The problem isn't BitCard or my way of running it or my way of marketing it, it's these folks on here that think their BTC is going to go up so they'l hoard it and not do anything with it. It's bad for business'.
This is ridiculous. If people like your product better than coins they'll give you coins for it. Is your theory that every bitcoin business has failed and every one in the future will?

You can't have a "free market" and then cry when the free market kicks you in the crotch and takes your lunch money.
Um, part of the free market involves figuring out what happened and who is good and bad to deal with. It isn't magic paste.

So this one time I thought about selling people some crap they didn't need and including bitcoins to entice them to buy it. Needless to say, this is the good version of that crappy idea. Should be very greatly appreciated by many.

Someone I trust told me they had part of a trade reversed two days ago on MtGox. Coins were in account, then not, trade was at a reasonable price, like $6, only part of it was rolled back, said something like "error in trade matching".

Well for what it's worth, I dealt with BE.cc about a month ago (I'm sure I posted in this thread a few pages ago) and I can say that BE.cc is not (or was not) a scammer and I did get my coins, but BE.cc is slow to respond and ship out your coins once you place you order. Plus I felt cheated because after placing my order, he didn't send the coins til like 2-3 days later when the coins went up like 25%. All in all it took like 4 days to get my coins. However, with the amount of bad complaints, the long time it takes for him to even check back on this forum and the time it takes to process his orders, I would say just go with someone else now. I think he waited to sell my coins and is not going to pay me unless the value goes back up.

Who is stopping you from creating your own forum with such a feature? But that's beside the point. The traffic to this board decreases every day, and the trolls will eventually move on.
That's a moot point. Forums and social communities are natural monopolies. There is little reason to move from an established forum over a single feature addition. What the hell are you talking about? I'm in like 5 forums at this minute. Would you call power provision a natural monopoly if my computer, heater, and washing machine were all powered by different companies?

The remaining questions are 1) what does the endgame look like, and 2) does anybody care?
In the venture capital community, there are successful startups that achieve over a 10x gain, and failures that go bankrupt. But those aren't the most common case. The most likely outcome is a "zombie", a company that generates just enough revenue to pay their operating expenses but has no hope of paying back their investment. VCs usually have a stable of zombies, which they view as annoying; they need attention, but don't make money. The founders often continue to dream of a big win, and keep trying to get more investment capital.
The endgame for Bitcoin will probably look like that.
Bitcoin has been dropping about $4 per month for three months now. With the price at $5.80 today, the end is in sight.
Just a month and a half until I can buy all the coinzzz!
