the only thing that i want right now, is a faster confirmation, i'm not sure how the miners feel about receiving a block every...let's say 1 min(like doge)
but it would require reviewing the block structure and reward....too much of an hard fork i guess

I'd implement a change to decrease the average timer between blocks to 1 min or so.

Except unrealistic rainbow-unicorn-in-the-sky changes, I think the block reward could diminish more gradually (and not abruptly every ~ 4 years), and if it should continue to use PoW, it should be more "useful". Ooops, there is Primecoin already.

I'd request a memo line with transactions. Sure it might add bloat, but it is so practical with a public ledger.

Imagine having a nice beer at a local bar and suddenly you realize that the guy next to you can't pay for his drink - he forgot his wallet. Since you are a nice person and made some money from investing in Bitcoin, you pay his tab.
It turns out, this guy is Bitcoin's very own core developer gmaxwell and because he is also such a nice guy, he offers you to implement one feature into the Bitcoin protocol - no questions asked.
What would you ask him to implement?
edit: sure, no one would be forced to use that fork. Just imagine that this is the only valid version of Bitcoin everyone using Bitcoin has to use form then on!
Isn't it simple? I'd make block that would premine me atleast million of coins hehe.It turns out, this guy is Bitcoin's very own core developer gmaxwell and because he is also such a nice guy, he offers you to implement one feature into the Bitcoin protocol - no questions asked.

How would that work, so you would just get a specific number of coins after block X? That way the value of all coins would go down a lot, I don't know if you could profit from that very much...
But if i could mask it then let's say 0.2btc from every block mined would be enought.
But if someone would notice it in early stages you would end up with nothing, but if you would insert bigger reward for yourself you would more likely beable to get more fiat out of it.

This doesn't make any sense to me, as anybody can change the code and implement what they like, any time they like.
Sure, alright, what I was implying was that everyone would be "forced" to use that version of Bitcoin now. No way of using the old fork, everyone has to use your amended version.
