Seems like Andreas just gave him a Blockchain.info wallet as the funds are still in the original donation wallet.

It looks more like the Picodore 64

Bitcoin users and people interested in Bitcoin may be overrepresented in the stats that Alexa produces.

I agree, but someone made the argument that if the real satoshi comes forward, especially if he/she/they are spectacular in some way, the news would go nuts about it and tons of people would hear about Bitcoin. Imagine the media frenzy it would cause.

I would assume people have a bigger incentive to buy if the price is relatively low. I would definitely buy a few thousand BTC at $0.01.

Most merchant woftware creates a new address at the checkout and waits until the total confirmed amount received at this address is at least as big as the cost of the order. Sending 0.0999 would just make the merchant wait until you send another 0.01.

But please note! you said 0.999 (rather than 0.0999), which is way more than the order amount you typed as 0.1!

You don't want to do this mistake. I did it one time (I sent a hundred times a very small order amount) but the merchant sent the excess amount back without causing any problems.

There used to be a site called "britcoin" and the name was brilliant. They disappeared though.

Yes, these language analysis people don't have proof. Szabo is/was the main expert on cryptocurrencies and he published a lot about it online. The Bitcoin paper is EXPECTED to use the same words/termiology as Szabo and Bitgold. It's also perfectly possible that the Bitcoin paper avoids mentioning Bitgold just because it's heavily influenced by it. I've seen people do this all the time at the Universities.

The language analyses point out things like using timestamped as a verb and phrases like "trusted third parties", "for our purposes" and commas after and and but.

According to this I am likely Satoshi Nakamoto in the same way the narrator is Tyler Durden in Fight Club. This way of writing appears to be just normal to me.

If I had to bet my money on who is Satoshi Nakamot, I would still put it on Szabo, though.

Ron Paul also says that Bitcoin should be perfectly legal on not taxed. This should be the headline instead.

If he wins the Nobel prize in economics, he would be in the same club as Paul Krugman.

If you expand to the grand Nobel prize club of all different categories, you get an even worse list:
Yasser Arafat
Barack Obama
Al Gore
European Union

Obviously the Nobel prize has lost all its credibility.

But Milton Friedman won the economics prize in 1976 so giving it to Satoshi could be move to save the destroyed brand of the Nobel prizes.

This account is supposedly completely disabled by bitcointalk admins in order to not give hackers something to brute force. May be why his last post "I am not Dorian Nakamoto" was made on the peertopeer foundation site.

Why would anyone want to put their full name in the Google Docs database?

I don't mind facts. Sure, Apple has a reason for removing Bitcoin apps and it can be explained. So what?

The fact is that it's best to stay away from Apple, no matter how their behaviour is explained, it's still a fact.

Big miners could actually get an edge by betting on a pool and then switching to mine on it. They would have to have a couple of % of the total hashing power though

The "almighty $" has lost 95.6% of it's purchasing power since the Federal Reserve came into existence. There are claims that it's still doing well compared to other currencies. Sure, in the land of the blind, the one-eyed is king, but Bitcoin is completely above governments struggling to stay afloat by inflation taxation. That's the whole point with Bitcoin

There's only two things that can change the confirmation time:
1. The current fork uses a slightly modified code that has smaller target that gives faster confirmations.
2. The hash rate increased rapidly and it will take a little time for the difficulty to adjust to set the average block to 10 minutes.

In this case it's for sure (2) that is the answer.

OP's subject should have been: "I'm Out - and hoping to buy back at a lower price."

OR he wouldn't bother to post it here.

This quote shows also that he's probably not that young since he knows about the time sharing computers in the nineties. And indeed a great quote. Clearly showing the trust deficiency in the current money system.

Wow
many head found
much tax
very ban
so conspiracy

Apple/iPhone were always over-priced. But they managed somehow to market it as "hip and exclusive" even though it was always mainstream(wtf).
