I caught my mum watching a film yesterday which I think is based off this animation:

http://www.fat-pie.com/time.htm

(lol Gavin (56) looks like gavin andresen)

Film:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Time_%28film%29

Premise is that time is the currency. 1 cup of coffee = 4 mins. I get the impression though that if that were the case then the economy would shut down and everyone would hoard. but who knows if the supply was inflating.

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

  Aye, love the concept of that movie. Will be watching it soon as I can just for that reason.

  You over-estimate the ability of humans to rationalize. Their time is counting down anyway, so why not enjoy it? Humans are simple like that.

If you're not excited by the idea of being an early adopter 'now', then you should come back in three or four years and either tell us "Told you it'd never work!" or join what should, by then, be a much more stable and easier-to-use system.
