just bought one from jagoo. about to redeem, but i notice the exchange rate being used is 137.31, while i show bitstamp at 116. just to double check, what i see on your site is bitstamps price plus giftcoins cut, right? meaning i won't redeem my $15 giftcard and see not just a higher exchange rate, but another fee too?
got impatient and redeemed it - "redeemed value" was $14, not 15 listed on the card. that plus the higher exchange rate hurts a little.
still - very easy way to buy coin, particularly with a credit card. (or debit in my case.) in fact, the card i used was my paypal debit. so this actually alloweds one ot go from paypal to btc, if you have the paypal card.
dang.. so i think i read this right so for $17.99 out of your paypal, they credited you with only $14.. not $15 which, when bitstamp was $116 giftcard was $137.71 giving you: 0.101BTC for $17.99 ((1btc/$137.31)*14) where you could have got: 0.129.3BTC if you had $15 in bitstamp where you could have got: 0.155.3BTC if you had $17.99 in bitstamp 29-55% difference...... ouch even worse is that none of their valuations match anything close to the amounts it costs the user, the value available to be redeemed or the bitcoin they will end up with. and on top of that they don't send you a physical card.. just a free email with a code.(i would have expected 20-50% variance with manufacturing/delivery costs of a physical card included, but not for a email code) if this is the true end result then giftcards are truly not a great service. infact i feel sorry for ya. give me your bitcoin address and purely because of this 29-50% profit grab giftcard have ripped you off with, ill send you 0.055 to get you to where giftcard should have if they had a proper business model. yea, that matches what i recall of the math at the time. address pm'd. - i really should add it to my sig. |

Given the nature of Bitcoin I am astonished that 133.7 is not value more people buy or sell on.
Maybe they are waiting for 1337 - who knows?
Or 107?  i'm not sure which made me groan more - this joke, or that i understood it. |

...uh... wait... nevermind. bring on the usb sticks!
No guarantee that the USB stick auctions will be cheaper.  If anything, they might be super popular not just because of the ability to run them everywhere and ASICMINER's track record of instant shipping. Plus they're just so darned cute!  i'm inclined to agree. this "bid" was ...sadly... my entire bitcoin stockpile... hence why i want more hash power! |

So, if i understand correctly, half of you are saying it's completely okay to incorporate in the US with pseudonymous and not undersigned entities listed as Founding Members? And handwave it "oh, they are just honorary"?
no idea in the slightest if it's ok or not. for me, i was simply saying this is what they DID. |

the cheapest right now is the alreayd mentioned "diy miner" using avalon chips and assembled by burnin.
however, ASICminer should shortly be auctioning it's so called "honeybee" miners - single asic chips ready to plug in to a USB slot and mine at about 300mhash. the pricing is up in the air though, for now.
i can see some really cool honey bee colony setups now... oh, agreed. thinking about this makes me want to shop for usb hubs... notthat i could afford a bunch right now... but still! also, i should point out to the OP that another auction of "block erupter" blades from ASICminer has begun. these are 10 gigahash units, price to be set by the auction. last batch went for 75 btc each, and were delivered in 4 days. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=189248 |

So someone should read this message and go set it up right now.
I think I'll do just that... I'll work on my credibility, but will be open to suggestions on acquiring the trust required. I'm fairly open about my real-life identity, and I would seek the advice of the existing pass-through operators both in forming the contract and in the continuous operation of the split-PT. I would also put at least some of my PT shares up for such a project. .b i'd be happy to help, though my "trust level" isn't terribly high either, i suppose... never had a problem, just not done much beyond buy some steam games and ...uh... 1 asicminer share... *cough* well, technically, 6... i bout 5 at IPO but sold them shortly before the glbse collapse. recently bought another from ineedausername. |

i read most of the posts in the thread about the founding of the foundation. it was clearly, unquestionably, without any shadow of a doubt, stated therein that they had no actual interaction with satoshi, that the seat is utterly honorary as a result, and that, if he does "return" and prove his/her/their identity using the email/pgp key or what have you, he could thus claim his seat on the foundation's board.
you think he actually showed up somewhere and signed a document? man, that... that's rich.

if you'd like to talk to the "little guy" as it were as well as bigger miners, i'm available. from roughly summer 2011 to spring 2012 i had a mere 40 mhash on my nvidia card in my gaming pc... last year i bought a single amd card, so i'm up to a whopping 330 mhash.... sigh.

While it sounds interesting in principle I wonder if this does not lead to a inflation of managers and managerial spending.
But if the alternative is having to stop deployment, due to nearing 50%....? because AM is starting to sell hardware, i can't see how the whole 50% thing will ever be an issue. we establish the goal of whatever percent we want to hold, then sell hardware... hashrate goes up, we deploy more. simple. heck, it's effectively what i want to have in my own control... (a much, much smaller percentage then AM though...) |

anyone else seeing the error message about mysql server failure using deepceleron's exe?
if so, anyone got a clue when it'll be sorted?
if not, uh... help?
All of http://bitcoincharts.com is currently down (the source of Sierrachartfeed data), replaced only with "Our MySQL server started to fail this night. We're migrating to postgres now, but this will take some time." This is a first in two years. This may also create a gap in history if they don't have a separate grabber, so anybody else that has some alternate mtgox API logging, KEEP IT GOING so that bitcoincharts can resurrect any missing data! eww... |

absolutely overjoyed at this news, both the hasrate, but more so the USBs, since my personal hashrate would be doubled with a single usb stick...

No update yesterday?
The hashrates are climbing quickly as we speak here - it's 7,705.90 GH/s currently. Friedcat is indeed adding in new hashrates fast!  I'll take that over an update any day. Yeah - official update page: https://www.btcguild.com//index.php?page=rankings We're seeing an 200~GH/s increase PER DAY since a couple days ago. correct me if my math is wrong here. that's what, 20 blades onlining daily? |

just to double check - the 80 euro is estimated cost for the pcb and other bits + assembly labor, but NOT including the chips, correct?
thus, the theoretical price for a complete ten chip unit (780 btc / 10000 = 0.078 btc per chip) would be 80 euro plus about .78 btc for the chips, correct?
not bad... not bad at all.
