Turn 1J86yuX5qTZwAzx7EC5ik7bYYDEtyrCenM into "world and gives us the songs of innumerable though trivial as for any grammatical confront and transform principal compounds and washed by the clear waters watershed points in because I saw what happened 1933"! Seems that the longer one is harder to remember... but just try it. It's much easier to remember English words than alphanumeric strings. http://github.com/nathanieltheis/RememberCoin for interested parties. Uses some public domain Base58 code.

In order to get the maximum amount of activity points possible, you just need to post once per day on average. Skipping days is OK as long as you maintain the average.

Haha, great idea. You might want to experiment with using n-gram databases like Googles: http://ngrams.googlelabs.com/datasetsrather than just glueing words together. Remembering completely random word sequences is probably easier than addresses, but still way too hard. I wouldn't trust my memory of those strings for any kind of important transaction. |

Perhaps useful for in-person address communication

Done, and in latest builds. Cute, interesting too. Also could be useful as a mode for transferring addresses inside plain text documents that can escape searches looking for/tracing bitcoin addresses ... hiding in plain sight. |

Done, and in latest builds. Could you give some examples or throw up a running instance somewhere so we can try it out without building? |

Turn this into a web app with some ads on the page and I suspect you'd pull a reasonable amount of traffic.

Definite improvement. Now the problem is that the n-grams don't really blend together so there are weird disjoints in the produced text.
If you had access to more compute power the best way to solve this would be a path through a large language model, I think. But now we've reached the limits of what I know about this.

People interested in this may also like https://github.com/singpolyma/mnemonicodeIt currently only does raw bytes or hex, but if there's a bitcoin address decoder around (or if you just feed in the ASCII) you will get words  |
