This time it may be a whole lot more complicated. We may be experiencing/creating an economic singularity. While many have vested interest in the status quo, this thing may just laugh at them and keep coming like a tsunami. Time will tell. It would not be the first time in history of homo sapiens that innovation changed the world...

You are dead on!

PR game is critical now. The wiki should have a PR section addressing main issues as they evolve. Twitter is full of garbage and ignorance. We need a PR team.

I run Mac OS X

I created an encrypted .dmg and copied my entire BAY1/users/me/library/application support/bitcoin folder to the .dmg (mounted of course. Then I deleated the original folder. Next, I copied the bitcoin launch button to the same dmg and clicked. No coins and restart of block connections???

Next, I copied the entire folder back to the original location and clicked the original app launch button. Same effect???

What do I do?

Re: HOWTO: create a 100% secure wallet

From the wiki on Securing Your wallet:

"Backup all data (500MB)
Follow these instructions to backup all the bitcoin data (wallet and block chains) to an encrypted disk image.
1.Open Disk Utility
2.Click New Image and choose 500MB, 128-bit or 256-bit (faster or more secure) encryption and single partition.
3. Save it somewhere you won't lose it (like your Dropbox, Strongspace or whatever)
4. Choose a safe and strong password
5. Move everything from ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/ to the image
6. Symlink it back so the app would be able to use it
      ln -s /Volumes/Bitcoin ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin
Don't forget to mount your image before using Bitcoin and unmount after quitting it.

Backup just wallet.dat (40MB)
Follow these instructions to backup just the wallet.dat file. This results in a smaller disk image, but it's more complicated to do.
1. Open Disk Utility
2. Click New Image and choose 40MB, 128-bit or 256-bit (faster or more secure) encryption and single partition.
3. Save it somewhere you won't lose it (like your Dropbox, Strongspace or whatever)
4. Choose a safe and strong password
5. Move your wallet.dat file to the image
    Symlink it back so the app would be able to use it
     ln -s /Volumes/Bitcoin/wallet.dat ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/wallet.dat


Can someone elaborate even a little bit on these steps. What is "symlink"?

The "Secure you wallet" wiki is written for someone with 'moderate' (at the very least) understanding of software/hardware. It must be expanded! That document is absolutely critical!!!

Also guys,

Bitcoin stickers for cars, etc have just popped up on ebay. A great "get the word out" tool while we sit in traffic...

I am a PhD scientist and have spent several years translating applied science into protocols for people with minimal training to follow (in pharmaceutical industry). Trust me, it is not easy! One must very specifically define each variable and downstream relationships.

We are at the point where MASSIVE amounts of money WANT to roll in but are afraid of security related issues.

From my interactions, I have concluded that lifetime investors (40-70yrs) old with successful history in the global markets are the key demographic. Guess what, most of them barely know how to send email, but very much realize the growth potential of this thing.

We need a WELL WRITTEN STEP BY STEP MANUAL endorsed by votes!!! and we need it NOW!!!

Can somebody PLEASE generate a "100% secure wallet FOR DUMMIES" step by step text document on this board. No downloads. Thatway, we older folks can feel safe in the bitcoin universe! This is critical in order to increase demand which will invariably lead to a higher price!!!

Also, once FOR DUMMIES version is posted, please vote on it. THANKS TO ALL OF YOU!

Re: Newbie restrictions

I like the restrictions. The only way to keep the board from getting contaminated. Bitcoin information flow must be protected!
By the way, I saw bitcoin car stickers on eBay!!! This would go a long way towards raising general awareness...
