And they are mostly slant eyed.

who cares where we're from. all the users here choose to read the english section. there are other local sections on the forum if you did not know
Why so negative? I for one find it very interesting to see in the poll the userbase of Bitcoin. Also the fact that Africa has zero is significant, it just comes to show how undevelopped the infrastructure there is, while the biggest value of bitcoin is for people in third world countries with no solid fiat system....
North America/US here.
I don't understand the purpose of this. What does knowing the continent tell you?
It's pretty technical, but let me try to explain it in simple terms. Knowing what continent you're from gives me a general idea of where all you fuckers are from in this world without requiring you to divulge too much detail on where you're from. Bitcoin has away of promoting anonymity.
Just joking with you, it's just a simple question...like when you go to a party and strike up a conversation with someone knew and say "so, where are you from?"
This is one big party, I'm meeting you for the first time...so where are you from?
Ok, I get it but I have no issue with you knowing where I'm from because I don't really believe in breaking the law. I live in the Diamond Heights district of San Francisco right across the street from Glen Canyon Park.
Europe here as well. It is nice to see so many Europeans here

I don't think that Australians use bitcoins much.
Just as I thought. Only 6.7% from Australia lol. Come on aussies!

I came from asia, asia seem very much in this forum
and certainly china dominate?
and certainly china dominate?
If I had to guess, I'd guess China. China has a LOT of people. Chinese people are all over these boards!
Unfortunately, this forum has been blocked by Chinese GFW.So I don't think there are lot of Chinese people in here.
Before I vote, Europe, Asia and North American was tie. Now Asia is leading! I'm from Asia too!
From Asia here, so it looks like people from north america and this continent is leading the poll. Nice to see more asians getting active in this forum.
Nearly half of the world population is located in Asia, so there's no contest who should come in first.

Just trivia, maybe

Surprised a bit at the diversity. Apparently not many Africans though.

Link to mining pool stats:
https://blockchain.info/pools
EDIT: I could not figure out how to get that pie chart pasted in here, but here are some recent stats re hashing power, these figures are very similar to the ones I mentioned in a separate thread a few days ago:
AntMiner: 18% China
F2Pool: 15% "
BTCChina Pool: 10% "
BW.COM: 10% "
KnCMiner: 6% Sweden
GHash.IO: 4% UK? Slovakia? Ukraine? (Comment: remember when GHash.IO briefly had 51%?)
BTCGuild: 3% ?
Slush: 3% Czech Republic
There is a separate column for "Unknowns". You can search Google and find out the country, or at least where they report from. IIRC, "5.9.xxx.xxx" is Germany and "82.221.xx.xx" is Iceland.
Correct me where wrong!

you also forgot Central America
Isn't that a region?
It is a region and Central America (from the isthmus of Panama north) is part of North America. Great question, thanks for your participation.

That was a nice idea you came up with, asking bitcointalkers where they come from. It will be interesting to see how well (or not) those who respond to you come from vs., say, hashing power (blockchain.info's mining pool stats).
N. America!

Hey, that's a great idea. Let's compare the location of hashing power to this poll. Where do we find the hashing power source info on blockchain...is it relatively easy for me to find?

I am from the same distant planet as Satoshi. In order to protect his identity, I am not allowed to reveal the location or name of our home world.
I will ask the admins and moderators of this forums to track your IP.. And we shall reveal who is Satoshi.. LoL! - just kidding.
If I had to guess, I'd guess China. China has a LOT of people. Chinese people are all over these boards!
That might be true, but there is no way that many of them will come to this thread
yes so Asia will dominate this thread

I'm from South East Asia. I always thought that North America use Bitcoin more than Europe and it seem like I'm wrong.. or maybe North American dont like to use forums?
you also forgot Central America
@Possum577 Thanks, you even went for the option that includes most of the places left out .
One day I am going to find the guy who teaches this stuff in school and point out that there are 4.5 million angry kiwi's after him.

Coming from New Zealand I seem to be left out of your poll.
Sorry mate, I'll make an edit to include Oceania (for Australia, NZ, and pacific islands).
I love New Zealand (only been once but it was fantastic). Very sorry to keep you out, thanks for calling me out.
I swear. The moment someone says, "I'm from Antarctica" I am flipping fucking tables.
If antarctica was there I would probably pick it since New Zealand is close and not in any of the available options

I'll spare you the effort, since I'm from Daedelia Planum (a "continent" on Mars).
Pffft, that's nothing. I'm from zz9 plural z alpha! You probably haven't heard of it, it's soooo underground and hipster and cool. Just like I am cool because I know what zz9 plural z alpha means.

i'm from europe, have voted as well. i think it's fair to say that most of the forum members here are from usa.
after usa comes europe and china. china is already nr1 in network hashrate so one day they will also be nr1 on this forum.

I'd love some stats on the geographic make up of the active folks on this forum. I've not seen the statistics compiled or shown anywhere else (and if they do exist, please feel free to point me in the right direction.)
We can learn a lot about each other by knowing how geographically diverse (or centered) the community is.
Thanks.

SE Europe here, i think most of our audience is from US, and asian teritories, but am also interested in what the poll will show.
You can take a look at alexa report, it will show you some basic statistics, but sadly not full informations, since its a paying service.
cheers
