This is hardly a baseless accusation. This is my balance http://i58.tinypic.com/2db8gp0.pngAs you can clearly see it shows 0BTC and 0USD. I did withdraw the BTC, the first time the email came in like 5 hours late and had to be confirmed within 10 minutes which I obviously couldn't do since I don't live next to the computer, the second time I managed to confirm the withdrawal but didn't get anything. As you can clearly see the person has claimed that the funds were sent when you can see in the address with any public chain explorer that it is not the case, this is lying/scamming plain and simple, whether due to dumbfuckery on the side of the support or intentional. |

Proof: (read bottom up) Patrick replied: Hi Mac, Thank you for your email again There is no Coin Tx ID of the refund as we deposit via our system.. Please go to Funds Management> History and there is a deposit 0.04BTC onto your ANX account on 2014-08-25 13:24:36. Patrick Customer Support Team ANX ANX releases the ANX Bitcoin Debit Card!

Best regards, Max. AUG 25, 2014 | 06:22PM HKT Patrick replied: Hi Max, Unfortunately we can only send back to your ANX BTC wallet address. Thank you Patrick Customer Support Team ANX ANX releases the ANX Bitcoin Debit Card! For details, refer to http://debitcard.anxintl.comAUG 25, 2014 | 05:59PM HKT Max Hello Patrick, Please do send the refund to 1G7BbkkJiMEq7T9YP3cXPMkTgR6roZA9xK Thanks! Best regards, Max. I have filed a request for a card and provided all the necessary papers, ANX have refused to issue a card despite the documents that are per their requirements. Now they are withholding the withdraw and lying about sending it. I have been over with them on this in the past 12 days exchanging multiple emails a day, these guys are a joke, I would certainly not recommend using them. The withdraw request was for 0.04BTC minus transaction fees, as you can clearly see the address that I withdrew to has no such transaction (or any transaction in the last 7 days). |

when girls really start using it, then we know that bitcoin is real. girls are very safe and cautious with money.
to make bitcoin popular with girls, it will have to be a lot easier to use, and maybe get a pink wallet.
Clinging to stereotypes won't help acceptance among females. They are perfectly capable when they want. Surely we would need to have a wallet with beer images and naked girls to gain adoption among men? |

Is there any tool that can give me the X number of the addresses with the biggest balances in most altcoins via the JSON-RPC interface?
I don't know of any with altcoins, but there is http://bitcoinrichlist.com/top100 I'm sure you know of that, I guess maybe someone new to bitcoin will see this post and be interested by that. I am looking for a script, not some website, that can do JSON-RPC calls and calculate everything from the chain locally. |

You have a fundamentally flawed way of thought that stems from a low financial intelligence.
I bet you think that early adopters were rewarded dis-proportionally or didn't deserve their coins as well right? The ability to detect promising technologies is VERY hard work, try your luck in the altcoin announcment section and be an early adopter for another coin. Most people will bitch and moan about the unfairness of early adopters but will never invest a cent into any of the promising altcoins.

To steal any of my bitcoins through broken cryptography, you'd first have to completely reverse the RIPEMD-160 hash function to determine what SHA-256 result was used as its input. Then you'd have to completely reverse the SHA-256 function to determine what public key was used as its input. Then you'd have to solve the discrete logarithm problem for ECDSA with the Secp256k1 curve to find the private key.
Agree with your post Danny, but as academic discussion, are you sure this (quoted) is a precise way to describe the cryptography? My understanding was that the ECDSA is the critical piece here, not the SHA-256 hash. For instance, if the k value is known (which would be a faulty implementation of ECDSA), then that is all that's necessary to break the elliptic curve cryptography... (the SHA-256 doesn't matter, and you certainly don't have to reverse it). Also, the first step in the DSA is: e=Hash(m), and I thought m is publicly known. I could definitely be wrong though... thoughts? It depends on whether someone has spent from that address once already or not, if he didn't then SHA-256 and RIPEMD-160 need to be broken as well. |

Thanks for the reply, so what does hard fork entail? Would it be able to resolve the initial problem though?
The network will take up all of the damage that happened up until the moment of the hardfork, after that moment everything will be back to normal unless the new algo will have a backdoor as well. That's a very optimistic scenario. You forgot the part where everyone panics and sells because they don't want their life's savings stolen. We could roll back to a point in the blockchain where the party didn't begin to exploit it thus no damage would be done. Of course being an intellectual myself my projections are based on the assumption that the vast majority of Bitcoin users are capable of independent thought and have some minimal intelligence which is a rather wild assumption, otherwise it is impossible to say what will really happen. You can never overestimate the stupidity of the masses. Of course everyone could panic sell and the bullshit would hit the fan and spray all our white walls with shit, would be an ideal time to buy though. |

Or what would happen if improved cryptography comes along, how would the protocol deal with this? Would a layer on top of the current protocol be enough to patch it up or will Bitcoin die?
It could very well already be broken. It would allow the organization that has the backdoor to potentially double spend, reverse transactions, issue coins and so on, depending on how wide the backdoor is. If people would catch on to it then Bitcoin will be hardforked and everything will resume as if nothing happened. |

Sounds incredibly stupid to begin with, why would you give someone your funds unless that someone helped you in acquiring them (which women rarely do)?

What the hell is the password for the VM on http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/GitianVBox/?I looked inside the file and tried various combinations of AAAAB3NzaC1kc3MAAACBAKWiSPB32SKCDOEP9C9yz7RtAtz8t9SIT2sJ3lns9VIACA46mq7VfdDg7Jc bf4j8i9yOEzlkMCG0+ropWeByfUHlGU6DQyehH5qn8QWonXwpuQwBUOBSs5pdwwGPXudDAnSSzqS8pOuH7fnnyqtBoyQnzPHtAPjkCm16v8ZCQL6jAAAAFQCMmmWCYBX3Z0z7Yg4wi/E1xyA6ewAAAIBtCA8bgQrjvdH2M45kvwCebe/p+ieiDhOZqtzOkPpxyVCMEUf5WHh0TdUDTJMGhAc/YhH2A6HF7q5hMuse5g5+0j0fpcXaOR/xrn6bktFHHKZWwWS2EO/Z+Ciotso3fmXnl7Nq9fJYRJNHMNICFPi2RSZyUC2RxtIPSP87k2zy3wAAAIAk2y9frCS+NXnP1D9A6BuWkpVwBdeL4dL8KVGpMIyCfzeo8GT2bDtCm7Vf0/I8udDtjtQiYlk1SjKQzah4BGrEShHh4lEgZ4vYF0AxLEBn4Chtv8GkTThWZIYck3KasakkkZdHllkNBq6/I8XLA49OaINO9DHl9d1kOeNUbGDtHw== gavin@U64 and even gavin as username and U64 as password and the opposite and it didn't work.

I wouldn't suggest purchasing with paypal as people would think you are doing it to scam as you can do a chargeback.
I never charge back however, that's the point, I have bought countless times and show me one post of someone saying I charged back. With red mark no one going to sell you BTC through paypal better try virwox.com
I understand that point, however in my defense the bad reputation was given to me with no basis by clearly stupid individuals. |

I have traded for Paypal previously with this account, you can search through my posts. I am willing to deal with reputable members and not new members.
Cheers.

anyone holding over 10 bitcoin today will probably have 1 million USD (in today's purchasing power) in 10-20 years.
most of the fiat pundits who mock bitcoin today will be eating their hat when the USD finally implodes.
be glad you are lucky enough to be here in this moment in time when bitcoin is first invented, it will be quite a story to tell...

Communist? LOL
It's mostly the U.S. (e.g. fake capitalists) trying to centralize BTC under the pretense of anti-terrorism.

some ppl say with the whole electricity bill of the whole miners you could end the world hunger.
/discus
You could solve the world hunger by selling all of the submarines that the U.S. has, they are mainly used for corporate reason to steal data, concepts etc so the change wouldn't be noticeable by the average American. Now the U.S. is the reason for world hunger. |

How about you sell that shit on ebay and then donate to Seans Outpost instead

The idea is that someone would try writing in a part of their private key to check if it is present in the database, then SNAP, the owner has got a partial private key, even if you search for the first 40 characters it will still give the owner an incredibly significant edge over trying to guess a private key randomly.
Hopefully no one is stupid enough to type in their whole private key in the search box....
