@Epoch nice tax guide man, i just realized that we pay too many of them. We live in the internet forest now so they can come and collect whenever they want

TL;DR, and your point is... ? MtGox is not very transparent so we can't start babbling like this without reason, go figure. Maybe they traced whole stolen amount of bitcoins passing from one wallet to another and then on to the exchange. That is a fresh taint of stolen bitcoins, just like a suitcase full of banknotes with their series reported as stolen, you would have to respond some questions.
I would like to see with my eyes what they thought it was suspicious but they seem more like a government institution than a community exchange in almost all of their actions, no transparency at all.

The Bitcoin container should contain not only the private key but also the funding transaction output. This allows the receiving client to create a transaction that sends to its own wallet without scanning the entire block chain. Scanning the block chain is a long and painful task and is not going to be less painful going forward.
The problem is that can be faked and won't be discovered until the transaction is rejected by other nodes. Either you scan the block chain locally or you send a potentially bogus transaction into the network and wait for a rejection from the first node who validates it against the block chain. Either way the work is being done. There is a big difference. Because you know the funding transaction output you don't have to scan all transactions that ever occurred to see which ones match the new key. This is like telling you where in the hay stack to look. I wouldn't imagine it saves that much time. A fraction of a second maybe? In either case you need complete copy of block chain w/ indexes built. When did you last run bitcoind with -rescan? Why would you do that? I mean honestly? To accomplish what? Do you think it is impossible to sweep coins from a private key without a rescan? easily, after you fund the wallet the software waits for a confirm then enables you the option to "export to file". You have secured the funds and your client knows the exact height of the unspent output and writes that in the metadata of the exported wallet. When importing, the client can look only at that block height and sweep the funds into a personal wallet without ever bothering to scan whole years of blockchain transactions. The best example would be the same "wallet.dat" file that bitcoin software has, where you have lots of extra info besides private keys. Some people will like to save those encapsulated private keys and scan for other outputs, or other purposes altogether, but that is out of the scope of this thread.

agree, would be like encapsulating money coins and sending them over other type of channels, like tcp/ip stack does. @Jan yesterday and it's painful and you can't use bitcoin while it does that, db is locked

Thanks, looks like a very nice service. I will try it. Thanks Arvislacis! thanks you, one word though... you would not sell those emails to some company willing to spam the heck out of us, would you ? Absolutely, not. I should put that up somewhere. The Bitcoin Community is more important then selling it out to some corporation. Please let me know if you ever get an email that you think is associated with us that isn't bitcoin related. Thanks for bringing that up! i would not mind getting mails not bitcoin related but they must come from your domain name to be sure you sent them. You can send any type of spam info into my mailbox while you count them on the balance sheet

I would prefer south americans over Spanish/European people because the money I can offer is worth more adjusted for their PPP, and the service i require is the same.
Ante tamaņa frase solo se me ocurre parafrasear al famoso Tano Pasman: "... la puta que me pario, la puta que me pario, no lo puedo creer, sos un pelotudo, la puta que me pario ♫♫♫ ..." nice one newten hehe seria mejor no traducir eso que asustamos el aprendiz ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OU1mW0Ty_Y)

Hello everyone, My name is Arvis Lācis. I'm simple student (18 years old) from Latvia (it's a small country in the North-East Europe near the Baltic Sea and Russia). In my spare time I'm programming and also translating software. Of course, I'm also blogging - http://varddienis.blogspot.com - my Latvian blog, and exploring many other thing connected with IT - social networks, gadgets. Some days ago I found out Bitcoin so I'm there. I would be happy for any donations to my Bitcoin: 1Pp5DMMAmXGDsFstsmiVc3Ghovu2k9GRRiThanks a lot. You can contact me on Twitter (@arvislacis) and Nimbuzz (arvislacis). nice intro, sent you some btc

wow, satoshi was on to something more in that thread... "...Imagine someone stole something from you. You can't get it back, but if you could, if it had a kill switch that could be remote triggered, would you do it? Would it be a good thing for thieves to know that everything you own has a kill switch and if they steal it, it'll be useless to them, although you still lose it too? If they give it back, you can re-activate it..." i can't stop imagining things based on such a feature, could be possible to have it on day in the Bitcoin software ? he was proposing a new way of doing escrow transactions, more p2p, but he didn't give any technical details though.

I know a Spanish teacher who might be interested. I'll send her your e-mail.
the thing is if he accepts bitcoins i do but don't have the experience as a teacher though

@Goats Cheese TL;DR your post, please stop provoking a fight with your comments or you will be reported to a moderator. Btw you should open a new thread if you really have something to say not posting in this one

28th Chaos Communication Congress so now we have ppl giving lectures to other not to mess with bitcoin because they could have legal problems. This guy appears to be on payroll of a multinational consulting firm or something, dunno, perfect image of a troll that has a task to formulate the "right" questions. This is only my opinion.
