Surprised to see that Stunna hasn't changed rates for the lower forum ranks to compete with ritz. Bit dissapointed as well, truth to be said.
Same here, it's why I switched to Ritz. I'll probably stick with Ritz, as there's no reason to switch back to PD3 for the foreseeable future as long as Ritz continues to payout. Maybe Stunna will up the rates for the new term on the 17th or after Ritz pays out again on the 1st. There are other benefits to staying with PD though. Yeah, like that you know you're gonna get paid. Then again 2 payments have been done by Ritz, and I still seem to miss the point of scamming with an advertising campaign. It's supposed to get your reputation up, and your site's name established. Scamming won't earn the owner any btc, just ruin the name of the site. Others have done it, and then there's always a long-con (not that I'm saying it is one). You never know what's going on behind the scenes either. They might lose their funds or investors etc and deicide to just shut up shop. Hopefully Ritz is in it for the long run like he said though.

saying "you been scammed" is not very descriptive. but saying "you been goxxed" is excellent. because just those 3 words gives people knowledge that 1) a person was scammed out of funds 2) the scam happened in december 2013 3) the scam involved the exchange MT.Gox 4) the perpetrator was mark karpales 5) the perp' got away with atleast 740k btc and soo on. so i love the term as 3 words can open up so much information, where words such as: "fractionalized" or even "banked" do not even do the event justice Getting 'goxed' should become the de facto word describing getting scammed by crypto-currency businesses. It will go down in history and as a reminder how amateurish bitcoin was in the early days. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) no, it should be used for the singular event such as getting zhou tong'd is a known term for the bitcoinica event. (sorry noobs, thats before your time) such as "i was at 9-11" is a known term for being at or very near the towers at that disaster. to try watering down the pure disastrous and epic meaning of a term by linking it to any bad experience simply dilutes its meaning entirely, and it no longer becomes epic. so please keep terms for singular events, otherwise they become meaningless. goxxed should remain solely for a event involving MT.Gox, pure and simple Part of me agrees with this, but part of me feels it'd be shame to limit a word that has such a unique kick to one event. I think because of the newness of the event, the words does dilute its impact at the moment; but given enough time, that diluting will occur likewise. Personally, I see it doing the opposite, those in the know, will still understand the impact of that word, but it'll also add a tinge of richness to the already jumbled up English vocabulary. I'm not trying to appeal to ignorance (argument-wise), but there are lots of words that have etymologies that are vastly different from their present-day connotations. It's like only calling Ponzis a Ponzi if they were carried out by Charles Ponzi.

One guy on a different forum he was saying that it has cancer and need money for surgery,i almost gave him 1 bitcoin,but i stayed,let me Google about him to see if hes a lair or not...and guess what?he was a lair and scammed a lot of people.So i can say Google save my bitcoin.I never tried to scam people!
People claiming to have cancer or be ill are always red flags. If you had cancer would you be on forums begging for a little bit of cash?

Many people think Bitcoin went bankrupt. The media did huge damage exacerbating Gox's destruction. Yes... they media is trying quite hard to keep people away from Bitcoin. Let's see for how long they'll succeed. The prices will bounce back when Mark K ends up in jail and the coins are recovered from him. I'm not so sure about that. I think we'll need a few big merchant adaptation and some decent media exposure before we bounce back. I've been to Albuquerque - not the brightest people there. Mostly a bunch of meth-heads.
I have lived in Albuquerque for 13 years. I have yet to meet a "meth-head". The people of Albuquerque are just like the people I have encountered elsewhere. Some good, some bad. It's not uncommon for cryptoanarchist to make such ignorant comments. He's probably just watched Breaking Bad.

Cash it out, place it in a bank and get interest. Or just keep it and hope for the bitcoin price to rise!
Haha. Have you seen the interest rates at banks? The only way this money will grow is hodling in Bitcoin. I know, but to quote "coinnewbit": yeah , even if its just a tiny amount.
And that will only give a tiny amount! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Haha. I'm not sure if you'd actually even get any interest on 0.05 of cash either. I don't think there's a minimum amount on interest? IF you put a £ or $ in the bank are you going to get interest on that? Well, that is not much but perhaps invest it in a dice site if you don't mind the risk.
Yeah, thats probably the quickest way to double it. Or quickest way to lose it.

But when the next solar storm hits Earth and wipes out all Electronics and therewith bitcoins, I'm gonna be one of the few who's bitcoins survived.
How safe does that make you feel, if you saved it on an Electric unit?
Since when do solar storms wipe out all the electrics on earth forever?

Passive income off of 0.05?
yeah , even if its just a tiny amount. Hold it. Or try your luck and gamble it a little, but you'll probably just lose it that way.

Robocoin does look ridiculously complicated. I would never use one. Bitcoin doesn't need crappy ATMs such as this unwieldy junk. Better luck to them on making Robocoin 2. It does seem like quite a faff. Wouldn't be too keen on giving all that info away. Best and probably easier to buy from other places until there are quicker ATMs available.

That's not how this works. Plus Mt Gox might not even exist anymore.
