Using them to buy more BTC |
|
|
|
Has anyone done any detailed protocol work on how bitcoin micropayments might be used to incentivise email acceptance (ie as an antispam measure), or otherwise add security features to existing internet protocols?
Why would poor people (not able to pay a fee) be more spammy than rich people (who can afford to pay to send spam, as spamming companies do with snail mail)? |

Any idea of what could be your level of pirateat40 and GLBSE exposure?

Hurry up and get your first bitcoin now before early 2013. Prices will skyrocket by then!
Do you think many people are reading this and not already owning their first bitcoin? |

Bump we hit 12 again pirateat40? Totally, he's using all those coins to buy bitcoins............. nope, to sell at peak and by them back at a cheaper price. OMG, that's so clever, we should all do that  |

I just checked the Google Play link and it appears to be live now.
Indeed, it is. |

Mtgox seem's like the easiest way to get bitcoins with usd, But it requires, Dwolla. and then 30days after first withdraw, and to get verified by submitting a copy of government issued photographic identification documentation and proof of residence.......
Can someone post maybe less hoop jumping alternatives, now I am starting to understand why lots of people don't use bitcoins :/
Have you looked at LocalBitcoins? |

Another thing could be to make an expiration date on those offers, such as: those bitcoins must be used before [put an ISO date here] or they will be reclaimed and redistributed.
To do that, you can either keep a copy of the private key (which is somewhat dangerous if your machine gets hacked) and get the coins back at the given date if they are still at the given address, or (better) generate the transaction to send it to one of your offline wallets without broadcasting it, then broadcast it when the expiration date arrives (it will fail if the coins have been spent).
This way, you don't have to be afraid that someone could toss the paper away (or not activate the address on the board) and the coins are lost forever.

Really sorry about this, but it is the way things must go to keep the fund from getting even worse performance due to low amounts of liquid btc.
That's the correct action to protect your investors. If someone wishes to withdraw funds, they must either (1) wait on liquid BTC to come available, or (2) bear the the losses incurred by liquidating assets to cover their withdrawal. To do anything else would be unfair to your loyal investors. You aren't running a bank; you haven't offered demand-deposit accounts. This is an investment fund. As someone who hasn't requested a withdraw (even though I have had negative returns since I invested so far), I tend to agree with that. However, the second post of this thread is misleading, as you write (and haven't modified it) that withdrawals are processed at the end of each week. Maybe you should make things clearer there too, even if I understand that people can get frustrated or angry when the rules are altered by the fund manager without prior warning. |

The site is running slowly for me these past few days, has it been like this for a while?
Yes. The most painful part is when your 2-factor token expires before the site handles your withdrawal request (expiration time is 30 seconds). Unlike Google, GLBSE doesn't use a grace period, during which expired credentials (I think Google uses 30 more seconds) can be accepted. |

What other information would be useful? A list of mobile and online wallets? Exchanges?
I think you should link to a post explaining how to get more bitcoins, but you should not promote the use of exchanges to transform bitcoins into fiat, as it would defeat the purpose. |

Paying off a BTC loan I took out ~2 weeks ago and my mining rig didn't cover all of it.
Where are your credentials? |

Well, who would trust a site whose name and logo are an obvious ripoff of a known site? Thanks for the heads up anyway. |
|

Excellent news! Thanks for taking care of it, Electrum is really promising.

In two days, Onichan should get the principal back. I'm curious to see how it goes.
Has he even paid this week's interest? Good question. Dank, you should list the repayment and interests addresses on the OP, so that anyone can see how the bank is honoring its part of the deal. |

Currently bitcoins can be split down to 8 decimals. This unit is unofficially know as a satoshi, thus 1 satoshi = 0.00000001 bitcoin. If nescesarry, in the future the code can be changed to include more decimals.
Note that bitcoin is no more official than satoshi, and could be defined as 10^8 satoshis. |
