Did anybody else besides the questioner I'm questioning hear a robin?
Was it a round robin, or a square robin?
Do you think?
I think only on very special occasions; what about you?
Excuse my noobness, but is that mean that you usually never think, and only think when it was very svecial ocassion ? LOL
Are your thoughts so worthless that you give them away for free, or waste them in banal tasks like working or filing taxes?



Who here would name their startup BANAL when AANAL would have it placed earlier in queue when the entity is alphabetically listed with its peers?

i wonder if B is short for " being "?

Wouldn't there have been a full stop full go full stop full go full stop if it were?

Dear customers,

Our website is currently down due to HDD catastrophic failure.

We have been waiting for our ISP to bring it back online for the last 24 hours. 12 hours ago they brought it back online but the mysql database is corrupted. While we tried to restore it from the backup we lost ssh access and we are unable to login anymore. We are waiting for our ISP to restore the access.

We apologize for the inconvenience. We are doing our utmost to bring it back online but as the server is in Germany we cannot fix it ourselves and must wait for our ISP to fix it.

Thank you for your patience.

You are probably right. It must be painful to see your coins sitting there in plain sight. F*ckers.

In all, he followed more than 700,000 bitcoins along the public ledger of bitcoin transactions, known as the blockchain, from the marketplace to what seemed to be Ulbricht’s personal wallets. Based on exchange rates at the time of each transaction, Yum calculated that the transferred coins were worth a total of $13.4 million.
“You mean direct, one-to-one transfers?” prosecutor Timothy Howard asked Yum.

“Yes, direct, one-to-one transfers,” Yum responded.

They must have either used extensive manpower or have at their disposal one helluva program to complete such task. Either way, I, with just a laptop, successfully tracked BFL's bitcoin wallet addresses used to launder Sonny's over ten million dollars worth of bitcoins via BitPay sans a single purchased, albeit purchases is what's written on the invoice generated on BitPay's end. Image what I could do with even some rudimentary program in Alpha.

could this thread better described as troll party ?
You broke the chain, you really are noob arent you ?
so.... you like to be chained ? hmmm... i wonder what else you like ? candle ?
I like things that go boom; why on earth would I like something that melts ?
So you would rather have a chain reaction than a chain action, is that what you mean?
Obviously. BUT A rhetoric question isnt really a question. Do you have something else you can ask ?
Sure: would you agree that 21 is the answer to the mid-way question about half-life, the semiverse, and every other thing?

Did you forget to include "half-ass under the sun" at the end of your question?

15193  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Original November 2008 version of the Bitcoin paper on: January 30, 2015, 10:56:58 PM
Yup, this looks pretty genuine, even though I wonder why the sha256 hash of the document is mentioned on the web only recently (there's a discussion in the cryptography mailing list http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.general/22386).

The edits between the 2008 and the 2009 version that I see are mostly small clarifications. What I consider really interesting is the use of "broadcasted" instead of "broadcast" in the first version - I'm not entirely sure but to me that indicates that the original author's native language might not be english. I have seen this kind of mistake made by german speakers, but others are probably also prone to mixing up english language idiosyncrasies such as this ("to list" -> "has been listed" but "to broadcast"->"has been broadcast"). However, english isn't my native language either, and it's possible that native speakers make such mistakes, too.

Onkel Paul

By the way, the "CreationDate" attribute of the PDF states 20081003134958-07 for the first version and 20090324113315-06 for the second version, so it looks like the timezones of the creating computer(s) were american. According to DST rules, both would fall into the daylight saving time date range, so this were either two separate computers set up for different timezones, or one computer that was switched from one timezone to another one.

Bitcoin P2P e-cash paper 2008-11-01 19:16:33 UTC


I've been working on a new electronic cash system that's fully
peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party.

The paper is available at:
http://www.bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf

The main properties:
Double-spending is prevented with a peer-to-peer network.
No mint or other trusted parties.
Participants can be anonymous.
New coins are made from Hashcash style proof-of-work.
The proof-of-work for new coin generation also powers the
network to prevent double-spending.

Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System

Abstract. A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would
allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another
without the burdens of going through a financial institution.
Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main
benefits are lost if a trusted party is still required to prevent
double-spending. We propose a solution to the double-spending
problem using a peer-to-peer network. The network timestamps
transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash-based
proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without
redoing the proof-of-work. The longest chain not only serves as
proof of the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came
from the largest pool of CPU power. As long as honest nodes control
the most CPU power on the network, they can generate the longest
chain and outpace any attackers. The network itself requires
minimal structure. Messages are broadcasted on a best effort basis,
and nodes can leave and rejoin the network at will, accepting the
longest proof-of-work chain as proof of what happened while they
were gone.

It's different, but the differences is only at email & total page number only.
It is really the original bitcoin paper ?

And what is the connection between bitcoin & knitting ?

I'm probably the only person in this thread that's well-versed in knitting and crocheting. I could easily crochet the granny square blanket on Amy's sofa or knit a dickey for Howard.

Gleb - I can verify that they did move from a relatively small Rolla facility directly to Denver. I'm located in Rolla, and found out they were here in town a few days before the move so I saw their facility (with only 400A 240V service) about the 2nd of January while the packup was underway. I don't know if that was the first or second or ninth or whatever location in town, but I know they weren't 90 miles away. For what that's worth.

You are correct. There was no second warehouse as Matt detailed, hence my post at the time and now depicting how he lied to his customer base at the time.



Care to guess which item in the above pic Matt packed up last when he vacated his lease for the Missouri warehouse to head to Colorado after reneging on the $20K USD loan from his mother?

I would stay away... for now. I currently have an astro on order(I know presale=death but whatever, I gambled a bit here). Now this has been pushed back ALOT. First I think it was October shipping or something like that, then December and now February. But wouldn't you know it, lifeforcepools, a reseller, has been trying to be very diligent in keeping people updated.... recently.(Was very quiet for a LONG time). I actually got an email from him with pictures, that weren't rendering, of a board and a case, don't know if they are legit, maybe. so either someone is just stringing us along or they are actually in production. Now this is only for the scrypt boards, don't know about the sha256 boards, but I haven't seen any proof of production for the sha256 boards, but I also haven't been looking. My suggestion would be to hold off until you hear of a confirmed delivery. Just my thoughts though. As always do as you wish.

Lucky you, for the only saving grace is that you didn't pre-order, but actually ordered.  Roll Eyes

HASHRA is a UK & Hong Kong based company with its own distribution facilities in China that is committed to delivering the very best high performance hardware to mine Crypto Currencies.

After being continuously let down by suppliers for our own miners that never materialized or arrived on time, We went searching for our own mining hardware in China. It wasn't long till we realized that those partnerships could benefit other Crypto miners and so HASHRA was born.

We never do speculative “Pre-orders”, we only take orders for miners that we know for sure we can deliver.

HASHRA’s mission is to bring you the very best mining hardware today at the best possible prices and to have all our fellow cryptonauts totally supported with their mining quest!
