Title: tradebitcoin.com fixed (find local bitcoin traders) Post by: molecular on June 28, 2011, 03:24:49 PM Just thought I'd let people know that http://tradebitcoin.com is back in working condition. It's a google mashup you can use to find local bitcoin exchangers.
I've been pegging the author for a while and he just got the problems fixed in 15 minutes ;). Should the map not show on first load, try shift-reloading. I know the "exchange crisis" is over for now, but as a last resort, having local people to meet and exchange local currency for bitcoins or vice-versa still seems important to me. I've entered myself a while back and 4 people contacted me via skype. I sold bitcoins to two of them. It was fun (meet at starbucks, send coins using ssh through starbucks wifi, cash on table). One cool thing (in my view) of trading "cash 4 cash" locally in real life is that it's compeletely invisible to outsiders, because both transactions are pseudonymous/anonymous to the outside and only the trading parties know of the exchange even happening. So, if you like, go ahead and enter your info on the site or find someone to trade with if you want to buy/sell some BTC.

What exactly do you mean by "spotty"? I noticed it only shows entries that are close to you (determined probably by ip address). I'll point the author here.

Hope there's some pickup in the Dallas area - would love to be a local BTC resource.

I signed up with facebook, but I'm unable to add my details to the map - when I enter my address, the save button only places a blue pin on the map and subsequently my profile remains empty.

I skyped the author about it. The site is not of high priority to him unfortunately. But he's been helpfull before and fixing stuff. I hope he'll get around to looking at it soon. I still think the service is very cool and needed.
