My suggestion:


That doesn't work for bringing Bitcoin to the masses of people using iPhones though...  That's a LOT of people who are blocked from utilizing Bitcoin on their phones.  At least, using it easily.

Apps removed from the App Store also don't work for bringing Bitcoin to the masses of people using iPhones Grin

It's Bitcoin 0.6.0.6 - beta. I didn't install any patches.
I've setup now 0.0001 BTC fee. I didn't expect that lack of fee can make so much trouble Sad

It shouldn't be an issue, honestly.
I only pay fees when the client demands it, and never faced this issue. I did once, when the client allowed to send with no fee, but never again since that client was dropped, and that was already a long time ago, like almost a year ago.

Buying or Selling Bitcoins with PayPal is Bad, MmmKay!

Not necessarily, especially worded like that. I've already bought Bitcoins with paypal and nobody got scammed or their account frozen Wink

You should say: Buying or selling Bitcoins with Paypal as a business model is Bad.

It looks like everything is ok now. I've clicked red button TRansaction not confirmed on blockchain.info and bitcoin client start to catch confirmations. Bitcoins are now on my glbse account. If I remember correctly bitcoin client was still catching blocks when I was doing this transfer. This maybe a cause of my problem?

It could've been the problem, yes. Maybe some of the developers can chime in and confirm it.
Or maybe the time when you could send the transaction with no fees arrived, so it got included in a block.

Now, tell me something: Are you using the No Forced Transaction Fee patched client?

Ok, blockchain.info finds that transaction. Estimated Confirmation time    Unknown / Never. So, whats now?

Now you complain about it to the guy who made the patch for the client you are using and says it's 100% safe lol

I would not think the FBI would ever refer to US dollars as "fiat currency." Indeed a Google search for "fiat currency" site:fbi.gov comes back with zero hits. Same goes for the CIA and the DOJ websites.

They even explained what fiat currency is by giving examples: USD and EUR. And rightly so, because that report was also to be distributed to foreign agencies, and focus on something that has world impact, impact which they emphasize several times on the report. USD and US are just a small part.

I love how you guys have such a selective reading, leaving out whatever doesn't fit your original assumptions.

Someone should advise Mr. Young that Bitcoin donations would suit his "business" very well, seeing as he complaints that a $30 donation costs him $15 Wink

BTC_Bear is right.  If done properly, any copies that any intermediaries made would simply be of encrypted gibberish.  Only A and Z could spend from the wallet.  The B-Y handlers would only have an encrypted form of the wallet…make all the copies you want, they would be useless without the private key that Z possesses and which is needed to decrypt the wallet.

LOLZ.  That is the solution?

Um how does B make sure the wallet is valid if it is encrypted?  Trust the criminal counterpart with $1M in product? So "B" (or any number of intermediaries) hand "Z" a wallet and ... oops turns out it is encrypted garbage.  Guess "A" just stole $1M.

Now lets say it is valid.  That does nothing to address the fact that "A" could simply steal from "Z" at will any time in the future until the funds are moved.

Now lets pretend A is honest.

What does "Z" do w/ this encrypted wallet when he needs to spend it?  Sell it to a new party?  Then Mr. "New Party" has to trust not just Z but also A (and maybe A did the same thing so he is trusting people he doesn't even know).

Once again there is a reason why we hash tx into blocks.  People are afraid to sell a 1 BTC steam game on a 0-confirm tx but somehow think criminals will trust counterparts they know are criminals with multi-million dollar drug tx and keep them 0-confirm not for 10 minutes but to hours, weeks, or even years?  LOLZ.  If you can trust your counterparty to never cheat you then you don't need a blockchain to begin with.  Without the blockchain to enforce irreversibility it is simply an IOU.

I'm sure criminals would love to do business this way with BTC_Bear and Steve...
We already know who would end up with no money and no product Wink

CoinLab was praised, Goat get's slammed with doubt... Way to go!

All in all I must say that Goat's business model makes more sense than CoinLab and I will buy some shares for sure.

@Matthew N. Wright, this is your only warning, if you continue negging me.
I will put resolute force behind my words,
and with this and only this, will you ever be told.

I admit I had to look up what "negging" meant.

"Low-grade insults meant to undermine the self-confidence of a woman so she might be more vulnerable to your advances."

Matthew might be provoking you a bit but I'm pretty sure he is not hitting on you.

So, hoo is a ho?  Shocked

Speaking of evangelism, has anyone gathered a collection of tips on how it should and shouldn't be done? That might be very useful. I did a quick search, but I couldn't find much more than "tell them how awesome it is and include a link to weusecoins".

See https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Public_relations

Dear mother of Gox, we've had that for almost a year now?!?

I reckon! It's like Bitcoin's got its own Wikipedia, but better. Excuse me while I fire my secretary.


He was talking about the page, not about the wiki...

They didn't even mention that beyond a network P2P, that there could be exchange of Wallet.dat files that the network wouldn't even see.

That is non-viable method beyond immediate and well trusted peers and only for tiny amounts of money.




I would tend to believe that the people that would to that in a serious Organized Crime way, would be trusted or dead.

Just saying...

Trust, money and criminality don't get along very well...

Just saying...

Where's your "another FBI report"? I'd like to take a look.

It will be available in 5-6 months but only if 1000 people pre-order it now.  It's gonna be awesome.  20,000 pages, full color, so glossy it will fall right out of your hands, and in 1080P 3D.  Contact Matt is you want to purchase some ad space.

Witnessed!

The very first page graphic, but that might have been added later by OP.

That's unlikely... I very much doubt that if it was the OPs work, as you suggest, he would've put the

I'll help him a bit and start with:

Your skepticism is a little too strident however.


+1 He sounds very afraid, I wonder why?

Because he wanted a signed affidavit from the leaker to make himself feel important because he would protect him under the freedom of the press laws for unpublished magazines on the UK... Roll Eyes

Or he's just mad because being a magazine(?) editor he should be the one to score the scoops, yet he has none to show on his magazine(?) even after 5 months of publishing delay

Looks like you owe him a million sand dollars, which is roughly worth $3,000,000.

They're apparently worth more than I thought.

Getting better...
