341  Economy / Services / Re: .05 BTC per month for minimum 200 posts on: January 07, 2015, 12:53:41 PM
I am a Full Member.Would anyone pay me 0.05 BTC per month for my full signature space for minimum 200 posts or more?

This is an inquiry.

Do you mean 20 posts or 200 posts?

Cryptomine is the best campaign.

Rates:
Full Members: BTC0.125 for the first 50 posts and BTC0.100 for the next 50 posts / month

No website (not automated). Not provably fair. And a house edge of 16.6% (?!) Ehhh.. is this a joke?

Sorry to say, but within the bitcoin community those things aren't really accepted, I highly doubt you will get players this way.

Using marcotheminer as escrow is fine though and donating some to charities is obviously good. But this is not going to work this way.

I agree with this. House edge is too high. Return is just 83.3%. A dice site got 99%. No reason to attract players.

Do you remember these guys?  I do.

Quote
Typically, companies that bank on the laziness of Americans to turn a profit do so with tremendous success. So, xxxxx's plan to offer online rebates in exchange for tremendous upfront costs seemed like a winner. The company would charge $2000 for a stereo system that retailed for less than $300 and allow the consumer to get a full rebate so long as they submitted paperwork and agreed to strict deadlines. The company’s profit model was based on consumers being too stupid or lazy to follow up on the rebate, allowing xxxxx to dump product at a tremendous markup. Instead, the company gave away electronic equipment to an especially astute customer base until it went under in 2001.

CyberRebate according to Google. Never heard of them.

BOOO!  You weren't supposed to use Google.

CyberRebate was correct.  I ordered a few hundred dollars of cheap products off them and got it all back.  But I heard some (very greedy) people who got shafted for tens of thousands of dollars when the company collapsed.

Interesting concept tho.

Did the company intentionally make the rebate process difficult?

Well, that is not what I meant exactly . Either my English is bad, or yours is bad. Never mind.

I got to go now. and don't forget to repay the loan. bye. Cheesy

Repayment amount : BTC equivalent to $137.69 is what I agreed at.
Also, I can now clarify what I meant to say...

If I get 0.28 from the sig camp and the price will be at $250, then that 0.28 will be worth $70, and so the remaining part is $67.69 (~$68) which will be worth BTC0.272 which I will buy in fiat to pay you in full, so you will get 0.552 if the price of BTC will be at $250.

In opposite case, if the price will be up to (let's suppose) $400, and I get 0.28 which will be worth $112, the remaining part in fiat, i.e., $25.69 (~$26) which will be worth BTC0.065 will be bought by me to pay you in full, so you will get 0.345 if the price of BTC will be at $400.

Also, don't worry about the fairness, I will be very true and fair with you based on the fiat and price of BTC at the time of repaying you, and will also pay you more than what you bought it for... Trust me, I am your friend... Smiley

Also let me know if my above statements clarified you everything or not? Thanks...

Right. everything is clarified. it is what I meant. No one makes a loss. Thanks Smiley
lol, you don't have to be so kind. Just the loan amount is quite enough Wink

No, I had thought you need a USD pegged loan because you had to buy it. Now I get that part of the repayment amount will come from the signature campaign.
So I was asking you that, at the time of repayment, can you decide an honest amount for so that both of us won't make a profit or loss.

Edit: that is is other words, pay what you think is fair after taking into account the price.
Like if you get 0.25 from campaign and price is at $10000, you can pay : 0.25 BTC + ~$65 worth of btc . You get the idea?

Ok, I get it... You mean I need to repay BTC equivalent to the amount you purchased at, right? And don't worry... I will send you higher than your fiat, as I won't only paying you with my sig camp only, but also through my salary that will come on 20th... Smiley

Well, that is not what I meant exactly . Either my English is bad, or yours is bad. Never mind.

Well, I get your point. If you are paying me with the signature campaign's earnings, that will be around say 0.2. I see.

In that case, can you be honest, and pay such an amount as that will cause no loss to me or you?

You mean you want BTC0.2 back to be sent by me now?

I am fairly bullish on bitcoin. I only made that offer since I thought it is beneficial to the OP. Well, I am confused now.

Will let OP choose what he want. Cheesy

Well, as I said before, I am ok with it, although I was a bit confused about your profit and loss explanation, but now I got it...

No, you pay $137.69 worth of BTC.

Example: if price is $1000, you pay 0.137BTC (or more if you like to Smiley )

Else, you won't be able to pay if price hits say $1000 or above.

Ok, I confirm this from my side too... But sir, you said that if the price goes up, I will have a loss... How? As if it goes $1000 and I will pay BTC0.137, I will be in profit, but if the price goes down, I will bear the loss by paying higher amount in BTC... Am I right? If it's true, then I am ok with it, and I wish that BTC must remain stable as I am taking a big risk, as with you... Smiley
This is a fiat based loan. You should not bear any kind of loss no matter what because you are spending fiat to pay your bills and then will use fiat to buy bitcoin to repay watoshi

Will let OP choose what he want. I am more than fine with non fiat pegged loan. Cheesy

Huh How are you buying BTC? by converting fiat, right? I thought it will be more helpful.

I am okay with paying 0.5BTC back. Please confirm so if you want that.

Sir, you mean to say that whether the BTC price goes up or down, I will still need to repay BTC0.5 only?
I ain't getting this clarified, so can you please explain briefly? Sorry for this as I am confused... It would be great if you post it with an example... Smiley

I'm glad you posted in, Vod... It's that I will need to wait till 20th and I got a warning that I will get my electricity and gas cut if I won't be able to pay in the next 7 days...

What place do you live in that they will cut off your power and heat in the middle of winter when you can prove to them you will pay the debt in just a few days?

I am from India... I got warned by them even whilst am providing them with proofs that I will get paid for sure but need to wait till 20th, but it's like I'm already late a month over the 10 days allowed after the last date for payment, and that's why I am worried about them doing so, and they also ain't willing to wait 7 more days after the time duration that that allowed.

PM'd. Might help you.
357  Economy / Speculation / Did Bitstamp make the crash to $270 zone? on: January 06, 2015, 06:13:49 AM
This is one of the things that came to my mind yesterday, as soon as I read that in Reddit.

Possible reconstruction of events...

1. Bitstamp notices the hack
2. Sells at the prevailing price.
3. Price goes down...

4. Announces it. Suspends service.
5. Buys them back at cheaper price? (happening right now?)


Explains why price is refusing to go down.

Motives:
Partial recovery of loss.
Protecting Bitcoin from bigger crash.


Or it could the hacker manipulating the market?

359  Economy / Speculation / Bitstamp rumor discussion thread - finds and speculation on: January 05, 2015, 01:27:39 PM
Facts:

1. https://www.bitstamp.net/ suspends service

2. Email received by customers.

3. Clearly says : one of Bitstamp’s operational wallets was compromised on January 4th, 2015."

4. Very confusing price moves. Slumps (to 260-270) before this. Stable after announcing this?


Rumors:

1. 18k bitcoins stolen?
reasonable proof is provided. well can't be sure tho.h
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2re2pw/18864_coins_stolen_from_stamp_that_doesnt_look/

High tx fee : Could be Bitstamp moving them or the hacker moving them.

2. Price slump directly corresponds to this?
Suspicious.

3.
What I find interesting is that they basically halted trading by shutting the site down.

Why halt trading? If there are not deposits nor withdrawals that should not matter on buying or selling.

Seems suspect to me.
They want to manipulate the market by preventing panic sells.

Lower prices in the longer term aren't good for their revenues which are based on percentage fees.

Yup, BitStamp crash protection squad leaps into action !   Cheesy

That and possibly to stop people moving BTC off the exchange via Ripple ...

Quote
Bitstamp users, who were using innovative methods such as Ripple to get their money out of Bitstamp, are now unable to perform any actions on the Bitstamp site

https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/wallet-breach-causes-bitcoin-exchange-bitstamp-to-temporarily-suspend-service/

Quite likely.

4. Bitstamp - mtgox2.0 . not very likely

Someone posted this address in a comment on some article. He said that was the address where his bitcoins were sent to. from his bitstamp address. (something like that).

So thief as 18,000 bitcoins from the alleged theft of bitcoins from bitstamp?

Is this true or not?
