50 BTC worth.

EDIT:  Here's what I don't understand... How does he know it was his former employee?

Quote
I lost a bit more than 560,000 DGC due to an ex-employee copying the wallet file and later key logging the password from the work computer. Most if not all of it was already dumped (those are the massive sells you noticed yesterday).

This will not affect anything when it comes to DGC's development. I'm probably more motivated if anything.

How does he know said ex-employee made a copy of the wallet file, and keylogged the password?  How does he know it wasn't someone outside who managed to hack his network or something?


Why do want want to attack this with logic and reasoning?


~BCX~
Here's motive, too:  He wanted money.  He could sell the coins himself, pocket the 50 BTC, but then faith would be lost in the currency if the founder is selling a bunch of it, and the rest of his DGC holdings would be worthless.  So he claims it was stolen, sold off in "those massive sells" yesterday, so that he can sell a large amount of his own coins without raising anyone's suspicions.

To me, his facts seem too definite.  He knows more, without question, than he should be able to.  On top of what I've already mentioned, somehow he knows that the coins sold on the exchange yesterday were the same ones that were "stolen".  Sure, one might make a reasonable conclusion to that effect, but with certainty?  He seems certain.  Why?

EDIT:  Also, he mentions nothing about the ex-employee as far as prosecution or recovery.  It's like $30k was taken from him and he just doesn't care.  Who doesn't care about $30k?  Also, who doesn't change passwords after an employee who had access to the machine storing all the money leaves?  That would be the first thing I would do, and I'm not even a very security-conscious person!

My wife loves the pink tools...

Different strokes for different folks, I guess.  The UO student is free to buy the more manly-colored ones.

Such beautiful coins, do you think ANACS would grade any pysical cryptocurrencies or just Casascius?
Thank you!  I believe they would grade any of them - they were very open to grading these Casascius coins, and as far as I know, I was the first one to inquire them about it.

For each trade, there is a winner and a loser.  Every once in a while, two losers.  Just remember that.

There are some free web image programming controls and you can use them to create different image formats (such as Bitmap, Png, Tiff, etc).
I realize this, I was just hoping for something that already existed and wouldn't require programming on my part.

Don't buy gold or bitcoin, buy scarce non-renewable resources instead.
Get yourself a barrel of oil and store it. You'll be a billionaire in 30 years.
Troll spotted.
Not really. If they don't find any new oil resources it will eventually run out and people would buy oil at very high prices.

Nope. The price of oil will go up and stabilise as demand will decline with time.
We only depend on oil on short term, not on long term.
Once you switch to other energy and technology you are not dependent on it any more.

No point on keeping oil-barrels as storing is very expensive : the volume is very big compared to the value.
Oil-barrel need maintenance, you need to protect them from heat, cold, water and damages.
Your oil-barrels can get robbed or damaged.
Almost no one is buying oil at the ratio of a single barrel. Transportation is too expensive to consider delivering a single or few barrels.

Even if the value of oil increase, you need to find a buyer, deliver it and you have to pay years of storage.


Even if we switched to 100% electric vehicles,   every single mechanically moving device (including the cogs in an electric motor) rely on... you guessed it.... oil.  Oil will ALWAYS be precious. Think about it, think about every single moving part in machinary in industry that builds... well... everything!
That's what synthetics are for.  And there will always be enough non-synthetic oil for these purposes.

I've used this on my Minecraft website, but it's no longer relevant because it still looks up MtGox prices.  Is there an equivalent for this that pulls data from Bitstamp instead?

Thanks.  I'm looking specifically for something that will generate an image though, as I need to include it in BBCode scripting.
