The second half of the graph definitely doesn't look very convincing. Also, is it known for sure that any of the black dots are Satoshi's blocks? I hope that Satoshi does have a lot of bitcoins. He definitely deserves them, and it's better that he have them than someone else. He mined them fair and square -- this is not equivalent to premining. I doubt that Satoshi threw those bitcoins away... Sigh... why delete a wallet instead of moving it aside and keeping the old copy just in case? You should never delete a wallet.
I think by definition black dots are unspent and therefore difficult to be linked with Satoshi. The most interesting is the linkage of the red dots with Satoshi, and their statistical relationship with those black dots. Block 9 is sure, and I think there are possibly other known public transactions. |

And really, it is Satoshi's identity that lies at the core of these efforts. All of them.
'He' wants to remain anonymous, and I am ethically constructed in such a way that a request like that - from someone who has done no harm to anyone - is inviolate. Would selling 1M bitcoins do no harm to anyone? What you want is for this information to remain hidden because it is very damaging to bitcoin's reputation. No one who has not invested in bitcoins gives a shit about who Satoshi is. What they will care about is that this mysterious inventor has the currency by the balls. Oh. And you're a fool if you believe that. Entirely aside from the fact that I haven't expressed that, and certainly don't appreciate having words put in my mouth... There are exactly two things that have happened during the rise of bitcoin that - together - have done more for the adoption of the currency than all the others (reddit, Wikileaks, OWS, WordPress, Seals With Clubs, and all the others - more and more; faster and faster). They are: The disappearance of Satoshi and 'his' continuing anonymity, and The purchase of two pizzas for 10k BTC. Anyone who wants the currency to succeed understands that. You, of course - from what I'm able to glean from your postings - clearly want bitcoin to fail. This analysis uses nothing but data in public domain. Won't you think CSI has already done the same analysis? Some serious, big investors may have done the same analysis too |

Everyone ready for the almost* inevitable flash-crash?
(*weasel word alert)
I think the rule of the game has changed. Those bullish flash crash won't happen again |

It is broken, downward Bearish triangle forming? Or wait is it bullish? Well, it might be a triangle at least...  |

Thanks for fixing the problem. However, why would you want to reduce the timeout from 0.01s to 0.001s? Would there be any noticeable difference?
That check happens in the main thread, which means it blocks until it's done. That means the GUI will be unresponsive for up to 0.01s on each call. If this function was called every 0.1 seconds, the interface would be jittery and laggy. It's not called that often, but in the future I might want to... So, I want the value as low as possible unless I want to go through the hassle of somehow multithreading it. Since it's localhost, I figured 0.001s was more than enough time anyway. And I was right... for all systems except Windows Server 2008, apparently... Oh well. I reverted it back to 0.01s, which isn't a problem when it's called at most once-per-second, and I'm sure it will have minimal impact. I just have to be careful if I want to increase that frequency. Not sure if it is the problem of all Windows Server 2008 R2 or just my own problem. You may try, let say, reduce it to 0.005s and see if it works on my system |

looks like the bulls are running!
95+
Failed to hit 100. Double top? maybe. or just consolidation. bid side looks strong but ask side has also filled up with people ready to unload. tons of selling pressure, it's up to the market to decide whether or not $100 bitcoins can really be taken seriously again. It keeps making lower highs on the way down. The only exception is the current break out, with the last high at 82. If it fails to hit the previous major high at 102 in this wave, we should at least re-visit 82. 82 seems to be a magic number, as 2 lows and 1 high after the crash. |

The exploit took advantage of the fact that he was already logged in, so even if he was using 2f how could this have helped unless Mt. Gox requires 2f again when you perform a withdrawal.
Every Mt. Gox 2f user knows Mt. Gox requires 2f again when a withdrawal is performed  |

There will be more orphaned blocks with faster block creation. As more hashing power is wasted, security is lowered

This trend is obviously broken. There is no reason to believe there is exponential amount of new money keep flowing in after the huge correction. My first published chart since the crash.  Disclaimer: it's just numbers and a little bit of extrapolation in case we revert to a generally bullish trend set in the first couple of months of this year so perma-bears and perma-bulls please don't bite  |

What would be the effect of gold and silver crash on bitcoin? I suspect many bitcoiners are also gold/silver bugs. Would they sell bitcoin to cover their loss in PM? Or they would move their investment from PM to BTC?

Would anyone here be able to translate bitcoin.clarkmoody.com for me?
Please give me a price quote. Thanks.

我自己有租用 香港的服务器 不过ping 国外的矿池 300-400ms的速度 采矿时候经常TIME OUT 这样整体速度就下来了。。
海外頻寬肯定是有限的, 最終的問題是你願意付多少錢 |

如果有人告訴你, 可以不勞而獲20BTC, 那肯定是騙子!. 如果有好的賺錢方法, 為何要私下聊? 不拿出來和大家分享?
好自為之!
世界上还真有免费的午餐 虽然一次达不到20BTC 但起码比他自己用显卡挖矿 快，小圈子流传不是更好？一旦流传开 就像艳照门一样 被封杀 典型的騙局 你确定是 骗局？要不GT联系？ 你21楼说的 不就是免费的午餐 自己打自己的脸？ 那不是免費午餐, 是需要時間的勞動 那就是有就对了吧 起码比他的 GST 450快把？ 别不知道什么情况 就是是骗子 没人有说过 马上就能得到20BTC OK? 我已經說了那不是免費午餐, 而且肯定比GTS450慢. 如果你有賺錢的方法, 卻只能告訴一個急需要錢的中學生, 而不能在這裏講出來, 那必定是騙局 恰恰我就这么干了 而且你问问他本人 我说的东西是不是真的？ 這是真的。。雖然不能一日內20個btc。。但的確比gts450快 我一日只有0.0005個左右 但他介紹的方法一比我的0.0005個翻了接近x倍 方法具體就是點擊廣告之類 但你找不到網站有更多btc的我都只能無言 你不知的不代表不存在 好吧, 那不算騙局, 我道歉. 但你自己算一下, 香港最低工資每小時28HKD, 現在(100USD/BTC)可以買0.036BTC. 你按一小時廣告可以有0.036BTC嗎? 我跟他有推荐一个矿池 虽然现在矿池服务器维护中但是那个矿池 挖的速度比较快 达到0.003左右 而且是波动的 我测试几个小时就 0.007 因为考虑到香港对于 现在国际上的矿池网络速度不快 所以挖的慢 网络原因得考虑。。还有硬件环境。。跟他聊完 我才发现。。香港的IT硬件 不是很发达。。。大多都是几年前的电脑。。 那是你對談對象的問題 論速度, 香港是世界上最早有真正光纖到戶的城市之一, 現在一個月600元可以有1Gbps. 至於電腦硬件, 你可以到這裏看看香港在賣什麼: http://www.price.com.hk/group.php?g=20 |

Almost 4k ask wall popped up at 105.. Looks like someone wants the price down..
Or trying to squeeze it into 100$ for a while by equalling the ask and bid in this range. Current 6400btc to 95$ and 6800btc to 105$ and we're stuck in the middle. It does seem to have found a comfortable point now doesn't it? I'm thinking: Gox has trading ready to shutdown now on a lag peak - this could make a massive difference to stop any slide. It could have stopped $10 higher had they been ready to this earlier. To close on $100 today would mean the first green day since the last crash and would be up 8% close-to-close. I call a close of $120 on Monday. Free trading's over, little less liquidity in the market now, slower volatile movements too perhaps? On that basis, I'm back in, all coins, no cash. Yes, I'm hopeful also. I was very happy yesterday to see just how effective the brief trade halting cooldowns worked. I'd been saying it for days, 'halt trading briefly, let the lag die down and restart trading' but we all had to see it in action before knowing whether it would be affective or not. The tapered/staggered cooldowns worked wonderfully. 5-10 mins lag is the max we should ever see in my opinion, they should implement an auto cooldown feature if they aren't watching their market 24/7. We can all live with brief 10 minute breaks to fix the blind trading spiral lag, it is helpful for all, and is far different from the 12 hours that pissed everyone off. +1. I think 3 minutes lag is already intolerable. |

You are not a noob. Obviously you know what 2-factor authorization is and you are lazy enough not to use it. How could you blame MtGox and even ask for any compensation? So at 10:06pm ET on April 10th 2013 I was on btc-e reading the chat box. Then and there someone posted a link to www mtgox-chat info (do not open unless you know what you are doing) claiming a video announcement that mtgox was going to start trading litecoins. I clicked on the link, the website opened, not much happened, and the "video"/chatbox never loaded. I then forgot about this website.  Some while later at approx 11pm, I received an email. This was an email from mtgox that a withdrawal had taken place. I thought this was a joke. ------------------------------------------------------------ Dear bitbull, There has been a withdrawal from your Mt.Gox account: Transaction reference: 97235bfd-9909-4020-9f06-e9d318c1ef7f Date: 2013-04-11 02:06:22 GMT IP: 198.203.29.120 You can access your account history for more details. Please contact us as soon as possible by replying to this email if you did not request this withdrawal. Thanks, The Mt.Gox Team ------------------------------------------------------------ I immediately responded back to them, but what I discovered is that the withdrawal had been instantly processed and already confirmed in the blockchain: https://blockchain.info/tx/bb30f2f110ba5b7bb60812bc3d7744f5086f6b4a38439566f1888a8d26e1fbec which left less than a third of a bitcoin in my account. I then realized that this withdrawal happened at the EXACT time i accessed the mtgox-chat website based on my browser history. I then realized that I only received my notification email from them much after the fact apparently because their servers are overloaded and not functioning correctly. Being a techie, I started researching. I found out that this site is hosted here in the USA. I also found out that the withdrawal was submitted from an IP in Los Angeles even though I have been accessing mtgox from Pennsylvania / New York. I then discovered that the site is a teleport pro rip of bitcoincharts.com branded with a mtgox logo, and was registered on namecheap (with bitcoins as it may be) not even 5 days ago! This is the IP resolve of the domain name.  I then discovered that the site is loaded with a java script which, based on an initial analysis by my java programmer friend, is a 0 day java exploit with a cross site injection attack, which automatically started. It also contains an additional keylogger payload, all customized specifically for mtgox. They even "offer" an easy to use file download link for those whose browsers are not running java. This script INSTANTANEOUSLY initiated a mtgox withdrawal of nearly all my btc (34btc) in the background (I was logged into mtgox on that browser, seemed to be using some form of proxy to access my browser cookie cache it would seem) and then changed the account password so I couldn't login anymore. This was proven to be 100% automatic as the withdrawal occurred the same exact minute I accessed that website for the first time. It then continued to gather all my computer passwords and logged everything I was doing including my blockchain account (as I eventually located the log files) and then sent it to the hackers / script kiddies. Luckily I have dual password protection on my blockchain wallet otherwise all my other bitcoins would be gone too. I wouldn't just call them just script kiddies because this script was very specific and well written for the mtgox website. I had two antiviruses running and neither caught it. Only later malwarebytes picked it up as a well encoded trojan payload executable.  Mtgox has clearly not had time to respond, and I fear they will claim this is my fault as I have seen in other posts online that they say "report it to the police". They should compensate me 100%. First because their site is not secured against such rudimentary attacks as has been demonstrated today. I'm not the first and certainly not the last so long as they don't deal with this. Second because their security policy should account for such instances, and I did not even have an opportunity to warn them I did not make the withdrawal. Yet most importantly, BECAUSE THEY SHOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS OVER 3 DAYS AGO!!! http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1bvl4n/beware_when_clicking_any_link_from_chatboxesirc/Yeah, I'm stupid, I should have enabled a Yubikey or other 2nd auth method when bitcoins started exploding in value ... but still, this attack is rather basic and should not be possible on a site at the level of Mt. Gox. I can only imagine how people with larger amounts would feel if clicking on a link emptied their account $10k+... This is a serious loss for me, and unless this is handled correctly this can also badly affect the community. I know they are super busy as they are backlogged with over 10,000 account verifications - I can only hope this gets handled appropriately. Does anyone have any advice how to go about contacting mtgox, they are so busy they don't even realize someone has a specialized phishing operation running to rob their customers! Any advice is very much appreciated. |
