Great talk. I always used to think that they were total tools. I was wrong.

Same here. They were quite humble and open minded. Very good talk.

No questions? Come on. These guys own 1% of all the bitcoins. Doesn't that raise anyone's curiosity?
If anybody gets a chance ask them these questions:
1. Why? 2. How did you acquire your bitcoins? 3. What is your cost basis? 4. Are they held a personal property or as corporate property? 5. How does your bitcoin security work? 6. How will you handle bitcoins in your tax returns?

Some of these questions they don't have to answer now do they?

as long as they don't claim that they are satoshi nakamoto and try sueing gavin andressen for some odd reason links with stealing code.
.... but then again, it would make a nice sequel to the social network movie and gain some more publicity

Oh Loaded, who art up in Mt. Gox, hallowed be thy name! Thy dollars rain, thy will be done, on BTCUSD. Give us this day our daily 10% 30%, and forgive the bears, as we have bought their bitcoins. And lead us into quadruple digits

Same here. They were quite humble and open minded. Very good talk. +1 My personal opinion of them changed quite a bit. There was no really important or new information in their talk, but at least it has shown that they probably are not the elitist assholes that I imagined them to be.

They've already answered 1, 2, 3 (roughly), and 5. Not that they had any obligation to do so. 4 and 6 ain't anybody's business.

Again we see investors looking to make an exit in Bitcoin pushing the remittance market and regulation as the ultimate goal and absolute pinnacle of success for a cryptocurrency, as though $400 billion were significant enough to support Bitcoin in the long run. To put that in perspective, the economies of all but a handful of tiny island nations are worth more than that. If Bitcoin can't even reach the size of, say, Iceland, it's doomed. We have to think bigger.

Yeah; an excellent talk. The thing I like about them is that they never, ever give up. And I'm really hoping that their goal is to use the dough they got from Zuckerberg to wipe Facebook Credits off the map with bitcoin. Heh. Irony...

Wouldn't government adoption of Bitcoin undermine many of it's essential revolutionary features? Sure the crypto currency might ensure its success this way but wouldn't it also lose its original purpose?

Everyone seems to miss the glaring point about "working with" the existing financial system.
It is all temporary. Bitcoin is the "poison pill" that will kill the host that doesn't adapt. So while the government and sundry financial services will be trumpeting success with Bitcoin's "taming" - what they're really enabling is for a bridge to exist between the old and the new, with the new eventually overwhelming the corrupt system.
Bitcoin is here to stay, and it doesn't matter what kind of slice the old bastards take out of it - it will be their downfall.
