Hm yeah except price is higher than I could get them for If you want bitcoins immediately, use LocalBitcoins. If you want bitcoins for the lowest possible price, use Dwolla to transfer dollars to CampBX and buy them there. |

It's hard to be explain, but their web site is subtly wrong in a way that makes me not trust the site or the company behind it. |

So tell me if this is right, I just keep checking my bank account and when I see that the funds have been transferred into it, then I can hit the "Release transaction" button so the buyer can receive his/her bitcoins from escrow? Yes. LocalBitcoins only handles the bitcoin portion of the sale they do not and can not know the status of the bank payments, cash transfers, or anything that isn't the movement of bitcoins. Escrow is there to protect the buyer, so they can pay the seller with the assurance that the seller must deliver the bitcoins if payment is rendered. As the bitcoin seller, it's up to you to make sure you actually get paid - LocalBitcoins can't take care of that for you. Once you've been paid you release the bitcoins to the buyer using the button on the web site. The bitcoins will then instantly show up in the buyer's LocalBitcoins wallet. |

Escrow is always for bitcoins.
It means your (as the BTC seller) bitcoins are locked up such that you can not cancel the sale yourself, and it's safe for the buyer to pay you.

By the way: is it really a policy, that registration at the forum can not come through Tor? (or public proxies for that matter...)
Yes. It's to make it more difficult for banned users to come back. You should hire someone to create an account for you. Why not just let people pay the forum directly in order to evade the Tor registration block as part of the signup procedure? |

I have an associate with both tungsten and depleted uranium rings and he hasn't seemed to suffer any ill effects of daily wearing them Have him try atomizing them and inhaling the resulting cloud and see what happens. |

Corporatism actually I would say  Benito Mussolini was being somewhat disingenuous when he said, "Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power", because corporate power is state power. Only state power is capable of enforcing a rule that some people are immune from liability while others are not. |

Let me tell you first that I am an ardent supporter of capitalism, but not of kepto or narcissic government sponsored capitalism. What people are referring to when they talking about the evils of capitalism is more accurately called "fascism". |

There are many Bitcoin clients. Any change that implements a change that "breaks" the Bitcoin protocol will not be accepted by older clients. This is called a hard fork. So unless people upgrade to a client that understands the change, that change made will have no impact. Not only that, there now exists a second complete implementation (Bits of Proof) and a third on the way (btcd). It would be great if the nodes in the network were evenly split into about half a dozen independent implementations. |

Cool feature, though it would be really great if they could work on support staff response time.

Something that could work, if the local shop has a web browser available to the cashier, is to use LocalBitcoins as a payment processor.

I'm more interested in the volume data, as they can verify that.

I'm very skeptical when people claim Bitcoin will bring about a massive social revolution, or that governments can't control it. Satoshi explicitly disavowed such a claim and I agree with him. The US Government can terminate Bitcoin globally, if it so chooses, which is why extensive lobbying is so essential. It really lives or dies at the whims of some congressmen. You've got the correlation/causation backwards. Bitcoin will not cause a social revolution. Bitcoin will be successful as a consequence of an ongoing social revolution. |

Can someone please make a chart like this by total BTC volume exchanged, instead of splitting it into the various currency pairs? |

How hard would it be to allow users to optionally attach a PGP key to their account so that all email updates your site sends are encrypted?

Good luck patching Android with third parties between Google and your phone. It bet Cyanogenmod users get access to the patches first. |

Personally, I think this is a very bad time to start pissing governmental people off, since the regulatory framework is starting to be put in place. So you're saying I shouldn't publish my illustrated step-by-step tutorial designed to teach people in the sex work industry how to use Bitcoin? |
