Your idea is good though - Using wallet balances to moderate access to things.
It could be applied in many ways

Yeah I understand what you mean to a level.... but excluding outsiders is sort of against what my idea of Bitcoin should be about.
Hope you get my thinking.

Yep, I know what you mean.
Bitcoin is a technology and this is one benefit it provides that fiat does not.

How do you expect new users/incomers to become interested if our community isn't transparent?
We should be embracing non-adopters and try get them involved.
Also, what percentage of Bitcoin users hold >1BTC at any one time?
Is it hard to just to ignore the idiots?

I was thinking more like a separate subsection where people can talk without the trolls. Kinda like how you might like to go to a club meeting and discuss whatever it is your club is interested in without some losers coming in shitting all over the place. Imagine being in a chess club where some football player comes and sits in the room all day while you're trying to play chess saying "why do you play this stupid game? You're not doing anything physical at all. This is such a pussy game. Why don't you just push his king over? Why is it only black and white, why not add some color or mascots? This sucks.".
I certainly do ignore the trolls. I tend to give the benefit of the doubt to people that are skeptical so I have to read through a few pages of posts before I realize it's just someone that went through all of the effort to create a user just to waste people's time.

I'll support that, the more fanatical and circlejerky the Bitcoin community becomes the more Drama it will generate as a result.

There's the ignore button, and then there are self-moderated threads.
Good concept though

I have the buttcoiners and about 99% of the altcoin "devs" and announcers on ignore on reddit. Some still slip in every now and again.

Makes sense, you'd at least have a supportive audience... There are still people though who hold bitcoin who like altcoins more than btc, but still hold btc

On my BitPools site I provide a way for people to prove that they hold bitcoins. The great thing about Bitcoin is that the technology makes this possible.
I could easily use the code behind that and make a public API for forum admins or reddit to use so that certain threads are only open to Bitcoin users. The bitcointalk speculation thread is full of people purposefully trying to destroy Bitcoin, reddit has its Buttcoin people who's full time job is to try to take down Bitcoin. I have no idea why, but it would be nice to have a conversation about Bitcoin and not be inundated by these losers butting in with their full time job of trying to get people to not use Bitcoin (for whatever retarded reason). A 1 bitcoin minimum would filter out most of these people, and increased levels for even more clean discussion would be nice.
