So you send the sender a padlock, and then the sender locks their stuff with your padlock and sends it back to you?

If Bitcoin hits $1000, I will try to attract a small group of freedom-loving Bitcoiners to buy an island that's big enough for us all, and on which we can install high-speed internet. ... like the Free State project. I've wondered about the feasability of doing this ... Some of these smaller Islands only have a few thousand residents, the outer ones sometimes less. If a group of "free staters" showed up in numbers they could just make the the place its own nation, zero taxes, gold/bitcoin, internet private banking, poker servers, etc .... then what they get blacklisted as a 'non-compliant country' ... so what? There are fully inhabited islands around the world, if you want. But all controlled by governments. I'm a bit skeptical about this idea of "taking over" a country with immigration. I think people would react badly to that. Nationals may easily turn against you. They'd see this as a foreign invasion. Just buy a couple mansions on a mainland nearby for everyone. For people really interested in not dealing with existing governaments at all, if you get like the-IMF-borrows-money-from-you rich or somthing, perhaps you could invest in research for developing means to guide underground magma flows so you can grow your own island (after Sealand they changed the rules so you can just build soil for your new country, but i guess if you had your own volcano lair in the middle of the ocean that was created the same way many accepted sovereign lands have, they might have a hard time coming up with an argument against your own sovereingnity(sp?), and if all else fails, you can hold the world hostage anyway since you now can make volcanos grow into their comercial centers and shit *raises one eyebrow and sticks a pinky in the corner of his smirk* |

How long does it take usually to accumulate one whole 'coin with the statues?

I imagine in some cities there might be lots of bicycle couriers that would appreciate the additional income and won't worry much about what the contents of the packages are

Some day people will pay in nanosatoshi  Is that even possible? I thought a satoshi was the smallest increment of BTC possible in the code, i.e. .000 000 01 BTC It's my understanding that all it would take would be to update the client to handle more decimal places; there is no inherent property of Bitcoin that mandate we stop at the eighth decimal place.. I suppose you are right, but would everyone accept the change? It seems like if you make any fundamental changes to the client like that many people will be distrustful of them? Also, it seems unlikely that we'll ever need to do that. Eight decimal places should be enough divisibility for any sort of future I can imagine. But who can tell... And 640KB will be more than anyone will ever need... |

I wanna ask a question to people that aren't the makers and others that have a direct interest in making this popular; can i trust this binary to not clone my wallet or secretly spend the 'coins in it?

What percentage of the would be miners out there have access to only low end GPUs or even CPUs?
|
|
|
|

My hashrate is 'round 24.4 MH/s (seems the average somtimes reaches up to 'round 30 somtimes, but most of the times i look at the miner proggie it says it's going at 24.4 MH/s), which mode do you suggest for me?

What i meant was whether it was a secret kept from me or if i was among the people that could access it (been answered by PM anyway)

Oh, right, the difficulty scales according to the processing power avaiable, i forgot that detail

If the governament is dedicated enough they could provide subisides(sp?) to AMD to research new approaches to chipmaking that will produce chips that perform poor for Bitcoin but good for games

What about when we need to go further than the 8'th case?
|
|
|
|
|
There are alternatives that are about just as good with games and stuff
