mt gox has actually been more or less fine for me.

Hi

I'm interested in buying mining shares through bitfunder. They say they can only take payment through WeExchange. The WeExchange site doesn't look great. I'm just wondering if anybody knows if its legit.

Also, anyone had good experiences with bitfunder?

Thanks

Brilliant mate. Really helpful.

The bitcoin economy needs to be built from the ground up so it will take a long time. The good things is that the good people here can help build that economy.

Congratulations. Here's to many more.

thanks

Could I ask a question as an addendum?

My coins are all in mt gox. If I wanted to do business with bitcoin, say lend them to people on these forums, would I need to withdraw them from gox to my own wallet on my computer or would there be a better way to do this?

"how many girls did you have?"

0.55 in my wallet and 0.754 on Mt Gox.

Don't ask.

Thanks

So I give out my public key when one is to pay me bitcoins. I suppose if I never see my private key then there is no risk of me giving it out.

"It is a crypto-token, designed to be investment, preservation of wealth."

My thought is that at least its not pretending to be a real attempt at creating an alternative currency.

Thanks but where do I find those keys for my reference.

I've established that one address, or "key", is in the recieve coins section of my wallet. Is this the public key?

Confused I am. What is the difference between the public and private key?

Or of course

Actually you shouldn't have told me. Now I can e-beg people mercilessly 

Thanks. You guys are cool.

So the address in "receive coins" is my wallet address?

How do I find my bitcoin address?

I have the wallet. I go into address book and it seems to let me create one with "new address". The next field has two attributes, "label" and "address". I take it that I create the address in the address field. I understand the address should begin with 1 or 3 so I put in 1 and then a bunch of letters and numbers to fill out the form. I am then told that what I have put in is not a valid bitcoin address.

Any help appreciated.

Nah I'm not an old miner. In fact I'm not mining now due to an annoying technical issue (opencl.dll not found on mining clients). I just bought mine when they were cheap. I'd maybe like to give mining a go but feel I've missed the boat.

You've clearly done very well mining though.

I really feel for the guy who spend 10k bitcoins on a pizza that I heard about. 

How do you trade in and out?  I never understood that day trading stuff.
