Why is it that on these forums everytime gets scammed, stolen, or anything related tons of people are saying "ha he should not have trusted XXX or YYY, so it is obviously his fault if he lost his monies" Come on. Thats like saying to a rape victim that she should not dress so sexy / go out alone / etc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victim_blamingAs long as this logic and impunity goes on bitcoin will only be a children playground. For a 1 million scam "in real life" matthew could have been sent in jail for the 5 next years or so. And to me sorry but it is obvious that he would have taken as much as possible in the case he would have won the bet. Actually people should grow up and learn to avoid scams. The "rape thing" is ridicolous, no one is being "raped" here. Almost all scammed ppl fall for scams cause they are GREED and expected to hurr durr become rich 7% week hurr durr, matthew will give me 10.000 btc if i make 1 post in the thread hurr durr.

I thought you couldn't reverse gifts? It wasn't a gift though. The buyer claimed it was a gift, but both the buyer and seller knew that this was a lie. so what? once you send a gift. you can't revers it... i think! Really? It can. They just have to tell pp that the account has been hacked or whatelse If using gift would be safe then why everyone is not using it? Go ahead and try selling bitcoins and have buyer pay you with paypal via gift

"efficiency" means nothing... i didn't even know cgminer had this counter
what matter are khash/s
and you are doing 488khash/s
I don't know if it's ok for the 7970 in litecoin mining, since i am not an expert about that

would like to buy some bitcoins Maybe i'm wrong but from what i read you want to buy bitcoins. Not sell them. So... how exactly do you ship them if you are buying them? I fucked up my original post for real. I want to be able to buy & sell my bitcoins. adamstgBit gave me a really good site to do it tought... I may stick to it. Basically, I want to buy bit coins and sell them when the market increase. Ill probably use the brokering site adamstgBit gave me after all. Looks way easier to deal. Well, same apply for you too. Do not sell bitcoins when the buyer pay you with paypal. You risk that you send the bitcoin and then he chargeback the paypal transaction.

I already have contributed enough to Folding@Home.
Cheers
you can never contribute "enough" to Folding@Home that said, AMD cards suck balls at folding Luckily there are tons of other project that run very well on AMD cards

the buyer can reverse the payment whenever he likes? More or less yes Also trading virtual currencies and things like bitcoin is a bit against paypal rules

or pay by paypal (will mail the bitcoins on paper to the verified paypal address - to make sure I don't get frauded) Scam detected

deepbit pay 167 and mt red 185 why do you prefer being paid 167 instead of 185?

then maybe its a good idea to order a butterfly jalapeno? Yes it's a good idea Is this company trustworth (e.g. will they deliver what they promise?)? I have no idea. They delivered the FPGA but about the ASIC, i can't tell you i'm sure they will deliver... probably yes, but dunno Does anybody know what for a host system (hardware, os) is neccessary to run the jalapeno (or other butterfly asic products)? Any OS wich support an USB

Not with PPS, and it seems you are looking for a pool with PPS
And anyway, if not PPS, high variance doesn't mean lesser earning, there is also the chance to find more blocks in a short amount of time.

lol can I ask where this wisdom comes from?
that's like saying hashrate doesn't matter at all
Don't mistake your hashrate with pool hashrate. The btc you mine depend on your hashrate, the pool hashrate only reduce variance, wich doesn't matter if you choose PPS.

Pool hashrate means nothing Choose a 0% fee pool and maybe one that pays out transaction fees too.

Welcome to the forum but... what problem are you having?

I can prove the address is mine by sending more BTC from that address, but still, obviously this requires the goodwill (and awareness) of the owner of the address: 15ArtCgi3wmpQAAfYx4riaFmo4prJA4VsK
You can prove you own an address by using the nice option of the Bitcoin client. "Receive money"->Sign a message. You can then write a message and sign it with that address. Then you post the whole message and the signature and everyone can check you own the address by checking the signature with the public address.

Here the design is the bitcoin mining. And it is solid, we have been mining for 3 years and more!
The same more or less happened here. First people mined using their GPU, since they already had them. Then they noticed that bitcoin mining is here to stay and specialized and invested in FPGA. Using FPGA imply buying them (and they aren't cheap) and making the bitstream but once you do that, they use much much much less energy than a GPU. So it's more efficient for mining, moar profit!
Then some ppl started to invest into making an ASIC. But not for lower per chip cost. Well, this is a reason, but not the main one. The main ones are speed and efficiency (aka energy used). An ASIC is a chip specialized for mining, you put every transistor as you wish to mine faster as possible. An FPGA is a chip made by someone wich well, can do everything, not only mining, it's much much slower.
ASIC is FAST, very fast. The bfl asic "single" will do 40Gh/s for 1299$. For that price you can get what, a 3Gh/s computer? Or a 1.6Gh/s FPGA.
