My plea / request : Make a home assistant a DROP IN replacement for a standard light switch. It has power, its adds functionality from the get-go (smart lighting), it’s placed in a convenient position for the room and no extra wires et

I have written a plain text to base64 encoder here : http://www.getbitcoin.info/assets/misc/base64generator.html Soo.. instead of sharing keys, you can just share keywords and then generate the keys from the keywords. It's just javascript

Anonymity is not really the selling feature of bitcoin - in fact it really only offers pseudo-anonymity. The fact that no-one else can just "print" bitcoins, and that you can transfer funds at internet speed to anybody else anywhere in the
