I was just thinking - Bitcoin is one of those great rare names these days that is not used anywhere else.  Mention the word "bitcoin" and people immediately either know what you are talking about or have never heard the term.  No ambiguity.  As first mover in the realm of digital currencies, it thus has the potential to become a term with more meaning than just the literal currency (and protocol).  It could also become a verb. 

Just like we xerox papers or google an item of interest, in the future will someone "bitcoin you"?

"Hey Joe - can you bitcoin me the money you owe me?"

What do you think?
