i am confused about anonymous and doesn't need any type of verify, but after registration there they asking for my documents to verify my identity ? so better remove that link from op.

Plastic MasterCard, no verification!
Now you do not have to get your account verified to get a plastic Advanced Cash MasterCard. Order your card right after you create your Advanced Cash account. The card will have a cumulative limit of $2,500 that consists of $1,000 total ATM withdrawals and $1,500 worth of POS transactions and online purchases. Verify your account to enable our standard card limits, $3,000 daily withdrawals, $10,000 daily card funding.

But I am sure if you contact their support or AdvancedCash (here in the forum) you can receive more information. There is some people that are fine with the 2'500 dollars lifetime limit (because at the end it is like a 'gift card').

Its more than 3 hours and negative trust still not removed. Have PMed Quickseller to remove the trust but Tomatocage has blocked PMs from me. Can someone send him a PM regarding this?

Maybe he noticed this thread but he doesn't want to remove the negative trust, it's not a problem. Try to wait a couple of months ( or if you don't want to wait, buy another account to participate to a signature campaign).

At work I get two hops before I get "host not reachable", its probably the proxy blocking unauthenticated connections.

Yes it is the same thing for me, most probable an ISP 'error' but also a bitcointalk problem (but I'm not sure).

funny thing is that while bitcoin is pseudo anon and it is aiming at completely anon, exchange do require your id, they need after all to back up their asses if too much money flow in-out

The exchanges require an ID because they 'manage' and use also the various FIAT value , so they are obligated to use the banks and also due the country laws.

anyway just use the one tha do not rwquire id, like kraken(and bitfinextoo?)

Yes kraken is very fine, I don't know if the other one (bitfinex) is similar to the first one, because I've never used it.

Maybe time to switch to POS.

Please do.

Proof of stake and bitcoin can't coexist , because btc is based on PoW. If you want to stake your coin, do it but it is not necessary or needed a change in the protocol.
3206  Economy / Economics / Re: Can a coin that is primarily a store-of-value succeed? on: April 14, 2015, 06:26:19 AM
2140 is pretty far, but if you think about it, a block reward of < 1 BTC wouldn't be all that much, unless bitcoin's value skyrockets. So we may face this problem a lot earlier.

I think we will see something before/after the next halving (25 --> 12.5 bitcoin). Maybe from 200 dollars the price will jump to 300 bucks, but as you said the real interesting thing may happen after ~2032 (when the block reward will be less than 1 bitcoin).

3207  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Exchanges Too Invasive. Options? on: April 14, 2015, 06:20:30 AM

Yes I agree with you, bitcoin itself isn't the problem ... The real problems are (obviously) the governments and their laws (always restrictive). For the question about a full decentralized exchange, I think in the next few years we will see a couple of new exchange only with crypto currency (because the FIAT part is the problem).

This kind of thinking will kill bitcoin. Just think about it. It's like saying the disease isn't the problem, the person whose immune system couldn't defend against it is. Well, either way, that person is gonna die if he doesn't get help.

Stop laying the blame on governments. What we need is a solution, not whining about how much governments suck.



It is obviously we need a solution I have only said that the governments are the problem, not the bitcoin. My solution is to start use bitcoin as money much more than FIAT money (and I know it is very difficult to use it as money for the various purchases).

Even in ISIS, instead of following the religion they claim to be so devout to, they'll use it as an excuse to get rid of rivals and so on who speak up against, them, none of it is real, never follow the fanatics in any walk of life, especially the ones who talk about how morally superior they are.

It is only an excuse as you said, if you remove them the religion part I'm sure they will continue to do the same (so the religion doesn't matter at all).
3209  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Exchanges Too Invasive. Options? on: April 14, 2015, 05:51:30 AM
I had a "situation" with coinbase that, up to this incident, I didn't have any issues with and technically it wasn't coinbase's fault in the beginning. I moved, got a new phone number and attempted to log in coinbase to update it...annnnd it was intercepted by that stupid fucking authy crap basically intercepting it so I had to ask their permission to update my phone number and after fucking around for a week, the stupid twats actually said no. WTF. It's not their decision whether I update my damn phone. Man I was pissed. Still am. I won't be using that shit again.

I went to coinbase and they suggested just making/verifying a new acct and they'd transfer it over...which I did in about 8 minutes but when I let them know it was done and needed them to transfer it over, they took over a week to get to it...so tonight I basically had to spam the chat and the "ticket" thing with demands for them to get the shit done and send it over and finally they did.

I was a fan of coinbase but this is bullshit they take their own sweet time and do it whenever they feel like it. There was no legitimate reason for them to drag ass longer than a week to move the btc from the old acct to the new one and after a dozen emails to support - they didn't even answer the first one. After this, it really drove it home about it's "not your bitcoin" when it's on coinbase or some other exchange...but I still needed a way to buy/sell so I haven't deleted the coinbase account yet.

What I did do was join circle.com and get alllllll the way signed up until it came time to verify my identity. Unlike coinbase, circle wanted me to scan a drivers license in, which in and of itself I didn't mind but it was a pain in the ass to have do that...and then they wanted a selfie on top of it. Are you fucking kidding me?

So we have coinbase who arbitrarily drags ass and holds your money hostage til they fucking feel like getting off their asses and processing it, not to mention the whole delay between purchasing and selling off/back to bank.

We have authy who is not a 2 factor authorization, it's apparently decided IT decides whether you can authorize your shit.

And now circle who is by far the most invasive on the verification.

What's next, fingerprints, retina scans and background checks? Fuck that shit. Ah god damn I'm still fuming apparently...  Grin

What the hell has happened with these exchanges? They've become more anal retentive than a bank. I literally opened a bank account by filling out a form and giving them one dollar and was done in 20 minutes.

Any options besides these that aren't all about getting up in your business and just have minimal invasive verification?



You live in the US?  That's because your government is too invasive.  Not that there's anything wrong with it.  But it's a hassle.

Yes I agree with you, bitcoin itself isn't the problem ... The real problems are (obviously) the governments and their laws (always restrictive).

Once they bought the child from its father it is not called rape it is called marriage.

What is wrong with you? The kid was kidnapped from her parents, just because she belonged to the Yazidi religious group. No one "bought" the kid.

I've been to India multiple times, and I have never liked the broadband facilities there. A decent connection (512 Kbps, i.e 64 KBps) costs as much as $25 and the service is really bad. In my country, I pay half of that amount for a 50Mbps connection!!!!

Can I ask you where do you live? Here in Italy at the moment I'm paying 45 € (two months) for a 20/5 Mbps and I don't think it is too much.


However I have some friends that live in India and they always tell me " my connection is very bad, and we pay too much". As in almost all the Asian countries.
I pay 20€ a month for 32/2 in Germany, I wouldn't expect India to have a great broadband service, but I didn't expect that it would be really expensive too!

I would be interested to know if in the bigger cities this if different, I mean 4g is much faster than 512kb/64kb, so it shouldn't be hard to implement in big cities.

Yes 20 € a month for a 32/2 Mb is very good, Germany is a very good country... maybe one day I will visit it.


Maybe as Sithara 007 said, in the metro city there isn't that problem. The problem is the countryside city, etc.

It really depends on the infrastructure that is invested by the telecommunication providers, also to note that India is a HUGE country and bigger countries always tend to have slow/bad internet connections. Probably in 10 years the cable/internet infrastructure will be better and more stable. It's just a matter of funding and time.

When I am see the Google fiber, I really can't imaginate those people surf internet at 1 Gbps and here I have 20 Mbps  Roll Eyes.

PGP: Should I set one up with keybase.io? Isn't it just another potential point of failure? (if someone manages to gain access to my keybase.io?)

You can import you PGP private key on keybase.io and use it to sign messages, you are not obligated to use the internal one.




Yes it may be a point of failure but if you use a strong password and 'improve' your security I think there will not be any type of problem.

You can easily know the father of the child by dna test. This is not written in koran?

DNA can give estimated results not accurate.

DNA tests can exclude with 100% accuracy and include with 99.99% probability. That's enough in my book. (My book is science.)

We can consider a science a sort of religion, and a religion a science. I can believe in them, but you can believe only in one (science) I suppose you are not a religious person.
3216  Other / Politics & Society / Re: ISIS impregnates 9-year-old girl on: April 13, 2015, 06:45:41 PM
I undertand. We(in general)  both may not be able to convince each other.

Yes, a man can have a maximum of four wives. There are strict rules if one man marry more than one wife.

I will give you a simple answer for that. Milk four types of animals, say goat, cow, camel and donkey. Pour them in a pot/bucket/flask and mix them. Can you now identify which is from which? It is the same with having babies. If you have four husbands, it won't be easy to who is child's father? But this is not the case for a man.

What?  Shocked

How is that related to inequality in Islam where a man is allowed to have four wives at one time and woman are not?

When a woman is having sex with four husbands* in between very short time(some days), how can they know who was child's exact father? Now read what I said above. I hope noe you get it.

* Not at a time.

Edit: 311 answered. I know when we say, it is wrong and illogical. When others say, it is correct and logical.

You can easily know the father of the child by dna test. This is not written in koran?

DNA can give estimated results not accurate.

In cert cases (almost always) the DNA test can confirm who is the father, so I think it is more accurate than you think.

Quickseller and Tomatocage gave me negative trust yesterday regarding a loan default though tm2013 has already confirmed that issue has been solved. He and I have sent several PMs to both of them but they still haven't removed the negative trust.


See This:-



I wish both of them see this post and remove this red trust as soon as possible. Also would like if tm2013 confirms it here too Smiley


Have you tried to ask them 'politely'? Remember the trust system is not moderated but I think both users may remove the negative trust against you (if you prove that you are honest).

Yup, "1 address = 1 loan" is good. However, you should take care of impersonators. It is not that hard to find who is lying. I personally like to use 1 address for all loans except if borrower ir escrow asks it.

Good luck lending! Hope there won't be any problems for you.

Thanks.


I am honoured to be the one who received the first loan! Thanks again, redsn0w.

You are welcome, see you after one week for the repayment of the loan that I've gave you Wink.

Truth hurts, some muslims are doing it for the sake of Islam. Where there is Islam there is a war happening, its sad but true..

Why do they kill people from their own religion? They are politically retarded persons...

This is an interesting person, why someone declared himself muslim kill another muslim in name of a God (Allah)? I don't think they are real muslims, but who knows...

Seriously this is unbelievable , how could they rape a 9 years old ? These aren't humans they are something way worse, I hope nobody has the faith of that little girl.

IMHO Islamic punishment should be prosecuted, "stoned to death". This may interpreted by others saying I am spreading violence. But I think, without these type of punishments, they will continue this worst act.

BTW, does the report says "a" girl or are there more? Sad

I think it was only one girl, but I am still search more articles online.
