Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

They can't, because change.org can't make change. (See what I did there? )

I signed this, but that site says 100,000 signatures required. That makes me wonder... how many people are using Bitcoin?

Please be advised that an ISO alternate registry of currencies and currency-like commodities has just been proposed via the IETF. http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-stanish-x-iso4217-a3-00This approach works around the situation by removing the present effective monopoly of registration via SIX (who it should be noted are closely affiliated with SWIFT, and thus may be reasonably considered to have a possible conflict of interest in this registration). - Walter / http://ifex-project.org/

Edit it and produce a proper bibliography with reference/citation notes, rather than having external references scattered within your letter. Consider using one of the accepted citation systems. (Harvard?)
Keep it very factual and if possible cite other sources that have been peer reviewed (do a search for such articles) HC

Not such a smart move. Authorised legitimacy is not what Bitcoin needs, and accepting that money does need such authority is what got us into this situation in the first place. The people should agree which money is legitimate, not some committee of self-serving establishment drones.
Carlton does not approve this.
Edit: Also, I think that creating a trusted and ubiquitous currency WITHOUT authorised legitimacy would help the people of the world to realise how misplaced their trust in established authorities is. I would strongly recommend all who support this action to consider what I am saying. When the tax authorities arrive at your door, and you end up in court when you rightly refuse to submit to having your Bitcoins confiscated, your position will be weakened by a move like this. The prosecution team will have an extra legal argument in their toolkit, and you will wish you never signed the petition.
Please, do not support this measure.

:-) IF isoificating the BTC symbol is a good idea for publicity reasons, and there are no other drawbacks to doing so, then it might not be a bad idea. Of course, if we have to do any kind of Faustian bargain, then fuck ISO.
