Title: LocalBitcoins.com Site Down:( Looking to sell 0.5 BTC Post by: jpoker272727 on August 03, 2014, 05:10:55 PM I have a long history on localbitcoins with many many trades. The site is currently down. Since I haven't traded anywhere else other than that site, I'm not sure the SAFEST way to trade, but I would like to sell just 0.5 BTC for a vanilla reload pack, western union, moneygram, (some other options could be Amex Bluebird transfer, Google Wallet transfer, Walmart2Walmat, etc.)
If there is a way to have an escrow, and a scenario which both myself and the buyer are at no risk (or minimal as possible), then I will see if anyone would like to buy them. If theres not really a solid way in exchanging, then I'd rather just hang on to them for another day.

Quick update for all of you that aren't online in #localbitcoins-support: Quote [16:43:17] <non2> admins , news ?? EDIT: [16:43:54] <sagei> Did someone take all the coins? [16:46:01] <sagei> Seems like all my coins are gone. [16:46:11] <jeremias> no, looks like server crash [16:46:24] <-- sidiberd (~sidiberd@41.251.129.36) has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [16:46:51] <jeremias> but I'm researching it now, doesn't look like a hack, all servers in a specific datacenter have rebooted [16:47:11] <jeremias> for unknown reason, might be electricity Quote [17:58:02] <jeremias> well, it was electricity problem, and all servers were rebooted [17:59:23] --> sidiberd (~sidiberd@41.251.129.36) has joined #localbitcoins-chat [18:02:45] <coin_trader> well yea, but how long does it all take to boot up? I'm guessing there's more of a process than hitting a button and walking away [18:06:18] <jeremias> yeah, our server setup is quite complicated [18:06:21] <jeremias> ETA 1-2 hours [18:06:39] <coin_trader> gotcha I would do escrow for free if you want me to. However, I have no idea what the risks of those payment methods are, since I cannot/do not use them (European).
