I agree with most of what you said, but the biggest interest to me is the experimental features people are adding. Clearly Bitcoin could use some improvements, but the core team is intentionally making slow progress to keep the ecosystem stable. Can't even imagine what the crypto scene is going to look like in 3-5 years Smiley

I had no idea there was another Bitcoin Meetup. I just created one on Meetup.com:

Let's kick it!

Maybe they realized that Bitcoin users who are serious about carrying cryptocurrencies around on a tablet were going to switch to Android. The Blockchain app is back in their store. http://www.wired.com/2014/07/blockchain-back/?mbid=social_fb

They are too late for me.

I already bought an android replacement for my iOS device specifically because I needed an easy way to carry bitcoins around and Apple was blocking bitcoin wallets.

They lost me as a customer and aren't likely to get me back anytime soon.  I'm probably not the only one.  This was a big mistake on Apple's part.  Perhaps Bitcoin is still in the early adoption phase, and they'll be able to capture a lot of future business, but I suspect they'll feel the pain of their decision for a while.

I feel you on that one. Apple's decisions sometimes just utterly baffle me. Guess that's what you can do if you have $100B in the bank...

After being bit by the Bitcoin bug lately, I decided to start a Meetup.com group and wanted to share. Perhaps it'll interest some of you KC folk. Turns out there's quite a bit more interest in this stuff than I realized.
