this is one of the best concepts ever. but also quite controversial. no doubt this site will go viral fairly quickly.

my only suggestions are to know the laws surrounding this and know your rights.

I've been pondering this...I'm going to go through the ropes to acquire a retail and wholesellers license (it will be fully legal to own and distribute cannabis between consenting adults in Oregon this coming July but currently Multanomah county has already stated they no longer intend to prosecute ANY cannabis related cases, thus I'm effectively in the clear).   I will NOT be participating in the seed2tracking system, but I will file for any decision appeals against me on the grounds that tax revenue would otherwise be not collected from individual participants -> my system at least gives homegrowers within the state an opportunity to market their products to a wider audience and to legitimately report and pay tax revenues .  I think it will get even more attention if the state refuses to allow me to operate because I'm willing and able to pay the tax revenue.

I did this because initially I wanted to start a growing operation @ home but I realize it's still illegal to do this under current tenant landlord laws without consent - I'm sure my landlord is NOT cool with me growing bud, so this is an alternative.  This website allows me to participate in the Recreational Marijuana Business as well as allows others who cannot afford to setup retail shop. By taking Cash out of the picture, you increase the safety to the buyer before the transaction and the Seller after the transaction.  Also, participants can now take legal action  as I'm going to actively enforce what is available (only cannabis and byproducts of Cannabis are allowed)

IMHO OP is better off spending $1 per day or $30ish dollars pm on buying bitcoin and that's surely a much higher return overall.

Believe it or not, I don't actually want anything. But I suppose if a wealthy someone were to gift me desert virgin island (preferably with some type of fruit trees, definitely with drinking water) somewhere off the tip of South America, I'd go live the rest of my days there  Smiley I can do without the internet, tv, technology and everything else.

lies you want bitcoin (signature) :p



Thanks a lot!  Great way to derail my thread sir boobies!  You're the reason we need to self mod stuff for futureproofing fyi :p

An Oregon Marketplace
EDIT:  new pics shown now - old site shown in quote below:






And this too:





This is an open market system to allow all residents within the state of Oregon to Buy and sell Recreational Marijuana and Marijuana related products, anonymously, and for Bitcoin!  I can also offer payment in Fiat, however we Accept BTC only.  

I've just opened up the website and marketplace and wanted to promote it here as well.  I'm interested in any feedback anyone may have, but have set this to a Self-Moderated Thread to enforce staying on Topic.  Feel free to keep things archived Via IMGUR and I'll be happy to keep them here.  

What is this?

Weed4Bitcoin.Com is a website peer 2 peer marketplace that allows anyone in the State of Oregon to Buy and have Marijuana Delivered to them.  It only Accepts Bitcoin and is the first Clearnet Website to promote the retail sales of Marijuana directly between participants.  This is a for profit venture and I will be charging 5% up front.  

Why should I bother using this?

If you're a local within PDX you can go ahead and give this a shot. I've been pondering this for a while and I feel that this forum is the best place to mention my efforts as there isn't as many of you elsewhere.  I used to have the setup listed above but I essentially blew up my website on purpose and started over.  I have decided to hold my own inventory rather than dealing with holding a localized clearnet marketplace.  This way I can control what I'm offering and can give great customer service.

Support me, support the Bitcoin Economy, provide jobs for Oregon Homegrowers and Producers, and perhaps show the government how proper self-regulation can work.  This is a legitimate business entity and all collected taxes will be paid to the OLCC on a Quarterly Basis.  Anyone who currently sells or knows of sellers of Marijuana is encouraged to Apply to Become a Vendor


365  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Has anyone successfully evaded collections agencies by exchanging fiat into BTC? on: April 08, 2015, 11:24:21 PM
okay so here's your problem:  As soon as a judgement is made to garnish your wages, it will then become a liability of your employer, NOT you, to repay the money.  It doesn't matter if you have your check paid out in BTC or not, they will still work with your employer to deduct (usually around 20%) of your paycheck to meet legal garnishment obligations. 

Do NOT approach your employer to pay you in BTC if you know that your primary intention is to simply dodge paying the loan.  Now, its okay to ask him to pay you in BTC if that's indeed what you really want, but if you tell him that you're doing this to dodge debt obligations, He may get scared and decide to let you go if he's fickle about it.  You may be an awesome employee, but some people are iffy like that and he may fire you to simply get around having to deal with it. 


What state do you live in?  You may have legal remedy.

I'm curious to know and am just asking as a constructive clarification:  How did the price of your court representation become so high?

Was it for the retainer costs or the cost of due process?   I, as an individual don't have 200,000 USD to pay lawyers, what would happen if I had no representation other than myself?  Would I remain incarcerated or would I also be able to request leave on my Own Recognizance?

An easy cop-out is =>=> oh then you just want to build youtube, or stackexchange!  I know that's the easy cop-out answer, but I want to know what others want so I can gather ideas on what People, overall, would need to see to make cryptocurrency a desire technology to invest time/labor into.
372  Other / Off-topic / What do you want? [Serious] on: April 07, 2015, 03:29:30 AM
I wasn't sure where to post this question so I figured I'd ask you, fellow bitcoin community members.

What do you want?  Not so much "Why are you here?"  or "What do you want from BTC?"  but more...."What do you want?"

I want warm sand (a nice beach with sunny weather), great tasting food and drinking water consistently available, comfortable clothes, internet access, my laptop, access to power, and perhaps an address to receive stuff purchased from the internet.

I want happiness through providing meaningfulness to others who seek happiness through providing meaningfulness.

I almost wrote (I want to become really good at writing software and web applications- like scary good - good enough to write a library from scratch by recall)  <- but that's not totally true, I'd like to do that stuff so I could feel cool about it and know its an easy method towards making an income for myself, but I'd rather not care about income at all if I were given those things above

What do you want?

373  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: 100 % Cryptsy Clone Open Source Release on: April 03, 2015, 03:28:46 PM
adding a new folder for every supported coin is probably not good idea since it can be handled in a DRY (Don't repeat yourself) way. but still, nice to see it open source, thanks!

thx you for your comment everyone Smiley

you right but there is verification process before so it wont work

@AwesomeTRADER :for the pentest you free to run any exploit scanner , i cannot say you will not find any  exploit , but sql is PDO prepared statement so i doubt any injection is possible here, but exploit need a POC not just a alarm (what common public exploit scanner does)

this project still have a lot of work anyway but it work pretty well for now and all aspect of cryptsy are covered (except node.js)

im in bitcoin from 2009 but i code little bit php and i had developer from a school in south of france to code  the engine  

Great Job by the way, forking it now.



@all:  here's some relevant context as well

why/why not?
375  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you have a feeling BTC has slowed down a bit? on: April 03, 2015, 03:14:04 PM
Well it all comes to the BTC adoption rate. I simply cannot belive that 6 years into the game the market still cannot consume these couple thousands BTC produced every day. I do not believe early adopters dump a lot so this slowing down caused by the price drop which s caused by supply being over demand must be the reason behind the lack of faster BTC development.

It will be interesting to see what happens if/when bitcoin gets to 3k or more...will many adopters hold or cash out?

I look at BTC as an investment, but I probably wouldn't exit unless BTC reaches less than 5 dollars a coin and EVEN THEN, I would probably just triple down anyway on the notion that we're back to the good ol speculation days with huge volatility.  As often as I'm around the ecosystem though, I would probably see signals that its worse than just a currency crash - like fundamental thefts everywhere along with movement of millions of early coins - that would probably signal me to exit my bitcoin holdings. 

As someone else here said, the network effect will be what determines crypto 2.0's winer.  If we use sidechains and they are indeed superior, many (including me) will transfer a little bit of BTC to those new chains, but will keep BTC as a true stored reserve of value in case the new instrument crashes, or even perhaps, we speculate and trade with those pairs instead of USD btc. 
376  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you have a feeling BTC has slowed down a bit? on: April 03, 2015, 03:08:25 PM
I still read the boards every now and then but I am out. Completely. Bitcoin solves nothing for me but it was a great way to make extra cash since I discovered it. But the easy money is gone for me personally and I think the people like me will move on to other things. Very neat idea though but just another type of fiat currency in monetary economics. A house built on sand in other words. I highly doubt it will have any value in 20 years as something else will replace it. Internet users are a fickle bunch.

I've witnessed that too. People are moving on. There's a small fraction of the users here now that were here when I first registered. Even the evangelistic born again Bitcoiners are gone now. I always chalked it up to kids graduating, growing up and starting their real lives. Everyone is idealistic in college. Save the whales, save the trees, free (insert current martyr here) slowly becomes feed the kids, pay the mortgage, please the boss.

I'm not gone, I'm just on other platforms more often.  I find that a lot of people here seem to ask the noob stuff all too often.  I think you can find many of us still active on places like facebook twitter reddit instagram has some... This place is good, but relatively, but I wish that the marketplace section was more active. 
377  Other / Meta / [AREA REQUEST] Can we have an opsec section on the site? or even Security? on: April 03, 2015, 02:42:57 PM
I'm asking because I know it fits into technical discussion and project developments. But it's not here. 

I wanted to know what the primary benefit of SSL would be for a site that only takes bitcoin that has other stuff on lock like escaping all values permissions set properly to file access, etc.  I mean SSL is cheap but, its effectively a barrier to entry if perceived as an inferior platform to transact with if SSL is absent - catch my drift guys?
378  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you have a feeling BTC has slowed down a bit? on: April 02, 2015, 12:33:49 AM
We are in the 1994 phase of the interenet IMO.

The phase everyone thought that is as far as the web goes.. no where.

I currently have a phone in my hand connected to the web more powerful than any computer from 94. 

Hands of steel, HODL your wealth in your own hands.

if this is 1994 in Bitcoin, what were those CRAZY stories of govt and corruption and scandal for the internet back then?  I remember napster as the beginning and a bunch of dcma stuff but thats it.
379  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: s1 Revenue per day on: April 02, 2015, 12:12:37 AM
S1 s useless, why would you buy such an old miner? Better buy some cloud shares if you want to mine. However, in your case I would not buy anything until you read a bit how bitcoin mining works and how mining difficulty adjusts.

DON'T BUY CLOUD SHARES.
NEVER CLOUD MINE.

99% of them are scams. The other 1% are overpriced. I haven't known a single person who has profited in a legitimate cloud mining operation.

okay i know this no longer applies, but back in the day (like end 2013) I put my cex.io referral id in my signature and got like 30GHs of free cloudmining for about 5 months as a result:  my cost??  A few posts here and there - it was a signature campaign before people started offering signature campaigns. 

The moral of the story is that Cloud mining is not profitable, if paid for, but is absolutely profitable if its free Smiley

MLM was hard won by companies like AMWAY, a billion Dollar company. It exists numerous technical articles about MLM. If u get the clue, u will see, that this is a big opportunity for fuelcoin and their education campaign!
