There's been open source nvidia miner for several months, and there is also a russian miner (kminer) which has a much lower fee (0.7%) and supposed to have faster speeds as well, for last month or two.

got the munchies here... don't post yummie stuff...  

What is your point? Seems like you are all over the place when talking about mark and the "theft" or "bug".

I watched the documentary and all I see is a scammer.

I think everyone is expecting a coil pop to the end of the bear market. Lets just be calm and enjoy the weekend with popcorn in hand.

Restarted computer and wallet now wallet is not connecting to network stuck at 25 hrs ago

You claim to have a learned background, but a fundamental of science is that you should not and can not pretend away evidence and retain credibility.

When assessing the fundamental value of Bitcoin, this is the single most important basis to work from:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metcalfe's_law

Mt Gox, Oct deadlines, Apple Pay, Chinese speculation all serve simply to create blips in the Bitcoin megatrend, they are irrelevant long-term.

In fact, Bitcoin should observe Metcalfe's Law in its purest form because it is not hampered by language differences. Money, like sex, is universally transacted.

no way 400 b4 350

IF 400 cannot be held, or reached  

can we please not have high volume days sat and sun, FFS  stop trading bitcoin, go out and get laid.

Great Western Bancorp (GWB) priced 16 million shares at $18. The opening print was $18 on a print of 986,296 shares.

Jon Hilsenrath of The Wall Street Journal has written today that the drop in commodity prices may give the Fed room to wait on any interest rate increase

With the best will in the world, I think you really need to read about the history of the places you've mentioned.  The indigenous peoples there did not, as you seem to be implying, enjoy the arrival of foreign colonials who enslaved their poor, robbed their rich, usurped their leaders and dominated their territory for decades, ultimately diluting and/or utterly overwhelming their cultures entirely.

If you'll forgive me I'm going to bow out of the conversation at this point.  I'm pretty sure trying to educate racists and the innocent-but-ignorant the Internet isn't in my list of things to do.

@mmitech I enjoy agreeing with you so profoundly on this one.  I don't think that happens all that often - a pity the topic isn't related to BTC really.    But seriously, I wouldn't waste your breath on these people any more.
