Sent theymos a message and moved the thread to Meta. You're welcome!

The title was creative. It was edited to refelect the real title. About deletions, well, the Press board just lost about 400 threads because Ephebus decided to edit all his threads with an article about dog eating vietnamese in an incredibly assholish move, so they were removed/trashed. Most probably the article you say it's not a dupe now, was a dupe 12 hours ago.

Given that you opened 2 threads more about this subject, I sent one of them to the trashcan and am locking his one.

Don't you "moron" me. October 23rd?? What is this, fucking Mars time? The thread was on page 1 today. I didn't look to see if the link had been back-dated 3 days. Edit: though I guess it looks like the site probably does that automatically. Still doesn't make me a moron. Yes, it does make you a moron. 1- The date is below the thread title, so... 2- You didn't even search. I found it in 5 seconds, by searching the thread title. 3- You posted the same in 2 different threads, just to show how nasty we moderators are. 4- Given the above, you care more about spreading FUD than facts

Lol. The thread had indeed been moved to off-topic. Just speculatin' ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Now I can't find the little grey "Moved..." hyperlink anywhere in General. Some mod really went out of their way to hide that thread without the obvious deletion... Doo-dee-doo-duu-doo-dee-doo-duu... ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) STFU, moron... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=316855.0

People don't read the sticky. Instead, you should force people to read the guideline when they are about to post. Annoying yes, but I hate having to chase around a handful of people who don't care about the date format and don't fix it.
+666 That's the number of punches I'll give you if you ever have the bad luck of crossing my path.

Thanks, OP's link was disappointing ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) . Sorry for being offtopic, but I am not sure how my link didn't work and this one did? They are exactly the same, is this a joke on me or something? :p I fixed your link, ofcourse they're exactly the same... NOW!

If you are not sure that you're the only one to have a private key, don't import it to your wallet. It may bring issues with double spends(by other party) and get your wallet in a poor state and in need of a fix, but it will not allow other party to access your other private keys. Or you may give that address by mistake, to receive funds, and end up with the funds stolen.

Could you please guide me how to do this, as I can't figure how to work with command lines.
Thank you
1. go to the folder where bitcoin is installed 2. shift + right-click -> open command window here 3. type "bitcoin-qt -rescan" into the command window (without quotes) and hit enter 4. wait for bitcoin to rescan. this may take 30 minutes. The command is -reindex, not -rescan. -reindex is a full replay of the blockchain. It will take longer than 30min.

This is now the top story at forbes.com.
It was also pointed out by Mike Caldwell in the Press section that "FBI" encodes as "324" on a telephone pad. Does that not seem like too much fanfare for the FBI?
No, not really that much fanfare, just their way to celebrate and rub it on the "criminals"* faces. I've seen cops in my country drawing their initials(PJ, GNR, PSP) with the bank notes they seize, when showing off the stash to the media. *"Criminals" because when the cops do that most of said "criminals" weren't found yet to be guilty of any crime by a court of law.

Start it from the command line with the -reindex flag.

Good. 170k BTC out of the market. Up, up, up!
Right, they're just going to throw the key away.. They're not selling them on MtGox, Bitstamp, or BTC-e, either...

I didn't see a mention of payment methods.
Large US wire transfers (or similar) only. No ACH, PayPal, Western Union, etc.
