Thanks for the suggestion Prozet!  I like that idea, I'll put it on my todo list and probably have it up in the next two days or so.

Nice name you got there. Has it been used for anything yet that you know of?
Also when is the expiration date / renewal due for this domain?

Remittances is one of the big markets for big coin, and I absolutely think it can work. There are lots of people that work in wealthier countries and send money back home. If bitcoin were to see wider adoption it would absolutely dominate this space.

Yes they seem to be using it as a way to appeal to the younger generation.
How many politicians do we have now that accept btc? 3?

Can someone explain what he means by "reliance on third parties"?  Is he referring to the fact that bitcoin requires nodes and miners in order to transact? Or is he pointing out that most people use 3rd party wallet providers?

"Could it be a serious competitor to bitcoin?"
Who knows maybe, it would need to gain a lot more followers for it to do so. I kind of like the sound of Ethers as a currency unit.
The thing that more and more banks are starting to realize is that "is crypto-currency a serious competitor to fiat". Absolutely!

Using bitcoin to pay your taxes in Australia?!
Is the Aussie government getting the FOMO, so this is their plan to collect coins?  I'm thinking maybe.

Nice looking blog, clean and easy to navigate. All your articles are showing under "uncategorized"?
Keep up the good articles!

A little bit of everything is a good combination. The signature campaigns are a good consistent income. Faucets can be fun, depending on which ones you go to. The best way for earning still is working IRL and buying your bitcoin each paycheck.

Forum rank != credibility BUT
I agree with you that supply and demand will lead to a higher price, but I don't expect to see anything crazy in 2016. Once we get closer to 20 million is when the fear of missing out will hit.

Are people just throwing out random programming languages?
Why would he need Python PHP and Perl? These are all server side languages, you'll likely only need one and not all three.
Ruby is all purpose and can be used for both client and server side scripting.

If you want to LEARN, you should start with the easy ones, HTML and CSS. Once you have that down begin Javascript and PHP or Python.
Once you know those 4 HTML, CSS, Javascript and PHP/Python all future languages will be that much easier to learn. They start to become very similar and you can start reading code like reading a book.

This will get you started with a dice site, if you are going for a full blown casino with graphics you'll need a team for sure.

The dice portion has been restored after fixing an exploit that caused my faucet hot wallet to be emptied, twice. The exploit allowed certain malicious users to bet more than their available balance 

People that might have spent a few hours trying different things probably don't want to share their work for someone else to pick up for free and solve the puzzle before them.  I for one, am terrible at these kinds of puzzles. Good luck!!

Good link for newbies there litecoinguy. There area lot of new words and concepts to learn for most people when starting with bitcoin.

I'm pretty sure that litecoinguys post wasmeant to be tongue in cheek and he didn't actually think that newsweek was right.

Like others have mentioned already blocktrail and blockr.io are some other block explorers that you might want to try.  I find blocktrail to be a little bit overwhelming with information sometimes. And then there’s the cool Japanese block explorer (chainflyer.bitflyer.jp), I especially like how they use little keyholes to represent a multi sig transaction.

The value could be vastly huge! You have to consider panic buying as time goes on and we start closing in on the 21 million cap. Fomo could send the value through the roof

It is unfortunate I agree. But there were too many auto-clickers and bots bypassing the math captcha.
A few bad people ruin it for everybody else.

Sorry I'm at work,  can't do much from here

Whoa, thanks. Big bug causes that issue. You should be fine now and I added 20k to your balance for the troubles
