Look, an early april fool

they can block the ip addresses
Of the whole world?

|
Yup, if you only mistype one character or so, the address will become invalid.
|
|
|
If you mistype a character, then the address will be invalid and you would not be able to send the bitcoins.
But if you send the bitcoins to a valid address for wich the private key is unknown... yeah well, byebye bitcoins

Scrypt? You downloaded a litecoin miner. Also good luck mining if you don't tell the miner on what mine (pool or solo client)

Well, the fud didn't exactly worked well, because the crash lasted like a hour or less

I agree that the download page is a bit unclear right now.
The clients are "hidden" under the symbols and all these ? ? ? looks like clients still to unveil rather than important warning (under mobile wallet at first glance i suppose that bitcoin wallet is ready and there are 2 more clients still to unveil while under web wallets there are 4 clients to unveil)
Yeah BTW, what would you put instead of the ? to bring people attention to them so that they hover with the mouse, see the warning and click to show them? Nothing, i would just put the warnings there, without having to hover/clic anything. I would put everything directly on the page. The clients descriptions and the warnings. The descriptions and warnings are short so they won't make the page too long

This crash lasted what, less than a hour?

so basically if there is a correction, coins will be forcibly knocked down in price? i admit i have a lot of learning about economics to do.
No no no! You are a bit confused about that! When people speak about the correction they mean that the current price is so high that eventually people will sell a lot of btc and the price will drop. And that is a correction

The number of people participating in the Bitcoin ecosystem has definitely increased dramatically in the past few weeks. My node used to see 25-60 connections; it has 120 now. I had to double the bandwidth of the connection in order to accomodate the traffic.
Don't the number of connections depend on your bandwidth?

If Japan collapse like Cyprus, bitcoin will skyrocket. Japan economy is huge, imagine them all buying bitcoins MT Gox will be in the right place at the right moment to cater to that need

Yup, but they are Avalon ASICs. There are hundreds of them in the wild.
The problem are the BFL ASICs wich so far does not exist...
|

As time passes and more and more people get bitcoins, the problem will solve itself.
