So now two of the board members are suing, the development team is censoring the press list and so many more acts against bitcoin. I think it is time that the foundation folds, it is literally imploding on it's self.

I personality think they can rebuild it wouldn't be easy but could be done. First order of business, cut out the development team the foundation can't work with a team of people who are power hungry. In the coming years, maybe even months I see more isolation from the development team and the community.

Second, they have to do a huge reorganization of the board structure. Gavin should hold no powers, Peter and Mark need there powers (not there membership) taken away. I think one of the biggest problems with the foundation is two many of the higher members, also own successful businesses leaving very little time for the foundation. While certain bitcoin businesses should be clearly represented in the foundation, they shouldn't hold a similar level of power. They should be included on high priority votes.

They really need to get their act together...

Yeah custom is the only way to go, I have test out AidoATP, and it will never be profitable, as well as it has some huge issues.

It looks true those papers are legit, and Mark commented

It is a scam if you send any thing to him you will be the stupidest person on this forum and in the world.

Yes let me just send 100BTC ($11,170) to a JR member with 20 posts LMAO

The problem with the foundation, is the board members with there own ventures and have no time to properly build the foundation so it is to a level that it can do a lot more.

I use a mobile wallet, just like my real wallet. I only keep about ~$60 worth of bitcoins in it. If you treat it as a physical wallet, that you know there is a risk you can lose, then there should be no problems.

What are you looking for exactly? Bitcoin code review, I can walk you thru the code if you want? It will cost you cause time is money for me.

Please don't hate on me or screen name, this is not a joke.

I am looking for someone that owns a tanning salon in NJ that be willing to take bitcoins for a package deal?

I was just reading the article this is going to be a quick easy reading news for people and I think that will be a great thing for maybe not the hardcore bitcoiners but for the casual users.

or at least an answer

Charlie is crushing it on the restaurant front and with bitinstant, I really need to get down to EVR one of these days.

He is taking his exchange software from his own http://www.hsx.com/ and applying it to bitcoin, it has features that only he has patents for in the sense of virtual stock exchanges. I don't know too much just hear about it a couple of times.

No

Is there an api to give bitcoin-otc.com a bitcoin address and return a json of the user, or null if the address isn't in the system?

I do two things, I do a cold storage, which means I create about 10,000 Addresses, load the public address into a mysql table and pull from that. I have a cronjob that tells me when I get to 1,000 Addresses and I fill it up again. I queue withdraws and manually do them.

My second method is I use a proxy java server, that I built that I can just do calls with a key and it keeps my password in memory for my bitcoind. So the key is different then the password. This proxy server does a lot more too but that is more towards other then things then security. This is a really simple explanation but it is very secure.

So I will get pass the fact you are a newbie and this is your first post and say we are talking about two different things. See your talking about taking a product or site and pivoting it to a different thing. They are just taking the original model and doing the same thing.
