I would probably guess it would be something like New York. Or maybe Berlin. But maybe there are some other cities out there that happen to have a much larger percentage of people actively using bitcoin.
I'd love to visit a city where I can spend bitcoin throughout my day on the regular daily activities like dining, shopping, and entertainment. Is this possible anywhere yet?
Even if you know your city isn't the biggest bitcoin city, post it anyway and describe how people are actively using bitcoin if you'd like to share.

Yes this site is awesome, when I first about this website I was watching it all day, just to see where the big bitcoins would be bought. My observation back then was that the asians where buying bitcoin like crazy. But I think some asian city in China has proberly the most users of bitcoin.

That site is skewed, as it will ALWAYS show money moving INTO bitcoin when it is also moving out at the same time.

http://coinmap.org/I think this is the closest you will ever get to knowing where bitcoin is the most popular. Although it does show the merchants and not the bitcoin owners. But it's nearly impossable to even know how many bitcoin users there are in total, let alone know where they live.

If I were to guess I would say San Francisco. Seems to be a lot high profile bit coiners there.

The biggest city in every state. For instance: Los Angeles, California. Or possibly the capitol city.

I would agree here. I would think California has the most BTC users. San Francisco as a city probably has a lot of users as well

I have found the Bitcoin is legal in Germany and Spain. So it could be any cities from these two country.

In percentage (of the city population) or just total number of users? Since last week, after Arnhem Bitcoincity, I would guess Arnhem (in the east of the Netherlands) has the highest Bitcoin usage per capita.

looking at this map - almost looks like a bitcoin war is going on between usa and china. i understand china sees bitcoin as way of attacking the dollar.
