This might be the stupidest thing to ask.  Grin But still.... As pot is now legal there, can someone start an online website there to sell marijuana and hash?

The Swedish Pirate Party is one of the strongest and best organized of its kind in the whole of Europe. I don't know whether they accept BTC donations or not. But they are the strongest supporters of TPB in Europe.

Wow. I forgot how fraught with fakes and whatnot things are!

No, I am not going to download your fake xvid codec, unrecognisable website!

Well, you can install the K-Lite codec pack. It is completely safe and recognized by most media players. 99.999% of the media players will need no more codec files if you install it.

Please don't download any unknown or unfamiliar codec packs.

It is? You cannot blame a currency when criminals use it

Me and you will understand. But common people will never think so. They will say that Bitcoin is used by criminals, because it is easier and more anonymous to do so.

This doesn't mean that the whole Bitcoin community is made of scammers.
It's true, it's easier to steal with Bitcoin now and we really need a standard centralized escrow service which can "verify" vendors and buyers, something like paypal (I can't believe I said that!) Not for everyone to use but some will find it useful

A few weeks ago, I posted here for a similar system. Suddenly some of the senior users got ballistic and shouted me down. It will never happen. And Bitcoins will never become mainstream, unless such a system comes in to existence.

thank you melacs
i remember when someone register on mtgox some information need submit and it can not be changed

First name   
Middle Name   
Last name
Date Of Birth   
Country Of Birth


it means the hacker use my identity to pass the verification

This is unbelievable. How came he got your ID papers? Either you stored your scanned copies in a compromised system, or someone close to you did the hack.

In Kenya, a bitcoin-based remittance provider named BitPesa is already creating the waves. So who knows? May be Africa will be the first to prove that Bitcoins can demolish the mighty WU.

exactly how could this be better than romneycare?

Less actual options, overwhelming costs etc?

Romneycare was much better than this one. Because Romney is an intelligent person who knows how to spend money, unlike the idiot Obama.
22009  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Hi gays, I was selled a few bitcoins just now on: December 23, 2013, 10:01:38 AM
He talk to gay population on this forum not to you guy.  Huh easy ... Smiley

lol... what percentage of the population here is actually gay? I heard somewhere that 2% of all bitcoiners are female. So my guess is that the gay population will be less than 2%.  Grin

Back to the topic, to the OP. If you sold your BTCs for $100 a month ago, then there is nothing you can do now. Even if you buy BTC at current levels, you'll get only 1/8th of your original BTCs. Still something is better than nothing.  Smiley

It's not their fault your account got hacked.

No. In this case the Mt Gox is also equally responsible for the hack. They were the ones who accepted fake documents from the hacker and passed them.
22011  Bitcoin / Press / Re: 2013-12-21: Chinese Bitcoin Exchange OKCoin Accused of Faking Trading Data on: December 23, 2013, 09:53:31 AM
in this community, like all others, there will always be dishonest people.

Agreed. But the problem is that in the Bitcoin community, the proportion of scammers is much higher than that in other fields. And this is preventing Bitcoin from becoming mainstream.
22012  Bitcoin / Press / Re: 2013-12-21: Chinese Bitcoin Exchange OKCoin Accused of Faking Trading Data on: December 23, 2013, 09:36:32 AM
If they really start acting against scammers that lurk in the bitcoin community it's more likely that we will see this community getting decimated. Just check out the scam section and it's size.

I really want the scammers to be removed from the Bitcoin scene. I don't care whether it will decimate the community or not. I don't want dishonest people here.

Haven't tried this yet, but checking it out now:

http://www.foolishit.com/vb6-projects/cryptoprevent/

Hmm... I found this article interesting. Cryptoprevent is also mentioned in it. According to them, Cryptoprevent was created by John Nicholas Shaw, CEO and developer of Foolish IT, a computer consultancy based in Outer Banks, N.C. 
22014  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why switching to mBTC won't increase Bitcoin price. on: December 23, 2013, 09:30:39 AM
However it seems that the concensus move is mBTC first, and µBTC later if necessary. I'm okay with that.

I agree. For the time being, lets proceed with mBTC. We can use uBTC later, if it is necessary. Satoshi and nBTC are completely useless as far as I am concerned.
22015  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Can i sue mtgox? on: December 23, 2013, 09:29:27 AM
Suing Mt Gox will never work. Since they are based in Japan, you need to contact a Japanese lawyer. Suing them in the US will never work, because they don't have any assets in the US.
22016  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is purchasing Gold/Silver for Bitcoins easier? on: December 23, 2013, 09:28:37 AM
I have never purchased bullion for Bitcoin. But one of my friends purchased a 1 Oz gold coin through BMR. At that time the rate was 1 BTC = ~ $100. He is cursing himself now.
22017  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What was the 90,000 BTC transaction? on: December 23, 2013, 07:53:48 AM
I don't think that it was Mt Gox. In 2010, Mt Gox wasn't dealing with that much BTCs. Those coins belonged to some other exchange.
There was no "other exchange" before MtGox.
Bitcoin Market was before Mtgox.

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/History

New Liberty Standard was established in October 2009. It dealt with tens of thousands of Bitcoins everyday before it closed down.
22018  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin mixers on: December 23, 2013, 07:50:30 AM
Mixers are really not needed anymore. If you want to mix your coins, simply register with any exchange, send your coins to them, create a new wallet, and withdraw your coins from the exchange to that wallet. Bam! Your coins are now untraceable.

I don't think this will work. The exchanges maintain logs. If you are sending dirty BTCs to the exchange, then they will be easily recognized.
22019  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why switching to mBTC won't increase Bitcoin price. on: December 23, 2013, 07:48:57 AM
Here is a handy table for those that need it.

I don't understand the logic of using Nano Bitcoin. Bitcoin will never reach a value which is high enough to justify using the term "Nano Bitcoin". Even Satoshi is excessive.
22020  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I am pretty confident we are the new wealthy elite, gentlemen. on: December 23, 2013, 07:47:01 AM
I AM PRETTY CONFIDENT OUR GRANDCHILDREN ARE THE NEW WEALTHY ELITE, GENTLEMEN (and bitchick)... NOT US!! DEAD SERIOUS

If you are confident that your children will not sell off the coins which they inherit, then may be.

BTC can reach the million mark by 2050 (latest). So may be our kids will be rich too.  Grin
