Unfortunately I am not a student at this college but an employee.
Oh, I though you were a student at the IT dep. Well, that's a different question then. From my experience, I didn't have much success convincing people that bitcoin is great but they are convinced that it's an interesting technology nonetheless. I had to calculate how much bandwidth and hardware the node would use and then pointed our IT guy to a server with spare processing power. He thought that the idea of having a piece of software that relays financial transactions in our class was funny so he let me do it anyway despite the fact that he doesn't seem to think BTC is very viable. |

I hosted a BTC node in my school for a while but I had to limit its resources so it wouldn't cripple other software running on the hardware at rush hours. It got tiresome with all those stress test causing it to crash almost daily so I shut it down. All I had to do to convince my professors was to explain bitcoin's capabilities and how it's interesting technology helps solve certain problems other ungoverned internet currencies could not. If your professor is open minded and able to understand the role of bitcoin nodes he might let you do it as well.
Do your professors have experience with open source? A good point you could bring up is the fact that the code for bitcoin nodes has been reviewed by thousands of people. It's good at doing it's job while actively being checked for bugs by many experienced developers. But if your request is still denied then no biggie, your lessons are more important to you anyway.

I think the profit line for most of us invested in keywords is going to be 100,000 registered users.
Is this serious? If it is, I hope that you're able to realize that you basically made the worst "investment" of your lifetime.  |

The timer has run out, and it doesn't seem like anyone has offered yet. If the offer still stands, though, I can offer 0.015.
Hmm, the price moved down since I started the auction. I'll lock this topic as the auction is now over with no bids as you said. If you have a better offer free to PM me. |

Classic has been losing reliability and credibility, as to my knowledge, the development has been quite stagnant
There may be more development in secret. Rather than having public activity on github they seem to have mostly done code dumps with their initial patches. It certainly seems more dead than even XT did. I agree that it's shady but I'm curious, would you change your mind if the code was released and it was good? Or does it come down to trust? |

Theymos was ~18 when he he created the first block explorer, Peter Todd was 16 when he was discussing p2p payments with Hal Finny. I'm starting to believe that bitcoin was created by a gang of teenagers and just got out of hand in the process.  "Okay, hear me out! Here's the plan to take control of the world's money supply from them white banker dudes. First, we create this Japanese dude..." Japanese are stereotypically portrayed as intelligent. Plus it's a good scapegoat if someone comes banging on your door asking you if you're the creator of bitcoin and owner of millions of dollars worth of it. |

Taking it step by step: As reported by badbear, mailmansDOGE is an alt of puzzel.me Both accounts have negative trust but you could have them in the list anyway.
Is there a thread regarding the connection or any sort of proof I could link to? Stellar69 account was used to steal mailmansDOGE, puzzel.me bumped the thread he crated trying to sell the account as soon as he got it. |

I'd say that the launch was distasteful.
