You don't need to use bitcoind. Bitcoin-qt can send to multiple recipients also.
Just press the Add Recipient button at the bottom left corner on the Send Coins tab of Bitcoin-qt.
You can add as many recipients(addresses) as you wish. It will send everything on one transaction only.

Quote from: BitcoinFoundation.org
To promote transparency and enforce fair voting procedures, we require a real name and address for Individual members. We will eventually include address and name verification procedures. Please note that member dues paid to records that do not include a real name and mailable address will not be refunded. Thank you!
Why address?

Prevention of double voting can be accomplished using name ID only. There is no need for the foundation to have my home address.

Passports and many national ID cards do not have address on them, so you would need to obtain utility bills for proof of address creating an unnecessary paperwork burden.

I would be happy to verify my name using passport but I will not be supplying my home address. I hope the Foundation could reconsider removing the address requirement from individual membership.


It would be very unwise to hand over your home address.

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/sep/6/atfs-latest-gun-grab/

This is dangerous and foolhardy.

Yeah, it's like giving FED/CIA/FBI/MAFIAA all data necessary to imprison all dissidents on a plate (in case they would declare Bitcoin illegal). I do not like this.

This actually works like a honeypot. I wouldn't be surprised if, in case of data leakage (which is quite probable), FBI automatically wiretapped all people on the list...

Shouldn't there be an option of confirming one's Identity in-person ? For example by meeting one of "core members" in a public place ?

This is totally a serious issue, jokes & trolling aside.

 
Sometimes, reading this forum makes me believe the stupidity that there are actually two sides to choose from, and that I should be working for the CIA, FBI, and the BTF.
  
This forum is a honeypot, and should remain a honeypot, for paranoid narcissists, instant experts, know-it-all pundits, wannabe criminals, and delusional losers.
 

You dont think the US would classify people using bitcoin as terrorists ? You havent been paying attention  Smiley

http://www.activistpost.com/2011/12/10-ridiculous-things-that-make-you.html


Of course they would.
Nowadays, everybody who doesn't think like sheep & behave like sheep is a terrorist.

Regardless of what is The Bitcoin Foundation normal function, it will act **LIKE** a honeypot, in case they declare that Bitcoin users are terrorists and start arresting.

Also, all the servers are in US, so it would be TRIVIAL for any law enforcement to get to the foolish ones who willingly offered their IPs & home addresses.

vescudero seems to have paid back in full and is thus not a ponzi. im sure you will want to verify that but it is something that you should note. 

I suspect they will say that having paid back in full doesn't prove it wasn't a ponzi... Wait for it... Roll Eyes

It's somewhat amusing that those "get over it and forget it" people cannot get over it and forget it, but keep popping up in every Pirate thread to preach with a missionary fanaticism their boring litany.

Get over it and forget it Wink

If anyone doesn't know, you can get those stats at the bottom of the 'Home' page.

I woudn't rely on those stats much. About 50% of new registrations are bots who only wish to post a link with anchor text at the profile page.  Kiss
2328  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: The pirate and the SEC - Alleged e-mails. on: September 30, 2012, 07:41:31 PM
I got exactly the same email an hour ago...
Here is the full copy: http://pastie.org/4791945

- Anyone know what is this about?
- How did they got my email address?

I didn't invest with Pirate, so I honestly don't know why I am receiving this anyways.

Did you give him a rating on OTC?  It seems that everyone getting it so far has rated Pirate on OTC.
I have received this email, from a legitimate .gov address. AFAIK they got my address from OTC somehow... I rated him -10 for "defaulted on large loan."

Not sure if I agree with you. I also rated him -10 and my email can be found on my public key(just like yours) and I didn't get any email.

Also, this forum does not work as a honeypot. One can use PROXY or TOR to access it.

All known proxies and tor exit nodes r banned on this forum.

Only for new registrations. After you register you can use Tor all you like.

Anyone else have problem with link this card into PayPal account?

I got this error message >

Code:
"This credit card has been denied by the bank that issued your credit card. For details on why your card was denied, please contact your credit card issuer's customer service department. Or, you may want to try adding a different credit card." 

 Huh

Paypal needs to charge your credit card with €1. If you never made a SEPA transfer to fund the card, ofcourse it will be denied.

Regarding the png's embedded on the SVG I have good news and bad news...

The good news first: I managed to convert those layers to SVG and I can get a revised file available to download as soon as I get on my laptop, probably by tomorrow.

The bad news: The SVG is 7MB...  Undecided

hazek, you're really annoying me.

First, you edited my OP and broke all of the links changing .org to .com.

What? Huh
Did you do that hazek? Really? If so, why?

Notice the time the thread was posted.


Notice the time it was last edited by Gavin.


And the time hazek made his first post in this thread...

In fact there are 2 guys in there and the dude is not taking a leak but roling a spliff Wink

Not quite sure why you put this on the Newbies section...   Huh
Well, I suppose newbies can debate it also, but it would probably fit better on some other section, like, for example, Project Development.

You're right, I actually edited my post right after posting it to remove Matthew specific remarks and changed it to just focus in general. I don't want to trash talk him too bad when he can't defend himself cause I know there's more than one side to every story.  Wink

I thought he was only tagged as scammer. Was he also perma-banned?

All universities. Hmmm. Even the BCnet addres is registered to "Simon Fraser University".
Could these entities be working together to attain high hash rates?
