Transactions other than common addresses are trending upward over the last few weeks.

This is likely a better indicator of real world usage than volume on Mt. Gox.
262  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: More Evidence Paypal (eBay) hates Bitcoin on: July 01, 2013, 04:27:23 PM
Certainly serious if the problem was related to mentioning Bitcoin. But did eBay/Paypal stop the auction because of that? Or is this just some other problem with the buyer?

That said, I have also been running into more bad buyers lately, people who come in and bid on an item, then never pay up. What a pain!

What on earth does this have to do with BTC?
264  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Suing PayPal on: June 17, 2013, 07:56:03 PM
While Paypal richly deserves to be sued for such things, the TOS are pretty clear. Better have the attorney review them. Paypal would likely have a good counter-claim against you.

BTC will need to prove itself first by surviving and becoming a bigger part of the economy. Most of the Nobels, at least in science, are awarded many years after a discovery.
266  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Disintermediation of Society on: June 17, 2013, 07:41:24 PM
Taking exchanges out of the loop also, and having more direct P2P BTC traffic would be dis-intermediation.
267  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: CAMPBX took money out of Dwolla, but nothing credited in CAMPBX? WHERE'S MY $ ? on: June 16, 2013, 12:01:25 AM
Is CAMPBX a legitimate place to be trusting with any amount of money if it is not showing?

They are fairly reliable, though sometimes slow. Another user recently had this issue and it had to do with exceeding a non-verified account limit.

Annoying that it is slow, but I wouldn't panic, you will almost certainly get your money.

Panic when there is a large sell causes significant flash crashes, where prices drop rapidly in 30 mins. It takes longer generally for the price to head back up.

In the long, it will as businesses and infrastructure develop.

The whitepaper is actually a pretty good read to start understanding these things:

What's wrong with a flash drive with the wallet.dat file on it?
271  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will bitcoins become illegal? on: June 15, 2013, 11:41:10 PM
Likely depends on the jurisdiction. In the U.S., I doubt they will ever be outright illegal. Exchanging them for fiat, OTOH...
272  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does Edward Snowden have a bitcoin wallet? on: June 15, 2013, 11:39:09 PM
Who is Eric Snowden?

And how is that pertinent to Edward Snowden, like in the title of the thread?
273  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How To Blast Bitcoin Onto The World Stage on: June 15, 2013, 11:29:26 PM
The QR code would be a use similar to the one where someone used a QR code in a video on YouTube and apparently received 4 BTC or so for the contribution.

But how to get in touch with Snowden to see if he is interested?
274  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is Mt. Gox reimbursing those with funds locked up in the Dwolla seizure? on: June 14, 2013, 10:03:40 PM
I had the impression that some funds in the process of being transferred may have been trapped. But if not, that is great for users.
275  Economy / Service Discussion / Is Mt. Gox reimbursing those with funds locked up in the Dwolla seizure? on: June 14, 2013, 09:44:54 PM
I have no personal experience but assume others do.

Is Mt. Gox refunding funds which were locked up in the Dwolla account seizure. Certainly it seems feasible for them to determine which accounts had funds seized, and it would boost their reputation to take responsibility in this way.

Can any users comment on this?

276  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 2013-06-13 Latest from FinCEN on: June 14, 2013, 09:43:12 PM
Reading this I am still left wondering if an exchange is a money transmitter. Seems like it would be a money services business, but not necessarily a money transmitter.

Looks like this week won't work. We'll try for next week. Anyone interested, please post best dates/times.
278  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is CampBX a ripoff? on: June 12, 2013, 09:46:50 PM
I think CampBX is honest and a reasonable exchange though with lower volume. Their customer service can be a bit frustratingly slow at times though.

Remember they are in the U.S. and actually are licensed now. If you are a U.S. citizen, you could sue them if you had to, so I don't think they are into ripping people off.
279  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Looking to buy bitcoins on: June 12, 2013, 09:41:30 PM
LocalBitcoins is likely the best bet.

Selling BTC with a paypal payment is very risky.
280  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin Transaction Cancellation Options? on: June 12, 2013, 09:31:44 PM
I think if the transaction moving the 2.3 BTC is on the blockchain, then it is gone  Angry
