Oops, thought GLBSE listed their shares for USD.
Will change everything over to BTC.

Not anymore, orig devs split to make Xenforo I believe, now they are suing each other out of existence.
Vbulletin 4 is total garbage

Of all the available forum software phpbb has the least amount of bugs reported (only 5 since 2003-2012) but that really doesn't mean anything. Maybe somebody is hording all their phpbb bugs for future exploits

If they take credit cards on that site just convert your bitcoins to a virtual credit cards
Plenty of people offering this in the currency exchange forum and on the bitcoin wiki

If you backed up the private keys, you can paste them into electrum.dat wallet and get your coins out of Strongcoin. That's the whole benefit of using strongcoin

Facebook thing and 30 day wait won't really prevent fraud. Afterall most crimebots record every keystroke and login so the potential fraudster would already have all Dwolla/FB/everything and can just buy the SSN# from a lookup service.

Bitinstant should crowdsource trusted people to do cash in hand trades in every city and pay an affiliate fee or something No more banks or dwolla middlemen. Sort of a giant hawalla network

The Coin Continuum is an SEO group that sells tools to an established clientel. We basically rent dedicated servers, then sublease the nodes we create on them to users ~$40 - $100 each, depending on their subscription. We are looking to expand to keep up with increasing demand, also to start using Bitcoin securities to move our profits into.

We currently make $3080 for every dedicated server we lease (cost $1800) with DDOS protection.
Turnaround is usually 2-3 weeks until all payments received and we pay dividends when orders are paid.

After costs total profit to be divided between all shareholders is $1280
49% sold shares paid out $627

Once all shareholders have been paid out costs are reinvested and cycle begins again.
If you own all the shares you can expect $627 every 3 weeks, no other investment required. This of course all due to our subscribers paying on time, which can sometimes stretch out to 4 weeks but regardless as funds clear we pay dividends immediately.

We also have another campaign we can run every couple of weeks, which generates $2480 in total profits for all shareholders instead of $1280 at the same cost. We will cycle it in as demand increases.

These services are specialized automated tools and bots to create blogs and youtube accounts en masse and other functions, they are not illegal email or forum spamming methods or cookie stuffing. Admin fees for us are low as we just image the server and good to go, not much support time is required and all clients are already familiar with our tools and how to use them. Product advertising is done on private SEO forums.

We retain 51% of shares, and will sell the remainder.
All profits (no admin fees) after setup costs will be returned to investors in the form of dividend payments, paid out as we receive payments from our clients. Typically every 2 - 3 weeks.

Problems can arise, such as servers failing, power outages, act of god, and other unavoidable problems which results in us having to refund half the payment to the client or sometimes all the payment but this is very rare, only 4 reported occaisons in 5 months of us operating.

Total shares: 4000
Shares held by company: 2040
Shares to be sold: 1960 (valued @ 0.2BTC/share)

Upon all shares sold will take approximately 1 week to start the campaign, then it will be a normal cycle of dividend payouts.

I have a Belize corporation and can open a bank account any country anywhere in the world.
What would be the best option to withdraw from Cryptoxchange. Westpac? Technocash?

Also, is that $5 fee + .6% for any outgoing wire anywhere? If so great success.

Thanks.

Just use trustcash and deposit cash in a bank.
Better than waiting 30 days for Dwolla, or that really stupid 'Social networking' requirement.

It was awesome both my parents worked until late at night. I could intercept report cards, suspension letters from school and even got my sister to intercept suspension phone calls

After school I would invite people back to smoke weed in a giant circle of 30+ students it was great having zero parental supervision

GLBSE forum down Nginx 504 bad gateway
Also you guy's are using 0.7.65 ... you know 1.0.15 is out right??
Then again maybe you're using the OpenBSD latest package for nginx or something.

Anyways +1 GLBSE and MPEX announce forum ftw

Nobody I've seen in Canada requires the chip. Everybody is getting a new card w/a chip but there's still plenty of standard mag stripe readers around in case the customer doesn't have a chip. In fact every single store, and every private street ATM I've ever seen still uses the standard swipe model.

That Yagi-Uda antenna is crazy. I could see somebody like Max Vision setting it up in a hotel in my city and capturing hundreds of cards per hour, and now mintchips.

Yeah I read they just debit your account the interest, then if nothing happens take forever to collect.
Their Dwolla "instant" system in Iowa which allows you instant funding to your dwolla account (no waiting 2-3 days) seems to enable fraudsters in whole new ways as well. Can't trust any online banking it can always be used for evil

I 100% agree

So far the trust system used here and at #bitcoin-otc has almost eliminated all fraud.
The new bitcoin market MPEX is also based on this system. IDs, 2 factor auth, IP tracing is all meaningless in 2012 seems GPG auth is almost invincible as the people that use it typically don't use Windows exploitable OS, don't click on obvious side channel attacks in their email box, know what they are doing and all around a good system so far.

I live right beside vbce.ca if you want gold/silver or any currency from rials to australian money I can get it for cost if you want to pay the insurance + tracking to mail it. I go there all the time.

Correction, a couple of months ago
http://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2012/02/14/cryptome-org-hacked-into-serving-up-blackhole-exploit-kit/

They claim 2,863 visitors at risk, probably a lot more. Usually the kit is used for side channel targeted attacks not an open net catching everybody

Dwolla now offers an instant loan service for up to $500. Don't even need to rob people's bank accounts, just make a new account using their stolen information you bought for $10 on a crime forum and apply for credit. Spend $500 to get bitcoins and they won't know for a month anything is wrong.

Cryptome.org was hosting black hole exploit kit for 4 days a couple weeks ago before anybody figured it out. Who knows how many thousands of people were backdoored

Using phished ebay accounts. or stolen through black hole exploit kit or the other dozens of crime bots, (or just buy them by the hundreds for cheap on crime forums) make listings for crazy discount laptops or electronics and convince your mark to go to Bank of America or wherever the bitcoin exchanger has an account and make a deposit. Or make craigslist ads.

Then go make a buy order on the bitcoin site. They get cash, you run off with bitcoins.

People will go do it because the scammer is excellent at convincing them how much safer bank deposit is and how the laptop will be sold otherwise unless they go drop cash right now. When I worked @ ebay years ago every single day some variation of this scam fooled a buyer.  The bank reverses the charges because none of them respect digital currency exchanges and there will be a 60yr old guy screaming in the bank he was scammed with the cops beside him so they just refund and claw the funds back.

If the buyer has to write 'Not for auctions or craigslist' on the receipt they might think twice about what is going on. Either way the scammer will move on to somebody else's exchange not yours. Trustcash basically eliminates this too

This scam started after western union agents started preventing scams when buyers showed up to wire to Romania or somewhere. "Did you buy something on ebay? Yeah you're being scammed". Bank doesn't ask questions just takes the money.

Even a cash deposit can be frauded without taking certain measures, like having people write 'Not for auctions' on the deposit receipt and scanning/sending, or using Trust Cash. If you just have a bare account taking anybody's deposits nothing to stop scammers on ebay with stolen accounts convincing people to go there and drop money thinking they are getting a cheap deal. Banks will unbelievably reverse the transaction later if the victim is loud and persistent enough. Happened to many a LR exchanger over the years

Canadian bitcoin company had ridiculous low EMT limits yet still ended up with their account seized from too many fraudulent transactions recently. Never underestimate the motivation of a scammer with access to the black hole exploit kit and a lot of time to set up accounts to do miniature frauds by the hundreds.

CONSEQUENCES will never be the same

I like the idea of a bitcoin mag. Problem is even Time magazine has been reduced to near pamphlet size and is still losing money. Newspapers aren't making money and cram ads on virtually every page almost on top of each other.

Should also be noted Vice magazine has scaled back publishing to concentrate on VBS TV and other projects. Publishing periodicals is doomed, unless it's some sort of corporate trade magazine with guaranteed business subscribers. 2600 magazine sold more issues the first month of releasing it to Kindle then they did in a year of publishing hardcopy. The *only* reason they have a physical copy is because of censorship laws back when Phrack was constantly raided/shut down by the Feds. Somehow printed media is covered under free speech laws whereas digital copies aren't. If your magazine won't be pushing the edge no point in printing it.

I also don't understand why you need Wired-esque extremely quality paper and publishing. A hackeresque mag like 2600 with full color cover and black and white everything else should be good enough. Vice Magazine originally was black and white with CMYK newspaper color until they could gather more advertisers to go full glossy, and they strategically dropped their free issues in areas advertisers want people to pick it up like hipster clothing stores, cafe's, bars/clubs ect. You couldn't go to a borders and get Vice it was too risky to sell.

Remember nobody buys magazines anymore. Even National Geographic is hurting.
People go to Chapters/Barnes & Knoble and just leaf through them and put them back on the shelf unless there's really something in there you need, like amazing code to build something awesome or unique copy you can't find anywhere else. Everything in the Bitcoin mag so far can be found with googling. Interviews are great, but won't sell.

I would run this as an innovative site updated as much as possible, and mass print free B&W copies with a color cover using ad revenue or crowdsource people to do it and drop them wherever.

YMMV of course. Maybe the first couple of issues will be a smash but I don't see anybody picking them up after that unless content is wildly diversified, and there's awesome amazing anonymity how-to's and inciteful anarchist mini manifestos to get people to respond. You could also try the 2600 method, advertising is free as long as you subscribe. Then every month you have guaranteed subscribers. Having guaranteed subscribers list is where the bulk of the business model comes from, with that you can get funding and a slew of other benefits.

Protip: If your country offers grants for unique publications I would go after them too. Canada you can $25k/month funding for nearly anything as long as there's some sort of Canadian content in there. Not that I want to kill your project just am playing the old man that is at the deserted gas station warning the new people that there's boogeymen up the road

Digital would be so much easier, cheaper, less stressful and sustainable. Cut out all the middlemen just upload your finished copy and watch it sell away, offer a print on demand if ppl want it. Your site could also do online casino and sports betting ads something you could get extradited and arrested for if you have some in the print version and ship it to US stores.

Didn't know bitcoin-central did EMTs and cash CIBC deposits
They're crazy for accepting EMT deposits, canadianbitcoins just had their EMT accepting account frozen due to fraud and they had tiny limits yet fraudsters still found ways around it. Should drop that and just do EMT withdraw
