Re: Wanted: Discussion about a Bitcoin Idea

you claim that your transaction is a burden on the network, but give no numbers to support your claim.

why is it a burden? cumulative bandwidth of propagating a few hundred bytes around the world? a few milliseconds of computing power per node?

the bitcoin network was designed to verify and propagate transactions. that is what it is for.

what you are proposing is a clearing house. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clearing_house_(finance)

you wrote a lot of words that don't convey any concrete ideas.

if you want "investors" or anyone to help you, try writing correctly and not pointlessly divulging how you bought things on silk road.

anybody who

c) cares enough to want to secure those bitcoins

is going to

a) know how to learn things
b) make an m-of-n paper wallet
c) not give their coins to someone else

so this service will only resonate with

a) fools
b) sloths

Re: "Cryptocurrency" is misleading

you hit buttons to make words but you didn't say anything.

"cryptocurrency can be misleading when you look at other uses of these proof-of-work protocols"

these words mean nothing

"We hear about"

link to it

"I think that cryptocurrency is an easy word to understand for the general public"

correct

"but I hope there's another word"

no reason given why you hope that

needed in advance

"bubble"

Re: on what condition can people have fath for bitcoin just like for gold?

Gold is a Great conductor and will become more and more useful and rare into the future,..

Not to mention Gold is rare throughout the universe created when Stars Super Nova,..

Imo, Gold and Btc cannot be compared other than their Price,..

So, maybe if there was a practical use for Btc such as conducting, then we would be talking,..

Bitcoin is Valuable to me because its the Original CryptoCurrency, we have to think about thousands of years into the future and Make a Place for BTC there.

There is a chance greater than zero that each of us's DNA sequence is mined somewhere up there, and somebody up there had collected their 25 "up-there-conis" for finding a "block".. There are about 6 Billion blocks found so far and lets say maximum 21 Billion blocks could exists at the same time, so some of them will disappear over time (i.e. "death"), more will be mined (i.e. "birth")..
