P2Pool, if you are not a moron of course.

They are not going to do shit. They barely have money to stay in session. Plus, stopping bitcoin is a global effort, good luck organizing that.

Hello, I am a regular miner guy, have been around BTC for about a month now.
I've been reading a couple of threads that contained a lot of bullshit.
I ask you to white-list my username so I can let authors know when they are wrong.

Not sure, what you are trying to say...
If it is a mistake to play by the rules here, why put them up in the first place?

Thanks! Keep them coming, always nice to see what other people think...

Cool, thanks for your thoughts!

One comment... You are saying that starting a new bitcoin is an alternative for those who distrust the first one.
I think you are implying there exists a possibility for creation of a competing currency.
I do not think there is such possibility, the only competing alternative are the currently existing currencies.

Here is why...

Do you realize that the amount of resources that goes into making the bitcoin is pretty significant? (Like I said my interest is a technical one)

For an alternative that can size up to bitcon to exist an effort has to be made that greatly outpaces the development of bitcoin itself. I think this leaves adopters with only two options: on board or against.
I hesitate to speculate that there might be a clash between the two. I just want to stress that in the foreseeable future the currency camps that are going to exist will be bitcoin and old world currencies, not bitcoin and some other crypto-currency.

You probably can agree. Not sure if point 8 was written in a sarcastic tone hence my explanation.

Hello all, I am a new member of Bitcoin community. I have been involved in BTC for some time now.
As most of you, I have a pretty decent mining rig thats doing what its supposed to.
I am posting here in order to earn my right at the table of "BTC grown-ups" and to have a "grown-up" voice. This is probably enough of information to get me started.

To make this post less boring, I want to know if people have ever minded the following...

What is the future of BTC?

I have been pondering on this question for sometime.
On thing for certain, it is difficult to speculate what the future of BTC exactly looks like.
In trying to answer the above question, I have arrived at three solid facts.

1) There are many individuals who are vested in BTC.
2) These are developers, economists, entreprenuers, thinkers.
3) Most of these people believe there is something about BTC that makes it worth their time.

I am interested in personal feedback from the community in regard to number 3.
As for me I feel that BTC offers a technical challenge. Since I started I've learned a lot about GPUs, FPGAs, computing and programing.

What are your reasons why you invest your time into bitcoin?

Thanks!
