Real bitcoin businesses aren't going to support the cryptocoin flavor of the day.
if SD don't grab the market, someone else will.
Grab what market? When's the last time you heard about Litecoin in MSM? Or bytecoin or feathercoin or whatever. YouTube videos of "litecoin is more secure than bitcoin" doesn't count.
Why would anyone want to use Litecoin?
1. Mining via their CPU or GPU: Won't last for long, FPGAs are coming for Litecoin.
2. "Faster" blocks: Faster but less secure. It's not the speed of the blocks, it's the *time* taken. 24 Litecoin confirmations are needed for the same security of 6 confirmations
3. Early adaptors: That's a group that won't grow in numbers.
Litecoin is dead. It might still be used in a couple of years, but it's not going to be anywhere as close to Bitcoin, and certainly not overtake it. There's no serious development behind Litecoin, and no serious businesses will support it because they know it's doomed.
Please don't read this as saying Bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency that can succeed. You need something so better than Bitcoin that a critical mass switches. Switches, FYI, implementing both doesn't count.

Assume everyone is a scammer until they sufficiently prove otherwise.

Fucking dumbasses who trade with newbies without escrow.. I hate to say it but people who got scammed are at some fault too for feeding the scammers.

anyone else get a 'bonus payment'?
any idea what that is?
Small amount to compensate for the downtime last night. Is there a lag on the server now? I had two payments sent to my wallet yesterday but only one appeared?
Please send me the tx IDs. The missing one may not have confirmed yet. PM sent with the links to the payments. One of the transactions isn't confirming. |

Doesn't SDICE already have a test server?

The same scams have happened for dozens of times now. Maybe there should be a "USE ESCROW OR YOU WILL GET SCAMMED" warning in the PM sending page.

Neat user interface. Higher max bets please.

How would you sign that message?
It shouldn't be possible in a way an hacker with keylogger (-> got your mail/forum account) can access to.
Bitcoin private key signing? |
|
|
|
just an idea for the locked withdrawl thing, would it be possible to just make it so to unlock an address you simply sign a message saying "I want to unlock the withdrawl address" or something along those lines
Could do that. Alternatively, as you already have the private key, just withdraw to your locked address and then transfer it to where you want it to be sent to? |

A small bonus payment has being made to all accounts over 1 BTC |

Yep. Can't login here either, blank page after login.
Its 3AM where TradeFortress is so he's probably asleep. I'm sure he'll fix it once he's awake.
Yeah, I was asleep.. There was a server issue which now has being fixed, pingdom didn't alert me because it only applied if you were logged in. There is no problem with CoinLenders, just a server glitch. Sorry to everyone for the scare / inconvenience  |

Thanks for the update friedcat, but please still work on a "elaborate" report instead of us having to trail through previous forum posts to get a partial picture.

Why won't Mt Gox implement locking in withdrawal addresses?

This doesn't mean anything unless you can prove it.
