FYI, you might want to check your professional profile. It seems it may have been goofed again.

Seems OK to me. Did you notice anything particular that looked odd?

Look at your user icon next to your messages. I see the normal 'user' icon.
EDIT: You also do not have the 'professional' badge on your user page.

Does anyone use Bitcoin[^] and, if so, for what purpose?

Exiting? Sounds suicidal. I'd much rather go somewhere exciting.

Risk of death, chance for vast riches - sounds like an adventure to me!
(albeit an adventure I'd rather happened to someone else...)

A money that you can use to pay someone without any intermediary. (As good old cash)
A money that you can transfer as easily as a post message on a forum. (As good old web wire transfer)
A money whose supply can't be manipulated by anyone. (As good old gold)
These are the three rules that make this money such a big deal and breakthrough.
If you don't believe it, you can read about the theory behind it, and read the source code of the protocol on github. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin[^]
I would add the following to really understand these three axioms I defined :
Without axiom 1, why don't you just use USD with banking card or wire transfer ?
Without axiom 2, why don't you just buy real gold ?
Without axiom 3, why don't you just use World Of Warcraft coins instead of BTC ?
People lost money with the Mt Gox scandal because they traded the axiom 1 and 3 for the sake of convenience. (Yes, Mt Gox Bitcoins were not real bitcoin, and thus, could be printed by Mt Gox. Such scheme worked as long as people did not exchange their Mt Gox BTC to real BTC or USD in mass... as what currently happens with our national currencies)
Mt Gox is not broke because of a hack. (official excuse) But because of a bank rush.

Very nicely said, thats true and next big revolution in the transfers.

Just added explanation to the response in case some people are not convinced about bitcoin because of the Mt Gox affair.

I thought all Bitcoin mines were able to print their own currency. How was Mt Gox different?
How do I know if a source is not legitimate?
