Maybe they should just back their currency with Bitcoins instead of introducing it as the national currency?
+1 even the US of A could/should do this.

I meant asks.
bids, asks, doesn't matter; whatever he can to try and get the price down. LOL, idiot!

In System Preferences > Language & Text > Text, there should be a list of "substitutions". OSX will automatically substitute a few characters by a new character, if it's in the list. You can add a new one there, for example "$B" into "฿". OSX will then change "$B" into "฿" if it encounters it.
doesn't work in Chrome or Safari for me. ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif)

Steve (a few posts up) mentioned how you can use mac's autoreplace to do something like that.
i got stuck at the part where he says "substitution".

If you want to type the Bitcoin currency character easily, you can add it to your keyboard layout. I'd share my new layout, but I personally use the Colemak layout and no one is using that anyway, I guess. You can download the Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator (also works on windows 7) to edit it yourself. If people let me know what keyboard layout they use, and what location for the is ฿the most convenient, I might fix up some installers tomorrow. i use a MacBook Pro. it would be cool to use the $ sign for ฿ in Chrome

nice little wall right at the bid. when have we seen that before?

If I felt that that was a requirement (vs. a nice-to-have), I would consider Bitcoin to be walking dead. Any maybe it is. Who knows? I don't think it's a requirement for Bitcoin to function, especially with the possibilities of decentralized p2p dark exchanges, and of course there are other methods as well. But if exchanging isn't 1) very secure and 2) very easy, it will stop Bitcoin adoption entirely. There will still be small adoption from certain segments but anyone who's a "regular joe" is not going to have anything to do with Bitcoin. And this will mean that Bitcoin will remain as a niche of a niche. Which also means that one Bitcoin will not be worth very much when people realize this, because the value of Bitcoins is mostly supported by speculative demand. That's the worst case. What I'm certainly hoping for is that the exchanges get proper licences, accept regulation and start to be more reliable. It's totally unacceptable that we have exchanges announcing every week that "deposit method x is unavailable". This is not how reliable exchanges work. I'm expecting big, positive announcements from the main exchanges during November. If not, I will be disappointed and remain bearish. But would you expect regulatory authorities to be impartial and fair to Bitcoin exchanges? look what happened to Amir Taaki and Intersango. he says the bankers have led him on and cost him thousands in his attempt to become accepted into the shark club. i don't think it happens and even if it did, a year from acceptance he could be shut down.

So you are saying that Mt Gox is artificially manipulating volatility with non-existant buy and sell orders that disappear when you try to take them? In the small burst upwards last friday, I thought the askwalls at ฿3.35 and ฿3.50 were fake too. They were steep, like the bidwalls used to be before this small-increment thingey came around. But nope. in a few seconds, 20 000 bitcoins were actually bought. there are real buyers out there looking to scoop up cheap coins. look at how the top 5 Bitcoin holders EXPANDED their holdings.

highly unlikely. as discussed in another thread, mtgox makes more money the higher the price so one would wonder why they would've allowed the price to fall so far down from the top which has hurt their revenues immensely.
|
|
|
But the top 5 is getting bigger.
good eye. who said the early adopter big accts were dumping Bitcoin and destabilizing the price? these are the dedicated Bitcoin Backers who believe in Bitcoin and are helping to support the price. they understand the technology and are using these price dumps to scoop up Bitcoin on the cheap. the lemming sellers don't understand whats happening.

It is still possible to send/receive money from/to europe, now without the cheap SEPA possibility it cost more fees - thats all.
you have to use the 'international wire' option at mtgox.
its a IBAN/SWIFT way, usually very fast (1-2 hours total on a businessday for my IBAN/SWIFT withdraws) but banking fees on both sides.
if you want to withdraw big money (>10.000 US$) its quite NO PROBLEM. Fees are together (both sides) about 45 US$.
i've always just used wires.

How nice of you to crop it so you can't see the bear trendline before it.
The long term bear trend line is broken by this bull trend for the first time since July (hence the rally). Also this just happens to be the current trend - it may fail - at which point I will sell. I'm not suggesting the trend lines won't be broken - but it seems a reasonable guide for the short term. don't worry, he only sees what he wants to.

this is a great example of why central bankers need to be banished once and for all from the face of the earth. this type of unilateral abuse of their citizens currency is appalling and only serve to make themselves money at the expense of everyone else. i can't wait for Bitcoin to get up and moving.

yeah, i'm sitting here watching the ramp. interestingly stocks have not budged one iota. good for the bullish case there.
any thoughts on any MF Global correlation?

How quickly does the mtGox trade algorithm move? If you put in a buy for say 100000 btc at 10$ to grab all the open sell orders, how close would the timestamps be on all the little transactions that creates?
within seconds

hey, the extent of my being "into it" has not changed since the very beginning way back before the price ramp. I can attest to that. For the past few days, cypherdoc has been unrelentingly positive ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Actually I'm referring to back since the beginning of the year. And just who did start this thread on the 18th?
