Party on! I am still totally overwhelmed by this amazing technology. Looking forward to all the great stuff that is going to happen 
Where is the party?
We did celebrate in Berlin.
Offered four Pampero shots for the price of one, quadriple cheeseburgers and deep fried 'Blockschokolade' (German word for cooking chocolate which comes in little blocks).
Lots of glass raising and toasting 'to blockchain eternity and beyond'
.nice!

We should use this kind of event much more and connect and celebrate globally, toast to each other via skype, buy each other drinks from continent to continent and so on.
What could be the next event to celebrate in the Bitoin community?

Satoshi would be proud to see so (why isn't soo a word?) many people responding to this thread.
Is that the American indian who is crying because the land of his ancestors has become polluted (TV commercial from the 70s)? Perhaps Satoshi is crying because his blockchain has become polluted with Satoshi Dice transactions.

I am just waiting for something worth $21,056,760 to spend them all at once (and pay the miners 0.0005 BTC ).
). By blockexplorer.com's count there are 10,679,713 transactions, 21,808,789 inputs, 24,869,221 outputs, and 8,778,013 keys. 1,252,442,844.03996469 total bitcoins transferred. 1,571,400 BTC still in unspent generations before block 70,000.
Is that 1.517M that has never moved?
How reasonable do you think is it to assume that those are all lost? I mean if all the other 2M moved from those early blocks, why wouldn't the rest? Who likely owns them? Satoshi?

Funny how the number tx and the number of coins match pretty closely.
wooooo happy bday! 
who can tell the number of transactions bitcoin handled? blockchain.info currently seems to be a little out of sync.
