No, you wont get banned because It's not against the rules to login from different IP's or have multiple accounts. I never tried browsing through smartphone but why we need app for this If you can browse with smartphone already?

Why do any websites need apps? It's just an awkward and uncomfortable experience and apps make it so much more usable. Full websites/forums just aren't made for viewing on mobile devices. I only make the occasional post from my phone when I'm not at my comp or can't be bothered turning it on etc, but I'd love an app that streamlined the whole experience.

Like you mentioned maximum post per month is 3000, what is the maximum post limit per week ?

Seriously? Surely you'd just divide it by four?

In fairness your trust still is 0: -0 / +0(0) on first glance, but people are rightfully sceptical of trades around here, especially ones involving Apple products (I think there's a sticky somewhere - or there was - that all Apple items for sale are probably scams haha).

Holy shit, when Glenn Beck genuinely tries to understand and ask about Bitcoin instead of dismissing it like everybody else does you know how fucked up things are.

I was actually pleasantly surprised by his views on it. I was getting ready for him to just be an ignorant fuck and dismiss it as 'magic internet money' that is going to fail etc, but he seemed to be really behind it and open to its possibilities.
10707  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there a Forbes bitcoin millionaire/billionaire list or upcoming? on: May 14, 2014, 10:13:56 AM
True, but I wonder when the first bitcoin millionaire (or billionaire) will be included on there? Maybe Satoshi will one day wind up on the list, but I guess without confirmation that he could be several people it'll automatically invalidate him from the list.

If there was a list I would think it would be better to have it in terms of BTC rather than fiat as the value of BTC to fiat fluctuates so significantly. Some of the coins we attribute to Satoshi have to be him from the sheer fact there was no one else mining - but there are some early blocks that could very easily be disputed. I don't see why we couldnt include Satoshi as long as the possibility of it being more than a single person is acknowledged.

True, but it's also possible that he lost access to those coins or is possibly even deceased so it'll be hard to even put an exact figure/value on his ownings.
10708  Other / Politics & Society / Re: An complete argument for same-sex marriages. You can't prove it wrong on: May 14, 2014, 10:06:55 AM
hackjack, all the points that  you given are man's arguments. And the arguments of man kind often go against the commandments of God. Nothing new there.

And this is the only 'real' reason people have a problem with gay marriage. There is no valid argument against it.

On more of a legal level, man may make any kind of law he wants. But in this case of homosexual 'marriage', I like God's law better. It's like a breath of fresh air that just makes sense, just the opposite of man's law on this issue.

Do you agree with all god's laws? Like the ones where we should stone to death certain people? Is that a breath of fresh air and better than our current laws? Thank god not everybody truly takes the bible or the Koran as gospel on these sort of things.

What exactly is a 'secret warrant'? They just took the money and emptied the entire bank account without serving them a warrant or actually telling them about it?

It is necessary to fight terrorists. Because...terrorists.

Ah one of them kinda deals. Surely they were not meant to be exploited or used in such a fashion, especially on American soil? I thought it was still illegal for that sort of stuff?
10710  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there a Forbes bitcoin millionaire/billionaire list or upcoming? on: May 14, 2014, 09:59:19 AM
It will be quite a long time before Forbes will release a rich list and even then it won't include many large stashes that have not been identified. Unlike fiat where asset value can be estimated and it isn't too difficult to work out who owns what - with Bitcoin many of them don't have any name attached and I'd doubt anyone would come forward to prove they actually own the coins.

True, but I wonder when the first bitcoin millionaire (or billionaire) will be included on there? Maybe Satoshi will one day wind up on the list, but I guess without confirmation that he could be several people it'll automatically invalidate him from the list.

Beautiful, smart and passionate. She understands Bitcoin more than the vast majority of people . Especially the second part touches on Bitcoin on a deeper level. Very interesting video.

Not to be a cynic, but did she actually write it though? A lot of channels seem to have their actual content written by men but will get a 'pretty face' just to front it etc. Unfortunately men tend to only click on youtube videos when they’re presented by a woman, usually with her cleavage out on display.
10712  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there a Forbes bitcoin millionaire/billionaire list or upcoming? on: May 14, 2014, 09:53:06 AM
The Bitcoin rich list has stopped working, but I did find this:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=321265.0
(outdated)

Most of that list was never correct in the first place as there was never really any sources, and when there was they were second-hand or speculative at best.

Sending close to $900 to a stranger and losing the ability to return the product just to save $50?

Doesn't seem worth it. OP I think you need to offer a better deal for it to be worth it.

Yeah, plus you should time/name stamp the pictures to prove ownership. Escrow is also a must.

Thanks for playing along everybody!

Where does it say anything about this being a scam PR stunt? And is there any evidence for this or are people just being unjustifiably cynical?

Is it Win or Fail. As I understand the idea of bitcoin is to made banks unusefull? nor becoming the bank itself. 

Read the article or the above comments. It's not actually a bank at all. They're just confusingly calling their ATM machines 'banks'.

I haven't watched the video but psychiatry seems almost like a kind of pseudo-science to me. It's also alarming how easy doctors seem to throw anti-depressants at people, especially when they seem to be nothing more than Placebos for depression/anxiety etc and actually tend to do more harm than good.

Probably advertising and R@D although that is a good question
Who knows they may be one of the first traded stocks on Nasdaq for a Bitcoin based company a few years down the road.

Was gonna ask if they had any plans to offer shares. I'll definitely buy some as I was looking to invest in some Bitcoin companies and I think a company  like bitpay is only going to grow along with Bitcoin.

The prices are not displayed individually but the option to pay in Bitcoin becomes available at checkout. To see if the Australian one accepts them just add something to your cart and check.

That's great news. The first and only times I've ever set up and sent a bank transfer was to purchase coins from Bittylicious. I'll use my debit from now on. So much quicker and easier. I'll probably wait till you accept them in GBP first though.
