This.... is frightening.

Yeah, I'll look into that.

Crap. I have elbow warts. Count me out.


Also, to tease you a bit: what is this, the video game industry? We announcing announcements now?

I don't have too much to say, but it sounds like a good idea.
Showing a company that "25 BTC have been pledged to you, if you begin to accept bitcoin!" or something like that might be compelling for them to begin accepting it.
As a slight twist, I think the big companies should be petitioned, but you're right that Bitcoin will probably be accepted by the little guy largely before the big guy.
I am willing to bet several companies will find themselves risking obsolescence by Bitcoin-based start-ups before they accept it

Here's a comment: if you're the first to allow clean, user-friendly crowd-sourcing via bitcoin -- I see bright days in your future.
Lemme know if you need an extra dev or whatever. I forked you.

Tears of happiness roll down.
SO PROUD.

I feel like a smart enough wallet client could solve this problem entirely, using many of the above suggestions -- most importantly crypto
I'm a dev... I'll think on whether or not I could make something that works for this purpose.

Geez! These are fantastic.
Wallpaper'd!

Actually, I solved it. Turns out I had indeed told it to try mining.
Nevermind.
Would delete thread but I can't; turf it if you want, mods.

I see a few threads posted about this by other users where bitcoin-qt wallet takes up nearly all or all of the CPU usage available.
I'm not mining or anything, to the best of my knowledge. Is there some way I can tell it to cool it?

Yeah, I'm seeing it take all my CPU too

Great miner, thanks!

I saw "millies" and "mickies" somewhere and that works lovely for me.
I agree with an earlier poster here that calling it after someone living -- who isn't pseudonymous, to let Satoshi off the hook -- is too weird.

+1
Thanks for the list
Did you use a program or do this by hand?

I think we can go broader than this.
What about an action website like the EFF has too?
And street-team sign-ups for various physical packages containing either print-outs for free (bookmarks, pamphlets, posters) or merch for BTCs (t-shirts,etc.)

If a magic man approached me today and told me "Yes BTC will prosper as long as whatever fiat you choose." I would dump every penny today.

No. Not necessarily. The price of gold fluctuates and it's been around way longer than Bitcoin may even survive to be

We need more legitimate ASIC suppliers.
