Department of Homeland Security is about money laundering/terrorism financing/drug trafficking..
Call me alarmist but, once the big players and Vc's read the charges against gox, realizing that the largest btc exchanger which hold all their millions, is now in jeopardy with a US govt agency,i'll let you imagine the continuing slipping of price in the coming days/hours as this bad news is fully digested..

Another poster brought this up, but we may see a large rally here. All those with fiat in gox should convert to BTC and get them to a safe wallet. This would cause a rise (maybe temporary, but still).

Why do you think that?  Maybe the uninformed will do this - but this is only effecting Gox's US based dwolla account.

Confirmed CampBX <> Dwolla still works....for now.

Is this the start of a new term?  You have just been 'GoXxed'

that term already has had its roots for years now.
304  Economy / Speculation / Re: Dwolla can no longer process deposits or withdrawals to MtGox on: May 14, 2013, 08:28:13 PM

i've had a long time Dwolla acct and i've not received any email...
People only got it because they had an outstanding transaction it seems. Do you have one?

I think they are also sending out to people who have recently withdrawn/sent money between Dwolla and Gox within the last 24 hours as well.

Let them know that The Bitcoin Catalog will give them our full box package for free. (just let me know and we will make arrangement with them if they are interested)

Excellent!  Coinfunder and I have been talking and this will officially be moving forward.  Any ideas, suggestions on websites would be appreciated.

There is a warning for the exchange kraken.com which is currently in beta stage.
It is also very strange that they support Ripple which has also scam warnings.

Did you even bother to read the comments?

sounds like a scam.  id ask for any type of other proof.  why does he need $500 for shipping?  that just throws up red flags.

... I am chill.  I love your beta site.  I was just offering you to put everyone's worries to rest - which you just did (at least for me).

Payward, Inc. is a Delaware corporation, but there doesn't appear to be any "Payward, Inc." registered in California, either domestically or as a foreign corporation (formed outside of California), as required by California Law, since you are claiming that your company's governing law is California. There is no registration of "Kraken" as a trade name in either California or Delaware.

There is no contact information for this company on the Kraken web site, specifically no address or actual human beings associated with the company.

It appears as though Payward been soliciting investment online in violation of US securities laws (specifically the Securities Act of 1933) since you aren't registered with the SEC. This is also a violation of Delaware’s Securities Act.

Payward is not registered with FinCEN.

Payward is not registered as a Money Transmitter Business in California.

Sorry, I just can't trust a web site that has terms of service that are obviously not in any way reviewed by an attorney:

Governing Law

Any claim relating to Payward, Inc.'s web site shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

General Terms and Conditions applicable to Use of a Web Site.

Yes, that's right, a cut and paste "General Terms and Conditions applicable to Use of a Web Site."

This should be a warning to EVERYONE. Don’t trust a company that blatantly violates multiple laws. This place WILL be shut down sooner or later, it’s only a matter of time.

Anyone know of any good open source scripts that could be tweaked for a pledge website?  I have been googling walkathon pledge software and some kickstarter clones but haven't had much luck.

EDIT: here is an open source kickstarter platform http://selfstarter.us/

EDIT: i just learned about www.coinfunder.com - contacted the creator to see if he would be willing to create another section on the site for this purpose.  there is a feature where people can pledge.

we are launching a second Campaign Type that we refer to as a Pledge.  Under this campaign type, once a pledge is made, it counts immediately toward that project's funding goal amount. The only way a pledge wouldn't count is if the pledge is canceled.  Once a project reaches it's funding goal based on the total of the Pledge Amounts, the project owner is given the ability to enter the Bitcoin address they would like to receive payment at.  Once the project owner does this, the funders are given the ability to submit payment for their pledges.  These payments go directly to the project owner, without going through CoinFunder.com controlled accounts.

I see a lot of posts about how someone just recently emailed X company to start accepting bitcoins. I was wondering if we as a community should start organizing efforts to inform different businesses about bitcoin.

I have seen websites in the past where people pledge X amount of dollars to spend on a company if they did Y. Perhaps we could make a website similar to this where people can vote on different companies to target for the week and pledge X amount of bitcoins if they did. It obviously would be sort of an honor system since I don't think people will want to blindly put their bitcoins into something that isnt a sure thing.

The website could be organized similar to all those political sites where there are clear and convenient buttons to email/tweet/facebook etc said company and perhaps a pre-written script.

Or to avoid a swarm of emails - perhaps a website dedicated to a walk-a-thon type pledging, where users would pledge and once funding got to a certain point an email would be dispatched to the company detailing how much support they have from BTC users.

Hopefully the site could also automate integration of bitpay for them somehow... I don't know just spitballing my drunken ass off here Cheesy  I think this would work best with smaller companies rather than large ones (see amazon, newegg etc).

What do you guys think?

Small sample of businesses I have in mind:


  • Grooveshark:  Grooveshark is an internationally available online music search engine, music streaming service and music recommendation web software with a subscription option for anytime mobile use.
  • Dollar Shave Club:  A subscription based razors for a fraction of the price online store where razors are shipped monthly.
  • Giftly:  Lets users buy personalized online gift certificates to local businesses through their phones. (Commenting on the currect Gyft Bitpay integration would be really good.)
  • Quarterly: Every three months for $25, users get a gift created exclusively for Quarterly by influencers such as reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, Swiss designer Tina Roth Eisenberg and writer Joshua Foer.

314  Economy / Goods / [WTS] Saab 9-3 2001 Needs a Bit of Work [COLORADO] on: May 10, 2013, 12:40:03 AM
Yes, yet another hopeful car selling in BTC.  It's not exotic and it does need some work but I thought i'd give it a go.  Located outside of Denver, CO.  Hoping to get ~2k worth of BTC.

Needs some work estimated at ~$1500 at local mechanic - and a lot of it can probably be done by someone good with cars.

The power steering is leaking. The driver and passenger windows do not work and are currently held up with tape. There is a small plastic piece that broke off that the bottom of where the glass sits on. There is some clear coating peeling off on portions of the exterior (see images). Other than that the engine runs fine and a brand new battery. Willing to take it into a mechanic of your choice and settle on a fair offer. Kelly Blue Book puts the price of this car in extremely poor condition around $2000.

~200K miles
Leather seating
Multi CD






The white stuff is tape residue





315  Economy / Speculation / Re: You can now buy Gift Cards from Gyft with Bitcoin on: May 09, 2013, 06:38:44 PM
To purchase:
at the top of the app do you see the arrow button? click it and go to the third tab and search for your username you created the gyft account with.
then a screen will appear with available giftcards - select the one you want and its pretty self explanatory from there.
316  Economy / Speculation / Re: You can now buy Gift Cards from Gyft with Bitcoin on: May 09, 2013, 05:54:48 PM
just downloaded the app on android - for some reason it only seems like you can add cards purchased from the store.  where do you buy in the app?

BTW: why is this in speculation?
