Finally, something showed up in my wallet. What a relive.
3482  Economy / Securities / Re: GLBSE is offline We will update our users on Saturday. on: October 15, 2012, 10:38:48 PM
Received e-mail a couple of hours ago, but no coins.


"Your GLBSE account has been partially processed. 90% of your funds have been returned to you with this payment. Once we recieve the remaining funds from our treasurer and secretary the final payment will be made and you will be informed. We will also inform you when we process your assets, allowing you to continue your relationship with your issuer."

Nefario already has all the user funds required to pay out 100% of claims.

I got this mail as well and have not recieved any BTC yet. I also don't get what it means.

Does it mean that 90% of all users have been paid and I'm one of the unlucky 10%?

Or that 90% of my funds have been paid to me (and somehow have disappeared on the way to me  Roll Eyes)?

I got the 90% e-mail too, no payment received yet.

Personally, I think it's even less than 200.000. If only 10% of all users would run a full node, it would be about 40.000 BTC Users. Nuber of total Nodes connected = 4337.

Source http://bitcoinstatus.rowit.co.uk/ --> some nice stats there.

Hi pyramining.

I deposited a small ASIC amount to try it out. Now the deposit is "sitting" in my account waiting to be used for ASIC, and therefore doesn't give any returns. So its basically a prepurchase.

But, as I understand it, the hashing power, once available, will be spilt through all accounts based on their deposits.

So poeple making normal deposits, will get FPGA returns now and ASIC returns later, while ASIC deposits will only get the later returns.

So what should my be intention to provide funds for the ASICs?

A simple way to address this issue would be IMO, to raise the bonus for people make ASIC pre-deposits (maybe by 5%).

Once ASICs are available this bonus will return to the standard 10%. This way people depositing for ASIC infrastructure would benefit from their early investment.

Interesting. this really shows how tiny Bitcoin still is.
3488  Economy / Services / Re: pyramining links, let's share them here on: October 14, 2012, 08:51:47 PM
Well, lets give it another try:

http://www.pyramining.com/referral/hrp7ymc3q

Like with all other reveals, you get 10% bonus by joining through them.

Also its worth to mention, that you now can deposit funds that explicit will be used for purchasing ASIC equipment, simply add 1111 as the last four digits in a 8 digit deposit to you deposit, see:

12.341           Current infrastructure (no 1111 as the last 4 decimals)
12.34101111   ASIC infrastructure (has 8 decimals and ends with 1111)
12.3411111    Current infrastructure (only 7 decimals)
12.00001111   ASIC infrastructure (has 8 decimals and ends with 1111)

Will splitting deposits work?

For example, I want to invest 1 BTC and make two deposits in the same account, one 0.5 BTC and one 0.50001111, then my account will increase by 1 BTC but 0.5 will not be used to buy FPGAs but explicit for ASICs?

Hi pyramining,

I have seen that you have added "ASIC GH cost" to your page.

Grate to see you are staring to go that road.

Care to post some Informations?
3491  Bitcoin / Press / Re: 2012-10-07 digitaljournal.com - Op-Ed: How safe is Bitcoin? on: October 14, 2012, 01:05:28 PM
Despite from having bitcoin in its name, this article has absolutely nothing to do with bitcoin.

It's basically some self proclaimed "reporter" whining about how he got scammed with e-gold.

He isn't even bother to inform himself about bitcoin.

The right name for this article would be "How I got scammed with e-gold and now think every internet thing is a scam"

Really not worth reading (I want my 5 minutes back!)
3492  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Nefario on: October 13, 2012, 12:06:59 PM
I am pretty sure he is not paying at this point.  I hope I am proven wrong.

There's only one option left, and since we know where he lives (image is a link):




Ahh, my Media Player froze, I it stuck and a loop and I can't end it.

Someone help me... please.

I ... can't... take... it any more

I really like the "Ƀ", just because the other popular symbol can so easily be confused with the Thai Baht symbol.

And "ß" is really now option that just the sz symbol in German (spoken ss, "sharp S").
3497  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Time for some good news, BTC Userbase (Full Nodes) grows again. on: October 11, 2012, 10:26:31 PM
Wow this is pretty excellent news. The reason this had been falling forever was the macro trend of users switching primarily to e-wallets, and I doubt that trend will stop. So for the standard client number to be rising -despite- this macro trend is extremely positive.

Exactly. I think that this is very good news but I strongly disagree that it's a good indicator of the actual Bitcoin userbase. Full nodes are only a portion of the userbase because so many people use Bitcoin directly from web wallets and exchanges and sites such as Silk Road.

Also, this graph hides the real amount of unique Bitcoin full nodes quite well. Even in late 2011 we had 800 000 unique (based on IP) full nodes online in a 3 month period. Apparently a large amount of nodes are only online occasionally.

When we combine that data with the fact that certain nodes represent a large amount of users behind the node, we can conclude that the larger Bitcoin userbase is well over 1 million. That is the occasional users though, the number gets a lot smaller when we count active users only.

Important thing is that the actual userbase probably grows. And I still think its the best indicator, I didn't mean to switch it 1to1 to how much users we have, but it's the best measurable variable I know of to calculate actual userbase from (the other variables, like % using webwallets, are unknown, though).

Can someone give a few details to us linguistically disadvantaged folks? Guessing its a TV show, if so is it a popular one?

Arte is a French/German TV network. They focus on Culture, europe and Informations. They are IMO one of the few senders with a good and informative program.

They made an article about Bitcoin in their prime time news. In German and in French.

The article can be considered BTC positive.

They interviewed a barkeeper who accepts bitcoin, some guy from goggle, a member of the Iceland parliament and some guy from the "Bundesverband Digitale Wirtschaft" - German Association of the Digital Economy.
