Has anyone else noticed that the interest rates on CL have changed since yesterday? No more crazy levels, now a nice mainstream 3.5%. Also CDs are now overnight, 1 day loans. So TF continues to make changes to the site even today. What to make of this? My CD still shows the old higher rates.

*edit: sorry, mis read it. .0365% apr! In other words, nothing!

TF, i just send you an email right now,

acciddently sent email both please ignore the 1st email(2nd email with more details titles) from me...hope to get update from you soon...
He's processing through payments but he will get to your emails! He's gotten to mine and I've given him my viewpoints and he's been handling it ok so far... well as ok as you get XD

You received coins back for inputs deposits, not coinlenders deposits, right?
I did not have anything in Inputs at the time, so I'm only waiting on a CL refund but Inputs was/is being taken care of as seen here: https://blockchain.info/address/1GLadosEkeAsLReqS3yQ51E1R3wVtbJCDF
Also in the other thread Giga posted he got 30something percent back.

yes, I saw that, thanks. it's something watching that balance decline....

Either way, I'd like to know ASAP how CoinLenders refunds will be handled.  I was only using my Inputs wallet as a gateway into CoinLenders.  And now it's impossible to actually make a withdrawal out of CL.  It registers on the CL side, but not on the Inputs side.

I had a look at CoinLenders and all my CDs are missing.

My coinlenders account page looks fine. CDs are there.


.... at least the numbers on the screen are pretty....

I don't understand how people who made deposits to inputs (then onto coinlenders) well after the attack are out money.

The amount has been withdrawn in full by other users. There was a limit designed to prevent much of that, but it was per transaction and people got around it.


Then this puts coinlender customers in the same camp as the inputs customers. We should be included in this same pool and not be handled at a later time. (unless there are other coinlender-specific assets in play, like incoming funds from outstanding loans, etc).

indeed, if there were 4100 coins in the hot pocket, he should easily have 10k in cold storage.
That'd be great, but it's not the case. The majority of the coins were on the 'hot pocket' which was hacked Lips sealed.

Why did this change from a few days ago, when people were complaining about a too-small "hot pocket"?
The hack occurred on 2013-10-26.

and you just now noticed?
If you actually read about what has been going on instead of jumping to the "Post" button, the attack was detected in hours but it was only announced today as we investigated and explored our options.

I have many problems with this.

  • "We" refers to one person, am I correct?
  • Why were deposits and withdrawal not disabled?
  • If the hack occurred in October, how is it possible API keys were compromised in November and money was stolen?
  • Why was the "hot pocket" not immediately emptied after the hack?

I don't understand how people who made deposits to inputs (then onto coinlenders) well after the attack are out money.

got 4 coins on coinlenders... this is a huge hit to me. fuck. also, how can coinlenders be linked with inputs?!

tradefortress runs them both.

it looks like they basically had pooled funds.

I also have received the same email regarding coinlenders.
I hope there is something left for us.

my first bitcoin catastrophe.

115  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Introducing Ripple Currency: DYM on: November 04, 2013, 09:15:34 PM
If people are wondering how to issue new custom currencies in the ripple web client, it is really easy, almost counter-intuitively so.

Say there is an issuer and a receiver. The issuer announces a ripple address and a 3-letter currency name. (This doesn't even have to take place for the next steps to work).
In the Ripple web client the receiver goes to Advanced->Trust and clicks the +
The receiver then adds the issuer's Ripple address, the amount of currency to trust, and the 3 letter currency name.
(note: it will say USD by default, with a pulldown showing other currencies. Just click in the USD field. delete those letters and type in the name of the new currency -- that's it)
Then click grant trust. Now you are ready to accept the issuers IOUs denominated in the new currency.

If the issuer has the receiver's ripple address, the issuer can now send currency denominated in that new currency. Here's how.
Click send, type the receiver's ripple address in, change the currency from XRP to the 3 letter currency name you chose, type in how many units to send, and click send. That's it.
Your account page will show a negative balance of that currency type, but there is no problem in running that deficit. It's an IOU.
Also, your transaction history will show the receiver's ripple address as granting you trust for the new currency unit.
And just like that you have issued your own promissory currency unit.
Both parties do have to have XRPs to do these transactions and trust assignments.

I have used the DYM in several ways: mailing one down to TTBit and getting credited, trading in and out of it through the web client. It all worked great.
A really cool implementation.

6. Burn truecrypt traveler exe, bitaddress.org html file, encrypted file, onto a CD/DVD.

I think optical media is only expected to last for 10 years or so before the plastic starts breaking down. Some USB sticks are also only guaranteed to retain their data for 10 years (or less!). It's something to keep in mind if you are going for very long term storage, physically written down/engraved seems to be the safest bet.

I just finished migrating data from over 50 CD-Rs that we're all going on 20 years old. They were all OK. FWIW.
117  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: bitfinex questions on: October 28, 2013, 04:18:25 PM
A lot of the particularities of the interface stem from the "3 wallet" structure: The basic one is the exchange wallet, used for making simple buys of btc. These you own outright and can withdraw normally. The deposit wallet is for funds that you want to make available for other traders to borrow -- either USD or BTC. The margin wallet holds funds to back trades made with loans taken from other users' deposit wallets. This is the heart of the exchange, the flow of funds between deposit accounts and margin accounts stays internal to the bitfinex market. 
118  Economy / Speculation / Re: BITSTAMP eXchange wall Observer. second biggest and best exchange on: October 26, 2013, 03:48:02 AM
On the subject of bitfinex, investors are also using bitfinex to place dark (hidden) buy and sell orders, which contributes to the low depth, and when someone is doing a market order, the dark order doesn't fill in on time.

The dark orders on Bitfinex are only for order of 500 coins or more, afaik -- whale territory.
That is one thing I like about campbx, there you can do dark orders at any size. Since often there is often a big bid/ask spread there, I like to hide out with a dark bid just above the open bid. You can pick off cheaper market sells that way.

119  Economy / Speculation / Re: BITSTAMP eXchange wall Observer. second biggest and best exchange on: October 26, 2013, 03:42:25 AM
It's because stamp has low depth and buyers insist on doing doing massive market orders that cause $15 of slippage for no reason. I guess they're new to investing, or using bitfinex and it's being triggered by stop orders etc. On the subject of bitfinex, investors are also using bitfinex to place dark (hidden) buy and sell orders, which contributes to the low depth, and when someone is doing a market order, the dark order doesn't fill in on time.

I do think there is a bit of a mismatch between bitstamp and bitfinex in this regard. bitstamp is full of small orders, but margin trading on bitfinex often happens in larger blocks. These get triggered via stop or dumped up or down, the bitfinex book often has larger order sizes, but its a lot "gappier".  Different mindsets between the two exchanges. It was better this spring when bitfinex link to both bitstamp and gox. (but I understand why they dumped gox).
120  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Using the blockchain as a method for assigning ownership of digital artworks? on: October 26, 2013, 03:28:05 AM
Hi,

There are certainly many options to accomplish this. All of the solutions you linked are good, but I'd like to let you know that another option exists: Florin coin.

This coin enables embedding 140-character permanent messages into the blockchain, which are currently being used for a number of things, such as a color coin system (similar but not related to Colored Bitcoins) where users can create contracts that represent ownership of non-coin things.

This system would be perfect for what you're describing, and is being worked on at the moment. If you want, please send me a PM here or email me (support at colorcoin dot org) to discuss more. I'd be more than happy to help you reach your goal using the Florin blockchain. Our aim is to provide a solution that is easy for users to understand and deploy quickly, while retaining the fully decentralized and secure architecture of the blockchain.

You can view a live demo in my signature. Please be advised that there is no javascript in use on any of my sites, so no-script (and other similar addons that prevent tracking and annoying javascript vulnerabilities) will not reduce your experience whatsoever.

Thanks,

metacoin

THat is pretty interesting. I'll have to check that out. Is there only one message per coin? or can you continually chain messages into coins?
