FWIW, you could change the account name to something descriptive (like "dooglusbot"), then we can all easily identify it on the recent tab.

Is that only done through the API or is there a web interface for changing the display name?

You can do it with either.  The /account/rename API call will do it, and the red & white portrait icon under the chat in the web view will do it too.

Ah, I hadn't seen that icon.  That worked.

Really? Thanks for pointing this out!  It's just me and another guy so sometimes a few of these details get overlooked:(

I noticed that on the Referral Program page.

Might there be any plans to add username/password as an alternative method to access my account (rather than just knowledge of the access key)?

There is another service that allows both -- either the "low security" method where the URL must be bookmarked/remembered (just like with BitcoinVideoCasino) as well as the ability to use a username/password.  That seems to work well when as a compromise, otherwise I'm uncomfortable letting anyone watch me play or snap a photo as the account_key is sitting there in plain view.

Bitcoin's increasing value/price is making these too expensive to buy as cheap gifts. I think you may have to come out with a smaller denomination version.

One half BTC denominations are coming:

I’m adding a 0.5 BTC coin.  This coin is the same style in every way, but is 1 inch instead of 1.125 inches in diameter.  This is being added due to the rise in bitcoin value.  The pricing will be the same as the 1BTC coin (other than being 0.5BTC less).

2147  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why does the mt gox ask wall always look the same? on: February 22, 2013, 07:12:15 AM
Or just not keeping btc at mt gox unless they plan to sell soon?

+1

Because bitcoins can be transferred in about an hour or less there is the ability to withdraw coins until the point that they will be used for imminent trading.  So the current order depth won't show this supply as those coins haven't even been transferred to the exchanges yet nonetheless listed for sale.


Also, the walls sometimes crumble from canceled sell orders rather than being chewed through by executed trades.  So some of the coins in the wall at $30 simply ended up being moved to the new wall at $32 after trading at $30 began. 

The walls used to be more dynamic and impressive back when those following technical analysis were a bigger part of the market.  A failed assault on a wall could trigger a 20% reversal.   Now in this rally the walls are simply like mini speed bumps -- nothing that cause you to change direction nor even spill your coffee if you hit one when not looking.

My $$ is about to transfer into my Dwolla account, besides MtGox or any other site that requires unnecessary info how else can I retrieve BitCoins?
I have $980.00 , anybody willing to help ? My money should be available in 1-3 days

At this moment there's more than $980 worth of BTC available for sale under $30 at Camp BX (which you can fund using Dwolla).

I've been mining for a while now, but I opened my wallet and 47.1 bitcoins were transferred away from my encrypted wallet.    Was it hacked somehow?

https://blockchain.info/tx/bf6379b69acbe6e1ea95970dedf858c7908a00ada609a570fd45e558220bcd2c  

If you are using Bitcoin-Qt or another client with a local wallet then the only transactions you should see spending from addresses in your wallet are transactions that you've initiated.  

If you are using a hosted (shared) EWallet, then the blockchain is the wrong place to be looking to see transactions from the address you use for depositing funds.

So the first question is, what client are you using?

every import means chainrescan,

With the Bitcoin.org client v0.8, that is a configurable option so you can do multiple importprivkey with no rescan and then when you are done do the rescan.

To Stephen: like I said in my original post, it would probably be easier to buy a marker that can detect false bills to bring with you. Less conspicuous than lifting large volumes of currency up to the lights and squinting at them. Wink

Markers don't detect that bills have been bleached and reprinted.

2156  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Many addresses have 50 BTC - remember this topic? on: February 22, 2013, 12:19:54 AM
Here are the specific figures I am looking for:

-  How many Addresses have exactly 50 BTC?
-  How many Addresses have received the block award (50 or 25 BTC, plus fees), and have not had any outbound transactions.

That metric was pretty much only useful before nearly all of the mining occurred through pools.  Nowadays it is pretty much impossible to know if the payment from the pools to the miners are being saved (hoarded, some refer to it as) or spent.  The pool operators might be able to determine that to some degree since they have visibility into miner payouts but not much of that information hits the blockchain where it can be measured and even so, not even the pool operators know if the withdrawal address is a hosted (shared) EWallet address or a miner's own (local) wallet.
2157  Bitcoin / Press / Re: 2013-02-19 thenextweb.com - Internet Archive Starts Taking Bitcoin Donations to on: February 22, 2013, 12:06:17 AM
The Internet Archive does benefit from being among the first to accept Bitcoins and also being a service that many Bitcoiners use and support therefore they got a fair number of coins ... 822 BTC show as the total received and a balance yet of 336 BTC.
 - http://blockchain.info/address/17gN64BPHtxi4mEM3qWrxdwhieUvRq8R2r

It would be great to know the intentions of the employees who are opting to receive some of their salary as bitcoins.  Are they doing so because they are going to keep the coins (e.g., as investment / speculation), or do they plan to make purchases with bitcoins, or are they simply going to cash out to a local currency?

I know that organizations that need to send funds to a global workforce are constantly challenged with payment networks which have high conversion costs and limitations.  Bitcoin cuts through so much of the burden for the employer that using bitcoin instead will be a natural progression.  So far it is the P2P Foundation, Bitcoin Foundation and the Internet Archive as the first organizations to publicly state that they pay salaries using bitcoins.  When that list includes other org oDesk, Freelancer.com, eLance, etc. -- all of which would benefit greatly from offering Bitcoin as a funds transfer method for their businesses we'll know there's no turning back.

so here's the story

But here's the place to write it:

Official BitInstant Support Thread (Active Customer Support)
 - http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=128314.0

the one for 250 was sent to mtgox and not bitstamp like I had set it to

I can see myself choosing the wrong one accidentally.   If I remember correctly there's no receipt showing to you which exchange you specified when filling out the form -- so there's no easy way for you to prove that you had actually chosen the correct option.
