Not really what is needed IMO, and I'd encourage you to rethink your plan but at the same time it's your choice to make.   If you're on conventional pharms though, you might consider getting off those and onto something a little more helpful before making such a permanent step.

Hm. How about a bitcoin funded suicide? I'm starting to think I could do it to give publicity to bitcoin. Or would that be bad publicity? Hmm... I would just need to collect donations for the purchase of a firearm and a HD webcam. Set up a live stream... coordinate a time, all golden.... erm, crimson.

Hopefully never, the main purpose of bitcoins is to make your funds fully anonymous, so no on actually even knows you even have them.

Do they already take hitman jobs at SR?!  Shocked

No, they explicitly don't. Bitcoin would be an almost ideal way for an assassin to get paid, however. For this reason, I suspect the covert intelligence community might want to secretly thwart legislative attempts to shut Bitcoin down. 

Given the current system is designed with trapdoors specifically for their use at the expense of all other participants, why would they see bitcoin as anything other than a threat? 

The status quo is to their benefit, you should expect an exciting first few years of BTC as the current system flails wildly in the throes of combined denial/insolvency

Assuming Satoshi Nakamoto really a. actually existed and b. disappeared by his own choice.
How many bitcoins did he mine during development of the theory, and where are they now?
What about that never-touched cache of 1500 bitcoins mined in 2009, that turned up during the MtGox hack series of events?

The first bitcoin murder will happen on a prime time procedural cop drama.

What kind of question is this?

Anyway, I think it already happens. With all the bitcoin money spend at Silk Road, I bet some of their customers can get an overdose and died. Hence, it's all bitcoin's fault! Blame bitcoin!

after the first bitcoin website, forum, lobby organization, tv show etc...

the first bitcoins murder will come sooner or later.

maybe two businessmen have a serious disagreement on some business arrangement based on bitcoins transactions?

i have a hunch it will happen in tokyo though...

ENOUGH ALREADY with the mtgox threads.
