Namecoin is not controlled by anyone in particular. If it grows in demand and people want the inflationary feature (or anything else), it will be implemented by the network.

I keep mine in a brain wallet. I can lose my house and my bank account, but my coins will always be in my head (and anyone else's head I share it with). That's something to think about.

Yeah, we're at the center of everything we can observe. That seems to make sense. It might seem the same way from the point of view of a neutrino =)

Except if you're rich, like HSBC banksters. No matter how many rules you set up, it'll never be fair.

Just letting you know, trustless mixing means no central operator. Technically they could do this down the line. But it'll be very difficult to enforce as bitcoin is a global currency. Your laws may not apply to my country, and everyon

Nice, I like it! Pretty easy to use. Only problem is that I couldn't download any file =) When I try downloading a file, it just shows a green box saying it downloaded.

Trustless mixing will make this nearly impossible for the Feds.

I agree. People will soon start seeing more and more responsibility over time as more bugs and bad practices get exposed, and more competitors start getting involved to solve existing issues. You can be sure this problem won't happen a

There are clients, like Electrum and MultiBit, that don't require downloading the whole blockchain. The average person should be using these, IMO, not trusting any e-wallets.

There is always an incentive to make a product better and as cheap as possible in order to make a profit. That's how the free market works. Your experience shows you that government intervention, which is so prevalent in most markets,

I read that the browser autocompletion plugins from KeePass work with KeePassX, but I've never tested it.

The free market takes care of all your points, except the first one, which isn't a big deal, really. - Lost coins? Analysis can make good estimations of how many coins are lost. The market price will adjust. - Yes, it puts down concern

What do you think of partnering with Coinbase or Bitpay to allow bitcoin payments to be deposited into the "escrow" account as USD? The only question would be how refunds would work, but certainly there can be a solution to that.
