It's not like it's possible to double spend over 10 confirmations. i dont see why this is necessary.

Built in Escrow system is a nice touch 

Based on their budget spending seems likely they are trying to push for listing on major exchanges. Even in current market strength this means more exposure and potential

There are more people interested in the bounty campaign here, than there are in the project 

You're way behind! POWPOS is old news.

Hi. I finally got accepted into Whirl.
I am selling my private invitation link for 0.2BTC.
escrow accepted, I can go first for trusted members.

The following is a post that imho deserves its own topic, as otherwise it would vanish under
the plethora of pages in the longest thread on BT:


Disclaimer: I have only read a fraction on this list, but what I have read or watched is impressive.
Probably sticky-worthy.

You do not use the funds to purchase or exchange for crypto.

You do use the funds to send them to an exchange, where you trade.

Big difference. OKPay just wants to stay out of trouble.

What a great OP! Assumed there would only be Bitcoin and no Alt-coin, the ideas presented

had even more impact.  I think, that all models for evaluating the value of Bitcoin have to

be build with regard to all alt-coins possessing a maximum amount of units. Early adopters

of Bitcoin are therefore better seen as early adopters of cryptocurrencies with this attribute.


As there is a possible infinite supply of bitcoin-clones, I see the described dangers somewhat

alleviated due to the fact that the market-share of one single crypto becomes smaller with

every crypto newly introduced.


Edit: Somewhere on BT, the topic of human slavery through machines is discussed (gmaxwell's
       ideas on autonomous agents?). Quite interesting, as machines could take over the role some
       individuals are in, today - now that the financial human-machine interface gets build.

I think you are trapped in idealism - no offense. Using money and power, a small group is able to direct events,
even in a democratic environment; it happens with conventional money, it can happen with bitcoins/cryptocurrencies.

In case of Bitcoin, it is conceivable that earlier groups are connected, thereby enhancing their influencing capabilities.
This development is natural, but only as benign as the group members.

So your question becomes more frightening:

What if the minority decides that the majority is only allowed to possess a fixed and known amount of addresses?
(There exists a thread about a dystopian future here on BT, which I still have to read)

Now back to your original question. The idea, that in the future accumulation of wealth is no longer a supreme goal, but self-improvement is, spreads through science-fiction media.
Your thoughts probably match this scenario, as people would no longer care about maximizing/increasing balance on their wallets as generations before did.
Probably it is worth to study the feasibility of a resource based economy (RBE) as it could align with this idea. I have not done this yet.

However, it could be sufficient (or more just) to spread the idea and let everything else follow in line by advancing human behavior, instead of
enforcing it technologically.

Thank you very much for a thought-provoking post.

Among humans, forming communities is common. It can also be observed, that groups come together to maximize their gains solely for this purpose.

China moves down a bit, gox follows. Stamp's orderbook bids a bit thin.

Maybe you can learn something at University of Nicosia (UNic). A master for digital currencies is to be introduced.

resolved?

Have a nice time everybody - Good luck!
I need some sleep...
