Money Drop looks really good. One thing that bugs me (a lil bit) about Bitcoin is the trouble of scanning/pasting the address. Wonder if the CoinBase guys are building something similar to this?

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Bugs me too. Imagine you could send the information with sound or similar ?

Y'all gotta see Gliph. There's a web version and an android version in addition to the iOS version pictured below...But Gliph is about way more than sending bitcoins easily...ever send a secure text message? With Gliph you can, and it's free. It's basically replaced pgp amongst my important contacts.

That looks good.  I have mycellium right now only, but don't use it much.

Mycellium? I had to google it (I'm not an android guy...yet...mycellium looks cool)....to me mycellium is something I write a prescription to treat Smiley

Hardforks aren't that hard. It’s getting others to use them that's hard.

Last I checked, Glyph was closed source, so it is not secure and you cannot use it to replace PGP.  The interface seems good for sending bitcoins to friends though.

Closed != insecure

And yes, I rarely use PGP anymore...it was a PITA to begin with.

Enigmail for Thunderbird is working smoother than command line.

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

Let's be honest here. Closed = "secure because we say so" at best, because it is unverifiable by third parties.

Hive, a beautiful, secure wallet with an app platform for Mac OS X, Android and Mobile Web. Translators wanted! iOS and OS X devs see BitcoinKit.
