A couple of weeks ago I'd have said Detroit, but if they really are enforcing those laws they're currently working on, it may hinder Bitcoins development a lot. :-/ It could be Boston.

After Mtgox hacking incidence, I am doubtful if Japan will welcome BTC anymore..it might weaken their currency.

Amsterdam for the liberty, Detroit for the big opportunity.

Every major city.

There you go. That's the easiest answer to predict. I'm not guessing one city will just be the 'center', however, oh well.
I agree somewhat. I don't think we will see "centers" like we do with fiat financial centers. The reason why we see financial centers with fiat is because of banks, and many banks converge in a particular city to conduct a lot of business. Since there are no banks with bitcoin this is unlikely to happen.

Now some places will see a greater level of bitcoin related commerce then other places, but not to the effect that we will see a "center" of bitcoin commerce.

Probably Toronto because its promoting Bitcoin so much with lots of ATMs.

I don't think Tokyo will welcome BTC.

Saigon, gotta start bribing when the bribing is cheap.

There will probably be a few different big hubs for Bitcoin where the legislation is favorable and adoption is big; maybe in the US but more probably in the free world : in Asia

I think Vancouver Canada May become the capital of bitcoin as it had a lot of bitcoin activity and has the first bitcoin ATM.

Too difficult to choose, but i vote for Hong kong and Toronto..

While Toronto is certainly more Bitcoin friendly than US cities, they are extremely tax hungry and are basically in bed with the US so I don't see them becoming a Bitcoin center. Etherium was based out of there but they took off to Switzerland I believe.

My guess is Hong Kong due to favourable regulations. Certainly not any US or European city.

Time is on our side, yes it is!
I can think of numerous places where it should be the center and I can think of many places that could be.  But I think Cali takes the cake they have all the different industries that could benefit from it and I'd think Texas would be a good place for it also.  Sucks I can't add New York to that list...

No way NYC -- honestly, I say no way in the USA, we love control way too much. Having anything out of arm's reach drives the powers-that-be crazy.

I say it's gotta be western/northern Europe -- open-minded and the people there usually can speak English. Cheesy
