Once you own 51% of the network, you win.

That's the point of only having one winner.

Casino method.

1 InsertBitcoin if success, then goto 2; if not, scroll message, InsertBitcoinHere
2 Pull handle if success then goto 3
3 SeePlums if success then goto 4; if not, then goto 5
4 YouWinAllBTC
5 TryAgain

Pretty basic  Grin

For Bitcoin to be a true global currency the value of BTC needs always to rise.
If BTC became the global currency & money supply = 100 Trillion then ⊅1.00 BTC = $4,761,904.76.

Spurn wild goose chases. Seek that which endures.

1) Find a role that is present in all "real" economies but as yet unimplemented in the (frankly still foetal) Bitcoin economy.
2) Be the first to fill the role. Do as well as you can, but don't worry about being great.
3) Collect spoils from the temporary monopoly.
4) Use spoils to hire people who know what they're doing and can get your business to "great" level while competitors are still catching up to your first draft solution.
5) Collect spoils from your position as market leader.
6) Hire a professional manager to keep the business going without your help.
7) Go play golf.

If there is something that will make Bitcoin succeed, it is growth of utility - greater quantity and variety of goods and services offered for BTC. If there is something that will make Bitcoin fail, it is the prevalence of users convinced that BTC is a magic box that will turn them into millionaires, and of the con-artists who have followed them here to devour them.
