Aren't you guys getting tired of all the annoying buzz around Bitcoin already? Do something good for this world and create something of essence, not yet another vehicle for speculators and ugly (personality) people like Barry Silbert and the Winklevii. When I look at those two (three?) alone, I see "greed" and "envy" in all caps! Fred Wilson really lost all my respect after I saw him during the hearing - he's a small little person! He and Paul Graham are like night and day!

It's beyond obvious that 2013 will be the year of Bitcoin growth and 2014 - the year of its demise. I have to agree that the technology has some decent niche applications, but world-changing it is not.
