There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Just came in with the highest number of forum page views (daily) since March (when the Linode hacking was the big story). Just under half a million views in 24 hours. (And about 99.5% percent of them pirate related ...) - http://www.bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=statsThe amount of transactions on the blockchain continued over 10 million again for the second day in a row (never had exceeded 10 million in a single day before this week): - http://blockchain.info/charts/output-volume?timespan=allBut since BitcoinDays Destroyed didn't really spike much, the coins moving are pretty much just the same ones tumbling around.

A few thousand search queries not-withstanding, I wonder how many millions of people were subtly put-off and encouraged to adopt a negative mindset towards Bitcoin because of that hit-piece (the Good Wife 'Bitcoin' episode)? That said, I'm glad that things finally seem to be taking off. All the best with the BTC debit card thing, let's hope it works out good! off put by the GW episode? Like 99.999% of viewers went from thinking "......." to "<anything else>" about bitcoin. It was way not a hit piece either. "Real is going to change", old people hating on it, protagonist on the bitcoin side.

I didn't read this thread yet, but was drawn in by the fact that I read the title as "Good Wife beaten"

Another explanation would be that this peak is only about Bitfloor, and that the peak about Romney is yet to come

Yesterday bitfloor news was much lower, so either this is bug, or it will change later.

To put things into perspective, compared with obama and romney, bitcoin line is flat.

Hes talking about the election. Obama and Romney's numbers are over inflated due to the recent political conventions that just occurred.
