No Wallet has ever been cracked, an online wallet is NOT the same thing. it falls back on your loging in with a username and pass, Java, html, css, php etc. all have flaws. the right law and boom you own more than one wallet.

The wallet itself can not be cracked Wink

1423  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Black Arrow announces 28nm 100Ghash Bitcoin ASIC from $1.49/Ghash on: December 11, 2013, 02:23:36 AM
To clarify a few things regarding 22nm and 28nm as well as ID for orders.

1.) They stated that if you do a wire transfer from an account that does not have your name on it they they may require Identification. This can help to eliminate quite a few potential problems such as: Fraud, Ensuring Payments are Applied Properly, etc... Even in the US we stores ask for ID when you write a check. I am not worried that they ask the same for a Wire Transfer.

2.) Re: 22nm and 28nm. They floated the question about 22 nm but also stated that they would focus on current design and worry about 22nm for the future. Seems reasonable that they would want to consider all options.

Observation: If you read through this entire thread you will see that it started out nice and neat with on topic questions and answers but as it progresses you can see how even the simplest replies from Black Arrow and other lead to all kinds of unwarranted speculations, off topic posts, and other posts that only create more work for everyone. Many of the questions asked have already been answered in the 30+ pages of posts but people ask again anyway. It would indeed be nice keep things simple and too the point.




Thank you for the clear and concise points- could not have said it better myself.

This thread is actually very much to the point. Take a look on the knc thread... and say after it that this is obscured...
but however discussion is always a good thing.

I don't see it at this stage a positive thing when a company asks what they should do from their customers.
That should be done at the very beginning of the design process. Throwing dice when the design should be ready
makes customers nervous and at least Im wondering what's the focus. There should not have been any kind of vote or question,
only the focus to get the 28mm design done in time. Hopefully it's now the situation.

I was aware about conditions when ID is required with wires and it still is weird. I send wires to the US, China and various EU countires
quite often and ever - no one - have asked ID in such situation when wire comes from the different account name than on the
order. That happens everywhere and everyday. Holding company pays orders instead of company who orginally made the
order. Company you work for might pay the order for some reason. My company might pay the order for another reason etc and
nothing illegal. Sure, BA can ask IDs, but as long as this is the situation, im out of their books. If my money is not easily welcome, then it goes elsewhere.

Another small, but strange thing is that BA doesn't accept group buys even if only one is handling whole thing as it usually goes.
This doesn't apply to me, however just strange policy. Usually companies are willing to sell as much as they can.

However - Now, I don't post anymore about this subject, it just bothered me a lot as I was about to place X-3 orders some time ago, but was forced to
chance plans as I found that strange clause about required ID docs and explanations.

This isn't really odd actually. a group buy save's you nothing. They have a reseller lined up. And it avoids 200 scams of group buys that never go through. You have three authorized places to buy. That's plenty.

Seeing as they are super busy I'm hoping this is a good sign. And everyone on here constantly jumping at their date because BFL and others have failed us is rude and rather sad. Give them the benefit of the doubt. NO ONE can prove they will or will not be on time. Read about them and either invest or don't but a bunch of guys speculating that MAYYYYYBe they will be on time. a bunch saying no. with no real proof to back it aside from past experience with other companies...

Shutup and let them work

I'm curious about this profession; what does day trading provide to society?
Nothing, Day traders exist for their own greed, nothing more.
They waste oxygen.

Anyone who bought a bunch at $1200 and than sold it off at $700 in a panic is NOT a day trader, they would be a clueless noob..
So, The vast majority of the human population?

Based off my experiences with people in general, The vast majority are self-centered, poorly educated, and serve only their own interests.

Yes, and the Vast majority of the human population wouldnt be Day Traders lol.
Day trading take's commitment to do it. I'd bet some of those guys make a damn good living off of it.

Imagine buying a bunch today at ever 800 open, and than selling them all off now at $1000. If you had done this with a coin. you'd make $200.
Some of these guys do that with 100 coins. That's 20 grand profit in a day.
That's a day trader Smiley

Well these arn't exactly highschool friends. we are not overly concerned about hooker's, crack or disappearing. lol.

And WE don't plan on sharing a million dollar wallet, We plan to invest, collect, once our initial investment is in the wallet we cash that out. than decide how the rest is split/how often. the initial wallet would be for a month or two until the investment is returned.

I'm pretty sure they are fine with just me covering the wallet in reality, But I'd feel better and find it more fair to share it's key.

The 2 of 3 method is what I'll use. I'm in the process of finding an old server pc to setup as an offline wallet generator etc.

Thanks

A Day trader wouldn't of sold it all off... if they sold at $1200 they bought it all back at 700... that's what day trading is, multiple trade's back and fourth in a day to make money off the coins...

Anyone who bought a bunch at $1200 and than sold it off at $700 in a panic is NOT a day trader, they would be a clueless noob..

Love the alliance, have been looking into it.

Was thinking of building a package for businesses to hand out.
Something with a basic intro to bitcoin, how it work's, how hard it is to accept payments etc. and some Sticker's for stores (Bitcoin accepted here).

Wish I could help but my webdesign is limited to HTML and some php Sad
1431  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Bitcoins in space! on: December 11, 2013, 12:44:12 AM
This really is epic, What would it cost if Mining groups, etc. Or even a home user, wanted a two way device to send and receive from the sat?
If you were able to give many user's the ability to send data, we would never be worried about it going down.

I'm centered in Canada with 5 acres of land, and clear skyline, would love to have a transmission station here, along with a generator, and it could survive the zombie's Wink. Make a way for my phone's wallet to communicate and it's even better.

But would the Sat be limited on how many input's it could take? Come to think of it, I doubt all the user's could upload, they would overload it?


Excited, Wish I had more money to submit. But I'm here for moral support!

do you realize you can buy smaller amounts here :


and that they have an on going pro to type here


https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=328996.0    hashing made money has bugs


https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=335145.0    you can buy at 130 a share 50 shares

  comes to 6500 a miner  a small premium .  


 read carefully both threads.  I have 2 shares of this. r17

  read the r9 -r12 yeah it is long but it is your money.  I have 11 shares of it.

If this is a real company and if the r17 buy is good all older gear sucks.

since  i made money on the r9 to r12 .  I grabbed some r17.  I am on the fence as to purchasing 10 more shares for 400gh

Three of us are buying 50 shares, no fence, go big or GTFO Smiley

Always risk but if you waited to buy one of the X-3 units after they launched, you'd pay 4X an dnever recover unless coins go threw the roof.

Right now an x-3 will make you a few grand if it stays at 900 a coin. Late delivery will kill you.
1433  Economy / Services / Looking For Web designer who does E-Commerce (Paypal/btc checkout) on: December 10, 2013, 11:45:33 PM
Looking to launch or relaunch an online store, I would like to be able to do online sale's. No shipping as it will be pickup only, at our location or at an event we are attending.

www.quickbt.com is coming up with an option to allow members to use Interact/debit and it sends me BTC, I'd love to see this included in the store, as well as basic paypal checkout.

We are talking maybe 30-40 products 4 or 5 catagories. Basic site info with a home page I can edit info and events onto.

www.eddiecreek.ca is the current site.

I'd also like super slick support for Phone use. so at an event someone could easily buy something on there phone.

Let me know what you charge, and what cart you suggest, I'd be up for a one off site, don't so much need user registration if it's easier. Just need it to email them and me a copy of said invoice once paid.

I have hosting and domain already.

Thank You

Shawn

I got the address for the coins the next day.

As much as I like their product, I do wish they had brought on a guy dedicated to online.

Dont forget time differences Smiley

You need to learn how HTC works.

The bfl stock selling now. Will be completely useless when ba launches. As we go along you need more and more power to get the same coins.

Think of TH as the new GH. The next generation after the x-3 will likely be 10s or 100s of TH and likely the same price point.

Bfl was cheap on pre order. Wait and see what the x-3 sells for in Feb Smiley
1436  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 3 Man Offline Wallet Security on: December 10, 2013, 02:16:40 PM
Thank you. That's exactly what we will do. I'll go buy a few new usb sticks. Hit them with trucrypt. As well as paper copies.

Thank you
1437  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 3 Man Offline Wallet Security on: December 10, 2013, 03:04:43 AM
We are mining a rig, and simply dumping said funds into the same wallet, likely over months. So we can later reinvest into a new mining rig, and withdraw initial investment.

Single wallet way easier. All three of us are military and work at the same location. So short of BTC hitting millions I'm not worried about one of us running off lol.

The 2 of 3 option does seem best! thank you for that. Icase something happens to one of us.

All three of us are invester's and would keep multiple copies of our key etc.
Not overly worried about that.

The M of N is perfect.

Edit:
Seems a bit different I'll need to spend time looking into how that is done exactly..
1438  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / 3 Man Offline Wallet Security on: December 10, 2013, 01:53:31 AM
Two friends and I are looking to invest on some BTC. We would like to have our returns go to an offline wallet we have with us.

But I'm wonderin, does anyone offer a way to take the wallet Key and split it into 3, requiring all three to ever open it again.

Would have for BTC to hit a million and one of us to move away quickly Wink

I guess we COULD simply break the string into 3, and each have 1/3 secured away. I've also seen an option that allows us to split it into 3, but only require two pieces to open the wallet, this may be the better option but sadly I can not find where this is done either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated guys! Thanks
1439  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Idea for mainstream adoption -- Preloaded Bitcoin Wallets on: December 09, 2013, 05:53:38 AM
I give paper wallets as gifts.

www.bitcoinpaperwallets.com
For family I print a second copy to stick in a safety box, so in 5 years when my sister has long lost her's I can reclaim the money lol.

Print a Bunch of those blank. secure them.

Sell bTC for cash and use your phone app to add said amount to the paper wallets. But it's still a trust issue Sad
1440  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Black arrow prospero x-1??? on: December 09, 2013, 05:38:49 AM
Also, minimum order is 10, and no group buys.

yeah, not so customer freindly. way to keep bitcoin decentralized guys Undecided

It's really kind of stupid, cause 10 x-1s = 1 x-3. 

REEEEEEEALLY?

How A Boot you go redo that math and edit your post Wink
