NEW SILK ROAD T-Shirt

Hi, I don't trust clicking on any links that are posted on this site.  Maybe I'm paranoid.  But I would like to see the t-shirt--can you just post the image within the thread here?

<snip>There are some old folks very happy to collect stamps, you know.
Hey!  I collect stamps, I'll have you know and I'm not old.  I also write letters and pay my utility bill the old-fashioned way with a check through the mail.  And I still text and use a smart phone and all the other new-school ways of communicating as well.  And I use bitcoin, and from my limited understanding of bitcoin I think its problems are way overblown.  But I do admit my understanding is limited.  I don't want any dissing of stamp collectors here.  LOL

The banks are basically making free money off of us. This article explains it well:

http://money.cnn.com/2016/01/14/investing/atm-overdraft-fees/index.html

When are we going to see mass bitcoin solutions to these problems?

I thought about overdrafts earlier today, how archaic they could become when Bitcoin takes over.  So much about the banks is predatory, especially on people that are middle class.  I remember in college I got 2 overdrafts totaling 70.00 for a pack of gum and a sandwich. 
Yep, I just had a bank account closed on me because I refused to pay $30 for an overdraft where I had a cash deposit in their night deposit box.  Fuck em.  And it was for something like a $3 item.
16264  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Could I start an escrow service? on: January 20, 2016, 11:23:21 PM
You've been a member here less than a month.  Why would I use you and not one of the other escrow services that have a proven, trustworthy track record?

The answer is, no offense, I wouldn't.  You're right, people scam for less than $1.  I'd be afraid that you would be one of those people and I would not use you for escrow.

I wouldn't scam for $1. Check my threads, I've had $10 in loans without collateral & didn't run. I've done over 0.5 BTC ish worth of deals & transactions on here. There is no exact reason to use me, I'm just considering it in case someone needs a quick escrow for their transaction & can't find anyone else considering most escrow services don't do low amounts like $5 & are pretty busy so they can't respond to everyone.
But no one besides you can know your intentions, we only know your actions.  And you don't have enough of a track record here to really be an escrow.  But go ahead and try it if you want and see if people will go for it.

New Rules

Upfront payment for every 10 posts.

To join our signature campaign:

1. Register and deposit at our website, 12dailycoin.com.
2. Post your username here.
3. Change your signature.
4. We will provide an upfront deposit payment to your account in 12dailycoin.com for every 10 posts.
5. You can start posting now. After 10 posts, let us know and we will give you a deposit payment upfront for every 10 posts again.


Got the upfront payment. Still 0.01 BTC missing for older posts.

OP only pay for 10posts so if you post more then you wont be paid for the excess. so better wait for the upfront payment again before doing more posts

Why do you put this rule? You're paying too late for the work here. And if you pay to the site account, how long will it take to withdraw? Is there any hidden condition to withdraw? IMO, it is better to run as it is now, or run like the standard signature campaigns. If you're instantly and automatically processing withdrawals then it is ok to fund into site account. Otherwise, it would be worse. I suggest you to reconsider your decision and encourage to revert to the previous payout model.

I created a test account on 12dailycoin.com. I got a free bonus of 0.01 BTC. It has earned a profit of 0.00156. I tried to withdraw. The site says, I have to deposit first and then try withdraw. If you transfer the signature campaign payouts to the site, then I need to deposit my own coin and ask for a withdraw. This is not good for a signature campaign payout. Revert back to the old system. Advertising should be a separate one with the site business.
It's a scam you fucking knucklehead,  what do you expect?   You're trying to be rational with a Ponzi scheme, and it's inappropriate. You're asking a shark why he eats smaller fish.
16266  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sell now in bubble? on: January 20, 2016, 06:32:14 PM
It is definitely not a bubble.

Perhaps the run to 1200 was premature.  But I wouldn't call what happened even then a bubble.  "Bubble" implies that there is little inherent value to the object of speculation.

It is likely a good time to buy, not sell. 

BTW, I don't think the halving will be a big driver of value.  There are other drivers that are more important in my view.
That isn't true, though.  A bubble just means the values are inflated well past the point of rationality.  There usually is very real inherent value.
16267  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: "Bitcoin is Dead" - Mike Hearn on: January 20, 2016, 06:28:22 PM
wow! what a claim. bitcoin can't be dead so soon. no one can control it all. unless he will do unbelievable things over it. If he did He will be at war to all bitcoin users and believer.
I'm like part-time into bitcoin and I don't read a lot of news or a lot of anything, and I should.  But I don't know who this guy is.  Or why his opinion carries extra weight.

Asshole, you copy pasted part of my comment on the first page. Good job retard, it's been reported.

Anyhow it looks like the price of bitcoin has rallied quite a bit since Mr Hearn made his comments.  Not bad!  This is resilience and that's definitely a positive sign.
16268  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC price increase estimate for the day/week stock market crash occurs on: January 20, 2016, 05:49:54 PM
I'm a bit surprised that bitcoin is rising today as the stock market is getting shat upon.  Bitcoin is definitely not as safe as stocks, relatively speaking--if a flight to safety happens, it should be toward precious metals and things like that.  Don't know about an estimate for the price of bitcoin but I'm happy to see it rising.

It sounds like you are blatantly recruiting people to do trollwork for you.  Even if that's not your intent, that's what it's going to turn out to be even if the posts are on-topic.  I have a feeling, though I don't know for sure, that mods are going to have a problem with this. 

I'd be extremely interested to see what you're going to have for a signature.

I am not promoting any type of such behavior.  I have made very clear rules about being on topic.  Look at my Trust - all because they do not want to allow people freedom to speak unless they are in the correct group.
Being on-topic, yes, but you are paying people to promote what otherwise might not be their opinion.  And that opinion is going to be negative stuff--you call for that in your advertisement.  So that's the trolling part.  It's going to be an anti-suchmoon gang bang with your minions getting paid by the squirt.

I believe the post quality estimate.  That price estimate is waaaaay inflated.  I'd never pay that amount for a member account with a shitty posting history.  OP, forget it.
16272  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin: more lives than a cat! on: January 20, 2016, 02:52:12 PM
21,000,000 lives.

I thought bitcoin was dead for quite a while, way before I actually bought any and before I joined bitcointalk.  Now I realize it's going to take a lot to kill it and I don't think that'll be accomplished anytime soon.  Bitcoin has a dedicated (but relatively small) user base keeping it alive--the devs and so forth, and it gets used a lot for dark market transactions.  Definitely not dead.
16273  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitfinex does not let me withdraw my Coins ! (DANGER) on: January 20, 2016, 02:45:17 PM
BITFINEX !!!


Whatever you do, mind that the network is flooded with some attack today, again.

This means your coins can get delayed for several hours.

Just my opinion.
The bitcoin network?  I had not heard this, and I haven't made any transactions lately so I haven't noticed.  Hmm.

OP just hang in there and hopefully all will be resolved--unless bitfinex pulls a Cryptsy, which I doubt.
16274  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sell now in bubble? on: January 20, 2016, 02:43:17 PM
i don't consider the price going up $25 in a short time to be a bubble. if it went up to $800-$900 right now after sitting under $400 just a few hours back, then it would be completely different. right now the price is recovering to its normal price level. it was about to happen and many people were expecting it to happen within this month, and it did.

It happened very sudden though
Yes, that's bitcoin.  How long have you been following the price?  Back in 2013 when we hit $1200, the price swings could take your breath away.  The fluctuations you're talking about are only sort of big and not really surprising either.  We were at $450 last week.  So I would say just hodl.

Users who agree promoting/helping this scam and join the signature campaign out of greed may get negative trust too...
From EcuaMobi, Shorena , me and Lutpin
Duly noted,  mexxer.  Yeah these rates are way too good to be true and there's no way I'd be promoting a ponzi.  Dang it all.
16276  Economy / Lending / Re: Looking for a 5.0 BTC loan on: January 20, 2016, 05:14:13 AM
Sorry, I can't stand people who thrive off of other people's debt.  It's a shady thing to do and in most cases a shitty thing to do.  And you're not going to get your loan here, sorry.  You ought to take a look at the stickies in the lending section to figure out what valid collateral is.  5 btc is a lot of money and unless you can put up some sort of altcoin or easily salable digital asset, you've got no chance.  Your newly-gotten negative trust is well deserved.
16277  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Washington Post: 'R.I.P. Bitcoin. It’s time to move on' on: January 20, 2016, 05:06:17 AM
So much FUD in one article it's disgusting

"Bitcoin was born with serious flaws.  It was unregulated and provided anonymity, so it rapidly became a haven for drug dealers and anarchists. Its price fluctuated wildly, allowing for crazy speculation. And, with the majority of Bitcoin being owned by the small group that started promoting it, it has been compared to a Ponzi scheme."

Fuck this guy and his bullshit reporting.
Yep, I'll agree with the part I bolded, and I have no problem with either one of those things even though I'm neither a drug dealer nor an anarchist.  Drug dealers and anarchists also use cash by the way, and I do believe cash was the first haven for both populations.

almost 5 gigs ? holy shit man.. zipped ?

should of created a WinRar solid archive using max compression etc.

I'm downloading now, and what's weird is that it's making this forum run uber slow, but not when I view other pages on the Net, including videos streaming normally.

The forum and/or I/we are under attack it seems. I saw a few "bad gateway" errors earlier and my browser froze/ almost crashed when I tried to bring up that hangout vid on Horus' page.

I can attest to this, I saw the same earlier tonight, but then all was fine after a minute or so. 

Interesting developments, sort of.

Don't agree with the phases here, those are kind of radical.  It would not serve us evolutionarily to be pansexual, or even homosexual (no offence intended).  It is nice that we're becoming more tolerant, that's an improvement.
What's needed is not more tolerance, but more INtolerance of ignorance and superstition. More assertion of self-evident scientific truth.
Well OK.  But we all have to get along together on this earth and being intolerant of our fellow man's sexual preferences and appetites doesn't help this.
