Nice thread. Scams and frauds are common in the world, they do not happen only in bitcoin! Billions and billions are scammed every year

Last thing I heard was it took weeks to transfer 1000.00 dwolla, weeks for SEPA transfers.. When did you start processing INSTANT 40K USD withdrawals? 

Very good point. 
This +1. Since when is MT.Gox so efficient?
+1 from me too, it's a very interesting question

Yup, fee sent with that transaction, it has already some confirmations.

Thank you for the service!

Trying to buy Deus Ex Human Revolution now, i hope there won't be any problem with the fact that the offer will end in 4 hours
Edit: BTC sent, let's hope
Edit2: Game received and added to my Steam account! In less than half a hour, perfect service!

Thread jacking: Why are paypal trying to kill themselves with dropping so many sites?

They must be aware of BTC, yet they push users towards it.

They are being "persuaded" by MPAA/RIAA probably.

How about "I'll switch to ASIC when it's not speculative vaporware".
This is probably what i'm going to do

If ASICs are real then it won't be a choice, either you get one or you are better don't mine (so this survey is a bit useless, if you will really be able to get 40GH/s for 1300$ then mining with gpu or fpga will be useless) but paying now for something wich doesn't exist doesn't convince me..

If he accepts Bitcoin it would be a very good news

When we asked Siemion about the possibility of inadvertently receiving or downloading a virus, he stressed that the possibility is extraordinarily low, but not impossible.

Be afraid

Like Siemion, Milan Cirkovic also believes that the risk of acquiring something nasty from an ETI is very real.
Getting computer virus via radiotelescope, form outer space? Damn...
Only if you use apple computers!

First of all...why be involved in SETI in the first place??? I sure as hell don't want any aliens coming to this world. For all we know, they will be hostile and will enslave us or kill us all the while they would have just left us alone if we hadn't been beaming these constant radio signals at them taunting them and daring them to come to our planet to fuck with us.

So if the aliens ever do come down to enslave humanity, or turn the planet into a giant human meat farm, we can thank these people for inviting the aliens into our life

So much fail.

Actually they are listening to signals and if bad aliens are coming to invade us, they will detect them. And give us a chance to fight.

The funny thing is that the project GPUGRID has a sub-project called Donate@Home that is mining to donate money to the project. So while the SETI guys spam idiocies about bitcoin, another project, with more clever people, use it to gain money and donations for the project

Quote
I'm still all in for a BOINC bitcoin mining project that bundles everything that's needed to mine on P2Pool for example, but that's something different and would just use the BOINC client. The only difference would be that it would be easier to schedule some other projects on your mining farm as well.
   
It exists, Donate@Home http://donateathome.org/
19b62wRL6hGEWa1bLbkdjaiWvZm1C56XuL is their address
2999  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: [Poll]Will you be switching to ASIC? on: July 09, 2012, 01:25:28 PM
Ahahahah, this is bullshit.

While I respect your opinion, I think you're dead wrong.
If BFL will really deliver, then ASIC mining will be much more easy for a casual miner. Just buy a Jalapeno or a Single SC, plug it and it's done, it will mine. Nothing to mess about. Plug and mine.

Now you need to get a decent setup if you want to mine efficiently, so a decent GPU, right drivers and so on

A thread speaking about Bitcoin in the SETI@home forum

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=68683

let's quote some reply

Quote
A pyramid scheme isn't a pyramid scheme until it comes crumbling to the ground... then everyone goes, "Oh! It was a pyramid scheme"Smiley

Stay away!

Quote
I'm sorry, but I can't see for the life of me (or what's left of it) the point behind Bitcoin Mining.

Cheers.

Quote

Yep & a famous old quote comes to mind...

"A fool & his money is soon parted"

Quote
Bitcoin mining is a joke of a pyramid scheme, where even the original one or two probably won't ever have any real money to speak of.

If you want to spend your electricity and computers time on something, may I recommend sticking with DC projects that serve a purpose.

And, at NO point in bitcoin history, (not since before the money split the first time), has there been any way to profit. The electric itself costs more money that the money it produces, and once you factor in hardware...
well you get the point.

Quote
And not to mention all the cheating that is going on.

It's just one big scam, you can't make money out of nothing...

So long for the "clever people" doing SETI  Cheesy
