New interface looks really nice. Good work.
Sorry if this has been asked and explain before but is there going to be any change in BFX's service due to Bitstamp's new ID and withdrawal policies?

... The timestamp could be from the .gov site or any site that crawled it.
And, as I explained, it would be worthless. I don't understand your obsession with it. And I still have seen no proof for what you are saying.
What exactly are you disagreeing with? I only made two claims: 1. There are dozens of people (Fed employees, board members) who knew the decision before it was public. or 2. Most of those people are very well connected with Wall Street and government officials. I was disagreeing with this assumption > When the Fed announces a 2pm release, they don't publicly release early. I think its entirely possible that the minutes were available on a public facing server before 2PM EST. If I was able to find half a dozen independent sources that had crawled this public facing page at 1:56 then the reasonable assumption to make would be that the minutes were released early, not that the half a dozen independent servers had their system times manipulated.

I assume this to be true, yet I still have not found actual data to support it. A time stamp would be great. A timestamp is worthless. It only records the system time, which can be off by several minutes either intentionally or unintentionally. I don't think you need to be looking for an early public release when there were dozens of people who knew early that are highly connected to both Washington and Wall Street. ...

today's whole FOMC exercise is the #1 reason why a centrally planned printing press favors those who control it.
i guarantee you someone other than just Ben knew ahead of time what the decision was going to be. which is precisely why the gold market popped a full 3 min before the announcement.
if there was ever a time and need for a "fair" money...
When were the meeting notes released to the public exactly? this is what you are looking for. times are PST: <snip> No, I want to know when a website first made the meeting notes available to the public. Pretty sure website makers knew after just about everyone else. ??What?? How are the meeting notes distributed to the public? I assumed some .gov site would just host them. Sure the news sites and blogs write up a story after the minutes are released... but I want to know the first moment a trading bot could have gotten the minutes from a public source. Pretty basic stuff, I was going to lmgtfy, but I'll be nice and give you a direct link: http://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/default.htmWhen the Fed announces a 2pm release, they don't publicly release early. I assume this to be true, yet I still have not found actual data to support it. A time stamp would be great.

When were the meeting notes released to the public exactly? 2pm EST Proof? Timestamp or something? Not doubting you at all by the way. I would just love to silence people who think the notes were 'leaked early to teh evil banksters' if the evidence showed that they were actually public a few minutes earlier.

I think I see the gates to Trendlessville.
Have we not been in Trendlessville for months now? All price movement of the last few months have been correcting the $260 high. An increase of over 120% in two months isn't exactly trendless. That is pretty much a good example of a trend. But if my thesis holds the coming more-or-less trendless 'baseing' forms the leadup to a sustained rally. Somewhere along here traders are going to look for an entry point to go 'all in', but I think the bottom of the bottom will be hard to pick. I am not all that excited about trading intermediate swings at this point. I think your trend is lacking volume. That speaks to the segment of the funds-holding population that is actually trading. There is a lot sitting on the sidelines. It is a low information market. edit: uninterestingly enough there is almost the same amount of volume between $136 down to $65.50 as there was from $65.50 back up to $148.70 Perhaps this is true, but it doesnt speak to the trend. The trend consists of the people actually buying and selling, and there doesnt seem to be many compared to April. I think the clear 'trend' will be showen after the breaking out of this consolidation range/triangle and you will certainly see the volume then.

So is anyone excited about HTML5 endorsing Bitcoin?

Ever since the beginning of this year, ~$100/BTC has "felt" like a fair price to me, FWIW.
Me too. Feels exactly like it did during the period of time my friends coined as '$5 forever'.... It was during this time that I bought all of my friends BTC....

I just saw this post, but I want to point out that this strategy doesn't necessarily mean that the player wanted the afk player to make the money. If first was a larger prize than second and you were continually folding your hands and giving him chips, he is able to sustain that dynamic by folding to the afk player. He is able to continue collecting your chips virtually guaranteeing him first place.
I would say this is more likely than the possibility that he was blatantly cheating and wanted his friend or confederate to win.
The first prize was larger than the second prize and I do understand that beating an afk is easier than beating a real player, but at the time he has 10k chips or something and both the afk and I were getting forced all in by the 150 blinds. He was going to win first either way.

PSA
Dont play with MrRoll.
Since there were 3 players remaining in the 2.5K and the top 2 got paid, I folded most of my hands knowing I hand more money than the afk at our table.
MrRoll took our blinds for 15 minutes or so before folding to the afk when he was forced all in. I dont know why MrRoll wanted the afk player to be payed. Perhaps the afk payed him? Perhaps the afk was his account?
He clearly acted against self interest in favor of an afk, is this collusion or something else?
We will investigate. Have there been any findings?
