The reason is that due to Dwolla having a tendency to lock funds at will
This is not what has been happening and is not what happened here. Can you name one instance where Dwolla has locked funds? [* If you are thinking of the "30-day probation" restriction as being a case of "locked funds", that's incorrect, and see below for that.] Yes. Locked would be a rather light term for what they did to Tradehill. The danger (as percieved by MTGOX) is that Dwolla will do some kind of freezing/locking/taking of funds that mtgox holds on the Dwolla side. As far as we know Dwolla never returned said funds to Tradehill. http://betabeat.com/2012/03/dwolla-was-just-sued-by-bitcoiners-for-2-m/ |

A great thanks to Pratyeka.  And I'll probably donate less to wikipedia this year... I stopped donating when they started deleting. They have deleted a huge amount of interesting material since the rise of deletionism at Wikipedia. |

This is what the plaintiffs are asking for: 1) for the return of all monies in the accounts of Plaintiffs;
2) for all other general, special, incidental and consequential damages;
3) for attorney's fees, as alleged int the causes of action above;
4) for exemplary and punitive damages, as alleged int the causes of action above;
5) for prejudgment and post-judgement interest to the full extend permitted by law;
6) for costs of suit incurred by Plaintiffs herein; and
7) for such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper So basically 100% reimbursement + reimbursement of all legal costs + interest + damages + other relief Since the plaintiffs represent only 4 out of the approx. 5000 Customers. How will this affect the other claimants if they are successful? Basically, if you're not one of these 4, and you haven't already gotten something back, then you're not going to get anything back, ever. The good news is that this is closure for everyone else waiting around for their bitcoins/USD. I disagree. This lawsuit might suck up all of the US assets but if people in other countries file as well they might see something. |

I have 0.00001 bitcoins in my wallet. This wallet has 10,000 transactions in it from playing satoshiDice. (playing has not been good for me, I'm down 30 bitcoins). I would like to delete the wallet and start with a new one.
When I try to spend the 0.00001 bitcoins the client asks for 0.031 fee, so I can't spend them. I tried putting 10 bitcoins in the wallet and spending the whole amount but it still asks for the 0.031 fee. If I subtract 0.031 from the total, spending 9.96901 then the fee reduces to 0.0005 bitcoins and I am left with 0.0305 bitcoins that I still can't spend without a 0.031 fee. Thus I can't spend all the bitcoins.
0.00001 isn't worth worrying about but it just feels wrong destroy them. I'd rather give them to a miner.
Are these bitcoins unspendable? How do I spend and/or give them away?
Is there a way for me to set the fee larger so that I can spend them. I'm running the linux 0.6.3 bitcoin-qt client which doesn't have a preferences menu like my Mac client does.
Let it die. You are talking of a very small fraction of a penny. |

Only 5 of the 10 people you owe have agreed to be part of the small claim. That means 5 people are willing to wait or don't care if they get paid back. Of those remaining five you should offer to make some form of payment now. You have 2k in your saving account now. Again, if you are so sure you are going to get money from your summer job in August then you can pay yourself back.
But then the summer job money would have to go to you guys.. I currently have less than 2k bc a relative borrowed money but that money is guarnteed back. That is also my own personal business. I can make a good dent into the amount owed if you guys wait until the end of august. I will pay out possibly 2k. But only to people that I owe $190 or more to as all other amount are pretty low and this will cut into the amount owed pretty well Are you saying that because I am at less then $190 I am not going to be paid? I'm not sure yet its either I pay the good faith with everyone included or inly high amounts. I am going to pay you but it helps to cut down the larger debt if I pay them first If you pay off the people with smaller debts first it gets them off your list and it is much easier....... I am not saying you should pay anyone first, I think you should pay proportionally. |

I have received my payment or item from spendbitcoins within 48 hours except a physical gift card that took longer though I am sure they mailed it out within 48 hours as well.

What happened Jeremy? Your service used to be solid as a rock; you could set your watch by it. Now it’s spotty at best. I hope you get back to the "old service" soon. I trust your honesty and decency but the service has changed.
Ouch, that hurts. Basically I've become too busy for just me to take care of orders and customer service as well as everything else and need to hire ASAP but have been too drowned in orders and answering emails and dealing with PayPal and Amazon etc to have time to hire. A hire is very close though (I believe) so hopefully that will put things back on track. Still don't know about Amazon and PayPal though. Good luck and hope you get somebody soon. Please bring back ebay (not through paypal) if possible. I really liked that option. |

For a company that tries to position itself as a "Trusted Bitcoin Platform", I find these facts disturbing:
- Anyone can reset anyone else's password by knowing their user name
- The "change password" form only has one field for "New Password" instead of two, allowing for user error.
They have two-factor authentication (using SMS text messaging). I asked for this, they said it is not available currently though soon it should be. Does anyone have this working? |

Gun laws won't stop this. Calming the foaming at the mouth on American talk radio would. I am not advocating any censorship other then self. People should exercise common sense on that they say. They probably wont. That is the price we pay to have an open society. |

I am not commenting on the usefulness of the instruments, just the terminology. They are not bonds. Calling them such makes them sound much safer then they really are.
What should we call them? I am not really excited about using EskimoBob's current terminology and it is quite offensive. I think calling them perpetual mining contracts would probably be the most appropriate. +1 Contract makes sense. |

The OP is completely nonsensical.
Buying mining equipment has two components - choosing and operating hardware, and speculating on the future of price/difficulty ratio.
Having these two components as a bundle is inefficient.
Mining bonds allow each component to be carried out most efficiently - one side buys bonds thus investing in the concept of mining profitability without having to physically operate hardware, and the other side uses the money to buy equipment without taking speculative risk.
The OP is right. You are making the mistake that he pointed out. It looks like he has facts on his side. These instruments may be efficient (for the seller??) but that does not make them BONDS. A bond has a specific meaning, and no matter how many times it is used wrong, that does not make it right. I am not commenting on the usefulness of the instruments, just the terminology. They are not bonds. Calling them such makes them sound much safer then they really are. |
