I'm aware there are duplicates. Credit will go to the first poster when I dig through the names for the poll.

Incredible.

I cannot wait to see this finally running full-steam.

Wish I'd noticed it when it first appeared in May.

Hmm. I guess you're not aware of the banking scandals of late?

Banks, at least the bigger ones, have NO problem with trampling all over federal laws; they pretty blatantly launder billions in drug money every year, and only get slaps on the wrist for it. I can't see fear of their lapdogs being the reason they aren't giving dispensaries bank accounts.

Micro- is already well established as being 1 millionth, so I couldn't really give you credit for micro-bitcoin, sorry.


Also, might as well throw these in here...




I'll let this one stand apart from Lorem's name, above.

Oddly enough, mine are pretty evenly distributed among a variety of offline storage methods, so I can't really give any one place where the majority are kept.

But my primary *preference* is Mycelium, both for spending wallets and for cold storage on dedicated phones (with Mycelium-generated paper backups.) It's just that good.

They're afraid it'll cut into their profits from laundering drug money from heroin and cocaine from the cartels.

Still, it's cool to see Matt Miller get on-air kudos for his research into bitcoin.

1) A couple years back I experimented with brainwallets, and decided to test the concept by memorizing a long key to be hashed, and destroying all paper copies of the key. The key wasn't tied to any of my passwords, or any other information I would have access to. I *intended* to recite or write down the key regularly, but, well, let's just say that bitcoin is forever lost now....

2) A couple months ago the boss needed some computer software he was having a hard time finding. I checked bitcoinstore.com, and saw they had it, and offered to buy it from them (I knew their delivery times were awesome.) I never use exchanges, but the plan was to spend the coins that Thursday evening, then that weekend while traveling, use localbitcoins.com to buy more, since I'd had plenty of success with them. Bitcoin had been steady at about $120 or so up until then. The NEXT DAY I saw the price had jumped. I totally crashed and burned with localbitcoins that weekend--no one was free to meet (that, or they all just wanted to hold onto their coins,) and I wept as the price crept over $1000 before I was able to acquire more. Six bitcoins worth of software bought, replaced with a fraction of that. Never again... from now on, I get the replacement coins FIRST.

For those who missed the edit in the OP: I cranked up the timescale to get this done by the end of next week. I honestly wasn't sure what kind of response I'd get, but it seems worth finishing this sooner rather than letting it drag out!

Name submissions must be in by midnight, CST, January 4.



You'd get credit for it.



It'd have to be 10 satoshis in a moto, but the name is yours.

This one was surprising.



Sounds good to me.



Hmm. Got a link to that?

EDIT: "mics" as a name for the 0.0001 BTC unit is taken

I really want to +1 this just on sentiment alone, but we've probably skipped past "civilized" to "domesticated" in this country... we just happen to be somewhat free-range.

(Also, yes, 12-31-13 annoys plenty of us here too....)



Cute kids, but I'd like to see a news article before sending any coins to that address.

Worth keeping an eye on, anyway.

*cough*

(Had to.)
