So I'll probably just hang on to them in case Bitcoin shoots up in value some day, and I can sell them for real money.
I own ~2.4 (bought them for 10€) but I forgot the password to my encrypted wallet.
And this is why you should keep a txt file with all your passwords uploaded to dropbox, trust me.
0 representation here - I do not own any, though that is reflective to my fiscal status currently though have not owned any previously either. Why I own 0 bitcoins (currently): One aspect I find facinating about bitcoins over normal money is how they can be tracked and every coin can be audited openly down to its creation. Whilst with notes this is possible, tills and other transactions do not note down those serial…

As it stands now it's incredibly hard to find someone selling BTC unless you're willing to mail a copy of your ID over the internet something i would never do.
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.
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.
Yep, same here. Recently used https://bitbargain.co.uk (no affiliation at all) to get myself a couple though, and was surprised just how simple it was.
Are their prices set very much higher than the 'going rate' for bitcoins?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Exactly this. I have some nonzero amount when I mined for 1 afternoon. Technically I don't have zero but I shouldnt be in the same category as people with a thousand dollars worth. With that said.... I said I have zero in the poll.
I think I have .0005 left over in a wallet somewhere. I also said zero. Seeing all this loose change and no easy way to get it out of there I'm wondering if someone can suggest a charity who would accept the measly amounts but use the aggregate for good.
A charity proxy would be cool though, that way people like us have the ability to only donate .0005 and the people with 10,000+ can donate too. Then the proxy converts it to real money and donates it to a particular charity.
I think 0-10 is a too large a range. There's a big difference between having $10 worth (~0.07 BTC) and $1500 worth (~10 BTC). The first is what I have, which is basically play money. The latter is a more significant investment.
