The rest of my post is about making the wallet act as a decentralised seed for downloading the client.  Or at least every (or some) wallets act as torrent seed on on I2PSnark - (http://www.ghacks.net/2007/06/06/anonymous-bittorrent-with-i2psnark/).  So the ability to obtain an electrum client is taken away from central servers. 

but that still depends on being able to download electrum no if you didn't save the source    If it does maybe make the wallet into some kind or encrypted p2p for downloading the wallet  So making electrum into a clone of the original wallet but instead of sharing the blockchain it shares the electrum wallet download. 

Yes correct the one I'm running is broader.  Supporting both bitcoin, lightcoin, namecoin promotion and support.  As well as support tech that may be useful to bitcoin like The Freedom Box Foundation (http://freedomboxfoundation.org/goals/index.en.html) and The Free Network Foundation (http://freenetworkfoundation.org/?page_id=772).  Or other opensource free software or hardware charities that may help the three main alt-coins or anonymous an/or p2p technology charities that accept alt-coin donations.

I'm very new to electrum but I like it a lot.  Like the mnemonic to restore your wallet    but doesn't this always depend on the electrum servers operating?  Why not make the electrum wallet into a p2p network with all the privet back up keys distributed among the wallets instead of a server.  If this takes up to much resource's for every wallet why not have a fee system set up of 0.0006 transactions fess so 0.0001 eaxtra and a private key recovery of 0.0006% fee of your holdings to be distributed amongst wallet network seed wallets.  I could be wrong about my idea I'm very new to electrum but with needing a dedicated server to back up your wallet wouldn't using a decentralised p2p network instead of depending on the servers be a better idea    Sorry if all of that just sounds like boulder-dash I'm new to electrum and just though depending on dedicated servers makes it vulnerable to attack and/or shutdown.

Because I work for him.  He's the one with the money to pay so chooses the winner.

Also changed it so it also supports litecoins promotion and development now

Reply from the dev who I'm running this bounty for who is choosing the winning logo and paying out the bounty on the CoinConnect site



yes the bounty is 10 btc, but to get the bounty we need to see something really special. These logos are nice but they are too much like what we already have, Think outside the box a little and I bet you will come up with something really special. Thank you for your entries and I hope to see more of your work.

Your entries would be posted on that link from now on.

Beat me to it didn't see your post.  I think there is room for more than one charity fund as mine it not solely raising for bitcoin project itself..  If I ever run out of time for my own fund I'll give whatever raised to your fund.  Good luck.

No way not seen that post.  Been thinking about this for a week or two now just finally fought of going through with it.  Maybe I should focus on donating to the btc accepting tech charities like Freedom box and Free network but more coin to bitcoin promotion and development the better I suppose.  There is room for more than one charity trust.  Say one folds the other fund could take it over.  Since they already have the ticker if I can't get a free ticker of Nefrio or raise enough over the next month I'll give whatever raised to them and donate the shares I was going to donate to my own fund to them also.

Starting a new charitable investment fund on GLBSE.  Where people can donate shares, coins or buy shares in the fund.  The shares will pay no dividend and just offer the right to vote on the funds motions.  All coin donated or shares purchased in the fund profits will be used to buy a spread of high yeilding stocks and bonds on the GLBSE.  90% of the funds profits will be reinvested (to be reviewed as the fund grows in proportion to the exchange market) while the rest will be donated 50:50 between BTC/LTC/NMC promotion and development, and the other 50% to tech charities that accept bitcoin donations that could help proliferate the bitcoin network.   Such as The Freedom Box Foundation - http://freedomboxfoundation.org/goals/index.en.html - and - The Free Network Foundation - http://freenetworkfoundation.org/?page_id=772 -  The 50% used on bitcoin development and promotion will be decided by motion on exactly where it should go.

I don’t have a lot of coin but do have a few shares and some free time to give this.  I offer to donate my time totally free of charge for the first twelve months and until if such a time when running the charity becomes a lot more time consuming.  Then in the future any costs of running the charity will be decided by motion. I will always be keeping 10% of the shares in the fund myself.  The shares pay no dividends and just offer voting rights in the charities motions.   All accounts will be made public.

So can we get the ball rolling to buy the ticker name - 1CcZtRGJK5x2ttW8DQW6S5C1U6DdwUkrw - then once we have a ticker people can donate shares and buy them for or from the fund too.

Also if anyone would like to donate time to make a website or hosting for shares in the fund then contact me.

Disclaimer - No shares will be bought in my mining stock at the moment as I've temporally changed it from dividend paying stock to a growth stock.  Investment would only start into my mining stock after a motion vote to do so.

I will be emailing Nefrio to see if he can offer us a free ticker due to this being a charitable fund.  If he say's yes then donations towards the ticker fee will go on buy the funds first high yielding shares.

Tip for litecoin CPU desktop 24/7 miners:  Always use 64bit linux OS and when your not using it say leaving it overnight install the Openbox desktop and start the miner from there.  I just did that and pushed my hash rate by over 10%    Not sure of the effects on GPU mining as I haven't installed Cuda yet.  Also I'm using an old dual core CPU so that might have more of an effect but an increased hashrate of over 10% isn't bad 

No I don't think every other exchange follows MtGox USD any more.  I think MtGox USD is now following trends and not just setting them.  MtGox market share is down.  GBP market share of currency's is down even tho it's volume is up.

Over 90,000BTC traded in the last thirty days.



The growth to this spike is a lot more gradual than the January spike so maybe the bubble won't burst.  Where will it be in thirty days >£5 it's looking.  People reckon the block reward drop will send the price skywards and it's getting nearer and nearer.  Looks like it could easily be ~£7 by the new year.

Hi all dividends are at the moment being reinvested until we have made enough through either mining profits or share sales to buy 40MH/s a share or 1GH/s for 10btc of ASIC mining power.  After that time 50% - 90% of all profits (will be decided by motion) will be withheld from the dividend to pay for more hardware to increase the dividend.  I can't tell you at the moment how much of a dividend that will pay post ASIC due to the difficulty change being unknown.  Although it works out like buying and running your own BFL-Jalapeño-ASIC or much cheaper than that if you live outside of the states and have to pay import taxes but with someone else running it for you reinvesting some of the profits and paying you the rest.   Please remember we are not a mining bond but a mining stock meaning your shares buy you an actual share ownership of all our hardware.  They are few shares on offer below our 0.40btc offer if you would like a discount or you can buy privately from the company to help speed up expansion.  Thanks. 

Why do you think the UK government has stationed over 14,000 soldiers, Surface to Air Missles, an aircraft carrier and 6,000 police in London for the Olympics because they are at war.  Although there is no Al-Qaeda General organising attacks.  I do think the invasion of Afghanistan may have been justified but definitely not Iraq.   

Al-Qaeda as an organisation like the IRA doesn't exist extremist ideology within Islam does.  You can kill political leaders but not an idea.  9-11 was the Islamic extremists bloodying the nose of america for fight.  7-7 in the UK was a response to our response on invading Iraq and Afghanistan.  They can't be beat no matter how hard you hit them as there religion just grows faster.  Also the invasion of Iraq was an absolute crime.  America and the UK have bloody hands and it's just fuelling there ideology.

No there is no Al-Qaeda the war on terror was to help usher in a police state I do agree but the US government would not use anthrax on it's own peoples or blow up the twin towers.   

There was a thread on this a few months ago.

Silk Road, InstaWallet or any shared online wallet like an exchange should mix coins for free.

Wouldn't they have just generated a new strain that couldn't be traced to there known stockpiles and it wouldn't have been difficult for them to do so.
