The funding has 71 days left. I think the sooner we reach the target, the more news coverage we get.

This would be brilliant for DOGE. Put them in the spotlight again for all the right reasons.
Over 7 million DOGE donated so far.
72 days left. Come on Shibes, we've got a car to wrap!

Lawyers for MtGox have announced that they've found 200,000 of the lost BTC!!!
Was it a heist, or just some lost private keys?

Sorry, but looking for quite a bit more than that.
At current rate, that's $73 worth of BTC.
3506  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin + Litecoin = Nokia ? on: March 20, 2014, 02:21:29 AM
Bitcoin is the mobile phone. Bitcoin is a technology, not a company.

Everyone who made analogy such as Altavista/Google, Myspace/Facebook, or that Nokia one, failed to understand that Bitcoin is a fucking technology. Bitcoin is like the Internet, the mobile phone, the automobile, the electricity, the fire.

So what is Litecoin or any other alt?
There can't me multiple technologies all serving the same purpose.
Bitcoins concept is the technology. It's being used by other cryptos though.
Only a few can dominate and all I'm saying is that could bitcoin be overtaken by something it indirectly created?
Bitcoin is TCP/IP, LTC is UDP, other altcoins are other protocol.

95% of internet transmissions use TCP/IP, 5% use UDP, other protocols are basically not use.

A protocol is a technology that can be easily amended and improved, but it's also a technology which derived its usefulness from the number of machines using it. Even if you create something vastly better than TCP/IP for conveying data to other computer, good luck trying to overcome TCP/IP which is used basically by every computer on the planet.

I don't think you quite get what in saying

3509  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin + Litecoin = Nokia ? on: March 20, 2014, 12:33:39 AM
Was just thinking and would like to know everyones thoughts.
This is just a fun debate. Nothing serious.

Would it be right to call Bitcoin and Litecoin the crypto equivalent of what Nokia was to the mobile phone market.
At the start, Nokia was the pioneer and innovation behind mobile phones.
However, after a long dominant streak, Apple and Samsung have outgrown what Nokia was and have dominated the market.
Could the same be true with BTC and LTC?

They were the founding cryptos. These other alts don't offer much competition. BTC and LTC will for the foreseeable future remain on top.
However, what's the likelihood of a new alt slowly growing and ultimately succeeding both BTC and LTC?

If so, when do you see this happening?

Just some weird thought a guy riding a unicorn on the moon told me Wink

I've watched the #1 Maxcoin "richlist" on MCXNow climb from roughly 54,000 to 148,000 coins and now there's two with 100,000 plus.

Gee, I wonder why they'd do that?

Maxcoin now slowly rising, is it time to buy back in?

Hope springs eternal.
Max does have the TV show and Twitter to heat things up again at any time.
OMG, don't miss out.  Cheesy

Too right.
Thing is, he's used them both before. Didn't stop the demise of the currency though.
As one of the best posts in this thread wrote, MAX is like poo.
Not a worthwhile coin.
No matter what, besides for BTC and LTC, nothing will compare. - My opinion Smiley

No problem.
Found this site.
It appears they allow you to make single piece orders. They seem very reasonably priced.
Here's the link to the Fir Tree Mount and the Arrow Head (Similar one).

http://www.standardelectricsupply.com/index.jsp?path=product&part=2263068


I'm not sure if the links are exactly what type you're looking for, but they have a range on their site so I'm sure you'll be able to find it Smiley

3513  Economy / Services / Re: identify these zip ties along with a seller and earn $25 in bitcoin on: March 19, 2014, 10:35:00 PM
Here goes.
I'm not too sure which exact cable ties were used, and I'm not sure which would be the best replacements, but I'd assume that the stronger the better.

The 1st one is a Fir Tree mount.
They can be bought with different max weight capabilities and lengths.
The best I found was here:

http://www.hellermanntyton.us/ProductDetail.aspx?p=157-00097

If thats not the exact one, look through here, it'll show you all the other Fir Tree Mount ties with their max lengths and weight capabilities.

http://www.hellermanntyton.us/products.aspx?cat=1043

Regarding the 3rd tie, I'm pretty sure its a type of arrowhead tie.
The best I found was this. Bear in mind it isn't the same, but it should do the job. Again, you can browse through their types. Some don't have pictures displayed, but they're all pretty similar.

http://www.hellermanntyton.us/ProductDetail.aspx?p=126-00603 (Black is also available).

The general category is here:

http://www.hellermanntyton.us/products.aspx?cat=1038

I can't quite work out the 2nd one exactly from the picture. I'd assume its a type of screw in mount.
They can also be found on the same site.

Hope this helps. Smiley

Thanks for the pics.
You don't need to show that much (telephone bill was unnecessary).
How much are you asking for per cube?

Thanks

So you admit your a scammer? And no I'm not my account got hacked I'm still refunding him.

His trust score has now been updated.
I think most people will now stay away from him from now on.
It's sad to think people would actually be as pathetic as him.
Anyway, I'll post all the info I have about him later on a separate thread.
3516  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: 8 x Asic Miner Cube on: March 17, 2014, 02:53:34 PM
At least for me this guy is a scammer or a timewaster unless he post a photo with his nick of the cubes


Or he just has other things on his plate at the moment.
He could be busy or have more important affairs to deal with.
You've got to be a bit more trusting. Wait and see Smiley
3517  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: will the bitcoin reach $1000 one day...? on: March 17, 2014, 02:51:52 PM
My question is whether it will touch $400 again before reaching $1000.

Nobody will know until it happens.
I'm not saying it will, I'm just saying that there's no way if predicting it.
If you believe that it will rise above $1k, then anything below that is worthwhile.
3518  Economy / Speculation / Re: Methods of Prediction on: March 17, 2014, 02:50:11 PM
Reading charts whilst being up to date with the latest news.
If you've heard speculation regarding BTC that will portray it negatively, predict a fall. (However, look at graph trends as well to predict the next natural shape of the graph should all factors remain constant - ie no bad news).
3519  Economy / Digital goods / [WTB] £15/£25 iTunes Voucher on: March 17, 2014, 02:32:38 PM
