See some people have not contacted lawyers before jumping into bitcoin businesses, if you contacted your lawyer before doing business in bitcoin, you would know it was always legal.
It's about the law going forward. Nobody had any certainty about that before. Jesus, you're such a fucking buzzkill ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) tl;dr... bitcoins are legal
Yeah, I've been jumping with joy for the past 10 minutes ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I also see this as a positive development, especially in the long run. When was bitcoins ever illegal? LMAO I was jumping for joy over 2 years ago when I got into bitcoins, cause they were never illegal. They've been a legal gray area since they were created. We've always known that the Government would get into regulating them someday, but nobody knew what form that regulation would take. They could be all but ignored or they could do their level best to squash it like a bug. I believe this is a good sign in that it seems to be pretty light regulation and provides some security - the more official recognition Bitcoin gets, the less likely the Government is to try to crush it. Another two people who never talked to a lawyer before getting into bitcoin, it isn't a buzzkill, if the news was the other way, I be very sad, but we are talking about something that must people already knew. Bitcoins are legal, and if your exchanging a high volume of them get your wallet out and license up. Nothing new here.

No, it would be very difficult to actually change the whole system to work like you said.
To demonstrate how easy it is to do what I'm saying, I spent a few minutes throwing together a tiny php script that responds to all qcl requests with the same bitcoin address: http://qcl.phauna.org/It's not complete. It doesn't let you add new mappings, and doesn't have the FAQ page, but with another few minutes I might be able to redirect those requests to your original site. Even still, this did not take any knowledge of crypto to put together nor was it much of a headache. If I had access to your DNS or web server I could have all your traffic redirecting to whatever bitcoin address I want. The pages for are also hashed and checked upon each load
"hashed and checked" by whom? The System checks it self, but the database is entirely hashed with a crypto-random salt and encrypted based on the short name, this would prove incredibly diffcult to try and change. Now your static page, I can't talk too much about it as it would give away some security things, but it is hash by the system upon SSH upload of site, and I use keyfiles to login into the SSH so it always knows it is it me. That hash is placed in memory, never touching the hard drive. This is then checked upon each loading with a special program that I have written. Maybe so, and maybe all that fancy crypto you're using is doing something other than giving you a headache. But what it's not doing is stopping a hacker from responding to all queries with whatever bitcoin address he wants. , that hash resides in memory, so this again would be super unlikely. But you still don't trust me, there is an api, do your own querying. But trust me this is the safes shortener their is currently did a lot of research before creating this, it isn't a fly by wire site.
Uh, ok. It really doesn't get too much more secure then this, if I had maybe special hardware to hold the database offline. So yeah. I see you run thewalletlist.com, with a guy whose site was hacked. Can you talk about your security? Do you have a verifiable database like my system? I wasn't trying to get personal here, sorry if I've made you upset. As for thewalletlist.com, we don't use any "verifiable database" or fancy internal crypto for our system, because as I've just demonstrated, it wouldn't matter if we got hacked. What we do employ, however, is SSL which will at least notify users that something is awry if someone hijacks our DNS. There are probably a few other security practices we could employ to harden and alert against someone attacking our server, but as this is an experimental idea and we only have a handful of users, it's hard to justify pouring a lot of work into it until we get a little validation from the marketplace that it's a useful service. Very well done, except you don't think people would notice that it only showing a different address after they click submit? That is your flaw, after the submit I see it is a different address, then what is submitted, so at that point I wouldn't give the link out. For DNS hijacking, I employ some security measures but now we are talking about going to great lengths to take over a site, that is probably not worth that. The cyptro isn't giving me a headache it is giving me the ability to not be trusted which is what bitcoin is all about. I am not upset, I love debating security. I just thought it was funny that you employ no security and have someone that had a site hacked and coins stolen, helping you. I also like how you think that the "fancy" internal crypto does nothing, hey lets why use "fancy" crypto just store passwords in plaintext... I like that you need validation from the market place to then get the kick in your ass to actually build your site out LOL That isn't how it works, you really should have done research, but now knowing that you don't have a verifiable database, I can't see anyone using it and that is sad.

Just added my business to your site. Is btc price mandatory?
yes it is

I don't see any unconfirmed transactions associated with that address. Of course I am no expert.
Agree all transactions seem to be confirmed.

There is http://qcl.me which uses encryption so you know your address can't be changed by a hacker or third party, and the site is self alerting to these errors. I don't see how crypto can really help you here. If a hacker gains control of the qcl.me server, there's nothing you can do to stop him from answering queries with his own bitcoin address. That is true, but in that case you would notice it, cause after creating your short address url, you would are then sent to the page, unless the hacker wants to do coding, and it would just be more of a headache. The pages for are also hashed and checked upon each load, that hash resides in memory, so this again would be super unlikely. But you still don't trust me, there is an api, do your own querying. But trust me this is the safes shortener their is currently did a lot of research before creating this, it isn't a fly by wire site.

Anytime sending money to a TOR hidden services are like sending your coins into a hole and hoping they end up on the other side. Plus no identifying the owners looking like a scammmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I think if the last post is a bump and they are just saying bump, the forum post shouldn't go thru. I follow a lot of topics on my watch list and sometimes I see just the same thing a wall of bumps. I think bumping should be detected and discard that post. I get it one bump is cool some people miss it, but week after week if people are just bumping and no one is interested clearly this shouldn't be happening.

50/50 sounds fair.
In the business world usually when somebody has an idea it's...
"I have an idea. You code it for $10 an hour and ill get 100% of the profits..."
That is when coders have no experience with business and are free lance and get lucky to pick up a site that actually makes it.

be a good samaritan and help me transfer a home based server to a vps without loosing the webserver, dbserver and ftpserver config ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) a little tweak wont hurt ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) can't you do you a byte for byte transfer to a virtual hd, then have the hosting service load the virtual hd?

I have some side projects lined up but I always want to do something that can really push my skills to the next level, is there anything that would be web based that has to do with bitcoin or the bitcoin world doesn't have? Leave them in the thread, I may pay for your idea if I really like it and think I can turn it into a business.

Your looking for a PHP developer yet linking to a python library? Also don't make a wallet no one will trust you, and plus you need to have a lot of javascript so they can use it only in javascript.

I know there are two other shorteners but I did this as a hobby project and to add to my portfolio. Now your probably asking why use my shortener then any other shortener, lets explore this together. First off if you look at http://payb.tc how do you know how your addresses and short name are stored? I am guessing plain text. Quick Coin Lookup doesn't store any addresses with the short name in plain text. It stores the short names in a hash format, just like a password. It using a hash and a salt, so if a hacker gained control of the database they wouldn't be able to find your short name just by looking at it. Now storing the address took a little more cleverness, it is stored in AES-256 encryption using the short name and salt as the key. So now you know your addresses aren't able to be changed, easily by a hacker, plus the system is self alerting, it can tell if the AES and short name don't match alerting the users, and will not display the decrypted address. Plus the domain name is shorter. Now moving on the next shortener is the Mt Gox http://btc.to. BTC uses first bits which is encouraging spamming the blockchain, that is inappropriate just for the purpose of a shortener. Also it doesn't support litecoins or more than one explorer which QCL does both. Other features, one click copy (Flash and Javascript), Only address shortener that supports link to open address in clients that support it, includes qr code on the page in a big picture, blocks spammy short names to not be confused, only can register one address and short name a day so you can't spam or take all the short names. http://qcl.me/http://qcl.me/faq for more information http://qcl.me/api/ for information about the simple API http://qcl.me/donate or http://qcl.me/gweedo for what an address page looks like I would gladly add other altcoins so leave it in the thread. (Important point, to have altcoins added it must have at least one block explorer and the address should be different from a bitcoin address. Leave any other questions, comments, feature request in the threads...

Every time we find a bug lets not pay Gavin!!!
This is the stupidest thing ever, its amazing how many angry idiots are into Bitcoin and makes me feel uneasy. This community is so aggressive sometimes.
No, Gavin is working on Bitcoin and this gives Bitcoin value! All the money everyone makes from Bitcoin is because of the developers first and miners second. We need the client for the network and set out the rules for the system as a whole.
Satoshi and Gavin and all the other developers have given you Bitcoin and all the wealth that has brought you. Stop being so selfish. Gavin is being paid to work all the time on Bitcoin and thus work on making our investment in this network that more valuable.
The lynch mob around every corner is boring and childish. If you want to help then test and code and help out instead of being a armchair warrior.
/rant
WOW you need to go read about economics, cause I am pretty sure Gavin working on bitcoin isn't what gives it value. Otherwise when that bug hit we be at zero. Satoshi and Gavin didn't bring me wealth. Satoshi created software that I am using to my advantage and I created my own wealth. Also if it wasn't for people like me pushing it on to people, contacting companies everyday to spread the word, it be at zero, so people like me give it value cause I use it. Gavin is being paid cause whined enough to get paid. I am starting to think the only reason the foundation was created was so he can get paid. Also why should I do the work that someone gets paid to do? If you think it is childish then that is clearly your opinion, I think hobbyist don't have a say anymore.
