I would hope so, if not, I am not in!

I would change all Bitcoin related images I use on any sites to the B$ symbol if enough people are down.  I would like that official too.  No one would have to download any special characters.   Does any other currency use two characters?

You know a forum is nice when it has a "Flames" section with no posts in it https://bitcoin.org.uk/forums/forum/43-flames/

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=46646.msg565883#msg565883 seems to be making an interesting letter to send. I think it could use some work, but it doesn't suck.   I think Bit Pay needs to be backed more.  They don't need people writing emails for them, just people to actually use their Bitcoin to buy things or start using Bitcoin to make purchases for things they use cash or other forms of currency on.

I am not sure where you got such a negative view of the technology lol.  On top of a decent ad replacement imo.  I have seen someone have that either set up the page or was going to, that has it donate to NORML.  So another use would be charity.   Another idea is if Wikipedia were to implement it, it could run properly without worrying about donations.  I think there is a lot of positives that could come, instead of focusing on the one negative of a botnet abusing it, as a botnet can abuse a lot of good things, doesn't mean they shouldn't exist imo

The user would know they are mining either for themselves or for the site.
I 100% disagree.  But if I had the perception of what you think the site would be used for, then I understand.
Yes, there is a misunderstanding going on here.  Where is stealing anything coming into play?
lol, duh, of course not, but I make sure that the people who use the sites I have it on, know it is running.  I see the technology as a great way to avoid having to have ads on a web site while at the same time ensure costs can be recouped.  I have no unethical intentions, I have been using BitcoinPlus on the Bitcoin Porn web site for months now, it has been advertised that it is using it since day one, along with a link to information on how it works.   

A lot of technologies can be abused, but this one has a lot of good potential imo.

casascius, there is definitely some interesting options here.  That CNET idea sounds better the more I think about it.  As you could easily contact a few news sources regarding this.  All the news reports of the big hacking incidents with Bitcoin after the fact, Gox, Mybitcoin, whatever.   This time the news can possibly take care of some of the investigating.   Might expose some flaws in Bitcoin we aren't seeing without that outside perspective being more hands on with what is going on, as they always do seem to report well after things are done, and usually misreported.

Hopefully coming soon.  I am keeping an eye out on it.    BitcoinPlus is more or less just technology that was never perfected, so is old and nearly useless in the current implication.   If anyone could motivate the maker to show him how damn profitable it would be, I'm sure he would be on it.

Well someone is hitting at the right time.  Look Mike, you are on CNET!

Edit: Yesterdays news it seems, just caught it in my news feed though.  You should contact CNET and let them know of your issues regarding this.  See if they want to spin a story on Bitcoin and anonymous attackers.

In my defense, I had Photoshop open anyways.  Seemed like something people in this thread needed checked so they can go onto the next stage of whatever is going to come from this thread lol

Bitcoin Porn, with quote marks and spaces.  Same result without quote marks but still having the space.  Finally, the same result without quotes or spaces.



My inspiration for non-Americans, plus enough has happened since BP to take them out of peoples minds

I hate that I checked, but, here it is at 600%, not only is the 8 and 2 fine, but I thought they looked too close together if not aligned properly, but it turns out spacing it accurate as well.  You can compare to the 2 to the one further down by the zero and how this font lacks good spacing.

I am curious to see the ruling come out for how crypto currencies will be defined.  Otherwise, as long as people know it is not decentralized and is closed source, buyer beware.

I suggest deleting or locking this thread and just starting a new one.  Though I thought thread creators had the ability to move posts, I honestly am not sure.

Will you accept it sooner if SomethingAwful allows you to join by paying in BTC?

I want want more than ever, now I would have a cool trinket and I would be able to support MemoryDealers

But holy shit at this still https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=49826.0  I think I might buy one, but I will not tell anyone lol

Curiosity on this, because I notice these threads regarding the devs.  Are some just not wanting to be listed?   

When the products come that people actually desire or need, that come from the markets of one of the digital currencies, expect it to be unique and to draw actual users who wish to use the currency.   All of these are still possibilities to grab a large market imo, I fear that SolidCoin will be the one to do it first, grab the first big business' that is willing to take a jump in and help draw in new users by the shitload.    It is one of the positive sides to that centralized coin, full control, that no doubt a larger business wants to hear, they don't want to be affected by exchange rates.

As far as Bitcoin itself, more people need to back Bit-Pay and every single company they are marketing to.  Those are the people who could give a shit less about the exchange rates and are still taking the risk to incorporate BTC into their revenue.   That is going to make differences, when people who don't care are profiting from Bitcoin.

Yes, I completely missed this.

If someone can get this technology going, I will help promote the fuck out of it, if it works. 

Use this as the model http://bitcoinplus.com, except dont disappear after you create the site
