There's a lot more trolls and non-helpfull trolls on this newbie form, than last year... Last year it was full of positive, great idea's, and had a sense of community.. Feels like a little trashy now.. It's sad.

Hey Faisal7, is this you?

Hehe, the mining stuff is not what Bitcoin is about.

In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

It has already succeed on being a means of moving money from point A to B.

It haven't yet succeed as a means of storing value in my opinion, as it's quite volatile and unregulated by governments word wide. But that could change and I hope it will soon.

I think Bitcoins can and are succeeding, but the ecosystem requires commitment at this early stage of the game. Putting up a couple of CPU/GPU machines will not generate much of anything other then the possible satiation of academic curiosity. There is nothing wrong with this but I think it is a fallacious conclusion to say that Bitcoins wont succeed based on this type of limited exposure.

Based on what I have seen from the Euro crisis and the deflation of the dollar, I think the world may be ready for Bitcoin.

I think that banks and big financial player won't give up the market without defending there monopoly.
the dieing film and music industries shows how to do it on an other battleground.

let's see, how lobbyists will try to impact politics to defend there business.
hopefully they'll be heard to late.

Or perhaps they have nothing to worry at all. Perhaps the bitcoin will evolve into a secondary monetary system but will not replace the system we currently live in.

Judging from people's mastery of their own computers and how often they get infected with viruses, I know few people that would be willing to put all their money inside their computer and trust it to be safe.

With that in mind I think bitcoin is very much contained as a secondary tool, not threatening the main stream currencies at all. Not now and not in any time soon, that's just my view though.

BTC, being a decentralized currency does have have a place in the current currency market. Especially with the eurozone crysis underway.

The guy on the video tries to make up for his weak arguments with aggressiveness and goes on to call everybody else retards... Yes right.

He's into gold and silver, claiming that it's better because you can hold and perhaps keep it in your house with yourself, but then wouldn't that make it insecure? Or do you keep it at the banks and is that any more safe these days?

Bitcoins have only succeeded with geeks and nerds. They layperson has neither heard of nor cares about them, they will never be a mainstream currency.
