 Aaah! Tcl! I haven't even looked at that code before, and unfortunately fpgaminer is swamped with other stuff right now... On the X6500, I'm using the firmware from LX150_makomk_speed_Test, with the clock at to 125 MHz. The software is completely different of course but the FPGA interface is still JTAG, just through an FTDI chip instead of the Xilinx platform cable. I don't know why that bitstream wouldn't work... same result as thirdlight gets for me. maybe the "core interface" or whatever changed? can we use x6*00 software for x5000? |

1 - cause with 1 coin from 1, I can soon buy option 2 and enough of option 3 to wipe my ass with until the end of time. *buys 1 bitcoin I hope you're right  I'm not sure about the silver, that could be worth a lot, too. I'm sure however, about being able to buy enough FIAT currency to wipe my ass with for just 1 BTC at some point. Looking forward to that. |

1 - cause with 1 coin from 1, I can soon buy option 2 and enough of option 3 to wipe my ass with until the end of time. *buys 1 bitcoin I hope you're right I've been thinking about how to "bring money online", because everything was going "online" back in the 90s with tremendous success. Nowadays it's hard to imagine our global society without the internet. I did not succeed in finding a way to solve double-spend without having to say: "well, everyone will just have to trust me". So I knew the problem was hard and I actually wondered why no trustworthy banking authority would facilitate this. How naive of me. When I saw Satoshis solution, I immediately knew that this was it! The solution to online money I'd been looking for back then. It dawned on me that it was probably also a good time to introduce a new global decentralized digital money. The reason why bitcoin is taking its time to take off and adopt wider use, is because powerfull forces are working against it and the time is not quite right yet. But it will be right at some point and these powerfull forces will be overwhelmed by an even more powerfull force: the force of us people in unison. We'll see, interesting times indeed. Regarding bitcoin: in my mind, everything is working according to plan. |

1 is gold?
nope, 1 are bitcoins. if you'd want gold, please pick 2, silver. |

1 - cause once redeemed i can recycle the plastic and buy any other two options whenever i want  1 - cause with 1 coin from 1, I can soon buy option 2 and enough of option 3 to wipe my ass with until the end of time. |

3 because I don't want to look like movie character carrying a sack of gold.
How about:
4) A bitcoin debit card
5) Use the NFC chip in an Android phone to do transactions like Google Wallet.
both great ideas. Implementation is hard, however (not technically, that's rather easy) |

heh, why is fiat winning? people are zombies following a hunger for paper money.
Because I can actually pay with it in shops, contraryt o silver and bitcoin? Isn't it what money is for? Yes, but also: store of value. |
|
|
|
I can use fiat to buy milk and eggs. When I can use something else, I will.
I will try to use silver at my local farmer's shop soon and tomorrow I will try to pay a ride in silver. Let's see how that goes  |

How do you use those bitcoins?
Those are "casascius physical bitcoins". You can exchange them physically for goods/services/favors. Also: you can redeem them at mtgox, for example. They have a private key to 1 bitcoin hidden behind the hologram, more info: http://casascius.com |

I tell you why fiat is winning: It's still in the heads. This. The poll asked for intuitively, and intuitively I see the value in a 50 euro bill. (I expect this to be less for americans though) When thinking about it, there's actually only about 15 BTC there, which is about 30 euro. So yeah, BTC is still worth less. The silver thingeys (Canadian?) I have no idea about. Edit: Oh? They're all worth the same? Are you sure about that? Those are Silver Maples I think... Can't really see what weight. I assume 1 oz coins. Each worth about 13 BTC. http://coinabul.com/index.php/silver-sorted-by-weight/canadian-silver-maple-1-oz-silver-coin.htmlI tried to make all options "worth" about the same using todays prices. because I was trying to find out, what people expect to be most sucessfull in terms of actually keeping it's value in the furue. it's 17 BTC, 2 oz silver (maple leaf) and 50 EUR |

3.
1 looks too 'plastic' and 'fake' at first sight (probably due to the hologram).
2 doesn't look familiar at all, so it would be impossible for me to estimate its value.
3 has the additional advantage of looking more 'polished'.
oh god, I should've used a 100 USD bill. it's a fifty EUR bill, man. |

I tell you why fiat is winning: It's still in the heads. It's indoctrination, we're brought up this way. When you constantly put value on everything using FIAT to compare, at some point, you just internalize Value == FIAT. |

3
Intuitively, I don't really know how much the others are worth
The 3 options are currently of equal value. 1 for me, btw. |

Mining has been dying out bigtime lately. I'm pretty sure those miners have sold off their coins and aren't the day trader type that wants to buy them back at a lower price. I'm sure there are other bitcoin owners that have done the same, sold with no intentions of buying back. Are we seeing a fundamental change of ownership in Bitcoins? Is the transfer towards new/old people who are ready to drive the price up instead of down? Are we putting bitcoins in the hands of more capable users?
yes. profit-oriented corporations, sleek entrepreneurs, cutting edge startup companies, smart individuals,... now is the time for them to build up their bitcoin stock they will need for operation. It's the perfect time, everyone and my grandpa sais bitcoin is dead and talk about it in the past tense, selling off their coins or spending them on drugs. Surely money changes hands: the volume we see is not day-trading volume, it's actual money changing hands. So I fully agree with op. Only the few that really understand how the world works, what is currently happening with our monetary systems and how fundamentally new and fitting the ideas in bitcoin are in current times, still believe in bitcoin and have big plans. It will pay off for them bigtime, and they will be called "early adopters" . |

What's the deal with that? For the second time in a week, the price hits a perfectly dead flat plateau. I looked through the history and couldn't find other times where it was similarly consistent for that length of time.
My guess is: since the advent of the "liquidity provision bot" ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=49910.msg594071#msg594071), day trading has become a lot more unattractive, because low volume does not move the market that much any more. Therefor everyhing is slower and, as we can see, at time, no trades happen for quite long periods. |

 EDIT: I made it so the 3 heaps are currently "worth" about the same. EDIT: - 1: 17 BTC
- 2: 2 oz of silver4
- 3: a 50 EUR bill
assume these are currently worth exactly the same in USD. I want to know which one you trust the most intuitively to keep it's value. Will reset poll. |

Is there any chance to get more than the 100 MHash/s out of a x5000? Can the changes to the "software" you made for x6*00 be "backported"?

Ugh, how did I miss this post...*rage*
You just need to ask, how many FPGA-s can be connected (what are power constraints and how many USB-ports remains free). After that it will be possible to raise a new motion to add few more FPGA-s, i think Maybe it makes more sense to issue new shares at market price, or at least a little higher. |

They were issued for .26 and all of them were bought within a day, the orders you now see are not from the IPO.
allright, I see the post now. Sorry, didn't see it before. Thanks for clarifying. |

Just thought I'd drop this in here since we have been thinking about how to market: "Selling Advertising to 200,000 + US college Students": https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=48560.msg577703#msg577703It's probably way out of our financial possibilities, but it'd be a large part of our possible target group, right: "college students behind bittorrent-filters"? I'm not advocating this, I think we're growing just fine as it is, but maybe it's fun to discuss the idea... |
