Presumably, Satoshi used tor to post on this forum. Otherwise his anonymity would....well not exist.

I find it annoying how we have to pay to make use of this forum using tor, especially given what has led us here.

You only have to pay if you register an account from an IP address that was used to register a shitload of accounts.

If you register the account from a 'clean' IP you can then connect through TOR and use the forums without any problem.

That opens another set of problems: You would have to either find a "clean" TOR exit node (as far as I understand), or register through a clearnet public IP, otherwise your privacy would still be compromised Smiley

Dude, there are like a ton of free proxies and VPNs out there.

The problem is not with TOR in particular, just the IP address was used a lot for new accounts, you can register through some free proxy and end up with the account blocked because it was already used a lot.

And you can register with your IP, your privacy isn't compromised, it's just a number.

If you don't want to spend your money gambling stay away from gambling, it's not an investment, it's a game of chance.

ZeroHedge?

David Icke?

Those are your sources of information?!

Plus, a limit for cash transactions is not capital controls, your little anecdote also not credible information....

Well judge the fact's not the person. I know Icke has some unusual theories, but his theories about the economy are certainly right.

Zerohedge might be a bit sensational, but it's also factual and has sound info.

And my anecdote, weather you believe or not, you will find out soon.

See most people don't recognize that the boat is sinking until your feet get's wet, but by then it's too late and you deserve the consequences of not being prepared Wink

Like many people ridiculed that the Titanic cannot sink, and yet it did. I bet many people questioned it's sinking while it was half underwater, that's the level of delusion nowadays when we talk about economics.

And it's always the fool now that get's rich in the end, and the genius now will lose all his money soon Smiley

Enjoy your new riches then, I prefer not to waste my time with crackpots and tabloids.

■In France and Italy they already start doing capital controls.

Where did you get this information?

In Italy i guess it's not formally announced yet, however I had an aqaintance who has a factory in Italy and tried to wire transfer 250.000€ back to Switzerland and the bank wouldn't let him, they now started an investigation on him, which will last atleast 6 months (althougn he is a nice guy , and not involved in anything dirty, so this investigation is only a "facade" , they disguised CAPITAL CONTROL into some bogus AML investigation  Tongue)

The EU zone is in deep shit now, they want to freeze all money inside it and then loot it all after the boat sinks Smiley

O Pirate Bay já está bloqueado?

Yep; já para aí há 2 semanas ou assim, acho eu:

Code:
A página a que pretende aceder encontra-se bloqueada na sequência do cumprimento de ordem judicial.

Em todo o caso, não é nada que o Tor Browser não consiga resolver, e sem dar trabalho extra nenhum. Smiley

Ok, então para contornar o bloqueio basta usar outros servidores de DNS como por exemplo os da Google ou o OpenDNS.

2993  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Multi-signature: what it is and a list of services on: March 29, 2015, 03:03:32 AM
can u explain more about this multi-signature ?
is it about 2 signature campain or more in our signature profile ? so we can earn much ?
and what is the website about ?

Multi-signature addresses

Addresses can be created that require a combination of multiple private keys. Since these take advantage of newer features, they begin with the newer prefix of 3 instead of the older 1. These can be thought of as the equivalent of writing a check to two parties - "pay to the order of somebody AND somebody else" - where both parties must endorse the check in order to receive the funds.

The actual requirement (number of private keys needed, their corresponding public keys, etc.) that must be satisfied to spend the funds is decided in advance by the person generating this type of address, and once an address is created, the requirement cannot be changed without generating a new address.

I've sold my havelock shares and have attempted to withdraw from havelock. The withdrawal is still pending after 8 hours. I'm not sure if havelock just isn't processing now and has given up or what?

You may have to wait till Monday, I don't think they work weekends.

You can find a few browser extensions that can do that.

Well, regulation isn't coming to bitcoin, businesses like exchanges now have proper regulation, like they should, they didn't invent a new thing, currency exchanges exist for long time and they have regulation to comply with, there's no good reason bitcoin exchanges to be exempt from it.

This is already into law in my country, for some time now.

This is one of those things that should come from common sense, but I guess most people lack even that, perhaps laws like this help shape the new generations into better humans.
3000  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is there a service that converts Credit Card payments to bicoins on: March 28, 2015, 05:35:53 PM
Sorry hang on one sec. I've worked in retail for more than 20 years, and this happens every day. Whose details is it you think are recorded?? The person owning the card's details go through the system, yes, and that can be verified, but the person with the stolen card details could be anyone. They only have to have the card number (and PIN with retail purchases). Do you seriously think that thieves are going to let themselves be traced??? Yes, the stupid ones get caught, but I can tell you 50 examples from where I worked alone where they got away with it.


First, they show their face.

If you plan to make a living out of this you need to shop a lot, eventually you get caught.

Plus you need the real card, if you use cloned ones, the people behind the counter would get suspicious, online there's no such problem.

If you do this once or twice in different locations far from where you live it's fine but you simply cannot scale without getting caught.

Tripe.

A few things you need to know....

1) Retail workers don't even SEE the damn face. It's a blob. They put the card in the machine, they are authorised, they leave. Don't count on a retail worker to describe someone. They see hundreds of people per day, and it kinda blends. Don't count on cameras either, because either (a) the shop hasnt any (more common than you think) or (b) the local cops don't know the person, which means it ends up in "haven't a clue" pergatory.

2) Suspicion from retail workers? LOL, give me a break. Are you aware that retail workers are among the most jaded members of the service industry? Even if they DO somehow spot a clone....what next? They call the cops, AFTER the card has been OKed, and....well, see point 1.

3) For online purchases....do you KNOW how easy it is to set up delivery addresses? Seriously? Any idiot can google in 2 mins flat how to NOT get caught buying items online with a stolen card. Again, I reiterate, the ones who get caught are the morons.

Credit card companies build the chance of fraud into their transaction/exchange cost. And the public accept that. So why not a card->BTC->card company which operates the same way??

Makes no sense this isn't already a thing. And on the other hand, makes alot of sense that Btc isn't a mainstream yet.

If you tried to scale it like that you will get caught.


if you don't want to get caught and make a lot of money, you withdraw cash at a ATM, just be careful with cameras.
