I find it nice to code listening to soundtracks from strategy games, such as StarCraft or C&C series. Also, I've had a coding night with this looped: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ecvLRxb3MU
It was... Fun.
But usually I just put all the music I have on my PC in my player and set it to random.

Yeah, seems reasonable enough.

...I believe this easily could be it.

Just curious, what's the song? Youtube says it's not available in my country.

I just noticed that I have a lot of different addresses for receiving and that they seem to appear on their own from time to time.
I'm interested, why is it happening and how do you guys usually manage them?

Hello. My name is Yuri, I'm from Estonia. Been hearing about bitcoin for a while.
Now just mining for fun (I know it does not pay off, but I don't really care right now) and watching the show.

Ok, so I guess, bitcoin has a limited lifespan even in the best-case scenario. After the 21 mil will be generated, it will be only a matter of time, before bitcoins will become too rare to be practical. It could take decades, but it's inevitable.

Perhaps after a 5 year period, all accounts that have not been in use can be wiped and a short mining period can commence.
Seems like a reasonable way, but is there actually a way to check this?

Hi everyone. I have been thinking about BTC a lot lately and I've spotted an interesting problem.

Suppose, we have a not too bright newbie, who has started mining for bitcoin in a pool, had got something about 1-2 BTC and did not back up his wallet.
Now, suppose that something happens with said newbie's computer and his hdd gets damaged beyond repair. This leads to him losing his wallet and the bitcoins, as I understand.
The blame for loss is on the newbie, naturally, but this situation also is a problem for the whole bitcoin-community, because the bitcoins are not only lost for the newbie, but they are lost from the system as well. And as the system is programmed to have no more than 21 million bitcoins ever generated, active use of bitcoins will make situations like the one I described, inevitable and will mean, that the number of bitcoins will slowly decrease over time.
I would like to know, if there are some mistakes in my theory, and if no, is there a way to compensate for the loss of coins?

You really should attend to the forums. They are flooded with spam.
Oh, and please, do give a message if you actually are working on the project.
