No matter what your main client is, I think people should run Bitcoin-QT to support the network!

As more people come on board I imagine we will need more nodes.
Hopefully some more big servers will be set up to take the load.
As I understand it, just being a node really doesn't have any significant impact at this point. If your not mining, there's not much of a point in being a node. (Correct me if I'm wrong.)

I am holding too much money for the forum. This is contrary to the forum's otherwise decentralized structure. I'd like to get some extremely trustworthy people to hold smaller chunks of the forum's money (maybe 250-500 BTC per person).

- You probably need to have been active in the Bitcoin community for at least a year.
- You probably need a very high OTC rating.
- You need to have dealt with far more BTC at one time than what you'll be holding for the forum.
- The list of "treasurers" and how much money they're holding will be public.
- The contract will be quite complex (I haven't finished writing it yet), as this is the forum's money, not mine, so you'll have to know what "the forum" is and in exactly which circumstances you can release the money.
- Full reserve is not a requirement, but you will be responsible for returning the money within a few weeks of a legitimate request no matter what.

If you're interested, post here with how much you would charge for this service and what your reserve policy would be.
While I can't say I've dealt with anywhere near 750,000 BTC, I've completed a lot of successful small trades on these forums and have never scammed anyone (I usually buy with paypal, so I definitely had a lot of chances,) and I obviously don't plan to in the future. I think my biggest selling point is that I have no problem giving out my personal information. I've used my real first and last name since I registered almost two years ago (and more recently, my middle initial,) and I'm perfectly willing to give my address and phone number through PM if you'd like to talk more about it.

I would also have multiple encrypted wallet copies on multiple computers. I would almost always be able to return the BTC within a few hours.

I'm not really sure how much a service like this is worth, but 1 BTC/month sounds fine to me. Full reserve.

Canada is the only thing that holds up the US economy. China is like a growth that leeches off of the US economy. And Obama sucks all the money out of big companies like best buy and puts it into the US economy. Clearly.

Well, shit. I hadn't lost for a little over five years until now.

I've actually registered two, but I only use this one, so I voted one.

Played and won .1818 BTC! Whoo, ~$4 for me! I like the site a lot. As the others have said, the design is very appealing. I was a little confused on how the free plays worked.

Some of your free plays will expire if not use within the next 100 Blocks. Use them Now!

^ That led me to believe that I had to do something to use my free play, and I didn't know how to use it. Eventually I figured out that it just plays it automatically. Other than that, everything was very clear to me.

The other day, my brother caught be saying "Some day, when I have money (...)" and he told me, "You're an adult who has money now. You don't get to say that anymore. Adults say 'Some day, when I win the lottery.'" So, I think I'll be buying a bitmillions ticket once a day now.

Django's fun, but as with Ruby on Rails, you probably won't be learning that in school. PHP is probably what you'll mostly be learning.

I was very disappointed in this years commercials. They mostly just seem like regular, non-superbowl commecials. There were a select few I liked though. I vote babylandia. Which ones were your favorites? (Don't anyone say GoDaddy. I'll kill you.)

Tomorrow we'll send 10 BTC for the next 10 beta testers.. sorry for the delay, we are improving the front end for new testers to have a better experience.

See you tomorrow!
How many bitcoins have you sent out already? 10, or 20?

I've uploaded a few videos, but they're not showing up. How long should it usually take?

I don't think squatting is really that big a deal. It's annoying, but we shouldn't abandon a project over it. .com's are squatted way more than .bit's, but people still find suitable .com domains for their websites.

Her room is a mess, so there's a real possibility she may be a true bitcoiner.
But the thread was titled "Meanwhile in my bedroom...." And it was posted by Yankee. That must mean... It's Yankee's room! Not hers! It's a conspiracy!





Unless they live together...

Where is MultiBit in this survey???

I use MultiBit, no blockchain, a good interface, it's what i need.
MultiBit uses the blockchain, it's just significantly smaller for reasons I can't remember. Anyways, your right, MultiBit should be in the poll.

I use Electrum.

Learning haskell is a lot of fun! For me, it wasn't so much about it being a good language. It was about wrapping my head around an entirely new concept in programming. Learning new languages is usually easy for me, because the popular ones usually share a lot of the same concepts. But purely functional programming is like an entirely different world!
