Very nice

but bitcoin is not the most decentralised network.

the internet is.
then banking network (remember every ATM, cashier PC are all connected to their servers, which then connect to other bank servers)
then online gaming network (millions of users conncting to microsoft)
then government agencies
then bitcoins

just because there is alot of hashpower, does not mean there is alot of desktop computers/laptops hashing..

Are the internet and banking really decentralized?

It would be awesome advertising for bitcoins - there are still many people who either know nothing or know only a little about cryptocurrencies. So when they find BTC network in a guiness book they will probably get more interested.

internet has a centralised motive, data sharing
banks have a centralised motive, money transfer
bitcoin has a centralised motive, ledger transfer
gaming has a centralised motive, kill streaks

but they are all location on different machines in different companies, in different countries..

Agree what you said.

Guinness is known to slide past reality as far as "internet" goes.
For example, they gave "World of Tanks" record for "most users online on single server" even tho, game is NOT MMO, nor users are playing on same server. It's easy to cheat Guiness. All WoT has is single "login" system so basicly, by that rule Google or Facebook can go under same category as many games use their login system.

Anyway, it's cool PR stunt (Bitcoin in Guinness), nothing more, nothing less.

[ronskii]

That would be another point of verification for most of the people that bitcoin is in fact not a scam..

but with the same point is why i dont feel GBR is a big deal, i have not really bothered to see who is record breaking eac year.. ever since i was a kid.. as the records themselves are just...... not that good.

its like winning the egg and spoon race.. great someone won. but.. its an egg and spoon race!

still any PR is good PR, i wont rant on about what i think would really help bitcoin

Well, i don't have problem with "quality" of record. If someone broke "egg and spoon race" record, that's cool for me. World is large, and there are enough people that will be interested in it. For example, i have no freakin idea why anyone would watch "Cardashians" TV show, but some ppl do. Same with "egg and spoon", it will get some attention for sure.

What i have problem with is objectivity. If it's freakin egg and spoon race, than do not let someone glue god damn eg to spoon, or someone compete with custom made spoon that can safely carry eg in any position you like etc. Spoon is a spoon, and egg is a egg. "Most users on one game server" is exactly that...not freaking login server!

[KriszDev]

I'm really wanna see bitcoin in the Guiness records books.

[crazyivan]

It is not important which category BTC appears in. We are talking about positive promotion, getting BTC more positive press and consequently more users.
Really hope to see this.

[dlzc]

Me too, Please wait it.

What we can do is let more persons recognizing BTC, and like you said consequently more users.

We tried that a while ago:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=29722 Bitcoin Guinness World Records

We might need a new category...

[Nerazzura]

According to British Bitcoin Development LTD official say, they have allied dozens of Bitcoin companies and institutions from all over the world, preparing to apply for a Guinness Record.

The plan looks crazy. If applying projects can be recognized by Guinness organizations, Bitcoin will be brought to widely acknowledged era.

We interviewed Howard, CEO of the company, he introduced because Bitcoin is a concept of decentralization. Normally, they can’t declare the Guinness Record as independent. What they planed is that allying global Bitcoin players, and making Guinness headquarters as temporary centre. Their company will replace all players as the applicant. A series of application will be accomplished at the same place and time in the world. It is said the projects they built have over ten, including “the world’s largest distributed computing network”, which bulky network can only be completed by state machinery.

The aim is to promote Bitcoin’s popularization and recognition all over the world, which will have profound influence on Bitcoin’s development.

What’s more, once start declaring, the whole process will be transmitted live all over the world. And the certificates will share with us on Bitcoin’s exhibition, hold in every area. All participated lovers will reward a copy and take photo for memory, which will be putted in related museum as historical mark.

Bitcoin can be recognized by the world? It may be a good chance. And it will guard Bitcoin’s solid position in the region of virtual encrypted digital currency.   

which is very encouraging news for you, me, and everyone who has been fighting for bitcoin. eventually, sooner or later we waiting period will soon arrive. I can not wait for this to happen, where bitcoin will be recognized by the world instead of just a few countries as legal tender. our duty to promote and support all of this.

"bitcoin" is surely the future!
