Guys, I've been knowing about bitcoin for a few months now, and I'm still fascinated by this stuff, and how well everything is going so far.

To me it's like I'm witnessing the realisation of what would otherwise been described as an utopia.  This is an internatinal money, which emerged without any support from any governement, with no publicity from any big corporation whatsoever, only thanks to the smartnest of a few people.

I'm so glad I can contribute to this.  This is great.

Thank you Satoshi, wherever you are.

Utopia means no place, an imaginary place.

This would be a Umonia.

Bitcoin is absolutely great. It is a technology that eventually may lead to other technologies like bitPredict, bitStock, bitSecurities, etc. And all completely out of the control of authorities... or not?
More realistically, the world needs a change of philosophy to get better. As Bob Murphy indicated in his article about assassination markets "The Politics of Destruction" :

I think Bitcoin is the single most liberating technology to come along in our lifetimes, aside from the internet itself.  I've been waiting for something like this for 20 years, ever since the idea began circulating on the cypherpunk mailing list.  Maybe Bitcoin won't be the currency to end all currencies, but it's pretty damn good as it is, and it points the way forward.  Thank you indeed, Satoshi.

Bitcoin has the potential to "change everything".

Whenever I hear people say things like "there will never be peace while the government controls the money supply", I think "well, we'll know one way or the other soon enough".

This is really a brilliant invention in so many ways.
Unfortunately, most people will only after realize it after the revolution is over - and then Satoshi will be publicly recognized as a genius.

We're really lucky to jump on this bandwagon while it's still in its infancy. Perhaps some day we will be telling your children - "I was **there** during the dawn of economic revolution ! Nobody knew then what is to come. But i was there, between the brave bunch of people who created the world of the future".
