Something about BTC makes people forget previous experience. Try to keep it with you. Happy Trails! |

If there's one thing blocking widespread adoption, it's this.

Security is hard to achieve...Keep it on your computer, offline.
Or on paper!

How does it matter, if you know the institution, if it is a big company, even if it is a legitimate financial business?
Look at Cyprus, they got it all there.

My standard password + My throwaway password (backwards, all caps) + &#$%@ + First two sentences of first paragraph of page 19 of my favorite book (include all capitalization and punctuation) + My wife's mother's middle name + My son's favorite superhero + My favorite number times 8734 + food my wife hates (backwards, all caps) + 9-digit number stored with my paper will + 10-character password stored in my safety deposit box + . . . . Great password formula. I've been generating random ones, but this way makes it feasible to actually remember the damn thing. |

Agree with the main points. In general this applies to any sort of transaction not even just with bit coins

A good password that I used that is 30 + digits long is ( stupid old nintendo password that I remembered as a kid + locker combo in high school + last four of ssn + stupid old nintendo password that I rembered as a kid backwards )
I'll never forget that password, and it's got numbers, letters, uppercase, and special characters. Not crackable.
