Describe the two cryptographic concepts bitcoin is based on:
- public key cryptography (focus on signing) ;
- proof of work (explain how this is used for a distributed time server) ;

I might show up as well, if you don't mind somebody trying to convince you that inflatacoin is what we need :-)
Oh this could be fun. |

I'll be in Paris with my family next month, and would like to arrange a meeting or two with other bitcoin-people. Who is in/near Paris, and what would be a good time/place to meet?
PS: sorry for not writing in French, it has been a very LONG time since high-school French class...
I live in Paris and I'd be pleased to meet you, Gavin. Anyone else ? I guess we could meet in a café, restaurant or something. |

Il y aurait éventuellement le salon linuxsolution qui doit avoir lieu en mai cette année à la Défense. http://www.solutionslinux.fr/En ce moment ils en appellent aux demandes de participation, justement. |

wow, just had a look at the site. It got pretty impressive with a large choice of different stuffs.

If it works with wget and not with curl that's because the CA mtgox used isn't in the certificate bundle that's included with curl. The CA bundle included with curl is notorious for being out of date.
If it doesn't work at all, my best guess is a misconfigured load balancer or poisoned DNS.
BTW, I haven't seen any equivalent of the "--no-check-certificate" option in curl's manual page. |

After some hesitation, I voted "remove it".
Not that I think dark pools are a bad thing or that it should be forbidden. I just don't think it's necessary and I'd rather see as many orders as possible.
But I really think it's only up to you. MtGox is your business, not ours.

Well, if it doesn't work with curl, at least it does with wget. See above.
However, you might need to use a SSL-compiled version. See docs.

Providing games-related services is a simple and potentially efficient way to earn your first bitcoins.
I whish I was a gamer myself so I could do the same.
Good luck and welcome in the bitcoin economy.

Again: honnestly Genjix I really think those guys don't deserve your efforts.

Not bad. I suspect this comes from a general theory about how new ideas get adopted. Am I right? |

Hey, just want you all to know I'm buying gold from Mexicans for $500/oz. I know it's low, but I'll give you the money so it's cool guys, I want to buy some gold.
:-) So true. |

Ok I guess I had a wrong impression then. My bad.
Somehow it seems that you're working for the "ennemy" though. Think about it.

This article is a nice tribute to bitcoin. People are starting to realize how huge is this discovery. Not those people attending this conf though. I'm pretty sure they thought it was a prank. There were even some women attending this conference. That tells you a lot about this public. |

It should be a post. I used to have a script mtgox.sh for that: curl -d `cat credentials` https://mtgox.com/code/${1}.phpwhere the file credentials would contain: name=username&pass=passwordso you could do: mtgox.sh getFundsBut lately, my script stopped working with: curl: (35) Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to mtgox.com:443I tried looking into it, but it didn't seem to work, no matter if i change protocol version --sslv2 or use the --no-sessionid option, which people suggested when this error occurs. I guess mtgox SSL requirements changed somehow... HAve you tried with www.mtgox.com instead of just mtgox.com? I think there is an issue about that. |

Indeed, I could connect with a command like: $ read -s passwd ; wget -q --no-check-certificate --no-proxy -O - " https://www.mtgox.com/code/getFunds.php" --post-data="name=grondilu&pass=$passwd" And I had my JSON string: {"usds":0,"btcs":0} This is pretty cool. |

Oh et puis non, j'ai changé d'avis.
Je me rends compte qu'une telle conférence n'aurait d'autre intérêt que de satisfaire mon égo sur-dimensionné.
Et j'ai même été jusqu'à proposer de payer pour louer la salle en plus !
Honte à moi. Est-ce que Satoshi s'est donné en spectacle à un moment ou un autre ? Non.
En plus, je comprends mal au nom de quoi je devrais parler de bitcoin à des gens qui n'ont pas envie de savoir ce que c'est puisqu'ils n'ont jamais pris l'initiative de chercher "monnaie électronique" ou un truc du genre dans Wikipedia. On n'a que ce qu'on mérite, et pour certains c'est l'igonrance.
