That's the point, nothing stop them to just disappear with your BTC. Read the "TRUST NO ONE" thread, here in this world it is a very possible thing
4563  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / So, did the people who whined about early adopters buy cheap BTC? on: August 15, 2011, 09:11:47 AM
Cause they were all like "omg early adopters bought tons of btc for a so low price! This is not fair!"

Well, did you buy them at 6$ now? What? You didn't? Guess what? I expected that.

Why? Cause omg price is low, crash, fail, blabla? But but but that's exactly what early adopters faced, an almost unknown currency at very low price, they risked a LOT and won (BTC price then increased). While you are only good at whining  Grin


BTC at 6$ was a chance to buy them at a low price even in august 2011, if you whined about early adopters AND you missed that then you are just a whiner  Roll Eyes

Why i open that thread? Cause i'm tired of reading about ppl who is good only to whine about early adopters and of course can't be bothered to risk when price is low.

My basement is COLD in summer and COLDER in winter. Even it summer it feels good to cozy up to my mining machine. I haven't ordered a: Kill A Watt Electricity Usage Monitor, yet. I'm wondering how a mining machine compares to a space heater and also oil heaters.

These heaters usually run between 500 and 1500 watts, and based on using them before, the space heaters are not very efficient, the oil heaters probably produce more heat for less wattage. How does a mining machine stack up against a space heater and oil heater?

Are we getting over and saving a bit of money in the winter?

Of course most of us would not run the heater 24/7, but lets just ignore that for the time being.

Remember that the creator of bitbills can know all the private keys of the bitbills created by them and it can be a scam, maybe one day they just move all the BTC of these private keys in another wallet and ta-dah, all bitbills are worth 0.

Better to specify it, remember, TRUST NO ONE

Well golden age was when difficulty was 1, or maybe when gpu mining appeared.

Walmart is an american only thing mostly, while bitcoin is international

I live in Europe and almost no one know what "walmart" is

Seems it's some kind of giant supermarket where they sell almost everything... Haven't seen something like that in Europe yet.
There are a lot of supermarkets in europe that sell everything more or less...

Is it so hard to make a client that show me the total amount of address in a wallet? And that let me add new address to it? Why i have to mess with text files? Do they think i'm using windows 3.1?
4575  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The bitomat exchange lost their wallet - selling exchange for 17,000 BTC!! on: August 02, 2011, 05:05:27 PM
Protip on how to backup wallet: encrypt it then happily upload it in gmail, msn skydrive and every other email or online service you have. Since it's encrypted, no one will steal it. And no way you can lose it, even if some service happily delete your account you still have others. And except that, these online services are very reliable.
4576  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Freedom and Responsibility - or: why you FAILED if you lost money in MBC crash on: August 02, 2011, 12:05:08 PM
So... now you're gloating that lots of people lost their coins and you still have them? Do you feel proud? Do you feel lucky? Should we be laughing if you fail the next "test"?

It's already bad enough, there is no need for a zillion topics rubbing it in to them. It has already happened, and the people involved are obviously aware that they made a mistake.

There is no need for rude and unfriendly comments like yours. Can we at least pretend to keep the community a nice place?

Storing your wallet in a safe way (both against theft and loss) is not exactly easy nor user friendly at the moment. Even for the tech-savy it's hard. Please contribute to solving this problem instead of kicking dead horses...

So false.

People who made this mistake made it for some reasons and these reasons are WHY they probably will make again that mistakes again and again.

Something bad happened, and? We must shut up about it and ignore and forget it?

Or maybe we should speak about it and analyze what went wrong and why people lost money? I think the latter is the better way to face the problem.

We have people who sent their money to an unknown guy and guess what? They lost everything. First time it happens? No, not in bitcoin and not in the world!

This remind me EVE Online and the epic IPO/investment/shares scam. People "invest" their ingame money in these things cause omg it give me like 5% interests each month omg. And guess what? Every some months one of them come out to be a scam. Huge lossess happened, one scam stole enouff ingame money to make like 170000$. And yet everytime you go read the forum another scam just happened and so on again and again

People KEEP repeating their mistakes.

Guys please... Think about the real Tom Williams skilled enough to create a website such as "mybitcoin" and has been running this site for a long time now, In other words he knows how bitcoin works and has the skills. Do you really believe there is no backup and buy into the FBI story?? come on he has probably been around bitcoin longer than most of us here going by the amount of time the site has been up and running. Sorry im not buying this at all....

He called the CYBERPOLICE

conseguences will never be the same  Shocked

Well i suppose there can be a market for mann.co keys for bitcoins

A lot of bitcoiners are TF2 players, so... i for example would buy some keys. And the price is of course the price they are sold by Valve, easy.
