Yeah would be nice to have a peer-2-peer exchange built into the Bitcoin client.

Technical Details
     www.instawallet.org uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is only valid for the following names:
  *.bitcoin-central.net , bitcoin-central.net 

(Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)

A so called "Bitcoin" service provider was hacked (https://www.instawallet.org/) (https://bitcoin-central.net/)

Then there was sell panic, because newbies think Bitcoin got hacked.

MtGox creaked under the load of newbie sell orders.

I suspect.

Happens all the time.  Wink

Although... I'd have expected a competent judge to contact me and ask my opinion on whether the device is capable of the 27 Gh/s required, in case my current results were the result of software issues. But it's immaterial, since as best as I can tell so far, I'm getting the most performance out of it that it can handle.

75% of 40 GH/s is 30 GH/s. The device didn't come close to the required speed for the bet. The bet was clearly won.

It was a 30GH unit (Little SC),not the 40 or 60GH unit..............................

LittleSC was not mentioned in the bet or announced when the bet was created.

3 products were mentioned in the yahoo artical libked from the bet.

LOL it's 100% of a 25GH/s Mini Rig (FPGA)  Wink

Put Linux on another partition and only use it for the Bitcoin client.
*writing windows virus that reads ext filesystems*

the partition could be on a USB memory stick so you could remove it and lock it in a fire proof safe Tongue

even if you got the wallet.dat file you need to decrypt it.

people get hacked by downloading another program (like mining software) that key logs their password.

As someone pointed out, how about a peer-2-peer exchange, https://ripple.com

I'm not sure how that works, I just want a client on my desktop, not an online client subject to me having access to their web page during a DDOS attack.

Looks like someone needs to invent the peer-2-peer exchange for the peer-2-peer currency.  Wink
1291  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: BFL progress.. Should I sell my Avalon's. Any feedback would be appreciated! on: April 03, 2013, 07:10:48 PM
If BFL started shipping 31st April, like they claim,

and they can produce 400 a day, like they claim,

then there should be 1200 happy BFL owners today?  Huh

I really hope you ment March 31st as April 31st is not a day that exists and is still 28 days away. The cleverly disguise April 31st as May 1st....

Yup, put 1st April, then edit fail on 31st March.  Roll Eyes

I would love it if BFL had a working ASIC to send us but I suspect 25GH/s (link below) may just be their old FPGA Mini Rig mining.

(Argh! someone beat me to it)

Is nobody even suspicious about the 25MH/s mining number?

THAT'S WHAT A FPGA MINI RIG PRODUCES!

Could the photo be fake, and what's mining for Luke Jr is really a FPGA Mini Ring?  Wink

1294  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Poll:Did Bets of Bitcoin correctly decide "BFL will not ship ASIC before April"? on: April 03, 2013, 12:36:51 PM
The Title and poll are at odds. (True/False) is an unclear choice.

Did Bets of Bitcoin correctly decide = FALSE

"BFL will not ship ASIC before April"? = TRUE


and the OP can switch these around to set the final result the way he wants by editing the post.

"True" means that BFL failed to ship before April.

"False" means that BFL shipped before April.

USA takes a dim view of online gambling sites that do not pay out to US Citizens..

http://money.cnn.com/2012/07/02/news/companies/poker-ponzi/index.htm

A bitcoin is no different to a poker chip and you have people/family involved in this bet with previous criminal record for international lottery scam. Surely gonna interest the FBI, you'd be better paying out, than stirring up a hornets nest. Wink
1296  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: First BFL ASIC! on: April 03, 2013, 12:13:52 AM
Not only did the ASIC not leave the BFL lab, so was never shipped anywhere

but also this..

This customer cannot be a BFL employee.

Luke Jr was flown in on BLFs dollar to code their software so is an employee!

https://forums.butterflylabs.com/blogs/luke-jr/97-preparing-my-trip-bfl.html

How many other "customers" where flown in at BFL's expense?
1297  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Circulated or Hoarded? on: April 02, 2013, 06:09:54 PM
Hoarded.  

Who in their right mind spends money that will buy more tomorrow than it does today.

With the exception of spending it on a money printing machine.

Poor velocity always kills hard money systems in the end. Wink
1298  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: First BFL ASIC! on: April 02, 2013, 05:45:33 PM
The BFL ASIC never left the BFL Lab therefor it was never "shipped".   Wink

Avalons where photographed being unpacked from their shipping containers.

when can we expect the 8 series to be out?

They delayed it until the end of 2013 / early 2014,

EU wasn't very happy about power consumption,

They won orders to produce 7850s for the PS4,

and I guess they have plenty 7xxx left to shift.

Do GPUs burn very often when they are mining?

Only if you go crazy with the overclock.
