Yipes indeed, especially here in the Newbie playpen. Child safe it is not.
But this raises a more general question--is there a place to crowd-source and crowd-fund Bitcoin projects? Perhaps with discussion, refinement, and voting?


I know of a bitcoin lending platform. Btcjam.com You can apply for a loan in bitcoins. Very quick and simple to sign up for and a nice mature community. Plus when you have extra bitcoins laying around you can lend them out and make a great return profit .

"With the recent popularity spike in bitcoins it seems many people are aware of them but they simply don't understand them. Granted it can be a hard concept to grasp for those who are not technologically adept. For example the older adults who make up a majority of the population. This seems to be a problem because many people fear what they don't understand. This could hurt the future of bitcoins. Congress recently had a hearing about bitcoins and that scares me because the old men with power were making decisions (or lack there of ) on a concept they barely understand. This is why I believe people need to be thoroughly educated on the truth abd hard facts about bitcoins. So go ahead and try to teach your family about bitcoins. Try teaching your grandparents or people at work or anybody that will listen to you. Awareness is the key to bitcoins survival.
It's not just funny money anymore people."

Or... you can create/develop a software that is very user-friendly
