Für mich klang das eher nach blabla, besonders der Teil mit Gesellschaft verändern und dass seiner Meinung nach BTC noch mind. um das 40fache wachsen werden. Er kann sich gut artikulieren, das konnte Bruce Wagner aber auch...

3k more now and the average is at below 220%. Maybe VIR is counted as 0? Even then these averages seem weird to me.

Do need! This does only mean that transactions fulfilling certain criteria (e.g. dust or containing a certain address) are not getting PROCESSED or RELAYED, not that they cannot be included into blocks.

This solves client side issues, like too high IO from transaction verification. It does not mean that there is any way for non miners to choose what gets into blocks. That would only work if miners only connect to nodes that filter a certain transaction. Even then the person wanting to include the transaction could just send it directly to the miner.

If you care to read your quoted article, it is about metal ions, not metal colloids... Also you can read the linked article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_uses_of_silver
Yes, your solution (especially if made through electrolysis) is likely containing ions - and I'm very interested how your water resistance meter actually measures anything beyond ions (e.g. silver nanoparticles)

By the way TECSHARE already tried to sell overpriced water for Bitcoin some time ago, so no, you're not the first one to do so.

Please post the exact type of the Hanna TDS meter, the certificate for your calibration solution, a video of calibration + measurement of actual solution without cuts, the exact type/brand of water you use (and certificates of these) as well as the silver. Also of interest might be the conditions under which this solution is produced - how do you keep your bottles sterile for example, how do you ensure the claims in your OP concerning the special circumstances under which this stuff is being produced (what are "no other" sources of electricity for example and how do you guarantee to have 0 electric fields during the preparation)?

Also you seem to like to insert empty lines.

Weniger Swag, mehr Internet!

Welchen Client verwendest du? Fehlermeldungen? Schon mal aus- und wieder eingeschaltet?

Naja, Optionen auf seltsame "Aktien" (eher Anteile an Miningrigs oder ähnliches mit historisch wahnsinnig hoher Betrugsrate) die schon so kaum Liquidität haben sind jetzt nicht sooo der Bringer meiner Meinung nach.

Rein von den Optionen selber hat man ja noch nichts, idealerweise nutzt man sie ja auch (gewinnbringend) - dazu muss man aber erstmal überhaupt auf der Plattform sein, falls gerade ein interessantes Angebot gepostet wird...

Ah, seeing JoelKatz reminds me... any plans on also acting as a Ripple gateway, similar to BitStamp?

Gonna be on http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/ again?

I tried logging in with my old account, but it seems you started anew...

As I don't plan on exchanging a few thousand USD anytime soon I guess I can just watch you from afar and wish you the best.

Leveraged trading cheat sheet:

I have	I believe the price in USD goes	I want to earn	I should do the following:
BTC	UP UP UP	BTC	Borrow USD (you need some USD to do that!), buy BTC now (you think they are cheap!), after the price goes up you sell enough BTC for USD to settle the loan + interest, keep remaining BTC
BTC	UP UP UP	USD	Borrow USD (you need some USD to do that!), buy BTC now (you think they are cheap!), after the price goes up sell all the BTC you bought for USD to settle the loan + interest, keep remaining USD
BTC	DOWN DOWN DOWN	BTC	Borrow more BTC, sell them for USD now (you think they are overpriced!), after the price goes down, you buy the BTC back with the USD you gained, pay back the loan + interest, keep remaining BTC
BTC	DOWN DOWN DOWN	USD	Borrow more BTC, sell them for USD now (you think they are overpriced!), after the price goes down, you buy just enough BTC back with the USD you gained, pay back the loan + interest, keep remaining USD
USD	UP UP UP	BTC	Borrow more USD, buy BTC now (you think they are cheap!), after the price goes up you sell enough BTC for USD to settle the loan + interest, keep remaining BTC
USD	UP UP UP	USD	Borrow more USD, buy BTC now (you think they are cheap!), after the price goes up sell all the BTC you bought for USD to settle the loan + interest, keep remaining USD
USD	DOWN DOWN DOWN	BTC	Borrow BTC (you need some BTC to do that!), sell them for USD now (you think they are overpriced!), after the price goes down, you buy the BTC back with the USD you gained, pay back the loan + interest, keep remaining BTC
USD	DOWN DOWN DOWN	USD	Borrow BTC (you need some BTC to do that!), sell them for USD now (you think they are overpriced!), after the price goes down, you buy just enough BTC back with the USD you gained, pay back the loan + interest, keep remaining USD

The problem is that if you have 0 USD but want to borrow USD, you need to have at least a few USD to start with - since the market might move in the other direction, you need to be able to pay the interest and buy back the USD or BTC you borrowed at a loss. Same way with having no BTC and wanting to borrow them. There is no way to transfer funds between accounts on Bitfinex (yet?), so the easiest/fastest way to get a balance on both sides would be to either use MtGox codes (USD codes will go away soon!) or just transfer BTC on Bitfinex and trade them for a few USD, the fees are lower than a lot of other exchanges anyways. In the future bank transfers might also work, though BTC+trade probably beats these in speed by a magnitude.

If you want to lend out funds, you also see when you'll make profits: People will borrow your USD if they think that 1 BTC will be worth more USD than now in the future and they will borrow your BTC if they think prices will fall. Believing prices rise is also called "bullish", believing prices go down "bearish".

PS: Someone seems to just have borrowed ~400 BTC (mine amongst them), so I'm happy.

An maybe easier option would be to just offer parimutel betting on BTCUSD price slots.

Predicting the future in a market that acts highly irrational from time to time, consists of only a single main player (MtGox) which has failed/been hacked several times in the past and still breaks under high load recently means you either have to keep a high house edge or risk a lot.

I agree that something like "no accounts required to bet" would probably be one of the main reasons for people to use your platform.

Yes, even trusting that ASICMINER shares will be tradeable or worth anything in 3 years from now is already quite a stretch...

Why not someone studying spanish at a dutch university?

There is a nice saying in my country:
"Billions of flies can't be wrong - eat more shit!"

I'm not claiming that something that contains less silver than sea water or a lot of the food I eat daily is dangerous.
I am however claiming the following (and the burden of proof is upon the OP as the producer, not me as a potential consumer):
* The liquid being sold is being produced in an potentially unhygienic environment with potentially contaminated ingredients.
* The liquid being sold does NOT contain 10 ppm Ag particles. It also does not contain the amount of silver ppm that the "hana" (actually it's "Hanna instruments") meter reports, if the OP even posesses such a device...

In regards to "it's a free market and the people WANT to buy it" - people like you are the exact reason why free markets can and will never work.

Oh, and while ingesting 10 ppm silver in distilled water in moderation might not have adverse effects (just like homeopathics), there are no positive effects beyond placebo either. The harm would probably rather come from neglecting proper treatments (e.g. consuming colloidal silver instead of taking antibiotics) rather than the substance itself.

Yeah, lending out BTC for the last 5 days was not really a big thing at all (I still have a 12% loan open with some of my coins that nets me at least a small profit).

USD on the other hand are soaring atm. and even though it sometimes takes longer than I'd like to lend them out again, they return more than I hoped for (after 4 days 1.2% increase on deposit... ). Having USD and BTC on the platform I hope that I'll balance out bull and bear markets, I can live with profits in either currency anyways.

I had some Ruby error messages when logging in via 2FA by the way, but after trying a second time, they were not really reproducible and I logged in just fine.

Other than that (I tend to critizise more than praise) I really have to say that the experience so far was really nice!
Oh, and I have quite a few positions still up for grabs - go for it, trade and take my money, damnit!

Ich kann da nur den Tipp geben sich auch in SLL (Lindendollar) Trading einzulesen, dürfte in etwa ähnlich rechtlich liegen und vielleicht besser dokumentiert sein.

Probably this would require some weird/special hardware, but what about display ports (VGA/HDMI/DP/...)? On the other hand I guess a standard SmartCard should be OK for a lot of things already - my government ID (that can even be activated for SIM cards on mobile phones) is good enough for my bank to autorize transfers of up to 50k EUR.

Other than that RFID/NFC are other potential interfaces to bridge an air gap - though I like the ideas with light (flicker codes/QR codes + webcam) and sound (similar to credit card microphone jack readers) the most. The more specialized/weird hardware (already smartcard readers are by far not common household items!) is used, the fewer people will actually use it and use a far less secure method instead.

Maybe even just encoding transactions in a port-knocking sequence over LAN could be enough, no need to accept a single packet, just listen to the ports accessed. The code interpreting this needs to be watertight though, and one still risks that the OS itself is somehow able to accept a malicious packet.

Well, some food (for example fish) contains ~10 ppm silver as well - you could just eat a piece of Sushi to ingest exactly the same amount of Ag.

Also calling it some ceremonial item or other bullsh*tting around does not change the claim that's made just a few lines later in that picture: That Ag ions and colloidal Ag (which are measured both by some calibrated instrument...?!) magically magnetically are attracting virii.
Probably one really has to do some ceremony before that for it to occur...

Also why does it cost ~0.6 BTC to produce 750ml of something that contains about as much silver as sea water? Who actually produces that stuff? My suspicion is that this is done (under maybe questionable hygienic conditions - "It is self sterilizing anyways!!!") via some homebrew method by the OP him-/herself.

Mit BIP32 braucht man auch nur einen Key um quasi beliebig viele einmalige Addressen zu generieren, vermutlich besser als manuell immer wieder welche "nachzuladen" oder Addressen zu recyclen.

Ich frage mich da ja auch, wie man die Handelbarkeit der Aktien umsetzen will/soll. Muss ich mich als Investor der AG gegenüber ausweisen oder kann ich den Schein auch einfach wem in Nordkorea weiterverkaufen?

Auch diverse Pflichten (Prospekt, Berichte) dürften bei einer 1-Mann AG doch eventuell zu Problemen führen. Ist "AG" wirklich das ideale Konzept für sowas?

I actually earn more than 0.02 BTC per week per 0.8 BTC (or how high are ASICMINER trading now? If they already trade higher, there are even worse returns...) investment in a completely different sector... and rising difficulty/dividend halving doesn't affect me there.

Anyways, I still think for the risk involved ASICMINER is rather overvalued than anything else - all the time if mining is profitable people gather round to praise mining contracts, then if the price comes down again and the going gets rough suddenly there's no liquidity, they are called "turds" and whatnot... If you really think ASICMINER will pay even close to 5.2 BTC in dividends over the next 10 years in total, you're going to have a bad time in my opinion.
