Do the bitcoin atms take & dispense paper money?
I might have to make a trip into vancouver sometime if they do.

Yeah. There's a few different ATMs, so some may only accept cards or whatnot, but there's definitely ones that accept fiat. Not sure about ones that dispense fiat.

Will we ever be able to buy and sell bitcoin easily?

We have to wait for more Bitcoin ATMs, you cannot build Rome in one day

I'm really looking forward to see where these pop up in the Uk next year.
19803  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Buying bitcoin is a pain. on: December 04, 2013, 11:04:58 PM
If I want to buy some bitcoin I have to get verified first and link a bank account. It is @#%^ing ridiculous.
If I ever buy bitcoin it will have to be in-person with someone who has them. Selling is the same deal.

Will we ever be able to buy and sell bitcoin easily?

You can buy and sell on the forums easily. People will take bank transfer. Just remember to use a trusted escrow.

I like that you can tell people BTC is worth more than gold. Gives cryptoplebs an idea of its worth.

To be trendy and be doing something your competitors are not

lol, I suppose Bitcoin is pretty Hipster/underground. They wont like it when it breaks through to the mainstream.

I guess something got lost in translation. You could "counterfeit" paperwallets I suppose, or more specifically commit fraud/deception with them.
19807  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons a business should accept bitcoin on: December 04, 2013, 10:38:03 PM
What Beet said, plus the value is likely to keep growing steady along with the market growth. Also no charegback issues.

Also Ebay/paypal are notorious for favoring the buyer.  So be ware.

Yeah, I'm all too aware of this. It's ridiculous. I don't really sell on ebay any more because of this and their rapebastard fees. Just gonna try sell shit for coins on here.
19810  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Selling Paperwallets and Mining Equipment on Ebay to Intl buyers on: December 04, 2013, 10:13:38 PM
Couldn't the fraudulent buyer not just claim there was nothing in the letter you sent him? How can you cover against this? Will ebay and paypal accept info from the blockchain?
19811  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Suspended from ebay on: December 04, 2013, 10:10:20 PM
Yeah, paypal thinks cryptocurrency is a threat to it's way of business, so it tries to discourage/discredit them.

Of course, they have reason to be think this...  Grin

They can embrace it and make money; or shun it and lose out. It's obvious peeps want to buy coins with PP, so why not let them? Cryptos are gonna destroy paypal anyway.

19812  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Suspended from ebay on: December 04, 2013, 09:50:08 PM
Why are they still letting sellers list them continually if it's against their T&Cs? Ebay and paypal are such a bunch of plebs. If they had any fucking clue they would set up their own marketplace/escrow system for selling cryptos.

19813  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Watch the tracking of the sheep marketplace thief in real time on: December 04, 2013, 09:43:37 PM
I think his best hope of escape would be to just forget about cashing it in and to just distribute it randomly.

Or give it back?
19814  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: biggest threat to bitcoin? on: December 04, 2013, 09:41:55 PM
I don't think any of them are currently threats. Just look at the price jump between BTC and LTC.
19815  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Watch the tracking of the sheep marketplace thief in real time on: December 04, 2013, 09:36:03 PM
So 96,000 bitcoins were sent out before the site realized anything was wrong?

Seems like that would be a lot of volume and suspicious right?

i think i read something like the thief made the bitcoins appear to be in the wallets somehow, but you just couldn't withdraw.. and that lasted for about a week. by the time the weekend came around, people began to get a little suspicious and they figured out that the money was taken from them.

Yeah, very clever:

Quote
Here's what happened: someone (or some group) managed to fake the balances in peoples’ accounts on the site, showing that they had their bitcoins in their wallets when they’d actually been transferred out. Over the course of a week the whole site was drained, until the weekend when the site's administrators realised what was happening and shut everything down.

Interesting. Are the programs streamed through your internet connection?

No, just the decryption keys

Ah, sweet. Do the keys - or the boxes - ever get blocked or whatnot?
19817  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lets talk about Bitcoin - Sick of the Media Portrayal on: December 04, 2013, 09:19:14 PM
I have a feeling that the long the media dismiss bitcoin the better it will be for bitcoin long term.

You're probably right, and that buys me some more time to get my hands on more mwhahahaha  Grin
19818  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: Selling Bitcoins for Paypal on: December 04, 2013, 09:16:19 PM
Or report you for doing this then you'll be fucked when they freeze your paypal account and close your ebay.
19819  Other / Off-topic / Re: My next door neighbour continually smokes weed every 2-3 hours in his garden... on: December 04, 2013, 09:12:40 PM
And it's doing my fucking head in. I have nothing against weed and am in fact pro-drugs, but this shit fucking reeks and often makes me feel sick. It's complete schwag weed and he continually coughs his guts up pretty much every-time he smokes it from 6 in the morning to midnight. He coughs so violently that I've heard him puke several times. My windows are always shut yet it still gets in and smells vile. What do I do? If I ask him to stop doing it, I doubt he will. Do I threaten him with the police if he refuses? I don't want to do that, but this shit is making me feel physically sick, especially when he barfs. He lives with his grandad who has hated me since I was a child. He even attacked me on one occasion for no reason what-so-ever. I don't mind his grandson smoking it as long as I can't smell it or hear him. He also has a 1-2-year-old girl and often leaves her in the house whilst he goes outside to smoke. I can hear her crying and screaming whilst he's outside. He's a stupid skinny degenerate thieving Jeremy Kyle reject chav. I also believe I could kick the living shit out of him if it came to it, but I'm a pacifist and will only fight if I'm attacked and there's no other options.

And who the fuck actually gets addicted to weed? I mean seriously.

Wut do? Please advise.
i also believe I could kick the living shit out of him,pacifists r us,fucktard!

"pacifists r us,fucktard!" lolwut? Did you read what I said? You really need to do some reading on pacifism and the different schools of thought. Pacifism is not letting somebody attack you then letting them kick the shit out of you and not fighting back.

"Some pacifists follow principles of nonviolence, believing that nonviolent action is morally superior and/or nonpragmatically most effective. Some pacifists, however, support physical violence for emergency defence of self or others."

That would be me.
