Any ETA on when I'll receive my coins? I placed an order for 4 of them yesterday.
If you're in the U.S., it's pretty quick. I received mine in less than 72 hours but I probably got lucky that I paid the same day that RSantana was doing a shipment. Cheers, Kermee What about internation shipments(the netherlands)? Any estimates? I paid mine last wednesday. Got mine today, so international shipping takes about a week(to the netherlands) ! And i have to say, they really look great! I just noticed, that for international shipping of 4 coins Paypal says 29.96 USD (including shipping), whereas with Bitcoins that would be 2.8 BTC. I really don't mind the price - it is still a great offer, but the 30% discount when paying with Paypal appears a bit strange to me.
Am I missing something here?
They should be cheaper to buy in BTC than with paypal to stimulate the market . They look bigger than what I had in mind, color looks nicer on these photos Would be nice to have these also in silver and gold

Wow I would not touch that with a 10 foot pole
Translation: "My 10 mm pole won't reach" Some people here really need to get laid soon or just come out of the closet and admit they are gay.

HD5870x2, 844, 15 ($225), $0.00 thanks to solar panels even at night. NOOOOOOOOO! You solar panel people are going to drive the rest of us out of business. And how much do you think he needs to mine to pay off that solar panels Thought about solar panels too (not particularly for mining, just for the house), but if I count everything, the panels and the maintenance. I actually get a lot of years electricity for that and when they are paid off I probably almost need to replace them. I wait a little longer before getting solar panels

I would put a bitcoin tattoo on my upper left arm too, but probably costs me more to get it than the 10btc I get

You all are looking at this wrong!!! Totally wrong...
Taxes we will have, this is a fact of life... sorry no way around paying for public services that we all need that we rarely use... metaphorically speaking.
But Taxes disappear in to a black hole projects, slush funds, pork barrel projects, SSI, medicare, what-have-you...
Unlike regular USD... Bitcoin, EVERY TRANSACTION is public and traceable...
Think about this now. Imagine if every dollar you pay in income tax, sales tax, property tax, inheritance tax, etc. were publicly available. You knew weather your money went to pay someone's SSI check, or when to pay for a new weapon, tank, or airplane.
Someone protests against war, and the next day he sees they used his taxmoney to buy one big shiny tank.

Yes, we need roads, we need fire fighters and some of that stuff. However, it should all be financed privately.
So you propose making the 'gap' between the haves and the have-nots into a wall. No ambulance is coming to help you...because you are poor. Your house is burning to the ground...because you're poor. Your children will be doomed to a life of abject squalor because you are so busy scraping and stealing to feed them that you have no time to educate them, that is, if they don't die of pertussis or rubella, because there is no vaccination program or standards without taxes. ok I'm not totally behind Corner his idea to privately finance everything, would be a little bit a big hassle, if everybody needs to maintain his own little piece of road before his house and I think it would be nice to get it in concrete and my neigbour thinks dirt is much better and his neighbour would like to use bricks, nah nice roads we would have. Taxes are necessary, but I should have the choice where my money goes to, at this point my money goes to things like various beliefs I don't support, people who don't want to work (I don't care to give you like 3 months wage if you are unemployed but don't tell me you can't find a job within 15years), etc. and the things I find important like science and good roads, just don't get enough funds. So yeah at the moment I drive over the border Holland-Belgium and remember the roads I've driven and the thing my car bumps over at that moment I got a little bit the feeling I was robbed. I give away 50% of my wage for good roads and what do I get? An unemployed driving the same car as me flashing his lights because he got to be in time at the moskee, church,... whatever meetingplace comes into your mind to tell each other fairytales. No, at the moment I fill in my tax form I want to choose where the money will be used for. Everybody can just fill in where the money goes to and those funds should be used for what you filled in. If you want to give it to the firedepartment so it will be, if I want to give it to medical healthcare so it will be, that's in my opinion the only way you can get a fair taxsystem. You could even go further and let the people vote on witch company can do the job, witch building constructor to choose, witch hospitals, witch firedepartments, and so on But some people saying, here with your money and we will take care of it, is not the way to do it imho. You do have a say where your taxes go, and who gets awarded those lucrative contracts...ever been to a city council meeting? I assume that a progressive European society has some equivalent... Letting people 'choose where their money is spent' is ridiculous. Half of the world is of average or below-average intelligence. You trust them to invest in more than short sited thrill seeking? I hope you like your waterparks...your utopia will be filled with them. Actually, no we don't have city council meetings or some equivalent over here And the choice if your money goes to believe or not is actually something a lot of people want here and is only a matter of time before we will get that 1 choice on our taxform. I don't see why more options would form a problem, and I think you are smart enough to understand that waterparks don't need to be on the list of choices. But hey on the other hand, a country that looks like one big giant waterpark should drive lots of tourists bringing in lots of money don't you think No, I still believe in choices and I think most people are smart enough to make the right decision if you give them the right choices or at least the majority of people. Most people in the world also think that a country without a government for 1 year and 1 month would fall into total anarchy, plundering, murdering, raping,a total financial crisis, etc *looks through the window* yep, my car is still there with the gps and radio still in it and it still has 4 rims to stand on. Everything just goes like it always did, economical it doesn't really hurt us, roads are as bad as they used to be and crimes are the same like they always where and everybody just does his job like he always did. Some foreign investors are a little bit worried but looks like they are not that worried to not invest or run away like hell. So yes I have enough faith in the people here that they also can make the right choices, could it work everywhere and immediately? No, Rome wasn't build in a day and a taxsystem like this needs to be worked out step by step. People got to get used to it, and one choice at a time. And yes I am a dreamer, and some things I think may seem totally irrational, but without dreamers a lot of good inventions/ideas wouldn't exist.

haha that would be interesting to make money and getting paid via bitcoin. Problem is how would you spend it. I doubt your landlord would accept electronic currency.
Just sell some to pay the usual bills, buy whatever you can with bitcoins and save the rest. Actually I wouldn't think twice if my boss would give me the choice, euro's or bitcoins.

Why would that get peoples' attention to bitcoin?
Because they get something free and he makes clear it is worth some money. I like the idea.

Well, call me stupid but I opened the file after I scanned it with MSE, so can you please tell me how can I clean my pc now, when no antivirus detects it as a potential threat?
Does it install any files which I can manually delete?
Change your passwords, backup your files, do a format and reinstall everything. You will think twice in the future before opening an attachment.

I don't have a tradehill account and the spamming doesn't help convincing me to take one.

What's the use of deleting all the links, at least people now know there is a database with there email and pass leaked. Deleting the link doesn't delete it from the internet and the HDD's of people who downloaded it.
If you would find a way to do that, you'll be filthy rich, record company's would give you millions.

17.50, you can send me those 10$ in bitcoins. I'm pretty sure I'm right with this guess. The bitcoin will be back to around 17.5$/BTC after we rollback all trades that have happened after the huge Bitcoin sale that happened on June 20th near 3:00am (JST). 2 hours after trade opens, op said. Still convinced it will be around 17.50 after 2 hours. It will be no freefall and neither it will be skyrocketing after 2 hours.

Not my number, but I am sure a few people would be interested in this one... yes, a new small trail to find our epic god, we've got his mail address ...if that is the real Satoshi, I would think he would be a much earlier user of mtgox.

I don't really see what's wrong with this. He even said you can remove the code. Besides that it actually is an informative email. He's just giving you a sort of voluntary place to tip?
Seriously? People believe it is not spam if they say you can remove the ref code. 50% of the spamposts on forums contain that sentence, the other 50% camouflages the ref url with url of the original siteThis is clearly spam not an info mail, the info mail I've allready got from MtGox themselves before I got 8 mails from our nice btc supporter.

It's a nice little test, and if it doesn't kill btc it will only make it stronger and maybe a good decentralized trading platform can emerge of it, who will tell. We knew the weakest spot in the whole system and think most people knew this could happen so it won't be that big of a deal for bitcoins in the longer run, maybe shorttime we will see a dip.
