1) When the eco-system can disrupt areas where content creators will get paid better.
Can you elaborate on this one .... not sure what you mean? So think about it, to accept money from someone and to send it to someone else, which is what content sites do. They are middle men, so any site that is a middle man like that, rack up a lot of fees. Bitcoin can come in their make it so content creators get more, cause our payments don't have these huge fees, we don't have to worry about chargebacks, which is something most companies like that have to actually budget it in. I am close to releasing a site like this, so it hard without examples but hopefully I answered your question. |

Of the current proposed projects such as the Ultimate Blockchain Compression, Freicoin, Cvtokens, Protocol Layer Built On-Top of Bitcoin Or applications Klondike firmware, Colored Coins etc Which project if any of the above mentioned but not exclusive to those projects or applications do you find the most interesting and why  You can make notes on more than one if you find it useful or developing bitcoin I like seeing prototypes than just reading about proposals. But blockchain compression is always a good one, and hope someone figures it out. |

Have you ever played SatoshiDice?
No gambling, is a no win situation in my eyes. |

Back in the days of CPU mining what was your initial start difficulty when you joined bitcoin  I never did CPU mining cause I have a macbook and macs aren't design to handle that intense CPU power. So I never really mined, but I did try and develop a mining application as one of my first applications, and I never finished it actually. |

Now that you have seen BTC breach a 1 billion $ market cap and beyond and the multitude of services, businesses and eco-system spring to life, what are your expectations going forward for 2014, 2015 and beyond.
I feel the eco-system is still very small, but I feel it is over crowed in two areas, gambling and merchant processing. I think going forward we are going to see more bitcoin sites disrupting areas that are screwing content creators, I would go into more detail but that is where my next company is focusing so I rather not so stay tuned 2015 I will call it now $2 billion market cap. |

Back when bitcoin was starting, were faucets giving out tens of hundreds of coins?
Yes at one point Gavin (the lead developer of bitcoin and developed the first faucet) had a full balance of about ~15,000 Coins. People were able to get about 5 coins. Cause coins were worth very little at that time. I remember those days.. Oh god the agony. The great days! |

How did you find about Bitcoin?
-.-
I saw Gavin and Amir on TWIST (This week in startups) and I was looking for an easy way to handle payments for a site I was making. I research it and at that point I was into bitcoins, but I was more into that at some point it would make me rich. I thought of it as more of a savings. Then it hit $10 per coin, and I was like I need to put more time into then that is when I went extremely crazy with bitcoins, and was like I need earn more of these things. |

This is nice. Some questions, and test you could do, so if I have two wallets, one is in /wallet1/wallet.dat and /wallet2/wallet.dat (unix paths) what are the startup times? Do I have to add a -rescan command when i am switch between wallets or will this do it automatically? Or can you just add maybe a checkpoint to the wallet, so it knows the blockchain it was scanned up until and then just scan from there on?
Also a link to the pull request would be nice.

Ask me any bitcoin questions you have.
Things I will not answer is how many bitcoins, bitcoin related stock, or investments I have. But everything else is fair game so if you wanted to know about security, how to handle certain situations, even technical questions ask away.

I see my ignore button... you should see the number next to it. 41 plus ignores and counting!
If you are not getting ignores you are associating with scammers. I tell sketch people to f!@3 right off. If you fall into that category you can go ahead and hit the button too.
I rarely ignore people, I have two people on it and I haven't seen you do anything that warrants adding you to that list. That being said, having a yellow ignore button is usually a bad thing. And I must say that while, I don't always phrase myself very delicately and have an opinion which is not mainstream most of time, I still have a clear ignore button (PS: How do you see how many people ignored you? I can just see the colour by logging out). Being ignored usually comes from being completely clueless in an annoying way or having a total lack of respect for others. At least that's how I use it. Anyway, good luck If you have a color on your ignore then it tells you how many established members ignore you. Most people use the ignore button as a political movement, cause I said something about the foundation which happened to be true, and I woke up to a lot of ignores. I then said something about how micro-transactions aren't spam, and I woke up to more ignores. So the ignore button is very much a political button than anything else. In sublime case he is just insane, I even have him ignored with one other person. I usually speak my mind about these things as well and I have no ignores. Talking about it like this may end it  but I'm afraid is is very much to do with how you say things. Even if you don't phrase things delicately (like I do sometimes) you can still be very respectful. This is only speculation however and I can be completely wrong. No it is a political thing, 100% sure I know who was behind it, but I am not going to whine about my ignores. Cause in fact I use them as a badge to show I was not afraid to talk about the horrible things the almighty foundation does, and how core dev team is not able to fix the blockchain so they change the protocol to make them look better. I want people to see, I was to be silenced and I still talk about those things. |

I showed you evidence you dismissed, I can't help you if your not going to accept my evidence. Aside from hacking that is the best evidence right from the person, who created the site.
There was no evidence in that excerpt that you supplied for reasons that I have already stated and you have failed to rebuff. The fact that you're still citing it as evidence is amusing actually. You didn't rebuff anything you just said it... Actually it discusses how there's no Escrow at this point in time and users would have to have mutual trust until such a service could be implemented, tested then released.
In fact it goes through how testing is the main factor holding the project from launching right now.
Which has nothing to do with the security of the site, but with features. So you are wrong. Good Day sir. And keep on trolling someone else *Can't Troll a Troll* |

So basically I can't make you believe it, then that is all I need to know. I am sticking with that it is insecure, who even cares the site may not even be up.
No, the reason you can't make me believe it is because what you've stated isn't correct. Find me some evidence to back up your claim and I would be willing to side with you. What street cred? I don't care what anyone on this forum thinks.
So you don't care what your largest potential client base has to think about you, your conduct or your programming skills? That's a great professional attitude to have, should add it to your donation and project webpages 'I don't care what you think'. What a motto. I showed you evidence you dismissed, I can't help you if your not going to accept my evidence. Aside from hacking that is the best evidence right from the person, who created the site. Exactly I don't care what anyone has to say. |

I have proven that it is insecure what do you want me to do break into their servers? That is illegal and I am not doing that, so it isn't false claims it is just that you don't believe the facts I shown, that is ok.
All you've done is show how they're testing their escrow service and until it's been released users will have to depend on peer trust. You haven't actually shown how the site is insecure. And no, I'm not asking you to break the law, what I am asking you to do is either come up with evidence or retract your false statements. By the way, this discussion isn't doing the best for your street cred So basically I can't make you believe it, then that is all I need to know. I am sticking with that it is insecure, who even cares the site may not even be up. What street cred? I don't care what anyone on this forum thinks. |

No I just think it is funny, you actually read this entire thread, but whatever, I guess I have too many things going on to care. Just move your mouse to the ignore button and click it Also I don't care about my professional service, I actually code cause I love it, not cause I need too. I am a millionaire because of bitcoins and could care less, I do it cause I like it.  So you actually find it funny that I did research into an area where you did none and call you out for a false remark? Wow, you must have a pretty great sense of humour. And it's great that you don't really see your programming as a professional avenue, as stuff like lying and spreading false rumours is usually looked down upon and has a habit of negatively impacting a business. But it's good to know that you have an ample supply of Bitcoins left over so such an impact would leave you completely unscathed, even if this news were to spread around. But still though, you're still posting and it's great to see that you care so much about sticking to your false claims I have proven that it is insecure what do you want me to do break into their servers? That is illegal and I am not doing that, so it isn't false claims it is just that you don't believe the facts I shown, that is ok. |

LMAO and I care what you think because? I just told you my reason and you didn't think it was good enough so that isn't my problem that is your problem. The rest of the people in this thread agreed and I could care less about what some newbie thinks, go run along.
Two others said they didn't have any interest, with the rest in support or offering ideas to improve to this project, so that's another thing you're blatantly lying about In fact more users were calling you a troll than who actually agreed with you, just saying And the fact that you're still replying shows you still care, not to mention that this is all being stored in the forum for others to see your false claims and your behaviour. Needless to say this would all look great if someone was seeking your (not so) professional services. No I just think it is funny, you actually read this entire thread, but whatever, I guess I have too many things going on to care. Just move your mouse to the ignore button and click it Also I don't care about my professional service, I actually code cause I love it, not cause I need too. I am a millionaire because of bitcoins and could care less, I do it cause I like it. |

need to install the youtube bbcode plugin imo. Yeah cause java exploits weren't bad enough lets just introduce flash exploits as well. you really think so? even with both connections over ssl? are you the owner of http://github/greedi/As long as you're behind 7 proxies, you should be fine. What does connections over ssl? I mean flash exploits that can drop a payload, and take your wallet and send it to someone else. you're not very familiar with youtube bbcode plugin are you? Just think embedding any flash is bad, even youtube. |
