seems the only viable option is to use html5 like easywallet.
it seems to me the vendetta is actually limited to bitcoin only. square, paypal don't appear to have these problems.

These can be backed up via the company’s website I think this was never discussed - at least not in the explanations i was given. How the private keys are handled is still open to discussion. but a "cloud" backup was not suggested. Bitcoin enthusiasts may not like backup centralization, BTW.
exactly.

A somewhat gold-centric blog/site featuring a Bitcoin-laden Article by Detlev Schlichter, our beloved austrian economist and author of "Paper Money Collapse". That book is sitting right here on my desk waiting to be read. http://whiskeyandgunpowder.com/the-death-of-banks-and-the-future-of-money/A very good take on bitcoin from a macroeconomic viewpoint, full of praise. Go read it !

your nice graphs hosted on dropbox are no longer working. maybe upload them to imgur.com ?

You mention that you will see an alias of the local users on the network and be able to scroll through and pay the right one.
Imagine I am at Joe's Pizza Place and he has his alias set up as JoesPizzaPlace.
Punk ass kid at the restaurant changes his alias to JoesPizzaPIace, or Joe'sPizzaPlace or J0ESPIZZAPLACE.
What is to prevent people from sending BTC to the wrong alias?
that is actually a good question.

while downloading, i got the following warning from my paranoid virus scanner avast home free edition http://imgur.com/G10mpit wanted me to cancel the download the warning means: this file is either very new or very rare.. after download when i started the file i got a similar message, and it wanted to sandbox the installer. i would bet the install would fail in a sandbox. i think its time to get a new virus scanner..

is there a method to query addresses in bulk? like the proposed bloom filter commands in the main client?
and what is the story if a chain reorganisation occurs? how can a transaction become invalid?

what about: brain, filled with skills

get rid of the colors. just black and white like an ipod.
otherwise, nice option.
i suspect the user interface is still "beta" and for developer interaction.

i still remember the bitcoin-qt bug where it stored critical parts of the wallet unencrypted. this went unnoticed because hardly anyone could read the format.
so to solve this, a common, open public format that is easy to parse would really help here. maybe one day also with wallet interoperability.

great! reading it right now.
don't assume just because we find some errors in it the work is not excellent. you face some of the most critically thinking individuals here.

With Julian Assange, Jacob Appelbaum, Andy Müller-Maguhn, Jeremie Zimmermann http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DQghUChYtkThe discussion ist for a large parts about the dominance of the payments industry. at 8:05 [...] just the same as the architecture of the financial system. and what the Cypherpunks wanted to do was to create systems where we could compensate each other in a truly free way where it was not possible to interfere - and with financial issues it is the most dangerous thing to be working on. I mean there is a reason the creator of Bitcoin did so anonymously.

they use these rates for conversion eur->usd: http://www.unicreditbank.si/tecajna_lista/?t=1&id_menu=&language=ENGi tried to lobby them to switch their whole market to eur, since they recieve mostly euro payments. usd seems mainly to be there for easier arbitrage, which provides some liquidity. imo, this is not perfect, since the real market is basically in eur. arbitrageurs will come anyways..

First of all good Job! One of the best Bitcoin introductions i have seen! Similarly, there's no point in raising the ire of David Birch when he's actually doing service for bitcoin in this interview. He gave it some credibility. We don't need to convince him. We don't need to convince anyone. We just need to present the facts.
In the mean time, let's pick our fights.
I think David Birch makes an excellent Bitocoin antagonist. He has a good knowledge of the payments industry, looks "old enough" to be the grumpy old guy, and he does not dismiss it completely. i have also never hear him bitch about the whole "black market" thingie. What he will get soon is the whole point of Bitcoin is not that it is anonymous but pseudonymous and you have to work hard to use it anonymously. (purchase with cash/tor/laundry etc..)
