Interesting!
EDIT: How does it solve the 51% attack problem though?

I would like to extend a hefty "Fuck you" to Peter Todd.
This is a market failure plain and simple, not a Bitcoin failure. This will be resolved in due time, sans hard fork.
What would you do in his place? Personally I do not judge him for selling 50% of his coins. I would have done the same because I have mouths to feed and bills to pay. I will not sit around hoping that the major player will behave. Even though I took a gamble in investing in Bitcoin, that is a gamble that I am not willing to take. |

I'd like to see the BTC 200 from Eligius and 300 from Blockwitholder put in escrow and a trusted 3rd party audit carried out.
I'd rather this was done than some witch hunt / trial by media.
Agreed! I was just about to move my TH's to Eligius, but seeing this information has me a bit worried about doing so. I was afraid some folks with large hashing power would think so... but the point to remember is that if you're not trying to do anything evil, you have nothing to worry about... especially if you begin solving blocks as expected etc... so the short comment is that go ahead please, add to the pool. Large hashing power will always be very carefully on selecting pools. The eligius pool is now a "clean" one with a "potential" tiny black corner, and others 3 big is totally clean like the sky until now.If you own 1000+T, which one will you choose? What does Bruce mean by that? |

Hi R4v37, May you have a try to exchange the suspected issue part from other miners running well? Be sure the configuration and connection are correct, please send an email to info@bitmaintech.com to ask shipping label for returning part after detecting the issue part. yeah, 100% the controller board sir already tried to exchange, and am sure this controller board is the main problem sir it just wont start hashing or display status of the blades about the configuration, am using the working one from other S1 same result, wont start hashing ok sir, i'll try to email info@bitmaintech.com again hope i got some ray of hope i just want them to try remote my pc (teamviewer) and check it by themself Hi, We will arrange RMA next Monday, UPS has a short break every Sunday.  ok sir, btw, am hoping that u try to remote my pc (teamviewer) it'll be better you guys check it 1st, maybe some touches will make this dude running again  about the RMA, i send this controllerboard back to you 1st? or otherwise? lose 1week of mining...  If I was you I would ask Bitmain to send a new controller for now (which you will pay) and have them ship it ASAP, then return the faulty one and get refund. |

I am guessing that the OP has just discovered about Binary Options and didn't like the outcome.

No girl, for $800 you can get a HUGE screen TV, pizzas, beer, sexy lingerie, sex toys, the energizer bunny, and whipping cream  This gets my vote. But we already have all that. OK then, for $800 you can get a suite at a good hotel with a large screen to watch the game, jacuzzi for warm up, pool size bed for main action , room service for break time, those tiny little shampoo and shower gel sets and let's not forget: sexy lingerie, sex toys, whipping cream and last but not least the energizer bunny  EDIT: Did I mention that you get those tiny little shampoo and shower gel sets |

Saw a post on google saying mark owns bitcoins.com from 2000
Did whois search and see its true
Funny how we get 4-5 posts about the same subject everyday. This is what is starting to make this forum boring..... EDIT: And no, it wasn't his from 2000, he bought it afterwards. Check today's posts and you will be enlightened |

if money were tight, and the wife didn't like hockey.. i'd just say "let me go solo." makes more sense.. it is important to share moments with your spouse, but shit, i don't mind going alone.
Sharing, that's the key-word. |

How far back does this discussion start? What is block withholding? Just curious, how can you be confident this was a hack? I mean what is the probability that they've just had bad luck and never got a winning answer but have genuinely been playing fairly? I've seen the evidence and am convinced (multiple different ways, even) that the miner in question was in fact block withholding. Whether it was intentional or accidental, I consider irrelevant. wizkid057 plans to release more information at some point publicly, I'm not sure when. |

$700 a seat is a lot. I couldn't see myself spending
that much on pretty much anything even though
I could "afford" it.
$700 $800 a seat?  I thought she wanted to sell a couple of coins to go to the match and other things too (travelling, Hotel, etc). No girl, for $800 you can get a HUGE screen TV, pizzas, beer, sexy lingerie, sex toys, the energizer bunny, and whipping cream Doesn't that sound better? |

I can't imagine how big the blockchain would be if the actual music is stored on it. The purpose of the blockchain is to solve the trust issue on an open ledger. Music doesn't need that. It would be pointless to create a music blockchain.
Theres no need for music to be stored on it just licensing info. However, how is one to overcome piracy? |

an altcoin with a 5mb per transaction rule,,, then anything is possible.
just dont expect anyone to download the blockchain
Actually, they could store licensing info on the blockchain. So, no need for 5mb |

kinda hard to give a suggestion when we don't know what your financial situation is.. as in how much income do you make, and how many bitcoins you have.. and i'm sure you don't want to disclose that.
Pretty much average middle class working family here. No real savings at this point because we are "fully" invested in BTC. A bit risky but so far it has been a risk we believe is worth taking. We are not huge holders by any means so selling any is hard to do compared to some earlier adopters on here for sure. But the Stanley Cup is a bit elusive. Decisions, decisions. You shouldn't "fully" invest in anything. NOTHING is guaranteed and that includes BTC. My opinion is that you should do what your heart tells you is the right thing to do and not ask strangers on a forum about opinions, and that includes mine as well. yeah, that's kinda crazy. i hope the both of you are prepared for a worst case scenario (bitcoin collapsing). Well, with "fully" I basically mean all of our savings, but not our retirement accounts. We haven't mortgaged the house or anything. Although it is tempting. Bitcoin is so liquid it is great to use as a savings account. We can access the funds within a few days if needed so all of our extra cash, which isn't much but has grown at an amazing rate thanks to the past bubble, is in BTC. Of course we have considered the worst case scenarios. It just hard not to invest as much as we can afford to lose with BTC. And it makes it hard to pull out any of that for purchases that seem "frivolous" like hockey games at these prices. might as well go to the game then. it's not every year that your favorite team makes it to the stanley cup. just tell him he can't ask for sex for 2 months if you do this for him Or even better, sex for 2 months straight after this |

I'm innocent until proven guilty in your country.
Luckily, I have no need to prove that I'm innocent both under my government and bitcoin way, since it is a by-default. If someone wants to announce that I'm guilty, Hi must prove.
I just want someone to get my money back according to his public visible account page.
I don't like to announce something which I cannot prove, this is not a bitcoin way.
So would you mind to explain what happend at BTCGuild? We have some issue with our mining infrastructure, which caused BTCGuild froze our account on the beginning of May. After a fast fix and a test on various pool include Eligius, we saw block solved (totally 5) on Eligius block page and think that the issue was resolved, then we switch back to BTCguild under its administrator's checking on the log of our share we mine after this incident. But we found that Eligius refused to pay for shares of our test. In a internal review of this issue, we think that eligius may know this issue and build a plot aimed to this issue. Then, the left is all known by all here. Can I ask what miners do you use? By which manufacturer(s) and at what hashing power? - specifically for each miner you have from each manufacturer if more than one. we use modified cgminer. hashing power is manufacturer by ourselves, including chips. Now our hash power is distributed among several public pool expect of eligius, and the miner's lucky value matches pool's. So the one that is really behind this is a Chinese ASIC manufacturer, that "test's" their hardware before they start selling it, just to make sure they work. I am right? We don't sell them. It is still working under my name when I typing these word. OK, you got me confused here. You said that the addresses are yours, then you said they belong to someone else, now you say they work for you. So what is it? Where I said it belongs to someone else? Here: I am the owner of 17JkL94B2ngJg4QQZuiozDQjnxXB6B7yTc , 1Gu8zxRi8cyENV8CQe52D7QEsiZ7ruT73u.
Can you provide us with cryptographic proof of ownership? No need, because whatever the end of this story is like, The speaking user "Brucexie" on bitcointalk cannot directly get even a cent from it. 17JkL94B2ngJg4QQZuiozDQjnxXB6B7yTc and 1Gu8zxRi8cyENV8CQe52D7QEsiZ7ruT73u will take all. You can treat me as a volunteer if you don't believe. |

I don't think any merchant accepts to do business for 0 confirmations.
I believe that is the only way Alice can double spend.
On the other hand, if Alice had ALOT of hashing power, to the point that guarantees to her that she would insert her transaction in the block and transmit to the network as valid then Alice can double spend.
I could be wrong here, but that is how I understand it.
