An idea passed through my head.
Would this be easier if we were to make a GLBSE asset called ShakDebt or something. Issue an contract in proportion to the total debt. Pay collections directly to it and keep everything updated on a blog? This would allow possible return on the shares if they start trading. I figure this would help GLBSE, bitcoin, give me further incentive to repay faster as that would be the backing of this.
Any thoughts?

thought: i've never used glbse and have no immediate plans to... would your suggestion complicate things for glbse newbs?

Googling "bitcoin forum" + keyword

i'm still searching for a search engine that doesn't suck.

have you noticed how google's 'verbatim' search, isn't?

the next generation, is not so gullible

i think they're just as gullible, it's just that the questions have changed.

which information is constantly being better organized.

i also think that the rate that information is becoming more organised is proportional to the amount of information we're overloaded with... cancelling one another out somewhat.

What you paid for inventory is irrelivent.  What matters is what price consumers are willing to pay and they don't care if you bought at $30 or $3.

what's relevant is the cost of replacement of your inventory.

if you paid $3 some months ago, and a customer wants to buy today, what are you going to do with the money they give you? you're going to restock, at TODAY'S prices.

The only thing I can add to this is that you need to maintain multiple identities... and with everyone you interact, pretend to be an intermediary between them an your other identities... oh, yea, I know this guy... lemme get in touch with him. if you're into drugs, voip hacking, and bitcoin/money laundering.. you need to keep separate identities for those three "people".

agreed. if you can do this well, you probably wouldn't even need to keep most of them secret. you just need a lot of them. if you can't juggle multiple-personalities in your head, keep detailed records of each persona (name, address, date of birth, email, passwords, etc) in an encrypted document and backup, backup, backup.

disclaimer: i may or may not be tuxavant, replying to my own post.

Also, now that my donation status is gone. That btc I donated should go into the fund now that its been taken away.

agreed, even if i weren't a stakeholder.

maybe they should delete 1000 of your posts too, so that you're no longer a Hero. not being serious

...for a total of 960 gigabits, just below a terabit. IBM is unveiling the prototype chip today at the Optical Fiber Communication Conference in Los Angeles, calling it "the first parallel optical transceiver to transfer one trillion bits of information per second."

wrong!

that's like saying usain bolt was the first to run 100m in 9 seconds.

Is this one of those base 10 vs base 2 problems?

yeah duh, normally i don't get caught out by that but looks like i was wrong this time... 960 'gigabits' is 1030792151040 bits.

It's a shame my brother changed jobs as I think he was working in the same town and would have been very good at getting answers (but he now elsewhere in Australia).

I've been very supportive of this exchange since it's inception and done a lot of trading, but was in the process of extracting my funds for legal fees on a case I'm taking and have around AUD3000 in limbo land.  That's enough for me to jump on a plane and fly to Aus and accept a cheque or an atm withdrawal in person.

Not good enough Andre.

in comparison, i'm about 45 minutes drive away and have $497 in limbo... definitely worth the drive if i thought i could get it paid in person, but i very much doubt that andre's going to be able to do that.

Disconnect your computer from the network and generate some Bitcoin addresses. Print them to paper several times.

intermediate step: secure-wipe your printer's flash-memory cache. (don't ask me how to do this, i'd have to look it up).

Close your browser and reconnect to the Internet.

I did the exact same thing as seen here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=57855.msg687102

This is obviously user error but it is encouraged by the poor UI.

agreed. although i haven't made the error myself, yet, it seems common.
1639  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Got my BFL Single today and I'm giving it away for 0.5BTC! on: March 08, 2012, 11:27:25 PM
can you give me more of a discount? it's a good deal, but what about 0.49 btc?
1640  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What happens if... on: March 08, 2012, 01:08:50 PM
I'm not too sure how useful it would be with only 1000 BTC in circulation - if there's no liquidity, it's quite hard to have a market.

there could easily be exactly the same amount of liquidity as we have now... just need to add a few more decimal places.
