It's just weird thinking that we'll all be buying hotdogs at 0.00000001 bitcoins in a few years. I guess people will have to be comfortable with exponents real soon.
^ this.

As for the people who believe that the value of a single Bitcoin goes up. Yes it does, but so many people who started using Bitcoin to check what it is all about, will jump off the bandwagon because it's too geeky, too expensive to maintain and absolutely uncomfortable as payment method. In the end, maybe five people will be left using Bitcoins and everybody else returned to usable currencies, laughing at those loony Bitcoin users. So who cares about the Bitcoin/gold value.

Now my operating system isn't so stressed anymore Cheesy When Bitcoin was mining, often my system would lag, even freeze every few seconds. And this on a Core2Duo CPU. I now also have 400MB harddisk space free again now that the Bitcoin database is gone.

How can anybody take a currency serious that is dependent on electricity and where the maintenance costs more than what we get in return?

Bitcoin reminds me of the old Barcode Battler LCD game. People buy completely useless things they actually don't need and hope they can be a winner that way.

Now let's calculate how much real money you spent to set up a computer to mine Bitcoins Roll Eyes I'm sure it was worth it.

Oh my, there's a ton of reasons, all of which I am sure you've read here on the forums before so I think it'd be kinda boring to discuss here. Just a small list if you insist [...]
- The Bitcoin currency requires more energy (electricity/buying new hardware/spending real money) for what we get in return.
