guys have just gamefied réal life, bitcoins by achievement, incredible.

I am truly impressed with with your article, it hits thé nail right on thé head. 

For some local convenience is King, with email money transfers but what id you are in jamaica? Outside of thé western banking system? For a tourist having thé security of bitcoin at your disposal could be à matter of life and death. Plus there are free trade agreements being forged right now, in a short while you will obly havé to worry about shipping when buying exotic goods direct; hell with bitcoin you can guarantee delivery with multi signature transactions with thé shipping company as escrow.

Thé world has just gotten a little smaller and a lot more exciting.

I suspect they are pärt of a government backed unit, i simply can not believe one person could do this they had help from a lot of  experts. Considering the front end spoke perfect english, a us or british unit. The psycholigy was to build a simple sound but flawed design to draw people in of a specific psychology that would adapt it to mainstream use to introduce a new paradigm

The program is causing interesting evolutionary pressure, expanding the cypherpunks movement into the mainstream. The development of asics by enthusiasts, the necesities of higher connection speeds, the use of fpga chips, a dialogue is taking place in this community about what money truly is, the design of economic systems, the technology and cryptography techniques being used, the regular adoption by people a system that is completely open except for basic privacy.

I can forsee the construction of terabit internet connections to manage the emerging resolution of data caused by the blockchain technology, further advanced in hard drive technology, fully distributed systems will be created for things we cant even imagine, and the information being as open as it is dets a new standard, what if all government, businesses were forced to be this open just to be competitive? What impresses me the most is that this is the first development of a emerging internet nation with its own currency.

But why would they leave? So silent so quiet, disappear.
maybe the experiment demands it, i thought about the effect, intentional or not, as a godhead they are in control,but if they disappear they become a teacher, a portal to new paradimes; if we never truly knew them they become a mirror of ourselves for we can only understand them through our reality.

How do you not envision yourself to meet such an ideal and not create it?

When they disappeared it was like an explosion of creAtion, the bottle neck was
removed, there was no one to check our work we had to truly understand it now.

They planned this whole thing out from the beginning, we have free choice, but what if they knew what we would choose?

This is töö perfect, maybe we should be asking; what is the ultimate end game?

I somehow see this being converted into a Anime dramatic scene with back turning and fist pumping: BFL AMV.

Thousands of them generated by your wallet dynamically and encrypted for immediate distribution face to face, unlockable on receipt of transmission; the dynamic constrution of an off chain mini network. I believe adam back has already devised a method somewhere here on the forum.

Remember what has been going on with feathercoin for the past while, they've been attacked by a 51% attack, it forked their client and started orphaning everyone elses transactions.


What are the examples from other Cryptocurrencies do we have to observe real world effects?

We have had the examples from the banks since ancient times: denominated currency devised into useful amounts. You have a licence to print your own money. Have we not become our own banks thanks to this technology?

Begin printing BTC1 .50 .25 .125 .0625 .03125 .015625 or any subdivision you can think of, the key is that no transaction would ever need to go through the system if we exchanged barcoded paper denominations of bitcoin; like proof that you have btc in the bank redeemable at anytime over the network.

Just imagine a world where a phone is a wallet with multiple digital denominations that are simply exchanged from phone to phone; what is the transaction limit on that?

The network is ultra secure. but we can definitely shave off some time down to 2 minutes would be way faster.

It would actually quintuple transaction maximum from 400k transactions per day to 400k max every 4 1/2 hours so we would have a daily transaction maximum of 2 million.

now if we consider that we will be cutting off modem users from the network and also people with slow connections it will cause an evolutionary pressure to upgrade, bonus. having that extra time for them does make it hard to overcome the network with a lightning fast propagation time but... if everyone has a gigabit connection then we would be increasing the confirmation security over the same 10 minute time period. the same hashing power in a smaller block time frame, statistical increase in security by the number of confirmations, the greater amount of hashing power will overcome anyone even with only 2 minutes of slack with a 25mbit connection.

and yes the authorization can be done instantaneously for paying for coffees and stuff, and it also makes it hard to do a low cost(sub $10) double spend attack within two minutes, those fast food places better have small lines.

So do we just add suggestions for inclusion at the site?

 How would we do this then? Agressive anti-social people exist in every echelon of society. You have garden variety Cons that steal/lie/cheat/manipulate regular people out of their money with no accountability then you have the ones that vie for power to gain a further upper hand against you through the system.

 These people know how to use the system very well, They rob through lies and persuasion, soon to leave your life leaving no paper trail to have them account to; Some con the welfare system/churches and any charitable organization that is willing to hand them money; Others have become professional cons dealing and wheeling through the legal system knowing the exact amount that human minds can be bent and manipulated to avoid getting near those purported laws.

 These people are absolutely remorseless and will intoxicate you, limiting your thinking ability, Distract your attention to do things behind your back, make illogical arguments to trick you, trick you into taking all the risks that the legal system has to deter individuals, Basically confuse you and take advantage of your ignorance in the cruelest way possible and when they are done with you, they will throw you away waiting for the next chump to come along. And i'm not even mentioning the ones that have the extra backing of authority.

 The whole system we have now is so convoluted and confusing we need lawyers just to figure out if we can jump yay high in designated areas... how do we fix this? Can Bitcoins technology solve this without revealing someones identity?

why not in protest, create the greatest open source communication device ever devised?

OpenCoin... Maybe? Where everyones texts, phone calls and data shares are logged in a giant public ledger for everyone to see? You'd have a encrypted key for an address and you can have as many as you like, you can call anyone for a minimal fee but everything you say gets recorded on the ledger for everyone to see.

I'm serious, if no one cares that the whole western world is being spied on, how many of us would be willing to use such a service? Who needs national spy agencies when joe and jane blow off the street can monitor us to make sure we aren't talking to the wrong people?

There are always willing travelers/tourists who need to exchange money, it would be a good idea to advertise on localbitcoins.

you have the pesos, they have BTC, good trade.

The best way of course is to mine, after all, If you have a good used video card it is time to start mining; Do not mine litecoins! you will earn far less than just mining BTC directly at this moment.

If you mine with a 5870 for a month you will earn guaranteed 120 USD. if you mine litecoin it will be 40 USD.

Then distribute the BTC to the people for the calculated cost of inflation and your exchange fee. NO illegalities, no hassle, just time and a little effort.

Yup, I recommend just making a paper wallet and save it for a big purchase then discard the wallet.

Considering that the CIA did invite Gavin for a presentation says something.

Has anyone considered that Bitcoin is an inside job? The CIA is learning from it's developers and leaves it alone, the government is forming regulatory bodies for Bitcoin, The NSA probably built it themselves and the only people
without clearance are the FBI because, well they're the FBI. Just think of the Silly things the FBI has said about it," people may use it for funding terrorism! yes, they most definitely will, but not to worry, we have their blockchain address."

Bitcoin will not survive.

It was not designed to, it is only an experiment to test the waters; The real global champion will
be the one that rises from it's ashes, better, faster, stronger: Anti-fragile perfected.

We are already seeing the emergence of a true world government by the people for the people and for
that the first shot is establishing a currency that no nation or corporation can control. You can almost
say that Bitcoin is the internet nations currency an underlying web that connects everyone in the
planet now with a currency to match.

Smile and wave, we are the new Boston tea party.

that exchange that people are talking about, who cares if it is illegal? If it's useful people will use it and
even those who wish to stop it will see the ideology behind it and they will make the same mistake they
always do, enforcing it by the point of a gun, taking away ones logic or their life. silly rabbits tricks are for kids.
