If 100% of bitcoin users migrated to Mastercoin and used it the same way, would it produce more load on the blockchain, less, or the same?
If more, why?
If distributed markets are implemented, I would predict more, as there would not be only transactions for transfers of currency, but also transactions for posting trading offers and executing these trades. I'm unsure if these order books are supposed to end up in the blockchain (e.g. in Ripple they do, but the ledger there is constantly pruned because of that) or not, in any case it might cause strain if they use the network to message each other about offers and the memory pool explodes. |

In case your Ripple wallet is not yet funded, you need to redeem at least 50 XRP to it by the way, at current rates (1:5) that's 250 WCG points. According to http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/stat/viewGlobal.do on averade that's about 2 hours of computation, one completed work unit yields about 500 points (or 100 XRP). I'm sure there are benchmarks around, my 2500k CPU for example will take about 1:20h for one work unit (working in the background) and can work on 4 of these at the same time. No, you won't get rich and depending on the exchange rate it might not even pay off compared to mining other coins... if you anyways would have loved to try something else besides mining with your CPU/GPU though, it might be worth a try. If you do not want the XRP, you can enter a Bitcoin address in the Ripple client (NOT in the giveaway!) and send your XRP to that address, everything over 50 XRP can be converted to BTC at market rates and will be sent to this BTC address. Happy "mining"!  |

Some people have been waiting more than a month. Something is obviously up.
Glendall, WHO has been waiting a month? Please do not post fud. Ticket COK-739293... 2013-05-20(!) I even attached a method for you to verify this without your server easily. |

Naja, im Taxi wird aber wohl eher mit Beträgen von max. 50€ gehandelt, oder? Fälschungen fangen meist (mWn) bei 50er Scheinen an...

It is a little bit less about the language but more about what you say and how you say it so to speak.
Make sure you know how to code securely and how to deal with monetary representations in code (hint: NO FLOATS, EVER!). The language itself is not that important, bitcoind for example has an RPC interface that is interfaceable with nearly any language anyways, so you can focus on what you build and not with what you are building it.

With physical access, you can extract encryption keys from RAM... anyways, if physical access is the only real concern that would already be great! |

I know this is frustrating, it is for us as well, it's a race against deposits, but what can we do? Maybe limit USD deposits? I don't know. We have a balance to find here. But the real solution is to find people who want to sell on Bitfinex. Miners who use us and profit from higher price than Bitstamp AND fast withdrawals. The problem is likely there because you are nearly invisible on external pages, especially on high level ones like bitcoincharts. As far as I understood you only want to list there, once you are completely legal and watertightly incorporated, right? |

Hasn't anti-virus/-trojan software caught up with this yet? Well, the ransomware software is actively developed and apparently actively funded too. Prices rising due to a few people buying 350 USD of BTC? Just calculate how much money has been flowing into BTC recently and then how many people with a virus this would have been... |

I'd recommend going to the Ripple forums with a link to this post.
Also it would be nice to know if you are technically skilled or can get soemone to help you. Support won't be easy and just like Bitcoin - if people loose their keys then that's it! There is no way that transactions can be reversed other than the other party sending it back.

You are, in my opinion, the single most rude point of contact/spokesperson a company could imagine.
Never dealt with MPOE-PR then, hm?  |

Naja, man könnte das genauso mit PoW regeln - die Miner bekommen dann eben weniger gezahlt, wenn wenig Geld eingefroren ist und mehr gezahlt, wenn viele Leute das Geld binden.

Localbitcoins oder Bitstamp z.B.

Urgh, ich weiß schon, wieso ich nicht Wirtschaft studiere...  Ist aber zumindest interessant zu sehen, wie schon so ein rel. einfaches Beispiel schon zu Verwirrung und unterschiedlichen Interpretationen führen kann. Wenigstens kann man dann die "korrekte" Version von einem Berater ermitteln lassen, ab dann kann man es vermutlich aus CSV-Dateien einfach rausparsen. |

Ah, also eher so:
Über ein Jahr verteilt folgende Trades:
1 BTC erhalten (einfachheitshalber nicht via Mining), dafür 100 EUR gezahlt. "Interner Preis" ab sofort 100 EUR pro BTC.
0.5 BTC verkauft, zu einem höheren Kurs, 100 EUR erhalten. Interner Preis ab sofort 200 EUR/BTC, 100 EUR nicht realisierter Gewinn, 0 EUR realer Gewinn.
weitere 0.25 BTC verkauft, wieder höherer Kurs, 100 EUR erhalten. Interner Preis ab sofort 400 EUR/BTC, 100 EUR nicht realisierter Gewinn, 100 EUR realer Gewinn.
Preis bricht ein.
Um 50 EUR 0.5 BTC gekauft. Interner Preis ab sofort 100 EUR/BTC, 75 EUR nicht realisierter Gewinn, 50 EUR realer Gewinn
Ich stehe also am Schluss mit 0.75 BTC da, die beim letzten Trade 75 EUR wert waren und habe 50 EUR Gewinn mit Trading gemacht.
Würde das so stimmen?
Ich nehme stark an, es sollte mit ledger auch möglich sein, Verkäufe auf ein Gewinnkonto zu buchen...

Das mit den Nachrichten geht erst ab version 0.9 von bitcoin-qt (in sehr beschränktem Rahmen - 80 bytes oder so). Das was die meisten Leute verwenden, ist ein Feature von blockchain.info, hat aber nichts mit Bitcoin an sich zu tun und wird nur auf deren Webseite angezeigt.
Das geht mit Vanitygen, einfach mal danach googlen.

Würden die Gewinne durch Trades nicht als entsprechende Balance übrigbleiben?
z.B.
1 BTC deposit, 0.50 BTC um 100 USD verkauft, *crash*, 0.30 BTC um 20 USD gekauft.
Endstand:
0.8 BTC, 80 USD
Gewinn in der Zeitspanne wäre also 80 USD - aktueller Wert von 0.2 BTC, oder?

Geh doch auf https://www.humblebundle.com und gebe einen Wert ein, den du per BTC bezahlen willst und dann wirste das ja sehen und kannst dir ausrechnen welchen Kurs die nehmen  da muss ich ja aber auch erst meine daten angeben und bestellen, oder?  Naja, warte ich halt noch ein wenig ab, bis ich mir was mit Bitcoins kaufe ^^ Mehr als mail wollen die doch nicht...geb irgendwas ein und dann erscheint ein Fenster von Bitpay was du an eine Adresse zahlen musst...kannst ja abbrechen. Letztes Mal (und die Monate davor) war das noch von Coinbase, auch diese Mal wieder. BitPay ist nicht der einzige Anbieter von Merchantlösungen... |

If you do not have the exact amount of BTC to pay Amazon, they now know at least another address with an active balance that 100% belongs to you (the address where the change went), so you either have to launder this or never ever spend it.
I am not sure what you mean by "compromising an identity", could you give an example?

It really depends on which features you need - if you need "Get TX info, number of confirmations" only for recent blocks or would be OK with waiting a bit until your client has fetched the respective data via bloom filters, you just need to prune the block chain to operate on a set that is maybe a few 100 MB large instead of 20 GB+...
The solutions the OP suggests are actually not really usable without trust but he is free to sponsor implementation of a DHT block storage if he thinks that's what is going to solve bitcoind's storage problems.
All his requirements can be fulfilled by bitcoinj today and it requires only to ensure you are not under a sybil attack, which might be a bit harder to detect than on a bitcoin-qt node.

What sort of exchange mechanism is planned to convert eMunie to fiat? Will the platform also accept PPC?
Eagerly anticipating the eMunie release...
As he said, it's possible to represent any asset, likely similar to Ripple. This means that you need gateways that hold the assets and issue balances on eMunie that can be traded on the platform and redeemed later from the gateway. It doesn't matter if these are carrots, PPC, USD or gold bars. |
