Thanks to everyone that signed up!

Please keep in mind that not everyone who fills in the form will be selected. I apologize if this was not originally clear, and I just updated the post so that future readers don't get confused.

I'll send you an email in a couple hours if you match the criteria I'm looking for.


Ha, thanks! We did work very hard on it so I'm glad it shows.  

Everyone does qualify, but if we get a lot of sign ups, we'll prioritize based on the responses that most closely match what we are looking for.


We're not doing this to harvest addresses, we just want to get feedback from Bitcoin users. I just sent you a PM with a link to the website. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Those questions are used to filter for the types of participants we're looking for

Hey everyone!

I’m looking for people to participate in a short usability test for a Bitcoin website I’m working on.

Each session will last 15-20 minutes. For the first part, I’ll ask you some Bitcoin related questions. For the second part, I’ll ask you to share your screen with me so that I can watch you try our website.

If you participate, I’ll send you 0.015 BTC.

Please fill out this form if you are interested. If you match the criteria I'm looking for, I’ll send you more details.

Thanks,

Paul

Update Jan 7th
Updated post to make it clear that not everybody who fills out the form will be selected.

Update Jan 14th
Since Bitcoin isn't doing too well right now, increased the reward a little bit. This is only temporary.

Update Jan 14th
All of the interview slots for this week's session have been filled up. You can still fill in the form to get on the list, but I won't be selecting any new participants until a few weeks from now. Thanks to everyone that participated so far!

Hey TinEye and Small!

I just sent both of you 5000 bits. I'd love to hear what you both think of Backslash!

Happy holidays!

Please add Ultracoin!

Let's keep /r/official_utc alive! It's a great way to have multithreaded discussions, there's already a fair bit of decent conversation.

A lot of people have been saying that they like having everything on a single thread, and even though it's a great solution for the select few of us that read every post, it doesn't work for most people that are casually interested. It's way too easy to miss posts, announcements, contests, etc... and conversations often die because they get mixed up in others.

If you don't believe it will work, at least give it a try for 1 week. Let's all post questions, interesting pages, and comment. Who knows, maybe if we force the conversation a bit we'll start driving some unexpected growth. At this point, what do we have to lose?

And @Bumface, please clarify your post in /r/official_utc, I'm really happy that you gave us all an update, but it's extremely misleading for anyone who hasn't experience the daunting hash rates of scrypt-jane coins. This has been pointed out by many members, and it takes 5 seconds to fix. Thanks!

[edit] If you are interested in keeping track of metrics, as of right now we have 55 subscribers, and we're the 43,743th most popular reddit!

What are people's thoughts on on creating a official/unofficial blog?

That way we have a central place to keep track of major announcements and updates.It's too difficult to keep track of all the major stuff that's been going on by reading every post.

Examples of posts that could have been useful in the past:

• Major new exchanges
• Coin software updates & patches
• Update on metrics every time the n-factor changes
• Coordinating voting efforts
• Announcing contests
• Crypto-trade was hacked!

One of the reasons DGC picked up is because of it's ridiculous community. Let's all make it a habit to visit /r/official_utc daily to add at least one interesting question, article or comment so that we can get some conversation and community building going.

Hey,

I'm selling a bunch of GPUs through this post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=486159.msg5354722#msg5354722

Right now one person wants to buy ten, and would like to purchase using a BTC escrow. Can anyone help out? The total is 3700$

Thanks!

We need an escrow, is anyone interested?

The 40 HD 7950s finally arrived a couple days ago, and I have 19 ready to ship. Here is a link to the exact model: http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/?cid=1&gid=3&sgid=1157&pid=1841&psn=&lid=1&leg=0

I sold a 25 a couple of weeks ago, and since the demand was so high, I decided to get some more and help everyone get mining rigs. These are my favorite cards to mine with but they are practically impossible to find, especially in the united states.

Details

• Brand new, in box, factory sealed
• Under original manufacturer's warranty
• Stable 630Khash/s
• Low power consumption of < 250W

Price

These are currently going for around $350 used and around $450 if you want to get them on Amazon or Newegg. This is an amazing deal, and you can get them really, really fast.

• 1-4 Single HD 7950 is $400 each($20 cheaper than Newegg)
• 5+ HD 7950 is $380 each($40 cheaper than Newegg!!! & no limit per person)

Payment

I'm pretty chill with the method of payment we use, but here are the option in order of preference:

• Cash for goods, only for local pickup
• BTC 40% before shipment, 60% after proof of shipment
• Paypal 40% before shipment, 60% after proof of shipment
• BTC using escrow
• More than happy to talk about other methods....

Shipping

• Cards are in my possession and are ready to ship
• Shipping will be handled on a case by case basis.
• Local pickup in SF/South Bay in California is ideal.
• Happy to ship internationally.

Background check

I've sold a bunch of stuff on these forums in the past couple months, and every transaction went well. Here are links to my previous sale of 25 of these cards:

• Bitcoin Talk review from @bitcoin101, 9 cards purchased
• Litecoin Talk review from @thenoodler, 15 cards purchased
• Past sale

Send me an email/pm if you are interested and we can talk about prices and shipping!

Definitely need a better ultra coin exchange!

How so?

I've had 3 rigs running for several months and I'm having no issues whatsoever.

It would be 400$ + shipping, which is around 60$ (happy to work with you to find better options) at the current BTC price, which amounts to around 0.64BTC

21/40 have been reserved:

• 10x through local cash for goods
• 1x through paypal
  
• 5x through local cash for goods
• 5x through paypal, shipping to Hong Kong

Yeah check out my quick tutorial: http://benigeri.com

Only this model for now.

And thanks a lot for the kind words, I'm glad everything worked out!

As mentioned previously, the transactions were not done through BTC.

9 cards were sold in cash, and the buyer is apparently going to write a review

15 of the cards were sold in two transactions through paypal

The last cards were sold on amazon.

If anyone still has any doubts, please email me, or Skype (paulbenigeri) and I would be more than happy to clarify any future concerns.
