I'm sure being incredibly wealthy will be nice, but am I the only one who's more excited about the "I-Told-You-So's"? Because those are gonna be epic.  I dont half look forward to that "I told you so" day - the amount of stick I get for being into "magic internet money" is stupid lol - be nice to say "I told you it was awesome". |

I'll keep my eyes on this, I like the coins, I just cant have any just yet  |

Hahaha that gif is fantastic lol, thought that myself! |

Well yes, its possible I think - I've pondered on the same thing myself, it could actually ALL be a giant scam, what more could a greedy person want than a get rich quick investment. However I do think, that at its current growth, if it did start out a scam, then perhaps if the market growths enough it can outgrow any possible scam - so it will all be ok .... or the whole thing could just vanish and "poof your moneys gone". |

I'm starting to see interest on localbitcoins in my area - but as someone pointed out, I figure its people wanting to use silk road lol.
But still, I think I'm going to trade, spreads the word, spreads the bitcoins.

I've wondered about this a little, it could turn out in a few years to be one of the few ways bitcoin can be attacked, although at that point I'd hope the economy would of grown enough to sustain it.
As mentioned tho, people still use bitcoin regardless. If there gonna attack it, they better hurry up and give it there best shot.

Dam it - just stupidly deposited some btc into my intersango account to sell for £, then I realised I couldnt get it back out so had to sell back to btc and move it out.... luckly was only a small amount otherwise I'd be truely pissed at the loss I just made.

another thing is that inaba can access the asic much quicker than it would be to post to mathew in the UK. inaba could have the asic set up and running beffore they asics had gotten to a shipping container. potentially saving 2-4 weeks of waiting.
Indeed, I hadnt thought of that - win win I say. |

I think it makes sense that Inaba helps us to host them - I havent had any dealings with him, but from what I have read I think he seems like a cool guy.
Some very quick maths and it seems to me like RSM would basically be saving the elec costs over the course of the products 12-18m lifespan.
As for the share question, as much as I agree we cant let the company stagnate whilst we wait for the ASIC's, there are other areas we could work on - other avenues we can look at (investments, other revenue streams etc), dumping all we have into hardware we (no body) have not seen yet sounds like a big risk, and why stop at ASIC's 4, 5,6... I'm not sure diluting the shares this early on when revenue streams havent been proven yet is the way to go.
(hope I'm not treading on the toes with the above btw - this is all still a bit new to me I must admit, so I am still feeling myself around a little).

Ah Thailand - loved the place. To much sun and smoking for me, got well sick whilst there. Cant think of a solution to your problem - doesnt seem like you have to many options really  . Its not so bad in the UK, usually takes a day or so to get into mtgox account. |

No, BTC makes no sense for an NWO plan with all that decentralization and mining overhead. They're rather gonna establish a world central bank. Digital transactions will be via the MintChip ( tracking you). If they play out a crash, the solution they'll offer will be something like Facebook credits. Facebook credits lol. I think Bitcoin is supposed to be anarchist type currency. It's the legal tender of the Agorist nation. (which is, of course, total bull, but it does make a great digital currency for agorists) Is it just me or Internet is already a nation in itself? No, but it should be, I had an idea to kinda make it one but got shot down in flames lol. On another note:- "Give me control of a nations money supply, and I care not who makes it’s laws" - Amschel Rothchild, I dare say he's in the NWO club, so as pointed out, bitcoin removes some of that control away from the people who control us (to a degree) today. Now just imagine if they lost all of that control and we took it all back and let computers look after it for us instead |

So... the fact that Gavin was invited to give a talk to the CIA over a year ago didn't mean Bitcoin was already on their radar?
CIA != Fed I know a lot of people see "the government" and instantly assume that a presentation at government office A will instantly result in the entire federal workforce becoming aware of said presentation's contents, but that's not how real life works In 2010, the federal government workforce numbered at 4.4 million people. And most of those are hunkered down in their little slice of government, not talking to other branches. No kidding? The point of my post was that "the government" already knows about Bitcoin. From the CIA, to the FBI, to Chuck Shumer, to presidential candidate Mitt Romney, et cetera I'm sure. Suggesting that E. Voorhees poked the beehive giving a few bitcents to some Fed employees is silly. For the record, I was sincerely applauding the poking of said beehive. It needs poking, badly. It should be poked and often, and by someone who knows how. me, me, please can I do some poking - your quite right, I think they need poking - the world needs to wake up, and if that means poking a beehive, then poke away I say. Good write up by the way evoorhess - jammy sod tho, your life seems so cool! |

You make a lot of points that I agree with Sage! Bitcoin is not ready for the masses as yet, its to hard for none techies to understand and use - as sage says, until its a one click deal people wont take to it as quick as techies do. Bricks and mortar exchanges is what we need to reduce the fear none techies have until bitcoin can support 1 click type ease, come in, pay your fiat, get bitcoins on your smartphone right there, done.... im my humble opinion |

Done.
To expand on one of my comments, if I may.
I'm considerably older than most bitcoin users (in my 50's). When the web was first taking off, older folks were the last to catch on. I don't think it will be that way with bitcoin. My age peers are notorious technophobes but they also have a lot of money that they're about to see drop in value.
Once bitcoin hits, they won't want an exchange. They'll want a bitcoin "store", a place they can buy bitcoins easily. The company that positions themselves to market to the older folks and the technically non-proficient will have an edge on mtgox and other exchanges.
You know I've thought the same thing to a degree, I'm in my early 30's and I believe that one of the stumbling blocks to get over is getting people to feel safe about bitcoins - one of the best ways of doing this is face to face, in a bricks and mortar building. |

Done. I found it nice and to the point as well. I've had a tonne of ideas around exchanges so be nice to see what you come up.
