I think the site lacks a statement concerning share ratio. I didn't use it yet, but there is nothing on the introduction page.

People who want fast torrents do not necessarily want to leech. I suggest that you ascertain that your service holds an average share ratio larger than 1 whenever possible. You can charge extra if people want to actively seed to high ratios, but a paid service should really set a good example.

It would be really unsatisfying to damage the BitTorrent networks even though paying extra for the traffic.

I agree. This has been talked about, but I don't remember the status...

just tuned in

Assange says, for example, it's a breach of the rights of wikileaks donors to freeze accounts.

They also talk about an attack of American Institutions against European sovereignity.

The video should be available to view after the live session ends.

I would like to purchase a dual FPGA board for the company in order to ensure profitability by lowering power consumption per megahash.  In order to purchase this board, the company is listing 1,100 shares at 0.136/share. 

I'm actually opposed to adding an FPGA miner to your mining equipment at this point in time, personally.

Why don't you ask your shareholders first via a motion on glbse and present some math here on the thread?

I doubt it's profitable if prices rise more in the coming months. I agree it's a sort of insurance against falling prices, but too expensive in my mind.

Can you compare adding the FPGA miner to adding another 5970 for different bitcoin price levels (say $2, $3, $5, $10)?

11465  Economy / Securities / Re: [GLBSE] Merged Mining Investment Opportunity on: October 22, 2011, 08:59:48 PM
how is miner coming along? I hope you have some fun building/configuring Wink

The motherboard didn't arrive yesterday as expected.  Since it's being shipped via UPS from newegg and they don't deliver on Saturdays, it looks like this rig won't be coming online any sooner than Monday night.

allright, thanks for letting us know.

I agree, finally the hype-cycle moves on from the "Trough of Disillusionment" to the "Slope of Enlightenment".

Now on to some sustained, yet comparatatively slow growth, is my guess.
11468  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Trust No One on: October 22, 2011, 06:43:44 PM
we need a better way to source check, like a bitcoinlist...

a so-called "independent rating agency"? ^^
11469  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in France: first legal decision directly related to Bitcoin? on: October 22, 2011, 10:36:17 AM

I don't understand... What decision?

Quote
the Bank de France (France's central bank) has confirmed that because of European banking rules, monetary transfers (deposits and withdrawals) through a single entity are subject to financial regulation and therefore can only be performed by licensed financial institutions such as banks or Payment Service companies

I thought a court was going to make some decision, no? Why does the bank de france get to make any decision here?

3.) profit


and how would you profit if you can't add or withdraw any funds?

you didn't do step 2.) right. Use your imagination and think outside the box.

One thing, though: you're sending me my site password in the confirmation email!?! Don't do that!

My fault indeed. DotNetNuke comes with the wrong configuration for passwords by default, and a subsequent fix is not trivial.
I have just requested some help from a core team member working on a tool to deal with that scenario.
I'll apply the fix ASAP. Thanks for letting us know

Another faux-pas (in my mind): You should really use mtgox api keys. It might be applicable for the competition to seize the password, but for normal users wanting their funds managed by the bot, this is not acceptable.

Btw: I'm not taking part in the competition, so leave my password alone, please Wink

No, sorry, but if you do a search for "goxxed" I'm sure it will come up.

In a nutshell, Mt. Gox has a tendency to repeatedly "Gox" it's users through a combination of non-communication, lack of professionalism, and being insanely understaffed.  Some would say deliberately so, but I think it's more to their naivete.

1.) Stop complaining
2.) take action
3.) profit

This thread is relevant to my interests...

I am developing a web-based trading platform for the Bitcoin exchanges, and I'm about to push a nice update to my current data delivery platform.

I would be interested in creating tools right into my platform that enable the execution of complex strategies at the discretion of the trader. I'm not sure I would want to build bots into a web platform (yet).

Just found about this, might be relevant here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=49218.0 "Aricie: Trading Competition (50 btcs bounty)"
https://dnnbitcoin.aricie.com/Default.aspx?tabid=39

These guys offer we web-based bot platform. Definitely interesting. The currently implemented trading strategy looks to me like it would provide liquidity to the market if used by enough people, but I'm in no was an expert on this.
11474  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Realtime Full Order Book, Time & Sales, and Tick Chart on: October 21, 2011, 10:48:45 PM
On October 19, MtGox just launched a new API call that returns the whole book!

https://mtgox.com/api/1/BTCUSD/public/fulldepth

Are you saying I should close the old forum thread or redirect users of /order-book/ to the main page at bitcoin.clarkmoody.com ?

I meant the thread. I've been monitoring that old thread and didn't know about the new one here. Maybe I'm not alone.

Thanks for the info on mtgox api.

Thanks for an awesome product, btw. I've been using it instead of my own trading clients for keepinp up to date on mtgox market ever since my websocket troubles started.
11475  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Aricie: Trading Competition (50 btcs bounty) on: October 21, 2011, 10:35:13 PM
Awesome! If many use this, it should stabilize and liquidify markets!

I'm testing it.

One thing, though: you're sending me my site password in the confirmation email!?! Don't do that!
11476  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Realtime Order Book, Time & Sales, and Tick Chart on: October 21, 2011, 09:13:17 PM
I just discovered this thread, should this one be used instead of the "old one" (realtime orderbook with websockets)? if so, maybe send people here and close the other one?

I've updated the code a bit to fix a few bugs.

Seen that, thanks!

Also, when loading the orders, we now get the entire order book, instead of just the tiny amount MtGox used to send.

Awesome! Just one question: HOW?
11477  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Realtime MtGox Time and Sales with WebSockets on: October 21, 2011, 09:04:44 PM
I see you fixed the issue with "erratic" order book entries when grouping by price. Thanks. Was guessing these where "other currencies"?
11478  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [ANNOUNCE] Abe 0.6: Open Source Block Explorer Knockoff on: October 21, 2011, 02:49:22 PM
Is this code stable?

been using it rather heavily (also for alt-chains), seems rock-solid to me.

Bitcoin POS system developed
A point-of-sale system, based on a VeriFone terminal, which enables retailers to accept virtual currency Bitcoin has been developed.

I think it's the "casascius pos terminal": https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=46366.0

I don't think it's completely "developed".
11480  Economy / Marketplace / Re: [BETA] MTGox websocket API, testers wanted on: October 21, 2011, 01:23:06 PM
I would like to see depth messages for all of the currencies broadcast out over the WebSocket, as I do not think it's happening right now.

Can anyone confirm that there are only USD depth messages coming across the socket?

Looks like it's true. I am filtering for "depth_msg['currency'] == 'USD'", but put a debug log line for the other case. It doesn't trigger.
