I agree. These guys want to hold our Bitcoins, we want to hold their identities.
I think GLBSE should start enforcing minimum verification for levels of volume.
Unverified -- 0 to 0 BTC Email -- 0 to 10 BTC Phone -- 0 to 12 BTC Home Address -- 0 to 100 BTC Photo ID -- 0 to 500 BTC All of the Above -- Unlimited
Probably can't force these guys to give up their ID, so we must motivate them with tiers.
Sorry for going so off topic.

The script has been updated and confirmed working on both CentOS 6 + 5: [bitcoin@centos-dev ~]$ bash bit* [bitcoin-compile] Running initialization checks.. CentOS 5 detected.. static binary DISABLED.. DONE [bitcoin-compile] Boost: Found. [bitcoin-compile] OpenSSL: Found. [bitcoin-compile] Berkeley DB: Found. [bitcoin-compile] Bitcoind: Building.. DONE.. -rwxrwxr-x 1 bitcoin bitcoin 4.6M Aug 16 09:17 bitcoind [configure] would you like to configure your bitcoind now? (y/n) Same location, http://www.firenzee.com/bitcoin-centos.shI dont think I need to say this but DO NOT RUN THIS OR ANYTHING YOU GET ON THE INTERNET AS root.

Im on CentOS 5.7 and all I get is "FATAL: install glibc-static"... so I checked and it seems that there are only RPMs for CentOS 6 :/ Do you perhaps have an fix for this?
Same in CentOS 5.8. Yum does not know a package named glibc-static, rpmfind.net only knows it for CentOS 6 with version 2.12 compared to version 2.5 of regular glibc installed on 5.8. I was told it needed to work in CentOS 6... so it does.

I couldn't help myself... So I continued to work on it:
[bitcoin@bit-dev ~]$ ./bitcoin-centos.sh [bitcoin-compile] Running initialization checks.. DONE [bitcoin-compile] Boost: Found. [bitcoin-compile] OpenSSL: Found. [bitcoin-compile] Berkeley DB: Found. [bitcoin-compile] Bitcoind: Building.. DONE.. -rwxrwxr-x 1 bitcoin bitcoin 5.9M Aug 14 13:54 bitcoind [configure] would you like to configure your bitcoind now? (y/n) y bitcoind username [bitcoinrpc]: bitcoind password [password or random(default)]: bitcoind port [8332]: allowed ips [127.0.0.1]: do you want to download a snapshot of the blockchain via http? (y/n): y % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 10 2457M 10 245M 0 0 9755k 0 0:04:17 0:00:25 0:03:52 11.1M
It configures its self, downloads a snapshot from eu1.bitcoincharts.com and then it starts. Pretty much the 1 stop script for getting up and running on CentOS
Newest version is still the URL listed before.

this was an extremely interesting read. thank you

Ok, it's good enough. http://www.firenzee.com/bitcoin-centos.sh -- Script (signature: 76e11171314ba4450befdb348f37c43b bitcoin-centos.sh, size 7.5KB) http://www.firenzee.com/bitcoin-centos-static.gz (decompressed signature: 286a396a0bf0b3bfb51ed61c53a3446f bitcoin-centos-static, size 5.9MB) Notes & Features This was tested on a CentOS-6.3 Final machine and worked fine.. Please make sure you install gcc-c++ and the basic devel environment. The script has resume support, meaning if you get through 2 steps and the 3rd fails, you can fix that issue and not have to start from the beginning. makefile.new is no longer needed If you have crashing issues.. you might want to try disabling the default hardening features defined during compile. Enjoy and report critical bugs... Cordially yours the electronic rap ghost (james @ bitvps.com)

I honestly feel sorry for all the people that lost, and keep losing money because of this. I also feel very sorry for all the operators and the Bitcoin Consultancy, errors can have disastrous consequences, we're all humans, we all fuck up eventually.
I wish everyone that is impacted gets out of this with minimum suffering and stress.
This has been one of the most stressful situations with maximum suffering I have ever experienced. I am furious and I hope everyone involved putting us through this gets what's due to them. Karma is a bitch, you fucking wankers. As do I. Although I have no more then 1btc in Bitconica Its a real anguishing public shame to see what has happened and continued to happen. It also is really just encouragement for theft, perhaps if people didn't know BTC operations were so crappy people wouldn't put so much hard work into trying to rip others off. That said, I'm confused- how did they transfer 40K in USD out of MtGox? It seems like there are a limited number of places a Mt-GOX code could be accepted, and it seems like it would be easy for MtGox to reach out and put a hold on that money. I'm sure it wasn't auto-processed by their banks. BTW: I have had the hardest time in hell getting verified by GOX, mostly because I'm a traveler and they want your utility bills, which I never, personally pay. But after all thats happened, how is THEIR account verified and not mine? WTF?!?! Lol no shit.. ask Goat about getting verified with MtGox

You don't list which exact data centre you're using.
Also, a whois privacy will not inspire confidence, you might wanna remove that.
Cordially yours, James @ BitVPS
