Did not know. That is worth the switch to SMF default. thanks

Be aware that the other themes aren't supported. They're missing features and some things might be broken.

I just added last edit info to the Bitcoin theme. Hover your cursor over the post time.

Edits aren't recorded when they occur within 5 minutes of the post time. (This has always been the case.)

Have you used Bitdaytrade much, Meni? Is it stable?

Up to 1,000 bond will be put up for pre-IPO sale. They will be sold at a 5% discount for 0.95 BTC each. This is only available to investors buying at least 100 bonds. Send me a PM to reserve your spot.

What is the purpose of a discount like this?

Could you provide an example use case?

It's used in hashcoin's payment channels protocol. Miners will need to do it in 100+ years when blocks have no subsidy (if there are no fees). You can use it for tracking an asset without tying up BTC: the asset is represented by the 0-BTC output, and sending this 0-value output to someone (also valid) transfers the asset. You can use it for storing data in the block chain without tying up BTC.

Never. Even if I knew the entire system was about to fail, I'd still keep 1 BTC.

Ultimately there should be a set of procedures for switching the community from one hash algorithm to another

4987  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: SHA-3 AND BIP on: July 14, 2012, 11:33:46 PM
SHA-256 is very strong.  It's not like the incremental step from MD5 to SHA1.  It can last several decades unless there's some massive breakthrough attack.

If SHA-256 became completely broken, I think we could come to some agreement about what the honest block chain was before the trouble started, lock that in and continue from there with a new hash function.

If the hash breakdown came gradually, we could transition to a new hash in an orderly way.  The software would be programmed to start using a new hash after a certain block number.  Everyone would have to upgrade by that time.  The software could save the new hash of all the old blocks to make sure a different block with the same old hash can't be used.

It is legal to send 0 BTC, but the bitcoin.org client doesn't support sending such transactions. This is useful in some cases.

Genjix and phantomcircuit are not scammers.  If this was an inside job, these two people were not in on it.

In order to collect more money for the creation of good forum software, the forum is selling ad space in the area beneath the first post of every topic page.

Ads this week will be allowed to contain any non-annoying HTML/CSS style. No images, JavaScript, or animation (no marquee or blinking). Ads must appear 3 or fewer lines tall in my browser. Ads will be prefixed with "Advertisement:". Ad text may not contain lies, misrepresentation, or inappropriate language. Ads may not link directly to any NSFW page. Ads may be rejected for other reasons.

There are 10 total ad slots which are randomly rotated. So one ad slot has a one in ten chance of appearing. Eight of the slots are for sale here.

The ad lasts 7 days starting from when I put it up.

Stats

Exact historical impression counts per slot:

Efficacy stats:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=54182.0

Info about the current ad slots:

Auction rules

Post your bids in this thread. Prices must be stated in BTC per slot. You must state the max number of slots you want. When the auction ends, the highest bidders will have their slots filled until all eight slots are filled.

So if someone bids for 8 slots @ 5 BTC and this is the highest bid, then he'll get all 8 slots. If the two highest bids are 8 slots @ 4 BTC and 1 slot @ 5 BTC, then the first person will get 7 slots and the second person will get 1 slot.

- When you post a bid, the bids in your previous posts are considered to be automatically canceled. You can put multiple bids in one post, however.
- All bid prices must be evenly divisible by 0.5.
- The bidding starts at 0.5.
- The auction end time is 07:00:00 on July 21, UTC. Countdown. (The end time may be extended -- see below.)
- If two people bid at the same price, the person who bid first will have his slots filled first.
- Bids are considered invalid and will be ignored if they do not specify both a price and a max quantity, or if they could not possibly win any slots

If any valid bids occur less than 30 minutes before the auction end time, then the auction will be extended by 30 minutes. If any valid bids occur less than 30 minutes before the new end time, then the auction will be extended again, etc. The time will not extend beyond 6 hours total.

You must pay for your slots within 24 hours of receiving the payment address. Otherwise your slot may be sold to someone else.

Is this the first bitcointalk.org topic?
What happened with topic 1,2,3 and 4?

1, 2, and 4 exist in the staff forum. 3 was permanently deleted at some point (it must have contained Satoshi's real name and address).
4997  Economy / Services / Re: BitCoinTorrentz.com - Torrent Download Service on: July 12, 2012, 06:52:51 PM
it only works occasionally for me. When it doesn't, I just get the little "x" bubble instead of the whole "pay with bitcoins" box.

I see the same thing, though it's never working for me.

In what way is it down?

Clicking "Download Torrent" isn't working anymore.
