Honestly,
We don't want a token from them in return, all we need is a success or failure code to know it's a valid user/pass combo. Would gladly be willing to meet with and sign an agreement with whoever is in charge of Bitcoin forum.
Any information on who I could contact would be greatly appreciated as well.
Thank you again.

You could do what you are contemplating with the method I suggested. You could do this without any agreement or code or anything from the BitcoinTalk.org team using only the publicly available information freely divulged by its users, and without BitcoinTalk implementing any change whatsoever. You can progress this immediately with nothing you don't already have. My suggestion also allows your system to remain uncompromised by any security issues which may or may not exist in the BitcoinTalk forum. If you insist on barking up the OAuth tree, you can directly harass the folks in charge with offers of Agreements and Contracts by clicking on that "Donate" link up there and reading enough of that page to see who has the keys to cage, or by a quick reddit search. (Hint: Its not really Thermos) Or failing that, sort the members list by date registered and see if you find anything interesting. But now that you've given me the idea this is somehow desirable, I (or someone with more copious spare time) may code this together and sell it to you instead.  Why not simply offer a bounty? |

You might consider limiting this to individual option.
For example, having messages signed by the address used in their profile or something like that.
This ^^^ It can be semi-automated anyway. It provides an authoritative identity validation which accomplishes your goal in part. You can pull the userlist of BitcoinTalk already and reserve those usernames pending this sort of authorization for the other part. And it avoids the SSO issues. also the bitcointalk forum is not using OAuth so that avenue is not open anyhow. |

For example, having messages signed by the address used in their profile or something like that. Single Sign-on and shared userid is not an advantage to security. Generally it is the opposite of that.
The only thing we are looking for is integration. Meaning when users sign into our site, it will sign them into bitcointalk.org. Our end will have nothing to do with it. Security will not change. It works just like the FB integration that you find in most forums/websites no a days. In other words, a user on our site would click "Comment" and a box would pop up and say, "Would you like to log in using your bitcointalk.org ID ?" I think I understand you correctly. You have described a change in security. If one is sending their credentials to a place other than the custodian of those credentials. Facebook uses Oauth for single sign-on, which is a security degradation. http://hueniverse.com/2012/07/oauth-2-0-and-the-road-to-hell/ |

My 401K will be a part of the inflow of 401K money into the Winklevoss BCT. I doubt the trust will drive prices lower. Money that can already buy that wants to buy BTC will have done so. Money that currently can not buy BTC that wants to buy it may. If that money overflows the trust holdings, the trust may buy and so may drive the price higher.
People that want BTC to USE IT won't be buying trust shares, it is for stagnant money, like 401Ks and pension trusts and such.

yet somehow he's gone astray on this gold thing. he's slowly giving way, much to his credit.  i think what he, and most others, are missing is the speed and rapidity of the Bitcoin phenomenon. also, this fuzziness of supply with gold is a major problem. edit: for evidence of this, look at his sig. he grossly undersestimated the speed with which those price predictions would be achieved. he's not the only one. Those were tail ends of the time ranges that had been calculated - I just like being progressively conservative  Gold is behaving almost entirely as expected, only at a greater magnitude. It's a process... And to keep it on the record from August 11th, 2013: Meanwhile, the gold-silver ratio is approaching 62. A sustained move below that level will strongly suggest a silver-led rally. For that matter, I'm also expecting USD$1,000+ Bitcoin within a year.
That may be the point where all out war on Bitcoin is unleashed. While the price might not fade, persecution could rise. The exante BitcoinFund prediction is 500. They have a pod of whales swimming in their pond. |

Excellent, this correction is damn healthy. The longer it hovers around 200, the better.
+1 The price curve was starting to bend up further. The exuberance gets checked and becomes a bit more rational exuberance rather than that other kind. |

Oh for fucks sake you idiot, that's it. You already posted that unfounded crap. I can accept your views (I don't agree with them, but I respect them), but the way you present them here is not worthy of a human being. You're getting on everyones nerves. How about going back into your parrot cage for a day two and cool down a bit? ignore +1 Why are you so mad bro ? Doubt he will answer as you are probably ignored, but since you have difficulty understanding meaning maybe I can help make it plain this once. He is granting you some small measure of success in your ongoing goal of spreading hate for Ripple and yourself. |

On Gox yes, but IMO China got so high too fast and with high volume. The higher the volume, the shorter time the EW sub-sub-waves take.
I don't know what happens if one exchange is ready to start capitulation and others not (they have more time left).
On Gox there should be time for another bump up, but to me it looks like China has run out of steam.
It may go up again for one more time, and if resistance will be low it can reach a bit higher price, but that's all IMO. We'll see tomorrow.
will be interesting to see what happens when china wakes up tomorrow. china is clearly leading this bull run. Good call. Very much yes, I suspect that the contagion will also spread there. China is just getting started and they don't have the same investment options as many other regions so this will be especially attractive to them. Consider their over-invested housing market in a demographic bubble that looks poised to lose population of 2-300M over the next generation and this bitcoin stuff is a dream come true for them. Probably also fashionable. Add in that the US feds can't crack open DPR's private stash and we will have the renminbi tide coming in. |

Your 2000 (Type 6) Liberty Dollar is one of the early "Small E" pieces.
I can offer you a collector's special of a trade for a 1999 (type 3), or alternatively one each Bitcoin Specie and New Liberty Dollar proof strike?

the present value should already contain all discounted future value, which is anticipated by market participants. although one could make an argument that market participants are growing temporarily driving up the price.
Inflation adjusted interest rates are veering negative in unbacked currencies that may also default. The question of the revaluation of discounted future value seems that it is being answered by the market in the moment. Oh...And tulips are pretty too. |

 China can blow this bubble pretty big. We have seen nothing yet. If even a little of the air in their housing bubble looks to find its way into Bitcoin, then this is just the froth. |

China can blow a pretty big bubble. They have no way to invest outside the country, are pretty much limited to property and a few financial services. Property is already way overbought and funds the regional provincial governments. There are some 60 million speculative bought and unoccupied houses in China. http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=50142079nBusiness districts and skyscrapers... If even a little of the air in that bubble moves into Bitcoin, it is going to be something pretty amazing ahead. We have seen nothing like this. |

Wish I had USD on Bitstamp... it is so far behind BTCChina that arbitrage will happen at any moment. The price could spike to $190 in a second.
How does one easily move money back from China to EUR/US? Not. It is easy, all you have to do is stretch the definition of "easy" to include buying a bunch of stuff that can be exported and sold in US/EU. |

Normally I try to stick to discussing the technical parts of Mastercoin but I want to offer my opinion about the whole clone discussion.
We are developing a protocol, we are not developing an investment vehicle. This might not be a popular opinion but in the end we want to build technology that enriches peoples lives by offering features Bitcoin currently lacks like distributed exchanges.
People will be able to clone Mastercoin and there is nothing we can do about that or even want to do about it.
+1 for sanity |

Use Bitcoins, buy gold and silver... Use bitcoins for online transactions, use gold and silver bitcoin specie for point of sale. Keep your account full of bitcoin and your pockets full of bitcoin specie for the off chain and anonymous personal transactions. |

CNY has gone up almost 2% in just the last 60 minutes or so.
China is at 217 USD /BTC  China leading the Bitcoin charge!!!!!!! This is not so surprising.  China is a very wealthy nation, and these are not expensive bitcoins. Later they will be more. |

Update: Coins with private keys included (like Casascius) are now available as an option on the website. For those that ordered them via PM, your orders are shipping out today or tomorrow morning. http://www.titanbtc.com/product/titan-one/I don't recommend these if you intend to resell due to the ease of counterfeiting/hacking, but to each his own. Wait it's easy to fake the hologram or peel it and restick? Is that what you're saying? I'm confused. The casascius coins, to my knowledge, are pretty good at preventing that sort of thing. I might buy a few just for fun - thanks! |

We have received enough interest that we will be offering the gold electroplating on the fine silver as a standard offering going forward. Gold does not have the same toning quality as silver so the QR should not be expected to become increasingly readable with use as it would with the normal .999 fine silver, however for the collectible editions, hallmarked pieces and etc it may be an optional addition. We will be interested in seeing how these hold up over time, I suspect that if subjected to use, it will fade significantly as the gold is VERY thin.
In other news, with the BTC/silver price, it is looking like the 2014 1 ozt is going to be a ONE BITDIME piece after all, and the premium will be discounted unless it heads back down.

I bought one. Received confirmation of shipment. Waiting for delivery...
I just bought as well. The price is far less than an hour of Lawyer time. Well, I think I got the better end of this deal. That's very valuable info. I only hope it is never necessary.
I'll definitely be hiring YOU if I have to defend our business model.
Will work for bitcoin, justice, and liberty. |
