According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in
Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it
will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

He wants to remain anonymous with regards to bitcoin usage. Perhaps he lives in Italy?
I lol'ed. I still want to buy this magazine with fiat (VISA or Mastercard).
Is there no way to do this?
Not trolling, actually curious-- wouldn't providing a mailing address to receive the magazine also be stripping you of your anonymity? We'll see if we can get additional payment methods set up but if you tell me what country you're in, I could probably tell you where to buy the magazine once it is public. That's some funny shit. |

Well done! I'm in for 12+1 printed issues + gift. This is a win-win for every bitcoiner: if BTC/USD tanks next week, this was a cheap subscription; if it skyrockets to 1000$ this year, the 18.5BTC will make it the most expensive ever - but with some more coins in the wallet it won't hurt too much  Good Luck! PS.: Frankly spoken, after lots of mining and reading about Bitcoin, this was my first purchase with BTC. And it went like a charm. No problems ordering to Switzerland, withdrew payment from MtGox, got it accepted two seconds later. Great service, Bit-Pay! Makes me think: why is it not yet used everywhere? |

You're asking the right questions. This is one thing I hope the magazine can help out with. People are worried about representation (and some are frankly not that good at it) in the Bitcoin community as we are by nature a decentralized community. The problem with that is that decentralization also breaks up communication and sharing to a degree and you will find companies, products and services that are both underpublicized or less than professionally presented. Since I am a quality junkie and a perfectionist, I will do me best to work with every company that works with the magazine to not only share our resources and learn from them, but to help bring them up to better standards and raise the bar for the whole community. We can do this, as a community. Bitcoin Magazine can help. |

How often do you get the chance to work on a potentially world-changing project?

I like the pixelation and the jpg artifacting on the image you blew up to magazine size, very Minecraft-esque.

Glad you approve! Actually it's a screen shot from InDesign. The real deal is 300 dpi. |

As for Bitcoin Magazine, I suspect this first issue will soon become a valuable collectors item if Bitcoin reaches even a fraction of its potential.
Everyone I've talked to has ordered 2 copies for that exact reason. |

I ordered 3 copies because I want one for myself and 2 of them in places where others can read them for free. Universities and libraries come to my mind when I think about the possibilities.

Leave one at the dentists office. Thats a good idea. I think the dentist's office is the last place that I touched a magazine. |

It would be nice to see some more info and discussion about the content of the magazine.
cheers

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.

That's a very round about way of saying "Can everyone stop talking about off-topic?" but I agree. I'll post some more updates as I go. My time has now shifted almost entirely to dealing with subscriptions and advertising. |

Thanks Bear. I knew you were a good bear. UPDATE: Just finished another advertisement for one of our advertisers. Take a look at the advertisements I have personally made for the magazine and our pricing. You might find it worth your while if you are a bitcoin business. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=60636 |
