It seems to me that Bitcoin has passed the point where it needs promotion. It is now growing from its own momentum. Enjoy the ride!

I agree BC has momentum, but big picture its still very much a non event....a going concern worth around 5 mill USD is almost nothing...its like 6 nice houses in Sydney.

We're still in the early days of growth. For example, the forum achieved a sustained posting rate of 700ish for 4 days. That never happened before.

I've been around here for about 5 or 6 days and can see what's happening, the forum numbers are impressive...i found this site via a contrarian investment commentary blog (cant remember which one now) so there is some somewhat "mainstream" interest....problem is that from a fundamentalist investment viewpoint the BC economy is almost non existent....the only market worth trading is LR(USD)/BTC and even that is very suspect.

And i get the feeling that the Anarchist community don't like currency speculators...again fundamentally this could cause some problems down the road as i suspect that the bulk of the hoarders are anarchists?
