Maybe he would consider redirecting it to bitcoin.org while the domain is not in use?
That would seem to be more beneficial to the currency than a dead domain.
For me, bitcoin.com domain is already re-directing to: https://bitcoin.org/en/I'm sure it must not be only me, though? Not for me, I get a page not found error from bitcoin.com I Googled for "bitcoin" yesterday and bitcoin.com was on the first page of results. Strangely, I Googled for it again today and it doesn't show up in the first two pages of results. Perhaps someone important noticed our discussion and decided to change things. |

Agreed. And now the price is climbing a little too  Whats the ratio? 1:200? Yes. 200 notes equals 1 BTC. 1800$ ?? What are the aribtrage-possibilities? As bad as with GTBTC? The cool thing about this ETN is that there is no limit of "matured shares". The issuer buys more real bitcoin on exchanges if the players want more ETNs. No limits on either bid or ask side! If prices drop btc to usd on the open global market, then knc credit ratings will play asignificant part on the value of XBT shares. How good, or bad, are knc's credit ratings? I know there is at least one, and maybe more, class action lawsuits against them for selling useless mining gear. I don't think any of the lawsuits have gone to court yet, but if they lose will it affect their credit rating? |

Its quiet. Too quiet  Where is dev  Please don't make this thread look like one of the bad alt coin threads full of comments like "where is the dev", and "is this coin dead". This thread is for tracking the completely stable price of Bitcoin and discussing how boring the lack of volatility is. |

....... I call your DLOL and take you further down the Flemish Rabbit Hole. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=229315.msg2412906#msg2412906After reviewing the comments, thread and discussing the notion of a p2p exchange with many in this community alongside the recent events with Liberty Reserve and MtGox, it is clear a P2P exchange needs to be developed to ensure the long term survival of all cryptocurrencies. There seems to be a great deal of innovation and different approaches to building a P2P exchange thus I think it is prudent to aggregate those actively working on an exchange into a single project for the purposes of collaborative innovation, funding, brainstorming and also reducing needless replication.
I call this Project Invictus. Over the coming weeks, I'll develop a website and forum for it as well as a mailing list. Until then, I'd love for anyone interested in joining to express their desire here and PM me their contact information. I'm also open to ideas about how the project should be structured and the specific set of goals we should have. Here is my crude first attempt: ...... A screenshot of that post reveals the author to be a bitcointalk hero member called charleshoskinson. He claims to be Director of the Bitcoin Education Project.  His profile at the link below shows he was active a few days ago, and that he has stated his age is 27 and his location is Boulder, Colorado.. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=102392He also says he founded the ethereum project with vitalik buterin, and created bitshares with dan larimer. I founded the ethereum project with vitalik buterin and was it's ceo for some time. Also created bitshares with dan larimer. prior to that I was a theoretical mathematician studying analytic number theory and some topics in cryptography.

I read https://bitcoin.org/en/ when I first started learning about bitcoin, and the one thing I really wanted to know that it didn't tell me was how and where to buy them. There might be a difficult to find link to an exchange on the site, but if there is I couldn't find it. http://bitcoin.com shows on the first page of results for a Google of "bitcoin", but I don't know why because the link leads nowhere. |

The GDP of Sweden is ~0.9% of the world's economy. What's more, they are going to drop their peg to the Euro when Greece defaults and the Kron is going to skyrocket in value. Why would Swedes want our deflationary currency when they are going to have their own soon?
Stockholm Nasdaq is international... More or less anyone can buy/sell there. Is it backed by the people behind KNC, and are they trust-able? I know there are complaints about mining companies and some of them (like butterfly labs) have pulled massive scams. Who pays the bill if anything goes wrong, is it KNC or an insurance company? |

Less than 11 hours until Nasdaq Stockholm opens it doors for bitcoin trading. Am I the only person excited about that? EDIT: The exchanges are certainly not showing any signs of excitement... Maybe tomorrow will be exactly the same as today and the price will stay flat with incredibly low volume. If Nasdaq Stockholm fails to ignite any interest things could continue stagnating for a long time. A few weeks ago everyone was asking if it would go up or down. We all got it wrong, the answer was neither. |

Ok so don't participate in the witch hunt. That's valid. But if you are going to participate it's silly to keep debating exactly who Nick Szabo is and how old he is. That is known.
Conclusively prove who he is and how old he is then, and back up any claims with multiple sources of rock solid evidence. When I checked it out I found multiple contradictory pieces of information which cannot all be correct. |

communicated with users via email — but never by phone or in person. Then, in 2011, .. the emails stopped.
not only emails but MULTIPLE forums... .. i guess the research must be really really lacking in the article If you research it you will find Satoshi disappeared after Gavin announced he was going to the CIA headquarters to give them a presentation about Bitcoin. It's no wonder he shit himself and ran away, I guess most people would have done the same thing in his position.  The old CIA post's thread is now locked, but here's the link. |

As franky1 says, there will be thousands of companies using that as their mailing address. Check out the informaton from the virtualpostmail.com site below. http://www.virtualpostmail.com/help/faq-shipping-delivery-package-forwardingI’m going to be in the area, can I pick up my mail?
Yes, you are more than welcome to pick up your mail! In order to have it ready for you, we request that you submit a “pickup order” at least half a day in advance. Simply create a shipment as you normally would for forwarding. For the destination address, use:
Pick Up
340 S Lemon Ave
Walnut, CA 91789
As we’re not a retail but an office/warehouse, we are not open to the general public. So you must call us or send us an email ahead of time to make an appointment between the hours of 10AM and 4PM on Mondays – Fridays (excluding holidays) for pick up. Then drop by any time around the appointed time to pick up your shipment. Although we do not charge for shipping, we do charge a slight handling fee of $0.15 /mail piece and $1.50 / package.THAT'S AN EXCELLENT IDEA! Go and pick up your mail there. I'm goin' make you guys work for this next tidbit. Go to Google Maps and zoom the street view to see the name of the business literally next door. It's plastered on the side of the building. Oh, then use Google to discover who owns the entire building. I can't because the sun keeps getting in my eyes.  What's the name of the business next door, and who owns it? I'm finding it extremely difficult to work out which building is 340. Google street view is often a little hazy on which number a particular building is. |

Unsure if we can class a 2-3 USD rise as a 'pump'  Any kind of rise is nice but I think we need to revise our terminology. Much like when it goes down a couple of dollars it's hardly a dump in the big picture. Let's have a nice pump up to 300 by this time next week It's about time we entered a nice, new, long bull market. Going from $236.5 to a little over $237 is definitely not a pump. When we finally get some real movement the last few days prices will appear as a completely flat line on the charts. Normally a dollar's movement wouldn't show up, let alone be regarded as a pump. |

it was originally bought simply to preserve the bitcoin community and to stop scammers buying up the name and placing fake information on it or trying to extort the community.
imagine if the bank of england/bank of america bought it instead of a bitcoin community member.. imagine the propaganda the banks would write on the website to talk people out of investing in bitcoin. highlighting things like volatility and darkweb usage, etc.
im glad the majority of main bitcoin branding is in the hands of the community members
Has he bought all the other similar names like bitcoin.org and bitcoin.co.[insert country here]? There are surprisingly few misinformation sites at the top of the search results for those sorts of names, so they must be in safe hands. |

Chartbuddy has been the only poster here for the last 4 hours! What's happening, this thread used to be buzzing and now there are tumbleweeds blowing through it? I suppose it's pointless tracking and discussing bitcoin price movement when the price stays exactly the same for days.

Newbie rule?
Please?
These days I look at post count before reading the post.
I wish we could separate the speculation section into two parts. One for the bulls and one for the bears.
Who gets custody of ChartBuddy? We could use an algorithm with artificial intelligence to switch between giving the bulls custody of ChartBuddy when the price is going up, and giving the bears custody when the price is going down. The bears could then happily ignore the fact the price is going up, and the bulls could happily ignore the fact the price is going down. That should keep everyone happy. |

Here's another tidbit: Which thread's post are indexed via Google? 1. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1062611.0 <-- Started today! or 2. Posts in this thread penned yesterday, none of which penned today are indexed. Careful, now! It may be a trick question. This post brought to you by a dude that had an important post deleted penned on this thread today. Again, I wasn't notified via a PM of its removal. Bitcointalk was briefly offline a few hours ago, so there might be a time delay between the post's removal and you being notified. Maybe offline time interferes with the system somehow. There must be a massive load on it with all the posts it gets. Most other forums would crash under bitcointalk's normal load. |

Regarding the comments in https://twitter.com/AdrianChen/status/456922865992863744-One commenter claims he contacted Nick and Nick denied it was a pic of him. For what that's worth. -The pic is supposed to be from 1997. Assuming the person pictured there is ~35 years old, that would make him 53 years old now. -That doesn't match with the age indicated for Satoshi elsewhere, based on a profile he'd created. (Which I think had him 38 years old just a couple years ago.) In other words, it's all still clear as mud. I think the linguistic analysis is likely among the best evidence for a link that is available, but it's not conclusive. It's pretty clear that this Nick fellow is a phantom though, as much as Satoshi. If the pic is supposed to be from 1997 then why has the guy on the left got a buttoned down collar on his shirt? I don't remember those being fashionable then, they were popular in the early to mid eighties. Also, the guy on the right has a fairly wide tie which reminds me of ties from the late seventies. Maybe both guys had bought their clothes over ten years earlier, but it's unlikely. Finally, mustaches were right out of fashion in 1997. |

There was a businessinsider article that discussed the possiblty of Nick Szabo being Satoshi last year. It concludes that we often refer to him simply as "the creator". I have never heard that term used here before, so I'm not convinced the author knows what he's talking about. http://www.businessinsider.com/nick-szabo-bitcoin-2014-4?IR=T" The Bitcoin community remains almost violently opposed to any outside effort to out Satoshi. He is often referred to simply as "the creator." Leah McGrath Goodman, who reported the Newsweek story, received threats on reddit." So, it's possible that this guy (Nick Szabo) is Satoshi Nakamoto? So, he is a very old man  You are not showing Satoshi the proper respect, according to businessinsider you should be referring to him as "the creator". If that picture someone posted really is Nick Szabo it makes me wonder if he really is a very old man. The clothes the people are wearing look like stuff from the seventies or early eighties, and the picture's so blurred it's difficult to pin an age on him. If it was taken in the eighties and he was 45, then he might be 85, but it's so fuzzy it might have been taken when he was thirty. |
