Last night I talked to my friend's bro who's very much ~in~ the tech industry
He told me he bought 10 bitcoins when the price was at $200 and sold at $1000
Good man
Also told me about his plans for a [REDACTED UNDER NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT] which I thought was really interesting

whoops my bad
JPMorgan Chase has filed a US patent application for a computerised payment system that resembles some aspects of Bitcoin, the controversial virtual currency. Like Bitcoin, JPMorgan’s proposed system would allow people to make anonymous, electronic payments over the internet, without having to reveal their name or account numbers or pay a fee, according to the patent application. [...] JPMorgan’s proposed system involves creating “virtual cash” that would sit in an online wallet reminiscent of the computer files that hold Bitcoins on behalf of their users.The JPMorgan system would also create a public record of transactions made using the technology – a feature that would appear to mirror Bitcoin’s use of “blockchain”, a massive block of code stored across a peer-to-peer network of computers that acts as a public ledger of all Bitcoin transactions.

I hope this turns out like early-mid-stage internet, where every company will suddenly have consultants telling them they need "bitcoin presence" and they'll come up with all these pointless uses of bitcoin-like technologies. Like Kellogs will come out with FrostedCoins where you get like .25-cent value secure virtual coupons for more frosted flakes that you have to go through an arduous process to redeem.

(Vague uniformed speculation:)
Well Facebook just killed their own currency (Credits), which was basically that idea, trying to trap more cash within the platform (equivalent of gift cards, most of which are never redeemed, hence they keep the money).
Afaik the JPM/Chase scheme is intended as a payment system to compete with Visa et al, applicable to the real world and not just discounts within a closed trade loop. Duplicate a currently open-source thing, build out an infrastructure for it, take ownership of it (a la Microsoft or any number of tech giants), presto - they are the new Visa/Paypal/Western Union. Could see savings accounts at Chase offering higher rates in that currency, etc as an initial incentive to get people in door (like offering $500 for opening an account today). They might even push it as an investment/speculation vehicle in itself. Unlike Bitcoin Chase exists in the material world and has offices, advertising, etc, so can push it hard if need be. Big challenge with Bitcoin as it stands is converting back into $ - not as much of a problem given a vast chain of brick and mortar banks

no no no. a bit coin is a long string of letters, numbers and symbols. just start typing randomly and break the resulting strings into longish pieces, then copy those into the folder named 'wallet'. as simple as that.

― am0n, Tuesday, 10 December 2013 21:58 (ten years ago) link
that's risky though because each bitcoin has a unique id, so you risk typing a string someone else has already typed. To avoid that, use http://www.bitcoinstringchecker.com
If the bitcoin string is already taken, e.g. "1-2-3-STEVE-O!" it will even suggest other, non-taken strings, e.g. 1-2-3-STEVE-O!7826r*n&llp1
