1501  Economy / Computer hardware / [WTB] Lancelot on: February 05, 2013, 08:58:54 AM
Want to buy one working Lancelot, original documentation & accessories.  Public bid style. 


To assure consideration, submit your [edit] combined entry fee and [/edit] bid by 2013-02-09 06:00:00 according to the transaction time-stamp,
e.g., https://blockchain.info/address/1PRLQuMjk7rR2zW1X3X8kCWHofmkStGzT4 shows 2013-02-05 03:38:34

I may or may not extend the deadline at my discretion.

I will buy from the lowest bid submitted by the (extended) deadline.  The Lancelot is to arrive in Morris, MN 56267 by Feb. 19.  You pay shipping & handling & all expenses to make it so.

If the lowest bid exceeds funds now at 1PRLQuMjk7rR2zW1X3X8kCWHofmkStGzT4, I may declare a failed auction or deposit more funds at my discretion.  I will not return any bids.

I will identify the winning bid by paying approximately 0.05 BTC to the winning address.

Late penalty of 20% per day.  Payment released 24 hours after delivery.
 
To place bid, pay 0.01 X your price to 1PRLQuMjk7rR2zW1X3X8kCWHofmkStGzT4
For example, to bid 15 BTC, pay 0.15 BTC ($3.00 or so)

Post the tracking URL as evidence of shipping and arrival in Morris.  Payment released after receipt of Lancelot.  I will send payment from 1PRLQuMjk7rR2zW1X3X8kCWHofmkStGzT4 to the address that submits the successful bid.

The winning bidder has 2 business days to post the tracking information, otherwise I reserve the right to offer the sale to the next highest bidder.

Escrow is possible, suggest details.



1502  Economy / Auctions / Re: 696 ASICMINER shares for auction on: February 05, 2013, 05:10:52 AM
...
This is 696/400 000 shares of ASICMINER or 0.174% (200 000 sold for funding, 200 000 kept by company)

Info about these shares:
- 10 to 12 TH total planned in early february to mine for shareholders
- 6x increase planned in a second batch
- Further expansion possible
- Share of profit from sale of units
- Ownership of an ASIC manufacter, long-term potential

...

See the full thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=99497


I must have missed something here.  My analysis is:

The Avalon-2 is about (60 GH/s) / $1,500 --> 40 MH/s/$
This offer is (10TH/s) / (200,000 shareholder_shares) --> 50 MH/s/shareholder_share

On the basis of MH/s being equal, and neglecting things that make it not really so:
40 / $ = 50 / shareholder_share --> 50/40 $/shareholder_share

50/40 $/shareholder_share * 1 BTC / $20 --> 0.0625 BTC / shareholder_share

People are bidding 4.3 times this amount.  Why?
1503  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Would like to purchase 1 BTC on: February 05, 2013, 12:44:17 AM
Hello everyone,

I would like to purchase 1 bitcoin off a reputable member of the community through Paypal at the current Mtgox rate. If one of you could do this it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

That is against the PayPal rules. 

You might go to http://blockchain.info and import or set up an account.
Open your wallet.
Cash deposit
(now you are on the BitInstant page)
Fill out the form, print it out.
Take the resulting MoneyGram 1 page invoice to one of the locations they show.  This will be a place where people pay their utility bills, such as a large grocery store's customer service desk.

1505  Economy / Lending / Re: Seek Loan for Avalon ASIC batch 2 on: February 03, 2013, 04:26:05 PM
I'd sell you some bitcoins for Western Union @ 3%+MTGox Last. You can send Western Union Online. It would be incremental but I would be able to sell you the full $2000 by next weeks time.

Thanks.

I did miss yesterday's purchase date, and I can just push my own USD through standard channels by next month's order deadline.  However, this seems like a good thread to detail out, as other people will have the same issue next month.  

I did learn about the lending site, btcjammer (spelling?), yesterday and it looks like there is activity there about this very same problem.  I did not sign up because of the prohibition of talking with *anyone* else who is signed up with them.  I don't want to have to run that background check before every forum posting.

i'm looking for a personal 4 BTC loan and i'll repay 4.2 BTC after 14 days.
i've done some trades here and have a spotless history Smiley

I calculate as follows:

((4.2/4.0) ^ (1/14) ^ 365 = 3.56809, or 256.8 % annual interest.



1508  Economy / Lending / Re: Consortium to buy Avalon ASIC on: February 03, 2013, 12:15:35 AM
Do you want your own an Avalon but are a little short?  I have a deal for that.

1.  It is -2°F outside right now.  Waste heat is valuable.  It will be cool until May or so.
2.  There is a pay address for a consortium:  17Pq8oPtk8rikxZhF1wENFqR9YtDyLyr8E
3.  Send BTC to that address.  I'll buy integer units while I can, first signed, first ordered.  Be generous with miner fees, if you are so inclined.
4.  After integer number of Avalons have been purchased, there may be funds left over.  I will choose whether to add my own funds for an additional Avalon purchase, or to return them to you within 48 hours, no interest.
5.  For each Avalon ASIC purchased, I own 10%, the other 90% is pro-rated among the accounts that paid in.
6.  I will deduct electricity cost off the top, using the agreed figure for consumption and the cost from my electric bill, highest tier paid first.
7.  I will split the net Bitcoins.  This will be approximately each month, the exact date is not specified.  If it is important, we can specify it in forthcoming discussion.




So I buy an ADIC and we split bitcoins. Genious.

Sounds like you got the gist of it.
Though Round 2 is sold out.

Make a Tweet confirming that you're indeed the person you claim to be.

Good Idea.  See Tweet hashtag #ProfMac
Also, search for ProfMac in http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1378252804/681865516?token=bfb40102

On the 1% number.  1.01 ^ 100 --> 2.7048 or about 170% annualized.
But, as they say...what is the market on something like this?
1510  Economy / Lending / Re: Seek Loan for Avalon ASIC batch 2 on: February 02, 2013, 08:58:25 PM
You want to borrow $1,750 and pay back $17.50? 

Sign me up!

I like that deal!

Repaying $1,750 + $17.50, or 1% for a few days.

1512  Economy / Lending / Seek Loan for Avalon ASIC batch 2 on: February 02, 2013, 08:36:25 PM
I have USD in my bank.  I don't want to use PayPal to buy Bitcoin, because it is against the rules. 

I want in on the batch 2 Avalon ASIC.  It is not feasible to wire transfer money today.  I think I have to go through Aurum, and I only now opened an account.  It will require a document review and delay.  It won't work.

I was expressing sadness and my wife said "Honey, just use western union."  Well, she really used other words.  I love a smart red-head.

Western Union is a two hour round trip drive away, I am in a small town in the boonies, 56267, and it is, ahem, winter outside. 

http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Morris&state=MN&site=MPX&lat=45.5859&lon=-95.9053

So I have some questions:

1.  Does it violate any of Western Union's terms if I wire USD for the purpose of purchasing BTC?
2.  Will anyone lend me substantial BTC for, say, 48 or 72 hours?
3.  The address for this loan is 12v797D55bBBBgFMcWUfRzzFWAcHxYdYzg
4.  I understand all of us can look for activity on that address at http://blockchain.info, so this is very transparent.
5.  I want total BTC funds to translate to $1,750, so that I don't run short from some surprise.
6.  I'll repay $17.50 interest in USD through Western Union next week, prorated.

I'm visible on Google.  Aubrey McIntosh.  Review & decide.

I am hoping to find someone, preferably in Virginia, who will rent me a home and let me pay in bitcoins. I would also be okay with New Hampshire. Hell, if I could find somebody willing to work out an arrangement like this, I'd probably move just about anywhere.

Sorry.

As a Canadian, I would like to formally apologize for the unprofessionalism displayed by my apparent neighbours.

I assure you that there are many Canadians who know how to use features like spellcheck and understand the purpose of paragraphs.
One can never underestimate the power of proofreading a post before clicking POST.

In short, sorry.
eh.

Even in Texas, many of us can spell when we really try & make use of hired help and spell checkers.

No, RETARD, you and alikes, people lacking any fucking sense of "something is not right", are doing the biggest harm to this community. Just fuck off, OK?

You've got 45 posts and a piss-coloured ignore button. I see your opinion matters a lot.

Also, to LoweryCBS, it seems like a bad idea to tell you this as we've done a PayPal to BTC trade before, but it isn't difficult at all to reverse this transaction if you call up your CC company and file a chargeback.

Thanks for pointing that out.  In addition to, um, goldenrod and grey, what other colors do the ignore buttons come in?

On to the main idea...  Is this a business opportunity to run an escrow service?

1518  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Need script to automate BTC deposit and USD wire withdrawal through Mt.Gox API on: January 31, 2013, 03:11:05 PM
Thanks for your offer. I will definitely consider it.

In the mean time, can you hint me to what API function(s) will you use to initiate a withdrawal request.

Also, for the recurring functionality, do you intend using crontab or own calendar/timer?

This request still remains wide open for offers

For the withdrawal request, one option is mentioned on https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/MtGox/API/HTTP/v0#0.2Fwithdraw.php
0/withdraw.php
withdraw / Send BTC
To make a withdraw in another Currency , use group1=USD2CODE and add a Currency parameter ( example Currency=EUR to get a mtgox EUR coupon )

One very simple approach is to have a human readable list of days of the month that you wish to autowithdraw. (e.g. 10th, 25th) and to make the script a one-shot that re-schedules itself at the next desired time.

I usually think of PHP as event driven on a server, not schedule driven from a client.  The crontab job could be a tiny web client that just pulls a certain URI from your server running the PHP script.


1519  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Need script to automate BTC deposit and USD wire withdrawal through Mt.Gox API on: January 31, 2013, 08:30:41 AM
I am calling all willing developpers to bid for the following work:

1. Develop a script that I can run privately to automate the selling of my BTCs
2. Needs to work through Mt/Gox API only
3. No complex UI required - I will be the only person ruining the script, but it must be able to perform at least the following functionality:

3.1 Compulsory
a. Should be able to enter and store my Mt/Gox user account credentials securely
b. Create BTC sell order at the highest "ask" value at the moment (instant selling of BTC)
c. Set the USD level above which to enable the automatic creation of the withdraw request
d. Set a day(s) of the month on which to initiate the automatic withdraw request (subject to reaching the level at rule "c")
e. Specify fixed USD amount to withdraw
f. Keep running as long as there are BTC in the Mt.Gox wallet
g. Send me a message if something happens out of ordinary (i.e. notify me only if there is something wrong)

3.2 Optional
a. Include market analysis routine that will allow to maximise the exchange rate, set higher sell-order level if there is time before the next auto-withdrawal date

4. PHP preferred, but can be anything really, as long us I can set and run the script on my PHP/SQL shared hosted web-site and run it from there.

Also, willing to buy a ready-made script, if it does most of the functionality I need

Please respond with your price offer and time-frame, either here or via PM.




1 month.
$4,000.
Non-exclusive.
3.1 items guaranteed.
We have to refine an agreement on "enter and store ... credentials securely."

(I am willing to do this for 80 BTC if paid & non-refundable in time to order the batch 2 Avalon unit, i.e. very soon indeed.)


I have previously written a semi-automatic currency trade client that I ran on the now defunct XStreetSL exchange.  It accomplished over 30,000 trades between SLL and USD.

1520  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: 18x Icarus FPGAs, $250 each shipped ($299 Avalon upgrade credit) on: January 31, 2013, 03:54:34 AM
I'm selling the remainder of my FPGA cluster which consists of 18x Icarus FPGAs.  All are working perfectly averaging 378Mh/s.

I was planning on trading them in for credit towards Avalon units but there is too much uncertainty for me with the way the pre-orders are being set up for the second batch.

Looking for $250/each shipped in the continental USA, BTC preferred but I can do Paypal or Dwolla if necessary.  According to the Avalon site http://launch.avalon-asics.com these are each good for $299 credit toward an Avalon unit, so if you were thinking of placing a large pre-order for batch #2 this could save you some money.  Preference will be given for people interested in purchasing multiple units.

I've traded with a lot of users on the forum in the past and prefer to deal directly, but if escrow is required for a BTC purchase I would like to use Graet @ Ozcoin.


I'll add pics this evening.





Will Avalon give credit for multiple Icarous units for 1 second batch unit?
