Thing is you would need a trusted third party/arbiter. A company like paypal is ideally suited for that. Bitcoin isnt about to render that obsolete, quite the contrary. Ive always seen bitcoin and paypal as natural allies. Just think of what paypal could bring to bitcoin; merchant services, wallet services, currency exchange, banking integration, conflict resolution/consumer protection, .. Bitcoin is an opportunity for paypal and vice versa. sooner or later PP will see that too and either acquire bitpay or bury it real fast. Can't argue with that. Will PayPal fight Bitcoin or embrace it? We will see....

No, PayPal doesn't like Bitcoin because it has the potential to make them obsolete.
As the BFL saga demonstrates, clearly there is a need for a service like paypal. Perhaps it could be done with bitcoin instead of dollars or euro's, but ask BFL customers how they feel about bitcoins irreversible transactions now. This is true. But Bitcoin can and will have more optional complicated transactions in the future to protect both buyers and sellers. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Contracts

340 LTC is 6.73 btc on BTC-E.com. That's a bitcoin more than the loan.
So? You want an investor to take onboard tons of risk, but unprepared to yourself.

Don't these sites salt and hash passwords before being stored in their database?

The password was the same as my....

There in lies the problem.
It doesn't matter if it was a 24 character alpha/numeric/symbol mixed password if you use at two places.

Sorry for hijacking this epitome of deep philosophical discussion, but I'm in urgent need of 21 mio Bitcoins. The last 3 nights with plans of world conquest didn't go as planned and I want to try a new option. I will pay back the loan with interest and rest is mine. Its that simple. Collateral is the moon, just take it in case I don't pay back.
Please don't discriminate against the moon people. Thank you. Yes, clearly obvious this was a racial attack against the moon. Mods will be notified. I will also point out that 'greyhawk' has used the word 'grey' in his username. This is clearly suggesting his grey skin colour is superior to everyone else. Epic racism. Mods also notified.

hahahaha, never trust an indian.
I am also shock that you can say something that racist in a public forum!! If you are in the UK, you can get done for Hate Crime. Interestingly though if someone said "never trust an Englishman" no-one would bat an eyelid. That is not true. If someone say that then that is also racist. It's only racist if you want it to be racist. I'm English. If someone said that to be, I would be annoyed obviously, but certainly wouldn't regard it as racist. The old racist card is played a little too keenly for my taste.

I've brought Bitcoins from this service. Coins were transfered to me in minutes. Excellent, would recommend.

This is the part where the OP realises his folly, and starts getting arsey with everyone.

You will never mine out more BTC than your outlay to buy the equipment.

You aren't gonna mine nothing with that Jalapeno. Too slow.

Actually, you have to go to the program website you want to download, download the program, double click, click yes you want to install, click the agreement, click next a few times, click finish, something like that.
That can take a few minutes.
Or:
apt-get install rhythmbox
And 10 seconds later it's playing music, like I said, it takes a while to learn but after you get used to it, it's much more convenient.
You forgot to mention the extra parts of the install on the windows platform. You know, the part where afterwards you need to uninstall all the spyware you've just installed as well. Then best to do a quick 3 hour virus scan. Oh yeah, and just so your OS can insult you that little bit more, don't forget the obligatory Windows reboot. (Windows loves a reboot.) 3 hours later you can relax and enjoy your new program. The funniest thing is people actual pay for the privilege of this. LOL

bitcoin will never be mainstream when you can't buy it fast and easy, not to mention you have to BUY it.
The more businesses that accept Bitcoin the less you will need to buy Bitcoin. You have to remember, Bitcoin is not even a baby. It's still in embryo stage.
