Bitcoin: An Idea Worth Spending

Quote from: istar on January 18, 2012, 08:15:58 AM

There are so many things.

Greed, longterm and ripples.
Its here to stay.

Thats what will make Bitcoin huge.

Grass roots
Small online business
Speculators
Middle size business
Inflation vs Bitcoins
Black market
Money transfering

More and more people and small business start having an adress.

Tee-Shirt idea:

What's Your Address?

(that's a real address I C&P from another thread)

Note, I didn't ask "what's you Bitcoin address" thereby leaving enough to the imagination, but a Bitcoin logo on the back of the shirt would work. Or do it reversed: logo front; message back.

I kind of gave up on brick and mortar business. Maybe some internet business. Most likely ever growing mass of speculators supporting a long time bull market hitting critical distribution at some point so amazon and co. accept it and it becomes a currency.
we don't have a hen egg problem as bitcoin already works good for speculation. with growing volume, the rest can and will follow.

NFC + iPhone5 + iPhone wallet app. To me, this is the combo that will result in retailers saying 'yeah we can feasibly do bitcoin now' and then it snowballs from there.

When the hipsters can do it, everyone will realise it's a real thing.

It will be REALLY lite-weight bitcoin client app for mobile devices,
that will not need to download entire blockchain.

Lighter than Bitcoin Spinner?

Bitcoin Spinner is good, but I like the Electrum model more. And we need a lightweight client for iPhones, because iPhone suers are usually the early adopters.

And currency conversion built-in would be nice feature for those apps, so that people can easily send money back and forth.

Major crime-syndicate adoption Tongue

A celebrity endorsement would be nice... Kanye rapped about euros as a "safe-haven" currency. If he rapped about bitcoin it would spike interest. Nerds are "in" right now they're "super cool."

Let's talk governance, lipstick, and pigs.

It's gotta blow up sometime.
