And then go the next step. Consider MaidSafe at http://maidsafe.net/.

I don't like their licensing model. If they went the FreeBSD or Linux route would consider looking further.

I'm sure they want to get rich like anyone else. They claim to be open source. Getting rich off something that is open source doesn't work easily.

I expect that there is someone out there who will use their ideas and platform to build competing systems that have a different price structure. They have done the work. Good thinkers and programmers can build off their ideas. There will be competition.

Have you heard of something called Bitcoin? You should totally check that out.

I always keep Fiat in the garage in case the BTC takes a dump.

That said, the mtgox dump to $100 occurred inside a black box.
 Who, in his right mind would prefer to keep fiat instead of BTCinside the gox in the remote chance that someday he would  be able to redeem either one.  This, specially in light of the fact that mtgox was always better at redeeming btc than than fiat.  the moment mtgox closed the only door of escape for depositors the price went from mark to market to mark to fantasy, then from mark to fantasy to mark to unicorns and onwards to Mark to Karpeles: the Leprechaun that stole the btc pot at the end of the unicorn's rainbow fart. the "price" at gox is meaningful only in the sense that it satisfies some frappuccino fantasy of an overweight undertalented autistic nerd.

back to the beginning: have plenty of wallpaper (usd) to exchange for btc at $500; $400; $300; $200; and $100... why? coz as mother goose says: never put all eggies in a single basket.

And: Gollum's charts are perfectly valid from a technical standpoint.

Points should be awarded for this post: you definitely get some points.

I would love to see $100 BTC on stamp, and I have my fiat ready. Its just not gonna happen though...

EDIT: Perhaps a little harsh towards Mark Karpeles though, I don't know him but I hear he's a good guy. Still, pretty f*cking funny.

Nobody with balls to day trade $60k of volatile stock is sitting here reading bullshit on the speculation forum.




What do you imagine them doing?

Trust me, they have nothing better to do  Tongue

Mt Gox gets back to its roots: a platform for trading pieces of paper.

Can someone explain the OP? I know DPR is the guy who ran Silk Road. But why would the OP have coins confiscated from DPR? And why would it be a problem, if those coins are circulating?

OP doesn't have the coins, he's just watching the address. So you can blackmail him all you want, you won't be getting any coins.

Just checked Cryptsy and was pleasantly surprised to find my protoshares had doubled in value against BTC, so I'll share some of my winnings:

OP is one of them. Roll Eyes
Average forum idiot, because the date you've registered proves your experience and intelligence in trading bitcoins in general. You've been on this forum so long, you must be smart

Generally the longer you are involved in a particular scene, the better you get to know it.

Example: smoothie is a well known troll around here, and you won't get anywhere arguing with him because his only objective is to provoke a reaction from you and call out bullshit when he sees it.

(Sorry to ruin your fun smoothie)

Your so smart.

Correct. But I added more of my purpose here on the forums in bold.

Yeah, fair enough, I'll give you that one too.

Don't worry we have a GPS tracker attached to the bottom of his frappacino cup.

If MT. Gox is insolvent, you probably wont get back any coins or any USD.

So it would have been stupid not to buy the coins.

If they are solvent, would you rather get back USD or 1BTC per 200 USD?

1 btc @ about 80 euro I think I paid for them today.

Now just hope that they survive and recover. Given their past performance, I think your odds are pretty good.

136  Economy / Speculation / Re: Smoothie's Prediction of timing of next capitulation event etc on: February 22, 2014, 03:01:55 PM
Smoothie had some good long term calls. Lucky bastard bought loads of LTC for cheap  Angry Grin

If you want cheap LTC, you can buy them for ~$13.75 at the moment. I'd be surprised to see them go for less than $10 (although I wouldn't rule it out completely). I don't wanna hear any complaints around here when we break the ~$50 ATH with people saying 'LTC is too expensive, its not fair!' - you've got plenty of time to stock up now.
137  Economy / Speculation / Re: Smoothie's Prediction of timing of next capitulation event etc on: February 22, 2014, 12:13:22 AM
Smoothie,
I think capitulation is settling in and the rise will be much slower.

Do you want to do a 2 BTC bet on the ATH prediction?

I don't see how we'll hit a new ATH by July 2014, honestly. I think it'll be at least a year out.

We'd just need a mutually-agreed upon exchange or price indicator and an escrow.

I'd be tempted to take that bet.
138  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why are the prices plummeting? Is it due to gox, overstock not accepting btc on: February 21, 2014, 01:26:32 AM
Price has been dropping.  Is it gox, overstock not accepting btc anymore, russia/china banning
All the above, manipulation etc?

thoughts appreciated

n00bs failing to verify news?
