Why do you need BTC 3.5 for your idea? I don't think anyone would pay without seeing a prototype, I mean we don't even have a code sample to see if your skills are capable of doing a project like this. Just give us some security here, cause this project isn't really that simple.
Servers and potentially the hiring of a designer. I can code, but I can NOT make things look pretty. Here is my Github: https://github.com/JaxkrHere is an article about me (provides my identity and prevents me from scamming): http://www.timescall.com/news/longmont-local-news/ci_23032800/sunset-middle-school-student-wins-first-longmont-hackathonUnfortunately, I can't use those prize funds for this project as they were directly invested in my college account, to avoid taxes.  I hope this doesn't come off as mean, but learn to bootstrap. I think this is actually a great lesson for a young person to learn. Cause in the real world without a prototype no one gives funds. Even without testing the market you don't really get funds. I think you should try and do as much as you can with little or no funds. Your a programmer, try and get BTC3.5 by working for someone else. Also don't tell your parents this but college is a scam. I just graduated from college (23yrs old), and let me tell you I am not even going to use my degree (Computer Science), cause I got into bitcoins so early, it makes no sense for me to get a job. I am actually starting my own company (of the many companies I started). I think your really talented, and you should be hustling in the bitcoin community. You will be rich trust me, especially since you know python that is one of those scripting languages, that great for web or desktop. So get out and HUSTLE, just do what you got to do. Especially now since you live at home with no expenses you can bank all this money. Wait until your 17, you be driving a Benz maybe even a ferrari to school  Take my advice, bootstrap, hustle, you will be big... And when your starting your own companies you come to me for funding ok. Define "hustle" and "bootstrap". I assume bootstrap means to have a reusable code base for every project, but I'm unsure about hustling, unless I'll be playing some pool. |

I think this is a very much needed project! Wish you the best with it.
Thank you! I've begun a little work on some really early backend stuff, and moltenmich offered to make a better logo! Perfect. A logo would be nice! Sounds like you are aiming for August to start development? I'm aiming for August to be nearly done with development. |

First off that is web sockets, so you would probably get every ticker, and most the time it is the same price. It also keeps the client having an open socket to mt gox. Also web sockets are kinda iffy they break a lot. While the short answer you can do web sockets, you can't do javascript polling, cause I know for chrome that sends up a red flag of cross site scripting. This is true, however it's a solution that works on a standalone HTML page, which appears to be what thread starter wanted. |

Critical question: is the encryption and decryption client side or server side? If it's the former, this is huge. If it's the latter, interesting but not that much. All encryption will be client side. |

The dev blog is now up! blog.frog.liAll updates will be posted there. Bitmessage is a great system. However, it seems like Bitmessage won't become wildly popular unless it can be made ridiculously easy to use. Frog will solve this by being a simple Bitmessage client for the web. How will Frog work?Frog will function very similarly to the Electrum Bitcoin client. The user's client reads data from the network off of a pool of servers. When you open the Frog application in your browser, it automatically connects to an available Frog server that runs the complete Bitmessage software. When you send a message, your browser completes the proof-of-work necessary for propagation, and sends it to a Frog node. Then, the Frog node follows the standard protocol to send the message to the Bitmessage network. But, wouldn't this decrease decentralization?Not really. Since the birth of Electrum, the community has put up dozens of servers for the client to use. This has resulted in the creation of reliable supernodes that benefit the entire Bitcoin network. Just like Electrum, anyone can put up a Frog server for the clients to use. So the servers will not be controlled by a centralized authority. Also, since a proof-of-work is required for sending Bitmessages, attacking these servers will be very difficult. Frog nodes will have all the protections a regular Bitmessage node has. So Frog will result in the creation of supernodes, which will help the entire Bitmessage network Will it be open source?Yes. What's your timeline?I am currently on my summer vacation and have a lot of free time on my hands. I estimate having a funtional beta by August. Frog will help conquer surveillance by putting great tools into more hands. Help us make it a reality.Funding was successful, and work begun a while ago. Here is the GitHub.

Thanks
I did that
The weird thing once i quit the client and restart it the contacts disappear.
Try renaming the electrum.dat file and restoring from your Seed. Maybe the electrum.dat file got corrupted Tried this. No dice. |

OK. After restarting my computer I am now able to import private keys again, but labels and contacts still do not save.
|

Yes
If Bitcoin became illegal, nothing would change, aside from a lot of media exposure, and you know what they say: any publicity is good publicity.
And a lot more Tor usingA girl knowing Tor? That's too much for me, you're definitely a guy a his basement Definitely. The Hidden Wiki clearly states this. http://3suaolltfj2xjksb.onion/hiddenwiki/index.php?title=Girls |

The least cumbersome way to do it, while still being very safe, would be Electrum.
You can import your vanity address in a few seconds then set it to 'prioritize' in the receive
tab so that payments will be sent out from that address if it has any funds in it.
Exactly. This is the ideal solution. However, Electrum is currently having some issues. |

Also, I can't import valid private keys anymore. Don't know what's up with that. Here's an example with a throwaway private key that I generated for this example  5JcYx5bzeMMMp1WXia7J7N9987aXxujQuvPfvWUsF5Jad447rUm |

Hey,
I've noticed that 1.8 introduces a lot of bugs that weren't formerly present in the Electrum software.
Here's a list:
1. I'm unable to save contacts.
2. I'm unable to save address labels.
3. I'm no longer able to add contacts by right clicking.
Thank you!

Hello.
I just noticed - Electrum does not save contacts. I tested this on Ubuntu as well as windows. Has anyone else run into this?
Yes. No saving of contacts or address labels on 1.8. |

I just tried creating a fresh wallet on OS X but it worked fine for me. Is there anything non-standard about your installation by any chance? Are you using command line arguments to start it? Could you start a terminal and enter
open /Applications/Electrum.app/Contents/MacOS/Electrum
And tell me if you get any errors or warnings if you try to add labels.
Just did. No errors or warnings. Just a blank console screen. Assuming I only need to hit enter while editing to save a label. |

Greed is the only way to motivate people, its an unfortunate reality.
It would be cool if there were cancer research pools that paid in BTC. Would be a good way for CPUs to earn money. |

I'd love to join in with Bitmessage.
But, has anyone made an install file (.dmg) for Mac yet?
Yes. But it requires installation of OpenSSL. I tried to build a standalone app, but to no avail, as OpenSSL cant be bundled. You should follow these instructions for now: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=229414.msg2414060

Just tested it by sending a message to someone from Reddit. They must not be on though, no reply. My understanding is that eventually, if he does not reply the message vanishes?
If he doesn't come ONLINE, the message disappears. They can only be downloaded dependably for two days after they are sent. |

Are you still selling ?
Yes. |

Hello,
I received a copy of Terraria as a gift, but I already own it on another platform.
I'm willing to sell it for 90 now, or you can offer less.
Honestly, I'll sell it for almost any price.
