my time is frozen at 3 hours 40 minutes!

this is like trying to kill an ant with an assault rifle....brilliant...

Hi, can someone please tell me what I have to do to be able to post in other sections? it's really annoying that I cant post anything or reply to posts.  

I already have 5+ posts and even did a trade and got positive feedback in the feedback thread. 

Thanks

I really wish people understood what they are getting into with those bitcoin markets including mtgox.  ALL of them are purely basement outfits ran by a few guys that can disappear at any given moment. There is no safety nor legal protection like banks or brokerage accounts.  As such you should never leave large sum of money in those accounts, if you need to make a large trade, transfer the money/btc in, make the trade, then transfer everything out ASAP.  

I never leave more than $100 in those accounts, any btc i get i immediately transfer them out into my wallet.

Leaving $5000 in there is nuts.  I do hope you get some of the money back.

Thanks, if those are the only concern then they seem pretty minor. On cyberpowerpc they only allow you to configure 3x graphic card (5870) which comes out to be around $1300 total, seems very reasonable for a mining rig.

Do you guys think that's a good rig to buy that has a nice balance between mhash/sec and cost?  Should hit 1200 mhash/sec with minor tweaks.

Hi does anyone know if quad 6870 running on 890FXA-GD70 mobo is a good idea? I see most miners go for the dual card option instead of quad.  Why is that?  By having 4x card dont you save more on other hardware cost (no need for another set of mobo/cpu/memory) as well as less electricity?  Is there some hidden inefficiencies in the quad card setup that makes them less ideal?

thank you

It simply isn't reasonable to ask people tot ake the risk that their paper dollar can disappear because of losing their wallet.  oh wait..but it is reasonable...

I am just curious if most of you set transaction fee? and if so what's the amount. The bitcoin client says it recommends 0.01.  I dont mind paying some for transaction fees to support the network but just want to get a feel what is the accepted norm in the community. thanks

i wish this were true, it will make bitcoin MUCH MUCH more popular

You cant fix stupid, that's like saying if alice owe bob $1000 and her bank account contains exactly $1000. She may just email her bank account login/password + debt card to him.  Then continue to deposit money into the bank account. Does that make any sense?

All average joe needs to do is install the bitcoin client on a usb dongle, plug it in when need to use and unplug immediately when done.   It's no safer/riskier than logging into your bank account from your pc.  It's expected the average user has antivirus running and keep their computer reasonably secure, if your computer is completely exposed with tons of virus/trojans, then anything on it gets compromised.

I think bitcoin is just fine the way it is.

yeah please let us know, i signed up and wired some money over directly from my bank, nothing big just to test it out.  Fyi used your code

+1 to kpriess.  Quick and painless, sold me 3 bitcoins.

is tradehill legit? Anyone used it? The web definitely look a lot more cleaner than the other crap, but  I love how they do fund transfer from my bank account to some random person in wilmington de?  couldnt be bothered to even setup a LLC?

Looking for 10 bitcoin, will pay $30 each.  This bitcoin market is really a mess looks like just a bunch of basement outfits running solo.  I have a verified ebay account with 1000+ feedbacks / 99.5% rating and verified paypal, both were established over a decade ago. We can do 1 bitcoin at a time and i send first using gift option via paypal.  Or if you are around NYC we can meet in person, basically bring your laptop to a starbuck i give you cash and you click the button to transfer the bitcoins.  PM me if anyone is selling.

This p2p currency is really a cool idea, but it desperately need a large firm to establish a legit market where buy/sell can take place.

EDIT: Hi guys sorry i cant reply to all the pm but I am no longer looking for bitcoins, got a few from members here and the rest from tradehill.  thanks all
