AND why?
Just 1 thing, for I it would be transaction times, cause waiting for those confirmations is wayy too long sometimes  Cry

i think there should be a 2 or possibly 3 step verification?? or something. maybe something that is always instant that automatically pushes everything through into a temp ledger, then eventually after enough time goes by it gets pushed to a larger collection then finally get passed on as solved when the block is found.

no idea if tha tmakes it better but tx transactions are soo small it doesnt matter iw ould think.

I would ban Luke-jr

Who the hell is luke-jr Huh

An important yet controversial developer on the forums with a bit of an ego and a battle with a few members on here now and then.
In D@T and Github mostly so you don't see him to much unless your trying to change or alter some part of the Bitcoin Protocol with Gavin.
Usually around blockchain compression sidechains those sort of areas.
Or mining as ckolivas is pointing out  Wink Cough BFL

improve the security of bitcoind itself obviously

It is currently pretty secure if you use a well thought out passphrase encryption.

Not 100% true, anyone can be traced with the slightest clues left behind.

Mix into Monero and then mix back out again a using a different exchange. Hopefully the liquidlty will keep increasing to make this viable for larger and larger amounts of Bitcoin.

A compressed full node
So that it doesn't take days to load the full blockchain client from scratch and by having more nodes taking less space have Bitcoin remain decentralized and accessible to all users.
Instead of the lightweight clients.

The current system seems pretty perfect, even the confirmation times are not bad..10 mins , anyone can wait.

It seems perfect because not too many people are using it. Come a BIG influx of people and im sure we will see the problems arise.

Seems that almost all the bitcoin users in this thread agree to decrease the transaction times, and you can add me too of course Smiley

If I could change one thing, it would be confirmation times. 5-10 min/confirmation is too slow rate, specially doing high amount transactions.

Yes could be improved but isnt necessary. Bank transfers take several days and international bank transfers can take weeks or months if you encounter a problem. So 5 minutes isnt that bad Smiley

Scam-Busting PSA: Beware of Black Arrow Software
The current system works perfectly and well, no major changes are required...



What if 10 million people decide to use bitcoin. Im sure the network would begin to struggle with massive amounts of transactions being made and size limits.

Based on the rate of adoption and wallet creation, we might be at this level by the end of the year...

Which is another reason why Mutli Sig support in the clients would be a massive benefit. It will expand the possibly uses and help people have confidence in the system as both a sign of continuous development and also expanding the basic feature set..

I think i want to mining setting, after 21.000.000 BTC mined. Bitcoin still can mined, but the reward is only 1 BTC / block  Grin

But then we become Doge, and our value will drop hard. Not a good idea to make it an inflationary currency.
