Is it possible to disable 2+ confirmation requirement and reduce it to the single confirmation req'd by Satoshi client? I trust the transactor's tx is valid. Keep thinking I only need one confirmation, then when I try to send, Armory declares tx invalid.
It could also be I'm mis-observing what's happening and am actually experiencing what etotheipi described earlier, given I'm using .55.
Cheers!
ETA: Yeah, pretty sure I'm experiencing the same thing as e-pi. Noticed it did go through, just not displayed in Armory.

Pledging an additional 4BTC to BTC100.  |

So you're essentially selling a mining contract, with the added bonus that you'll get 100% of your money back? Sounds good, except you don't have much reputation here.  He's done a few solid transactions if you check his post history. I'd lend, but as usual, have no coins. |

Isn't the risk of BitScalper worth blackballing them from the society? Isn't any business or company trying to remain anonymous supposed to be shooting up red flags for everyone? When a customer's records are not even collected, why would a business need to be anonymous? Can't the customers just remain anonymous? I don't think anyone wants to comply with over-bearing government regulations and audits. Getting gov't more involved with fraud is dangerous in that it makes it more difficult for legitimate people from conducting business without complying with gov't laws. FinCEN laws affect more involved with BTC than just exchanges. I'd rather have BitScalper and CoinTumbler than coercive regulation of Bitcoin businesses. Bitcoin is information, and policing information is the fastest way to kill Bitcoin.  |

For reference, Matt talked to manager @ Uncle Jack's and *surprise* they've never heard of this guy. Consider the Uncle Jack's restaurant totally unrelated to CoinTumbler. Identity theft, likely selling stolen coins, scammy chess site, taunting those who had coins stolen, has purchased tens of thousands of what he claims is monopoly money.

You are really claiming that you are the 2nd most liquid exchange, when your bid/ask spreads are currently $0.90? Do you know what liquidity means?
No, I'm claiming the largest exchange for both Euro & GBP, and second largest USD exchange in terms of volume. Spreads on Intersango are actually smaller than they seem as there are plenty of trading bots that pick up new orders within their range. He was talking about CoinTumbler.  |

i was foolish and too trusting. now that paypal has sided with the buyer, i think it would be prudent to post the full disclosure (names, phone numbers, addresses, details) regarding this case. is this the proper place for that? It would not. Do not release the private information of others. We don't know if the names are real, fake, or borrowed, or know for sure they were scammers (not to offend, but we have no idea if you're doing some "4chan army" BS). Never touch Paypal. Ever. Go to court if you have to, try to settle personally if possible. |

As with sex, mining is not done "best" at the fastest speed. Woman alert. |

Anyone who has a problem with this outrageousness, please write separate letters to FinCEN and feel free to visit Mr. Camilo and express your concerns. I've never struggled with what to do as much as I have in considering whether or not to report this non-violent illegal activity to the government. I'm at the FinCEN website, but I just can't make myself do it. Feels bad, man. |

What do you mean by "Willing to accept as payment or finance up to $3,000 in Bitcoin!"
Will you only accept 2% of the purchase price in bitcoin? That isn't exactly selling a house for bitcoin...
Never claimed to be. I'm willing to accept up to 2% of purchase price in BTC, yes. I am not the sole owner of the house and want to purchase another house soon. AFAIK, the bank selling the house I'm looking at isn't willing to accept BTC. Still, a first step toward BTC-denominated mortgages.  |

I expect more amusement in this thread.
P.S. Just received a 80k deposit from someone wanting to play chess against my bots.

Not too rare, especially if you have low aggression settings, are running 2+ cards in CFX mode, or are using the mining card as your display adapter. Probably some other conditions which'd cause this, too.

2) Ok, so I'm a master criminal, and I hacked the lol-tastic Linoodle security web tool, and I steal the 40k BTC off all the BTC business sites hosted there - so I have ~ $160k USD and i'm an asshole so I'd like to get some cash now. (also note homeboy is certainly reading this thread) You pretty much need to sell any reasonable amount on Gox. If they are smart they will lay low and not make any more transactions for a while. But, at some point, those coins are going to have to make it to Gox. we should ask them, really fucking nicely, to do all they can to make sure those coins don't get turned into cash on their xchange. Tradehill too. If you can get enough of the exchanges, even down to the small ones, to get on board with this and someone write some code to follow the block chain until it gets to Gox. Might be able to get some more clues.
Firstly, it looks like we're looking at 50K+ BTC. Secondly, we need the homeboy to get either lazy or impatient. I don't want to be giving ideas but certainly these coins don't have to ever make it to any exchange if he's determined enough... It's even more likely they never will. People who already had that amount could just be recouping losses of selling their legitimate coins. We're not looking for a poor hacker here, we're looking for someone who already had a lot of coins to begin with. A business maybe. Bitcoinica would be the first person to suspect tbh (although I don't have reason to believe it was Zhou). Operator of Silk Road? |

Most of the grounded outlets the previous owner put in were not grounded. Many of these were rectified when I changed outlets for aesthetic purposes!

In any event, I bet every major host is double checking their TOS and reminding their clientele that they don't cover "imaginary webzone dollar" losses.
If facebook's employee administrator panel was hacked into and someone stole facebook credits from users, would they say "fuck you it's imaginary money"? I hope you're being sarcastic and not an uneducated twat who has never heard of digital commodities, intellectual properties and suing for damages. Don't see how Linode can get out of compensating (at least in the form of 5 free years of hosting or something) without implying "we're just not a secure-enough service for you to put sensitive data on. Don't put data on our servers unless you're hosting non-interactive web-pages with cute little kittens, or protect your data like Fort Knox because there's no telling when it'll be compromised, either by our staff or our irresponsibility/incompetence." |

okkkkkkkkk i just read about mining rewards lmao
I'm not even planning on joining a pool and you started talking about it here
It's not pool-specific. Bitcoin will halve the block reward from 50 coins to 25 coins in ~9 months. |

Wouldn't wallet encryption, which is already implemented, have made this a nightmare of the past? (honest question, not trying to be a dick)

Okay I am a little disenchanted after doing some calculations... This rig costs $4,329 and only makes about $9,000 a year... If I were to multiple this by 6(or 30k... which is how much rigbox costs)... it would cost 30k and only make $54,000/year.
NOW RIG BOX by butterfly labs costs 30k, produces 50.4 gigahashes and makes $121,000/year.
OBVIOUSLY making your own rig is not the best option, does anybody else agree with me?
Note BFL has yet to ship them, there's no warranty (IIRC), they're unproven (may be over-heating, and if it fails, you're out $30k as opposed to paying $15 in shipping to replace a gfx card), and likely will have pretty darn low resale value once Bitcoin mining rewards start becoming less significant. Along with that though, you won't be making either of those amounts per year. Bitcoin block rewards will be halving in ~9 months. Your non-FPGA components aren't cost-efficient for mining either. You really only need one core CPU, 2gb RAM, a basic MoBo, a $10 USB stick to toss Linux on, and 7970s are more for $/W than $/MH performance. You should probably also consider your landlord may kick you out if you're using >$200/month in electricity. :x |
