Have you noticed the word bitcoins being censored anywhere? On xbox I decided to make my motto bitcoins. However it said that is not allowed. Neither coin nor bit is censored but bit coins bit-coins bitcoins and bitcoin are.

Dang I tried that even with a bunch of random stuff between and after and with numbers as letters. Well, if they're (a big corp like MS) afraid enough to censor it, then people are definitely noticing us!

Could you check for "lindendollars" or something like that? Maybe they just want to prevent to advertise exchange offers for "virtual" currencies, acting like PayPal.

I'm fairly sure it's just because bitcoin has the letters bitc, most of the word 'bitch'. Just a silly measure to prevent people having even sillier mottos, I guess.

Bitcoin Core developer [PGP] Warning: For most, coin loss is a larger risk than coin theft. A disk can die any time. Regularly back up your wallet through File → Backup Wallet to an external storage or the (encrypted!) cloud. Use a separate offline wallet for storing larger amounts.
