2/7th's is huge.
The last time my interest was piqued I found it so difficult to buy them in the UK (looked like the best way was to wire some money so someone in France…) that I gave up.
For me, it's the chicken + egg problem -- the merchants that sell the stuff I want to buy don't accept them. So I don't have any BTC.
Zero here. I don't own any bitcoins for the same reason I don't own any British pounds or Russian rubles: no reason to.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
I've been trying to set up an exchange here in the UK, but am facing a lot of what I consider anti competitive behaviour from UK banking. I met Vince Cable to talk about it and hopefully the situation will change in the future: http://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinUK/comments/1n99os/met_with_v... Although it's a big mountain to climb so perhaps it's wishful thinking at this stage!
Go talk to Burnley S&L http://www.burnleysavingsandloans.co.uk/about-us/ See if Dave can help.

At time of writing 2/7ths of respondents own > 0 bitcoin. Are there many other new technologies you'd expect 2/7ths of all respondents to use/own? Especially one that doesn't really have a direct use to most consumers yet and high risk for people investing. 2/7th's is huge.
