Best way IMO is build your own mini payment gateway with blockchain.info API

Create a homepage/frontpage with your product, here's an example:

Code:
<html>
<title>Wooden Spoons</title>
<head>
<style>
.pr {
        border: 1px solid #666666;
        border-radius: 3px;
}
#footer{
        font-size: 10px;
        color: #666666;
}
</style>
</head>

Then in order to process the payment create a separate PHP page for each item. This page can contain a form for the user to put in their shipping details. Then we generate a unique address for them to send their payment. After this an email is sent to your own personal email so you know who purchased what and which address they are sending your payment to:

Here's an example for item1.php file
Code:
<?php
$url 
"https://btc-e.com/api/2/btc_usd/ticker";
$json json_decode(file_get_contents($url), true);
$price $json["ticker"]["last"];
$usdPrice 20// SET THE PRICE OF THE ITEM HERE
$calc $usdPrice $price;
$itemPrice round($calc4);
$yourEmail "your@email.com"// ENTER YOUR EMAIL SO YOU CAN BE NOTIFIED WHEN SOMEONE BUYS SOMETHING

An asteroid could hit the earth.  Lightning could strike us randomly.  We could be hit by a car.  So many ways to die out there. Hence why it is wise not to put all our trust in money, BTC, gold, silver, or anything else but God. Smiley

Not trying to tick anyone off with this, but it is wise to think about the fact that death is something we will all have to encounter at some point.  Strangely,  death is something I really don't fear anymore.  Sure, the pain doesn't sound fun, but I have peace that there is so much more to look forward to on the "other side" thanks to Jesus.

LMAO "I believe in god because I'm selfish and want something out of it when I die. "  I'm a good person because I know I should be not because I think I'll be rewarded for it an after-life.

At what point would one have enough computing power available by using the energy from stars, to break the encryption of a bitcoin key within a reasonable amount of time? 

You still couldn't. Isn't that the whole point of the "bitcoin star" graphic?
1626  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: whats the most creative way of keeping bitcoins in cold storage on: March 12, 2015, 01:00:26 PM
Base 6 format private keys are 99 digits in length using numbers 0 - 5.
What comes in sixes??? Vowels!
Pick out a novel, a classic book that will never go out of print.
Then choose your special chapter and start counting vowels.
A=0 E=1 I=2 O=3 U=4 Y=5

"It was the best of times it was the worst of times"
=
"0113212013321" and so on

After 99 you will have a private key that you can never lose, assuming you can find a copy of that book.

USDX also about to break 100.





seems like should be a good thing but when we look at the dollar index we can see the dollar always comes back down... and that we look eerily similar to 2008 economic crisis .. i am trying to convert my strong dollars now while i still can because when the 'big block of cheese day' arrives everyone will be forced to make cheese cake who has lots of cheese stored in their favorite cheese accounts... it takes about 70-80% of the cheese to make a cheese cake... after the cheese is transformed into cheese cake then everyone who has cheese cake will get coupons that can buy fractions of bitcoins with their cheese cake coupons.

MMmmm cheese! I'm hungry now
1629  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 11, 2015, 05:23:32 PM
The fact that we are holding strong at these mid to high $290s is very promising for the bulls. Honestly I expected we'd be back down to the $260-70s after yesterdays run and people closed their longs.

Sentiment is still majority long.

there's going to be at lest 1 billion people interested in bitcoin in a few years and you idiots keep selling at 300 for a quick profit while keeping the price down.

Laughing at the one billion? ok let there be 10 million people interested, there is not enough bitcoin to go around so the price will go up....

HOLD

1 billion isn't that far out of the possibilities.
There are only ~7 billion people on earth.
40% of the population has an internet connection.
So 1 billion BTC users would be a little over 1/3rd of internet users.

sold most here. nice trade!!!

Looks like you weren't alone. A lot of people taking profit at the $300 mark

The exchange is also partnering with a major, yet-to-be announced US bank.

could it be JPM chase???



I gave my guess before when they first announced the partnering, and I still think it's going to be CitiBank.  Time will tell! Wink

You can create a delayed bitcoin transaction quite simply.
Donīt pay trancastion fee.  Grin


LOL funny and true.
When I first got started in 2013 I sent a dust amount like 0.00001 with no tx fee. (yea I didn't know what I was doing) It took over a month before it's first confirmation.

Agreed. We are at the upper resistance levels of the latest bull trend.

Have you traded futures yet bja? Moves like today can make your mortgage payment for 6 months in 5 minutes.
Approx ~5%
Holy schmokes how much are you trading with?


10x 30-50 coins so the same as trading 300-500 coins. $10 moves can make $3000-$5000. Thats just one way without scalping the chop and inevitable pull backs. The key is EXTREMELY good risk management.

Good luck to you, that's way too risky for me. I wouldn't want to risk a margin call on a stash of 30-50 coins to make a few grand.
