We don't need any more councils or what ever, the bitcoin foundation is fine as it is - just join and move for a vote on changes if you want any
And you don't question how two companies hold seats, unopposed by any other companies or competing companies? Or how there are no checks and balances?

I just downloaded it on my iphone 5 and it works great - not full screen but scans codes- send and receives just fine
You should check out http://instawallet.org, cause they allow you to add a bitcoin address to your passbook app, and it updates the balance automatically and it really cool.

I'm clueless altogether with this... Kind of figuring it out as I go
I would recommend hiring someone, cause it is very difficult for a new person to figure it out by themselves

First off to get real time data, in java from mt gox is you need a library that will read a web socket stream, and that is where your issue is. So get a library that you can pass in the ws:// url for mt gox and you will have a real time ticker. But to me it sounds like you have no clue as to write java code cause you would clearly see that you need to keep polling the URL to get the ticker state at that time.

You do know the ROI of tweets is based on how much a user engages there followers, when there are no tweets or it looks super spammy with just link will actually cause people to ignore it even more. So paying for this would be worthless.

-Its own domain name that it doesn't share with a romanian porn site (I mean really, nice image).
Peeps, just please stop repeating this cliche. Conglomerate domains have their tactical uses, in this case as probably as a anti-filtering and anti-takedown measure. I don't have a specific knowledge about polimedia.us and Romania; but a conglomerate domain that would host a bitcoin securities exchange and a financial news site would have a very good prior restraint defense against stupid takedowns. In Europe this tactic worked for the users of LiveJournal and many other traditional publishers. This "dedicated domain name" really is a cheapo marketing shibboleth. If you don't believe me, read the post of the local hit&run marketing expert: reeses. Of course I have to quote it in full, since reeses always doing the purge of his posts before he runs. The owner of mpex hosts it on his servers. Just search the forums lots of people reference it.
It is kind of silly not to have a dedicated domain for mpex. However, while there is pr0ns available via the same hostname, there is no child pornography there. That's just an added level of "eww" made up by ciuciu when "he also hosts porn" didn't have any effect. It also hosts a boring blog in moon-man gibberish. None of the people claiming there is child pornography on the site has been able to provide evidence beyond,"Look for yourself," which you can understand my unwillingness to do. It's a romanian 4chan, so weird shit pops up from the members. Hmm...first bitcoin bank of 4chan... I don't think the fact that MPEx lacks a dedicated domain name will stop a securities investigation In addition to which, is it really wise to have it on a ".us" domain? plus that domain is registered in the USA LMAO and all the information is in the who is just look

I'm not an expert, but I would think a "security" is selling what is ultimately a promise of some sort, whereas goats, feathers, chickens, and Bitcoins are all commodities at best - they are what they are.
I would think the problem isn't so much selling securities, it's in the issuing them. If I print securities (promises) out of my butt and offer them to the public at large, knowing full well there's a dozen ways I can cut and run with the money without any accountability, there's something wrong with that.
I never bought or touched any Bitcoin "securities" because I believe that securities require a framework of law and accountability in order to have any value. You can't have a public company insulated from the law, because it would also have to be just as insulated from its shareholders. If shareholders have no means to protect their interests and must simply rely on the goodness of others' anonymous hearts to maintain their value, well they're asking to get screwed.
The premise of a new decentralized stock exchange that operates like Silk Road or like the Bitcoin network itself is fundamentally flawed as well, and would only be an asset to scammers in my opinion. Sure, it's technologically possible to start one up, but without any accountability I doubt it'll be possible for an anonymous entity to issue securities that will have any lasting value above zero. I agree with you, the tender is not the issue here. I think gweedo fails to see this. Then explain second life stock market? If bitcoin stocks markets get shutdown by the government agencies, then second life stock market would have to get shutdown, and every other virtual currency stock market would be shutdown. Plus your thinking of this as more the Public stock exchange, which this more of the second market exchange which we know is all SEC registered but since no bitcoin company is public, it would be the best stock market to "copy". Plus that statement isn't agreeing with you, he is stating how he thinks that securities can't exist with out some type of laws. I would have to disagree, the beautiful thing about bitcoins, you don't like the stock market or what the social laws are, you don't use it, plain and simple.

Tor hidden service would be great, but don't forget that central server is still an issue. I mentioned this before in other thread - Look at Osiris serverless portal. Decentralized P2P solution.
The forum doesn't need to be hidden that would kill off a lot of the community and make people not want to use bitcointalk and probably go to another forum.

its not? http://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/08/unregistered-securities.asp#ixzz28PML2jewA security is not defined by how its bought or what its bought with. You could trade someone 1000 pounds of feathers for 4 shares in a company if the seller will take it. Guess what still makes it a security, the whole thing behind it being bitcoin is going to get lots of people screwed in the long run. A security is not defined by how it's purchased I hope people understand that. If someone was to sell a share of Google for 5 goats it does not matter he is still a shareholder. Buy 1 share of illegalstocks inc with 5 goats its still a illegal security. So tell me how its is in the gray area or legal. A security is a security no matter if you trade people goats, $ or Bitcoins. Its just the tender you used to buy it. First off investopedia assumes you talking about USD and the public stock exchange which we are not. So right there your whole argue would not hold up. Plus bitcoin is not recognized as a global currency so it is unregulated, meaning that I can basically do what I want. Since pure bitcoin companies operate with no regulations they can sell stocks without being threaten by any agency or government pressure. Go back to economics school and ask your S.E.C friends they will tell you they can't touch bitcoins.

It is not illegal to discuss illegal matters.
Wrong it is called Conspiracy. In criminal law, a conspiracy is an agreement between two or more persons to commit a crime at some time in the future. Criminal law in some countries or for some conspiracies may require that at least one overt act must also have been undertaken in furtherance of that agreement, to constitute an offense. There is no limit on the number participating in the conspiracy and, in most countries, no requirement that any steps have been taken to put the plan into effect (compare attempts which require proximity to the full offence). For the purposes of concurrence, the actus reus is a continuing one and parties may join the plot later and incur joint liability and conspiracy can be charged where the co-conspirators have been acquitted or cannot be traced. Finally, repentance by one or more parties does not affect liability but may reduce their sentence. Two people talking about opening a illegal security is Conspiracy...... at least in U.S. law. This is always a charge used in almost any crime, it a way the gov "Put's it to you" But who said that bitcoin only securities are illegal? Cause they are not.

I think it's a good idea. This forum is a target too easy for whomever may decide to do a crackdown on coiners (which I expect soon or later). Regarding noobs, if they learned to open a browser, they can even learn to launch Tor Browser. It is time they do. A major drawback is that the .onion network is slow as hell, and there is little hope that it can improve much.
If more people ran exit nodes or even internal relays Tor would be a hell of a lot faster, but it's the same as Bit torrent, people just take and leech off the community and never give anything back. You do know running an exit node is legally draining and can put you in jail, I don't blame people who don't want that responsibility.

I will not ban a subject of discussion on the forum unless it's very clear that the forum cannot survive while allowing that discussion. I think discussion of securities is pretty safe. If not, it probably wouldn't be too hard to move the forum somewhere where it is safe.
Discussing them is fine. Advertising them is not. Do people know what the difference is ? How is the forum going get in trouble for security talk? It isn't like the forum is issuing assets for the securities. Plus securities in bitcoins isn't illegal FYI

I don't want to publish the shareholder list. Many people who opposed Nefario would like to remain anonymous, and even the people who supported him are decent enough people who I don't want to "out". Some of the shareholders did comment in this thread without saying that they're shareholders.
I really hope the people posting in here can disclose that they are share holders, it is only right.

What do you have to hide?
spoken like a true statist... what was nefario doing wrong?? yet the evil fed bastards went after him anyway in a world of corrupt goons, we are all criminals just by breathing the air... You do know nefario shut it down, no outside agency threaten, or tried to shut him down. So get your facts right.

Bartering is regulated to some degree by the united states, i am claiming a currency that isn't recognized globally can't be regulated.
Good luck with that, and I hope nobody listens to your advice, because you are wrong. See: gold and every other private currency. Gold is a commodity and what other private currencies there are none.
