just get a friend in china to verify the package is there. or for that amount of money just FLY to china

and missed..

so how does one go about getting shares nowadays or getting in? too many pages to read so any help would be great

hello.
so avalon is cool and all but producing in low quantities. sold out.
bfl. no comment

are there currently any real ALTERNATIVES to those being developed? i haven't heard any but may be interested in some other options!

this week going forward..

charities have no interest in learning about something unless they know for sure they will get donations! $10/month wouldn't be worth their time.

this is the reason why i think there should be a "pot" for the first University (those places should have smart people in them) - top 150 to lay claim to it.
there will be articles, press, happy university officials! trust me this is better than setting up an address for each place.

if you think people won't trust me. i nominate the forum admin to manage this fund. this will 100% help the bitcoin aura

Vladimir is correct. so is ManBearPig. day trading when it was just going up is fine. picking tops and bottoms unless you have enough capital to move things will probably wind up being worse than just being long

ok. noone cared about it. all eyes were on the crash.
i'll go ahead and work on a donation fund idea. will create some requirements for who and how it will be claimed. this should do good for the community. will not collect any storage fees and hopefully someone will claim it soon enough

i'm glad i was right. "correction" happening. hopefully it will go slower

i just tried signing up. error page.

500 then next big crash, by summer we will be at $1000, crash
next year we will be about $5000
make sure to use the crashes to your advantage.

keep on crashing as long as the price keeps going up
i think what everyone learned is as the price falls keep buying. foolish people selling

it seems many people have joined in the last month.
with the majority of them being anti-bitcoin.
spreading FUD. i don't even understand if they want bitcoins to go to 0 for personal reasons why they even bother coming online to talk about it.
it's like being a memeber of a bmw club and talking shit about bmws

banks can't legally do it. at least not here in the US.
DDOS attacks are illegal regardless of who does it (perhaps besides the actual government who can do anything)
so average joe can't DDOS nor can any bank with ties to the US.
if there is proof that it came from a bank under US jurisdiction those people can go to jail for this

the law shouldn't be selective as to who gets punished for these kind of crimes

mtgox is still highly illiquid market.
if you looked at the volume graphs before the crash it was basically nothing
since the crash there has been more coins traded than the whole month leading up to the crash.
there has been more traded on the 16th than i think a week leading up to the crash
market was not ready. too much slippage too much guessing. too much trying to take advantage of opportunities.
ddos/lags didn't help either
yes- you are correct there is a lot of wrong things with the market at the moment. mtgox is trying to be completely hands off and perhaps if they were more like a professional company they could try to keep things stable one way or another

isn't silicone valley bank open to working with bitcoins?

i still don't know why a previous crash is being used to predict this crash.
no, history does not repeat itself. the fundamentals have changed a lot in the last 2 years.

digitized national currency? paypal? facebook credits? i dont think he even understands what he is saying

not counting the day traders causing a lot of volatility is it possible that the crash may actually be settling
obviously, noone has any actual idea.
some people who have a lot of coins might try to manipulate
but it's been 3 days since the "disaster"
wouldn't everyone who wanted to cash out have cashed out by now?
i would assume that people feel confident at a certain level
it's been 3+ days. good or bad assumption
