None of the exchanges are honest, just some are more cooked than others. Btc-e has been the best exchange so far, but you never know if and when it'll go down. Best thing to do is use paper wallets with in-person trades.

Just get a real-life job and use some of the money you earn to buy BTC. You'll probably make more BTC like that than if you offer a service on here, unless you're really good at coding.

The perfect gift for that special someone! Tongue
164  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is driving the price crazily up???? on: May 20, 2014, 06:46:02 PM
I wouldn't say that the price is rising crazily, but it does appear that the downtrend is reversing. If I had fiat on an exchange right right now, I'd exchange it into BTC asap.

Hey Panda I've noticed that there are more people with paid sigs getting banned and a lot of them have very poor English. Perhaps you can make good English skills a requirement for eligibility, as they're making all of us look bad. I haven't really seen many spammers in your campaigns though, as I'm sure you thoroughly check each member's posts.

Well, let's see: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=234380;sa=showPosts

Your friend's posts are of very poor quality. The fact that their English really sucks doesn't help their case much either. Yours are not much better. I hope sig campaign operators start making good English skills a requirement to be accepted. I'm gonna bring that up with them.
167  Other / Meta / Re: Where is theymos???? on: May 20, 2014, 04:24:27 AM
Maybe he has a full-time job? Plus, he probably has tons of PMs to deal with whenever he comes online. The donations are supposed to go towards the upkeep of this forum and the development of new forum software. Of course, he's got more BTC than he needs to run the forum, but most of them were donated when the price was very low. Can't blame theymos for that.

What happened to all those $5000 by July predictions? Seems like most people are doubtful of even $1000 by July. I think we'll be in the $500s.

This one is pretty sick:

Seriously, who would buy something like that?
170  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin & PoW is a waste of energy & destroys nature on: May 16, 2014, 04:45:27 AM
Proof-of-Resource cryptocoins aim to solve the problem of wasted resources by rewarding people who share drive space and processing power with coins. There's a few already in the works like maidsafe. Shame they botched their IPO, but I'm sure someone will fork it once it's released.
171  Other / Meta / Re: Paid Signatures Increases Likelihood of Getting Banned on: May 14, 2014, 11:24:50 PM
You have to keep in mind that the forum gets paid for advertisements and us paid sig members are competing with them. I've only recently started renting out my sig space, but hey, if it's allowed as per the forum rules, then why not? I'd be making these posts anyhow, and getting a little btc for them is a nice bonus. EvilPanda actually withheld signature payment from a member who had low-quality posts last month, and I think the bans given out by the mods will deter spammers.
172  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [Restitution Proposal] on: May 14, 2014, 11:00:20 PM
Saudibull was quite a scammer himself. I doubt he's going to come back to claim any btc, but he doesn't deserve 1 satoshi. Maybe give it to one of his victims if any are still around.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=216414.0

There's more threads calling him out too I think.
173  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] IPO of MaidSafe:  Entering the Future of the Decentralized Internet on: May 14, 2014, 06:04:49 AM
With the way maidsafe botched their IPO, I wouldn't be surprised if their finished product is underwhelming. Another thing that maidsafe lacks is a great community. That does make a big difference and could easily give any competitors an edge. The only reason dogecoin became so popular is because it has a good and active community.
174  Economy / Speculation / Re: No Volume WHY? (20 minutes without any trades at all?) on: May 13, 2014, 11:12:27 PM
It's the calm before the storm. We'll be seeing some high volume trades soon enough, the question is whether it'll go up or down.

It's not going up absent a huge inflow of new fiat or Gox-like restriction on fiat withdrawals. So, down we go.
It's not going down absent a huge withdraw of old coins or Gox-like restriction on btc withdrawals. So, up we go.

With very little fresh fiat coming in and lots of new coins being mined everyday, this storm may force the price into a landslide.
175  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Should I be suspicious...? on: May 12, 2014, 06:46:27 PM
How do you know they're from different wallets?

You don't know, not that it really matters as long as you get paid.
176  Economy / Speculation / Re: it will reach $5000 before this year ends on: May 12, 2014, 06:23:32 PM
I read somewhere that an ETF would only be traded during business hours. Isn't that worse? Imagine the price dropping and people can't do anything till trading starts. I'd never buy btc like that.
177  Economy / Speculation / Re: You've all been fooled: China is NOT in control of this market on: May 11, 2014, 11:27:44 PM
http://bitcoincharts.com/charts/volumepie/

According to this chart, CNY accounts for only 7% of World bitcoin exchange market.  84% is in USD. 

Discuss.

No one country has been in control of BTC, as it is decentralized. It does appear that China's effect on prices seems to be waning though, but I'd give it several weeks more before proclaiming that we're past this whole banning scenario.
178  Economy / Speculation / Re: 457 HOLY SHIT on: May 10, 2014, 11:31:59 PM
It's nothing we haven't seen before. The recent highs keep getting lower, the adoption rate has slowed down. The price will probably go back down to the low $400s come Monday.
179  Other / Meta / Re: Some interesting charts on: May 10, 2014, 01:46:15 PM
Any updates on this? I think a few of the old guard may have gotten pushed out by some fresh blood.

I've decided to change to GAW.
