It's good. But how would you get CoinDesk or any of the other companies mentioned above to use your site?
Is there already an agreement?
Yes! I will contact with agreement. Well, if you do manage to get agreements from those services mentioned above, then this service/project may have a bright future. |

I would actually find such an idea very attractive.
Firstly, we have to stop thinking about "us" - yes, us. The members here, and start to look at the greater picture, and start thinking about bitcoins wider audience. Not everyone (in the foreseeable future) that purchases products directly or indirectly with bitcoins would spend/contribute hours upon hours on this forum, or even keep-up with regular stories/news about the ecosystem.
This is my greatest reason for a committee, much like how McAfee provides verified websites, who will inform the public about proven, and possible legitimate sites with low risk.

I don't even have enough time to look at the price because every time I come back after 5 or 10 minutes the price has gone up, lol. Feels great that I so far haven't even sold a single Satoshi. Keep holding!!
I would sell in 1 month. Things are going to explode! |

Stop it with all the bs already, there won't be any rise. Any increase that would happen has long been calculated into the current price.
The only thing we will see caused by this nonsense is disappointments on crazy expectations, causing panic selling.
You're the one who should stop it with all the BS. You've been repeatedly wrong. We understand your disappointment at having sold for $10 but all the FUD in the world isn't going to change the truth. Bitcoin will continue to increase in value for years to come. I would have said the same thing in his shoes. I truly can't imagine how much pain he felt, if he did encounter a massive previously. |

I think we're safe to say, that with the significant price increases, my calculations where right on the hostspot!
The price of bitcoin today is: $648.75, £455.26 !!
No one believed me. but it's still not over.

I think this is a good idea, however as KnightDK said there are many restrictions imposed on by the bitcointalk forum that doesn't allow you to do exactly what you want. Also, the storage of so many login credentials at one single place could prove to be disastrous.
But having said that, account renting is a very good idea. Also make sure that the renter deposits some money to compensate for any losses incurred with the account(bans, negative trusts, etc.)
If you let the renter deposit some money, it could be successful, since he/she will be more careful. The only problem that 'is left' is for a renter to be a scammer. You could bypass this by having them rotate accounts though. In our case, the renter would actually be the server. We wont actually give the account to advertiser. Instead we'll actually just edit the sig camps for them, when they've paid for a new signature campaign (all without them having actually access to the account). This in my opinion is probably the safest option. Good idea for automated thing it will have a flexibility in work and such. But it also have a lot of time to work the project can have a lot of error and require maximum effort. The site should maintain its uptime and other generation will know this forum honestly the idea is as crazy as it is it's great to have such an implementation. Hi wuvdoll, I'm really happy you understand, and find this concept really helpful. Hopefully more people would join to have signature campaigns automated for them. |

Does anyone know whether the owner got Gox did get a prison sentence (for how many years), or did he walk free?
Is there any websites which was/is currently tracking coin movements from the exchange?
From my knowledge there is no coin movement anymore. Authorities recovered 200000 bitcoins from his exchange and rest is lost. About his sentence, im curious myself, he served some jail time but it was not sentence yet probably. Thanks for the information, I didn't hear about a sentence as well. I really can't imagine them letting a criminal like him free to ruin other people's life. |

I've been thinking about this lately for some reason. Without POW.
How would you actually implement a DDNS network?
Of course you would have a local database so each node can store its own list (domain_name + IP_addresses + "some sort of RSA public key"). But when a name is being registered in this sort of network, how would prevent evil_nodes from modifying and propagating bad values for (IP or domain_name) to other nodes?
What about when two domain_names, of the same value & different IP, are being added to the network at the same time, how would select which one to use, if you can't even rely on time of creation, since it can be forged?
Has anyone got any starting point on this?

It is worth investing, bitcoins popularity and ease of usage in gambling is becoming much more noticeable everyday. As you already, it ultimately depends on the type of casino you're investing in - does it offer something new, or is it just a generic version of already existing bitcoin casino services?

Does anyone know how compliant the classic bitcoin gambling sites are? I'd guess some of them are so old that there wasn't any regulation at the time and they carried on. But there must be alot of money on the line to continue risking it.
Personally, I think it would be a good idea to worry about these things, 5 - 1year after you've actually tested the idea and started making profits (if you do). Don't let this issue become a road block. Your question: Yes, you would need a gambling license if you're operating serving UK customers. It shouldn't cost you more than 1k yearly. Because of the lack of regulation in this jurisdiction, it doesn’t appear on the white-list of the United Kingdom Gambling Commission. As such, gambling sites based in Costa Rica cannot market their services to UK residents.Lets look at this properly. FortuneJack is licensed in Cosa Rica, as a UK consumer, I'm still able to use their services. This might be the step to take. This also applies to: > satoshiDice that's licensed in Costa Rica > bustabit that's licensed in Costa Rica > Many more ... - to read - > Setting up a BitCoin Casino from Costa Rica> Bitcoin gambling license jurisdictions on March 22, 2015]Contrary to this some lawyers argue that having a website available in a country and accepting users from that country means a business is operating in that country even if that businesses servers and licence are not located there.
Attempts by politicians, media and local gambling operators to paint offshore sites as unlicensed law breakers are self serving and meant to protect incumbents and tax revenu. Just because a company is not separately licensed in every nation in the world does not make them unlicensed if they have a licence to offer their product globally from their home jurisdiction.
Low taxing international centers for online gambling licences include Alderney, The Northern Territory in Australia, Curacao, The Isle of Man, Gibraltar, Malta and The Philippines. The main centers for the bitcoin gambling industry are Costa Rica, Panama and Eastern Europe/Russia. -- -- Advice: Buy a Top Level Domain such as .com (you should use .ru or a domain that is specific to the countries listed below). Setup a Web-host/VPS server located in Costa Rica, Panama or Eastern Europe/Russia, then purchase a gambling license from the country where your web-host/servers are located. Done. Note: I think this should be pinned somewhere. |

Well done, really!
Hopefully more people will greatly appreciate the amount of time you spent writing this book.
We need to support more projects like this in various other platforms and languages.

You can get t-shirts with Satoshi quotes on them now. This one's got a famous Satoshi quote on, and I prefer it to some of the rubbish t-shirts you can buy from high street shops. The only thing I don't like about it is the creator should have put Satoshi's name on it to let newbies know who it's quoting.  Thanks for the reply, It's awesome to see t-shirts with Satoshi's quotes on it. Is there a website, or other styles (with light, background design), available? |

The bitcoin system turns out to be socially useful and valuable, so
that node operators feel that they are making a beneficial contribution
to the world by their efforts (similar to the various "@Home" compute
projects where people volunteer their compute resources for good causes).
In this case it seems to me that simple altruism can suffice to keep the
network running properly. It's very attractive to the libertarian viewpoint if we can explain it
properly. I'm better with code than with words though. -- -- Sorry about all the questions, but as I said this does seem to be a
very promising and original idea, and I am looking forward to seeing
how the concept is further developed. It would be helpful to see a more
process oriented description of the idea, with concrete details of the
data structures for the various objects (coins, blocks, transactions),
the data which is included in messages, and algorithmic descriptions
of the procedures for handling the various events which would occur in
this system. You mentioned that you are working on an implementation,
but I think a more formal, text description of the system would be a
helpful next step. I appreciate your questions. I actually did this kind of backwards. I had to
write all the code before I could convince myself that I could solve every
problem, then I wrote the paper. I think I will be able to release the code
sooner than I could write a detailed spec. You're already right about most of
your assumptions where you filled in the blanks. -- -- You have an outline
and proposal for such a design, which is a big step
forward, but the devil is in the little details. I believe I've worked through all those little details over the
last year and a half while coding it, and there were a lot of them.
The functional details are not covered in the paper, but the
sourcecode is coming soon. I sent you the main files.

Don't get me wrong but I don't think that Bitcoin is a game for someone who is only 14.
Nothing is a game at 14. For some of us, that's when we started shaping our career. If young children don't actually have the ability to purchase bitcoins until their like 18 - 21, do you think they'll bother to check it out then? I personally think the community is losing out on a lot of younger users (to increase bitcoins adoption) because of how difficult it is to obtain them. |
