BitsPoker uses Node.js.

I'm hoping it will be like Bitshop where you can just upload stuff to a folder and customise all the limits and of course make the downloads unlimited too.

Unfortunately I don't think we will be offering any hosting as of now, besides the actual accounts. This is more of a paypal that accepts only coins. Similar to current bitcoin checkouts with timed payment windows and confirmations, all that but for more coins...

You should support Inputs for BTC so people don't have to wait for confirmations and there's no double spend risk!

The thing is currently you are just adding a <a> and <img>. The ad format will have to be changed to JS.

Also, what fee do you charge right now?

Edit: Deposited 0.001 BTC via Inputs, it's not showing up. Your server did respond with *OK* through.

Does the API send it in BTC value? I just presumed it sent it in satoshis. If so that could be the error and I will fix it.

ATM it's a 10% fee.

The amount is in BTC.

Node.js is also used by MtGox, Google and of course CoinChat.

You would get banned if you went to newbies section and make a thread "send your bitcoins here [address], I will pay back double!". Then with your logic you could say, umm, "never said when I will pay back". Or something else that's clearly scamming or atleast very shady and untrustworthy stuff. Do we agree?

This is a red herring. I never did anything remotely similar to that.

The closet would be "Add trust for [address], I will send you 1 Ripple BTC". I do not profit in any way.

Also take a look at this thread, this is where the OP actually profits:

You very well knew there were bitstamp/snapswap backed ripple-BTCs around and they would lose them by trusting you.

That is correct, just as how when someone announces a new security vulnerability in SSL for example (http://breachattack.com/) they very well knew that it will lead to innocent people being MITM attacked. Eventually site owners will fix and new SSL versions will fix the vulnerability, same thing here - it's better for people to learn about why Ripple's debt model is flawed now rather than later.

Well, even if you did make it clear it's a BTC debt issued by you, you still mislead people to think they would get something. They thought you would honor your debts which you don't do.

Long time members of this community are not supposed to mislead newbies, it's just wrong. You would get banned if you went to newbies section and make a thread "send your bitcoins here [address], I will pay back double!". Then with your logic you could say, umm, "never said when I will pay back". Or something else that's clearly scamming or atleast very shady and untrustworthy stuff. Do we agree?

You very well knew there were bitstamp/snapswap backed ripple-BTCs around and they would lose them by trusting you. They didn't/don't understand the Ripple system enough to know what trusting someone actually means. You lured them to this trap that can be read as untrustworthy behaviour at least.

If I buy an apple and say I'll pay 0.05 BTC for it, and give them a piece of paper saying 0.05 BTC for it, I am a scammer. If I do a bet, I'm a scammer.

If I go "Free BTC!" and post a picture of a Bitcoin, I am not a scammer. If I give them a worthless Ripple BTC, I'm not a scammer.

Which part of this do you have problems comprehending?

Yes, Teppy.
1849  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: How did this double spend happen? on: August 07, 2013, 09:16:38 AM
I guess I'll just wait.

There should be a mechanism to signal to the network that an unconfirmed transaction should be removed from the confirmation queue...

It doesn't need to. The second doublespending transaction a client hears about is automatically discarded.

Avalon has helped us (Fenix) reroute two Batch #2s ASICs after the BAKEWELL scam. We had to do quite a bit of follow up to get a response through, but got a high priority order at the end.

I could write a piece of paper with "1 BTC" on it and it would have the same value.

That'd have significantly more value for the paper it was wrote on.

Total of 11 BC sent. Thank you.

You need to follow the steps before I can send you the BTC.

Sent a bunch of BTCs.

Just a few quotes by you from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=206948.0

Too bad I can't see the original first post because it's been edited and the topic is self moderated.

You mislead them purposely to think they would get something else than a DEBT issued by you.

1 free Ripple BTC giveaway - just post address!

This is in the title. It is impossible to not read it before go to the topic.
1853  Economy / Services / Re: 0.4 BTC / month free (Best payouts - NO POSTING NEEDED & Updated :) on: August 07, 2013, 09:00:08 AM
I still haven't received payment, no lie. The last transaction on my wallet was an outgoing payment of mine.
Please link me to your last post in this thread.

Well, I don't really have too many posts here other than the one where I initially added the ads to my sig: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=198934.60
And I haven't removed them since.

Paid

Payment Received. Thanks!  Smiley
Still have one of those "gen 1" ads, I see Smiley

Person A gives a loan to person B.
Person B gives a loan to person C.
Person C scams person B and doesn't pay the loan back.
Person B tells person A he won't pay back to person A because person C didn't pay person B back.

Is that how you do things in real life?
Nope, person B still has to pay back to person A even when person C scammed person B. If he doesn't person B is a scammer too.

No. I already paid "person A" with BTC on Ripple. I've clearly advertised my threads as Ripple Bitcoins, Bitcoins on Ripple, etc.

They are debt, but they have no terms and cannot be redeemed. They're also sent for free.

This is equivalent to selling something like.. Pirate BTC and the buyer complaining when they can't redeem.
1855  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: TradeFortress VERY untrustworthy, owes me 10.15 BTC, possibly others. on: August 07, 2013, 08:48:33 AM
Trust in ripple means that you're willing to loan them that amount of funds. Trust in ripple doesn't equal to being friends.

But that's pointless as it is a contractless loan, or more accurately a gift. I'm loaning them a perpetual loan with no repayment date.

This is why trust and debt in Ripple are meaningless - there are no terms whatsoever. In fact Ripple makes no distinction of BTC, USD, EUR other than the 3 letters, and people will claim that they mean ByTeCoin instead of Bitcoin, etc.
1856  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: TradeFortress VERY untrustworthy, owes me 10.15 BTC, possibly others. on: August 07, 2013, 08:44:31 AM
So these people trusted you and you chose to trust someone too. The thing is, they trust you and you only, not the people you've chosen to trust.

This means you're the scammer if you don't pay your debts. If you loan money to someone and they don't pay you.. It doesn't give you the right to deny payback of debt to people who borrowed from you. You can't "transfer" loan. Do we agree?

No. If you friend someone on Facebook you don't go to jail if you are not buddies with them.

Trusting someone is not a binding contract, it does not mean anything. It is not scamming if you trust someone that you don't trust.
1857  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: TradeFortress VERY untrustworthy, owes me 10.15 BTC, possibly others. on: August 07, 2013, 08:40:41 AM
The simple fact is that I did actions that enabled other unrelated people to take BTC using a flaw in Ripple. It is ripple's fault for having that debt model.
1858  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: TradeFortress VERY untrustworthy, owes me 10.15 BTC, possibly others. on: August 07, 2013, 08:39:46 AM
How is that relevant?

Just answer my question, please.

I trust anyone that asks for trust on Ripple. Are you going to say this is an "abuse"? Whatever.
1859  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: TradeFortress VERY untrustworthy, owes me 10.15 BTC, possibly others. on: August 07, 2013, 08:37:17 AM
Okay, so you trust all these "TRUSTED PARTIES". Then what happens if, say, Bitstamp ups and runs? (not that they will)
You lose your money, which is not a question of if but rather when because Bitstamp is not complying with US fiat AML/KYC regulations, and eventually will be seized even if they're offshore.

Did you actually trust someone in ripple that took the bitcoins that were trusted to you?

What is your point? Are you friends with all your friends on Facebook and do you follow all your Twitter followers around in real life? Have you thrown your friends into circles when you added them to a circle on Google+?
