What products, talents, and skills, do you have for which others will be willing to pay?  A lot of bitcoiners don't. Not saying that they aren't skilled, but we're a little away from bitcoin payroll. |

Hrm ... although i must admit i gave a try to some of those easy-earned bitcoins at first, i won't encourage any of my friends to do so, here's why : You already know that transactions with multiple small inputs leads to bigger fees, when you'll later combine those inputs to create the output, while sending coins to someone else. Using & re-using those 'daily offers' will just lead to bigger fees, with nearly nothing really usable in your current balance  Nice first post  A few of them, such as dailybitcoins lets you pool your earnings so you choose when to receive the payout. You just need to wait a few days and the fees will be low. Fees also depends on the block embedded transactions (block size including other transactions than yours). For now, the fee may indeed be relatively low (it depends of the amount of BTC you send, and the number of thoss small inputs involved, and as you said, the so-called "1-bitcoin-day" thing), but over time ... with the locked 10 minutes interval between two blocks, fees will unfortunately increase... I should write "unfortunately" here (with quotes) as ... miners will soon exclusively rely on those fees :p ... currently at block 205276 .. less than 5k blocks before first halving .. i'm really curious on all the consequences we'll soon observe  I don't really get at what you're trying to say here... |

I know, it's far from perfect, but it would be a small step in the right direction. It seems a bit silly that lenders cannot rate borrowers until they've submitted a whole lot of info despite the fact that they're the ones taking all the risk. The alternative is lots of sock puppets popping up and diluting the rating system which is even worse. Too bad people can't or won't just behave. Talking about that, anyone notice the guy asking for rate-for-rates? |

There is a new weekly guarantee tournament on Friday!
It is the Friday Swell Guarantee at 11pm ET. The buy-in is 0.4BTC and the guarantee increases by 1BTC each week that we don't have to add money to the prize pool to meet the guarantee. The guarantee tomorrow will be 1BTC.
Not a big surprise, we hit the guarantee and it will be bumped to 2000 for next week. Big juicy weekend games coming up! I will have to remember this. Not the game itself, but how you are insentivizing players to make sure that a certain threshold of competitors are met. It might lower their chances of winning one week, but it increases the prize for the next one. |

bitcrate is now empty but was filled for a few days.
bitcoin.so is empty
this Bitcoin Dispenser that recently was re acquired?? It shows a last donation of JUNE, it is now October. Nobody has paid into it since then?
paperco isn't worth the paper to wipe your butt with.
bitvisitor is hot
cointube has some nice vids to see as well.
all others appear to be operating as advertised.
Aaron
P.S. Do folks find these reports useful or annoying? Just curious and please be honest.
If you don't report on the status of things, you just push it off on someone else, who might just do the same. |

Does your system automatically report overdue accounts to you? Or where are we supposed to go report them? This user has two loans which are now overdue on payments. https://btcjam.com/users/25.. Tulkas, I still await your response. As operator of the site are you going to actively push delinquent account holders to square up loans? Or is it up to the lenders themselves to try and enforce settlement? I can't find any information on the site for contingency when loans default. I'm sorry, since this was already answered two times on this thread i forgot to answer. One response here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=112447.msg1223097#msg1223097We are working right now in order to establish legal means to report this debit to collection agencies but for now and as our service policy states, the verification process intends to prevent scammers to setup multiple high scored accounts. We will notify all the lenders when we have updates. I can assure you this is our top priority right now. I know you said you would let us know when you have updates... but... any updates? |

What is with the changes to the credit ratings?
The system now takes into account the open credit lines of the user. To prevent ponzi like loan chains the ratio between open credit lines and repaid balance is used. I see! Good idea! |

Oral lifetime warranties are hard to prove in a court of law, but written lifetime warranties are covered in the United States under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act of 1975.
So unless the lifetime warranty is written and documented, it doesn't legally exist. The ASICs don't even exist yet. And you guys are worrying about the lifetime warranty existing? ASIC exists since a long time. If you write about ASIC in bitcoin mining you're right If something does not exist never breaks down, so you're right, at the moment there is no need to worry about this But customers have a right to know. Ignorance of the law is harmful. I'm just saying the warranty for the ASICs hasn't been drawn up yet (probably). |

I like the site so far. I've got about 10BTC invested in there so far.
I do have an issue I'd like to raise though. I can't rate any users because I have a 0 rating and apparently I need a rating of 3 to rate other users. I don't care to prove my identity because I don't want to borrow any coins. However I've lent some to a delinquent loan and want to give the borrower a negative rating.
Can you help me with this?
We prevent users with low verification status from rating others to avoid the sockfarm problem (when the same user creates several accounts to get a good rating), you will need at least level 4 to rate other users, unfortunately we can't open any exception or the rating system will suffer. As for the delinquent loan, any delinquent user is automatically downgraded to zero score. Of course we are open to suggestions, so if you can think of a better way to solve the sockfarm problem we will be happy to implement it! What would happen to someone's previous ratings if they were to go delinquent? Let's say they positively rated someone positive in the past, would those ratings still stand if the rater went delinquent? |

Lifetime warranty? Cool. I plan on living forever though...
"Lifetime warranty" means product life (how long it is produced) + 1year Or until the company's bankruptcy Aren't things like warranties put into the bankruptcy terms? |

I've verified my bitcointalk name with btcjam, but I'm not seeing any sign that I have done so beyond my settings page.

Oh look, it's thebitbabe
pronounced SCAMMER
You can't use a single identity for more than one account on btcjam. Unless thebitbabe is using a stolen or fraudulent identities, I doubt she is gretchen. |

Is documentation submitted to improve credit score cross referenced to other information submitted? As in, do you check to make sure that the full name on an ID matches the full name on a bank statement or utility bill?
I hope this would be common sense.
