Thanks for the quick reply. I totally missed the tilde.
Is there any way to get into that directory with the finder? I can't see it in my home directory. How can I open that file with TextEdit?
And the main follow-up question: how do I run Bitcoin from the command line? I mean bitcoind, which I believe comes installed with the Bitcoin app. I can't find this file anywhere.

I am still struggling to get bitcoin working from the command line. I tried to copy a new bitoin.conf file into /Library/Application\ Support/Bitcoin, but messed something up and the directory disappeared. So I uninstalled Bitcoin, and installed the new version 0.8.1. Now when I do cd /Library/Application\ Support, I see: -rwxr-xr-x@ 1 gmiwenht staff 3493 Mar 24 18:06 Bitcoin when I try to cd into that, it tells me -bash: cd: Bitcoin: Not a directory When I open my client, it still somehow finds my old wallet, which I thought I deleted. Can someone please help me, in really simple terms: 1) Where is my wallet.dat file? 2) How do I get into the Bitcoin directory? 3) How can I save a bitcoin.conf file there? 4) How do I run bitcoin from the command line? |

There is no bitcoin bubble. People who say this are generally speaking without any knowledge of bitcoin at all.

Where is the bitcoin.conf file located?
Thanks, I saw his response, but I cannot find it there. So I thought maybe it is somewhere else. 31-35-122:Applications gmiwenht$ cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/Bitcoin
31-35-122:Bitcoin gmiwenht$ ls -l
total 1117104

I am using OSX 10.8.2.
I want to get bitcoin running from the command line. I am doing this for several reasons, mainly just to learn more about what goes on under the hood, but also with a view to writing some applications.
Right now I am having the most basic problem: figuring out how/where bitcoin is installed. For the whole time I have been involved with Bitcoin I have been using blockchain.info, so I have been ignorant of the inner workings of the Bitcoin protocol.
I downloaded Bitcoin-Qt, which I thought was just bitcoind with a GUI. This gave me a .dmg file, which I then installed into my Applications directory. I now cd to /Applications and all I can see is Bitcoin-Qt.app. I am as new to OSX as I am to the Bitcoin client. I thought that OSX worked similarly to linux systems. So what is this monolithic Bitcoin-Qt.app file? How can I run the command line version, bitcoind?
I am looking for simple step-by-step instructions which will allow me to achieve the following:
1. Set up bitcoin on OSX so that I can run ./bitcoind from the terminal.
2. Set up a new wallet.dat and import some existing private keys from blockchain.info.
3. Figure out how to check balance, send, receive, etc. (i.e. make use of the same basic functionality that blockchain.info gives me)
Cheers,

Why are there "new buyers" on Monday? Is there something special happening tomorrow, or are you just referring to the usual post-weekend deposits?

Nice thread. Just wanted to let you know, I did the same thing 6 months ago. I took out 6k and invested. Worked out pretty well for me  It's not stupid. Just don't play SD with it. If you are not trading you can auto-lend on bitfinex, and still get a better APR than your bank is charging you. Do you believe in Bitcoin? If you do, then do it. You are already in the 1% simply because you have heard of Bitcoin and post here. It really is easy money. Take it. PS. just remember, it's not as if your money is going to disappear overnight. So the price might tank a little, and you will owe a little more. Bitcoin is not going to die overnight. Or to put it another way, sure it can die overnight, but that would be a catastrophe. It would be just as much of a catastrophe as your bank going bankrupt. It's a risk, but it is an educated risk. |

This thread is pretty pathetic. If this is really the sum total of what this forum has to offer in defense of technical analysis then it really paints it in a much worse light than I originally thought.

"Since there exist time-dependent autocorrelations in price data, past performance sometimes correlates with future results."
This is a general observation, but it does not support any specific technical analysis results. The fact that autocorrelations exist does not allow you to write arbitrary laws about these correlations. Your laws need to be stated as theorems and backed by proofs. Otherwise all you are saying is "observation: heads sometimes follows tales", therefore any time heads follows tales we can invoke technical analysis in support of the observation.
The problem with technical analysis is that due to its fractal nature it is unclear what time scales to consider. Any analysis that works on one time scale can be completely contradicted on another time scale.
As much as I enjoy looking at charts, the bottom line is there is nothing to it. It's just alchemy.

If you never heard of bitcoin and were looking at this chart, where would you call bottom?   |
