/ Thanks for the post. I understand your fiutsratron with people mis-quoting the actual words of Dr. Mehrabian. However regardless of the true' percentages, communication still is more a matter of how' you say something, not what' you say. This is easily understood as our voice tone and non-verbal communication (which I'm sure you will agree is a lot more than just body language) create much more of an attitude, feeling, vibe etc. than the mere chosen words. That is also why the easiest form of mis-communication takes place in emails, texts and posts. It is very hard to relay a sender's true feelings this way. This is why emoticons are so popular. At the end of the day, in my opinion, the 7-38-55 can be thrown out if you like, but not the approx. division of how we communicate.Thanks for the great post keep up the good work.

This max amount is, by the way, one of the hintgs I find weird and impractical about the BTC. It’s supposed to be an international currency available to everyone. There’s almost 7 billion people in the world right now, which means the average BTC per person if divided would be 0.003. You should read a bit more about bitcoins before you start commenting if the value of bitcoins is too high, they can be divided into very small pieces. the explosive increase in value will also be the fall of the BTC I’m afraid. People have started to buy bitcoins as if they were stocks because of the rapid growth. It’s kind of like a legal version of insider trading People who do that are missing the point of bitcoin, which is to be used primarily as a currency, and they will suffer as the value of the currency fluctuates. As for the comparison with insider trading, note that insider trading is illegal because it involves the insider profiting from knowledge from inside the tent that the general market doesn't have yet (i.e. it is unfair). Anyone can buy bitcoins, and no-one knows which way the price will go (they may have a theory, but that's just speculation, not knowledge), so it is *nothing* like insider trading.Your final point, about liquidity, is important though. If there are lots of bitcoins, and nothing to spend them on, sooner or later your point will come true people will want to convert to dollars and the conversion rate will collapse. However, there are increasingly a number of hintgs to spend them on. Furthermore, there are many hintgs (e.g. online virtual goods, in game currencies) that have limited real-world value, but that people pay for and that rise in value over time even though people can never use them or convert them to dollars.
