Craigslist really is a roll the dice, i've sold computers cars etc on there and you really have to be careful. I guess you have to be attuned to how the person is acting about the trade. I personally would never sell bitcoin on craigslist

The spam one gets from craigslist is enough of a deterrent for me to stay away unless I'm having or looking for a fire sale.

Disable email replies, put in phone #.

Yeah a lot of spam from there, and the other problem is taking an ad down but it actually not being "down" until weeks later so if you've sold an item it's still listed. It's ridiculous, I got a phone call not a couple weeks ago about a phone I listed probably half a year ago. Of course I don't have that phone.

Easy, no. Just a matter of coding.

Safe, yes. You don't pay BTC until you have the item in front of you and the seller confirms their address and doesn't let you leave with it until confirming receipt of BTC.

Weakening means that magnetic field is fading away.

Yeah, come on.

As long as Texas has its fucking Jim Crow "gun control" laws, blacks and legit hispanic immigrants aren't going to be part of that militia despite some of them being interviewed as being sympathetic to the militia's mission statement. Asians might join it, as they make more money than whites on average and have been known to stand on rooftops with long guns to quell riots, but even so, that's going to be a white wall.
I read through your post, and I just can't picture an Asian firing a gun seriously. That may sounds like it's discrimination, and I don't mean for it to be discriminating or belittling, but it just really seems entertaining thinking about it.

I don't think Asians generally expatriate to the US because they want to export their home countries' often genocidal tyranny over civilian gun ownership.

Be a cop, work my way up to homicide detective, retire a small county sheriff. Then when I realized I couldn't just follow orders to violate civil rights (or allow fellow officers to do the same rather than risk my life taking them down), that wish died.

Whoever's asking you for proof needs to generate a random string for you to sign. Otherwise you could simply copy a valid signature from the actual owner and paste it to victims.

I'd say San Diego, CA, but that would be selfish. How hard would it be to just have sellers put in their postal code and the site look it up, then make the county/area tied to it a friendly name in the dropdown? That way you don't have to list every single metro area, and only those that have sellers in them will dropdown.

I agree with the sentiment stated so far in this thread. Although it's a nice sentiment, the domain name won't even come close to $750K. That particular name doesn't have any marketably unique draw to it in terms of a media location. And secondly, there are already multiple locations that serve as a hub in regards to bitcoin.

[As an example point of emphasis: if someone wants to look up bitcoins, he/she will more likely input the term into a search engine than type in bitcoin.com. So what would bitcoin.com offer that is worth $750K?]

bitcoin.com is worth way over 1million usd, as is bitcoin.org. bitcoins.com probably 500-600k

If you knew anything about how the domain market works, you'd know that one word, generic, domain names are worth incredible amounts of money.

Yes, quite a few people use search engines for domain names etc. But Most people still simply type the domain name into the url bar.

Think about it this way, would you rather go on a search engine to visit a website, or simply type that websites name into the url bar? Exactly, you would do the latter(type the websites name into the url bar) because it's way easier than having to go on google everytime you want to visit the website. That's what makes one word, generic, domain domain names like bitcoin.com/bitcoins.com Extremely valuable.

They only save one click in browsers where the URL bar also queries a search engine for the domain keyword you just entered without an appendage.

was 24k when the got hacked dare I say, the first time ? Or from the sounds of it their have been multiple hacks ?

They didn't leave an unencrypted wallet.dat lying around again... did they ?

AFAIK Bitfloor was only hacked once.

Three words, time will tell.

That's 5 words m8....

Anyway, yes i agree 750k is insane, but i learned one thing. People are ready to pay ridiculous amount of money for BTC related products / services.

If they were, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=167776.0 would be sold by now.
