I dont think its a step - good or bad.

An easy way to get free publicity is all.
But good luck to them anyways.

Any business using Bitcoin is good and a step in the right direction.

buy FTC at 36 watch BTC-e announce they are pairing FTC with USD and boom double your $. Same thing happened with PPC they are sneaky. Prob even coordinated the attack on the forum yesterday to get sells to come into their 300BTC buy order.

FTC is going to sink further unless there is some serious news. The buy wall at 36 will break soon enough.

What makes you think that they are adding FTC/USD anytime soon? Having said this, it may be necessary as it is way too crowded in FTC/BTC.

Its just a hunch. They used a few dirty tactics to accuire alot of FTC . Another one was that they were delisting FTC (price dropped like 60%/BTC then later that day they recanted with an oops it was a mistake. Shorty after FTC rose 500% to like $1.20 a coin.

They have tons of FTC they will not just let it die. Watch remember this convo and see what happens shortly

I found their behaviour on this suspicious and questionable too. FTC has been pretty stagnant but I'm sure it'll rise sometime this year.

with bitcoin?

i hath 3 block erupters antminer u1 overclocked to 6gh/s but... thinking of buying a 60gh model or lower any there anny point to this ponzi scheme?? the difficulty just increases too frequently i mean 6gh is a lot anyway for a small thing i think its a lost cause most of us hath joined too late and it will probably end bad for the newc umers it woz best if you got in early and had thousands stocked up but now i fear its too late wayy to late i am not in denial as some

Forget about mining it. Concentrate of creating Bitcoin related services. That is where the real wealth is waiting to be scooped up. If you don't create something, someone else will.


I agree with this. There's going to be so many gaps for services and businesses opening up with the rising popularity of Bitcoin that it's going to be a gold mine for entrepreneurs (if it isn't already).

wel i hath 60k to spend from my grandad dying recently the house was sold and now i dont no wot to do with it fortunately he died sooner rather than later ive never had that much moni before in me life its a god sends


Good old God killing off your relatives so you can bask in the warmth or wealth, eh?

How about I buy cigarettes with bitcoin instead?

Don't waste precious Bitcoin on cigarettes that would be such a waste.

Why? For any currency to be a success one must be able to buy whatever they want with it - good or bad.

Oldest trick in the book.... everyon can pull out from the internet a picture of a chick and add "plz donate btc"...

But not everyone can put baubles on their boobs.

Problem is - they are not bitcoin related baubles.

A whore must be 100% real genuine whore AND put a little effort to find bitcoin props for her shoot to be relevant. A btc tattooed whore would get greater attention, but at least some btc panties or something?

Somebody posted their Bitcoin baubles in another thread somewhere. And I think you're putting too much thought into this Grin. Or just 'slut shaming'.

Might want to timestamp the pics with the date and your username. Most people wont trust a newb selling Apple stuff, especially on their first post.

Even if it poorly done, its a good advertise ploy, just to get their name out there in what every paper is chatting about BTC.

Providing it is legal, they should experiment with a bitcoin gambling machine. I'm sure that would be a big draw and would get them a lot of free advertising.

I am looking for something better then just good old paper to print paper wallet. But I cant seem to find anything. The closest I can find is water proof paper for maps.(don't know how thick it is) I like to keep a paper wallet with .01 btc in my wallet to help explain bitcoin  when asked. I am wondering if their is paper out their that is more like current currency than binder paper.

Books printed on "good old paper" can last hundreds of years. Don't see the need for "special paper". We have a similar thread about types of ink. Same thing again. Any normal ink is fine. Books that monks wrote 1500 years ago are still perfectly legible. I don't think hi-tech solutions are needed for paper/ink when doing paper wallets. Maybe don't use invisible ink though Smiley

Do they? Most books I have start to yellow pretty quickly even after a few years. And those old books are usually written on papyrus or hemp paper or some other form.

I put the referral link in my sig yesterday and already have 66 referrals. Nuts. Looking forward to when PD3 goes live.

How did you even do that did you use sock puppets or something?

Yes, I created 60 odd Primedice accounts just to get referrals  Roll Eyes. I already stated how I got them. And I have exactly 100 now  Grin.

There is NO REFERRAL currently, anything currently going to PrimeDice doesnt count and is not active.

I'm already aware of that.

Laminating it would stop it from folding properly to hide the privet key I would think. A card would work but they don't hold up all that well either.

Why don't you buy one of these: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=400367.0;topicseen

There's other cards available in the marketplace if you don't like that one.

Since I watched Batman Returns the other day, I thought I'd give The Dark Knight Rises another spin.

And just like I initially thought when seeing it in theaters, The Dark Knight is a superior film in every aspect imaginable.

I thought Batman begins was pretty shit, The Dark Knight was fantastic, and TDKR was all right.

CAn you help me out, im looking to pay someone to post ads for me on CL,  they dont take bitcoins only paypal.

I have a suggestion, why dont you create a own paypal account, which is virtual, and just use it for craigslist?

Oh, Craigslist. I've never used it before, but isn't it free to post on there, or do you want somebody to post listings for you?

This could be the start of some fun.

They claim they will not accept BTC for bets, but at least its a start that they accept it for food/rooms.

I wonder why they'll accept it for food/rooms, but not gambling? Seems weird.

I'm sure there is some legal reasons.

Probably so tight now because of the old days of the Mob and the skim.

If they can accept cash then why not Bitcoin? People bet with the chips anyway, don't they? Aren’t they just a form of money?

Why dont you guys just use torrent. It a great way to get movies

What's the point? I used to use torrents to download files, but why bother when you have a littl set top box that pretty much does it all for you, and without having to wait for the download.

To counter that you could say why stream when you can download the file to keep forever and watch whenever you want?

Because I can watch them whenever I want, with no storage needed. I have a huge external hard drive full of films when I used to download them, which is useful to have, but I much prefer the Pi for it now. When I'm in the mood for a film, I don't wanna have to wait an hour for it to DL on my crappy Sky Internet. I just boot up the Pi and search for it. So much quicker.

Surely if you can stream them fine you can download them fine too? Does Icefilms have every film that is available online, or do the links ever turn out to be dead etc? And you don't have to be in the mood for the film there and then, if you have them all on an external drive you can pick whatever you choose from that selection.

Yeah there are dead links sometimes, but there are loads to choose from. I've never had to go without because of dead links. They get removed pretty swiftly too. I guess that's true if you have them all on your hard drive already. I like that the Pi connects easily to the HDMI port on my TV and hides behind my TV nicely. Each to their own I guess. Either way, it's way better than Netflix!

Yeah, my bro always moans and asks why I download so much when I could just get netflix. I argue why even bother with netflix.

These arent just conspiracies, really only linking Obamacare to microchips is a conspiracy.  Even Google and Motorola are looking into microchipping and "electronic tattoos" for the near future.  It just seems strange that multiple shows pushing them are just happening to come out on different networks.

What's so strange about it? Technology/ the future is interesting and exciting. It's only logical that shows are going to exploit new and future technology.

Just use some quality paper or card and laminate it. If your keepin it on your wallet you should probably use card instead of paper. Or just ask some currency counterfeiters  Grin.
