Stupid MtGox bug.

and its not over yet, my prediction still has till sunday to be proven false   Wink

Or we can call the obvious now.  We've reached a top, and at the very least the market is going to rest for a while, but I suspect we're going to see more people sell and take profits because the liquidity is there.



Have you bought in yet?

Oh, proudhon's been holding for a while now.

This is something a bitcoincard wouldn't be able to do,
What makes you say that?

This from their website:
Quote
Bitcoincards only interact with the outside world (the Bitcoin system) through the radio. The card contains a chip with a low-power radio transmitter. In addition to the traditional Bitcoin system, two components are needed for the functioning of the Bitcoincard:

a gateway to ensure interaction between the card and an IP network by radio;
a server to ensure interaction between the card and the Bitcoin system.

So while the Ellet is self contained, the card isn't. Provided the answer to my question is positive - that this is indeed possible with the Ellet.

The bitcoin cards could both store a copy of the signed transaction and the first to connect to a gateway could broadcast it to lock it in.

Value of $5 is too low for what BTC offers IMHO. Only 5 times better than Bernanke ? No way !

haha, lol. Reminds me of a friend who last year (pre-parity), when I said: "bitcoin will reach parity with the us dollar soon" said: "No way, it cannot be better than the dollar".

He obviously doesn't understand the arbitrariness of the dollar.
5645  Economy / Speculation / Re: What's the logic behind this? on: June 08, 2012, 09:49:15 PM
Or maybe it's sitting there waiting for the right moment to spike the price.  Why not park it way down on the order book rather then just letting it sit in your account?
5646  Economy / Speculation / Re: are you all watching? on: June 08, 2012, 07:07:20 PM
how many coins you got?

*dr evil* One hundred billion!!!

So 476190.476% of all the bitcoins there will ever be...
5647  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [ANN] Coming next week-- the world's first handheld Bitcoin device, the Ellet! on: June 08, 2012, 04:41:52 AM
About 2,120,000 results (0.15 seconds). That's the point I was trying to bring home.

2nd and 3rd entries:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ellet+wallet


That's good enough for a start. Imagine if/once it actually ships.

It's already up to 1st and 2nd.

he started questioning me about it the moment I uttered its existance.

Is you surname Bernanke, by any chance?


Sadly, no.. but that's a really cool sirname! Why did you ask me that of all things? How is it related to my reply to Vladimir? lol???

Store half of seed on the device, and other half on the paper and the other half is your password you manually type in.

So the seed has 3 halves?  Sounds complicated.

There have been some muggings in my area lately.  If someone holds me at knifepoint and forces me to transfer all of the money from my account to them, is there a process for me to retrieve it?

The same thing could happen with any sort of money. They could force you to go to an ATM and do the same thing.

But this wouldn't have to be done in public.

I think we're not going to move from a growth-based economy to a 'stable' economy, but rather from a product-heavy economy to a service-heavy economy. This will better facilitate the 'endless growth' that seems so desirable.

So.... less fast cars, more hookers.

Can you imagine if some mad scientist pointed his quantum computer at bitcoin, solved all the blocks in a split second at the beginning of a new difficulty re-target, then unplugged, leaving the difficulty at 10 billion.

Would take the network a year to solve the next 2016 blocks to re-target to normal again  Shocked

Difficulty increase is limited to 4X.

this tread should be called: resistance at $5.5 deteriorating

welcome back chodpaba! it would be great, if you start sharing your information again! u can take much more profit while doing it ;-)

If I wanted to manipulate the market with that sort of signaling I totally would. But I don't think it is the best thing for the health of Bitcoin exchange markets, and I'm not that interested in the short game.
i just think, that another hard increase of bitcoinvalue would produce much media-backing what could bring Bitcoin to the final breakout and more bitcoin acceptance.

An increase will only get attention if it goes up and stays up.  If it shoots up everybody will just respond "give it a week, it will be back down".  Manipulation is not how we get to steady valuations above today's prices.

Where can you view "Work Orders"? Everyone seems to know when there's work available, but it's not on the main site anywhere  Huh

... not using the offline pool = work available

Then how are people quoting exact figures? It seems some miners have access to this information, and others are kept in the dark. Is that just tough luck?

the price? that is on the purchase page, go to purchase, and times the price per share times 0.9, that is the current paying rate, if you are at or below that rate you will either be getting work or there is no work.

Technically, you want to divide by 1.1.  That's the same as multiplying by 0.9090909090909...

5659  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: HELP! Transactions not confirming ;( - 4 btc bounty on: June 06, 2012, 09:30:21 AM
Well, the easiest solution at this point would be to revert to a recent backup of your wallet (you have one, right?) and double-spend these coins by sending the entire contents of the wallet to another of your addresses.

If I do this will it mess up the 120 or so transactions I've done since the corrupted transactions?

I think the default keypool is only 100.  If you're doing this many transactions you should set the keypool size to 1500 or some other high number so your backups are at least valid for a few days.

Anyway, if over 100 of those transactions are receiving coins to new addresses (this includes any sends with change), you might lose some bitcoins.  Otherwise you should be okay with your backup.  If you've used too many addresses, I'd set up pywallet and remove the transactions from your live wallet after making a backup (without bitcoin running).

Finally, to figure out what went wrong, as ThomasV suggests, check your debug.log.  I imagine yours may be fairly dense if you are doing so many transactions.  Searching for the first 10 digits of the transaction id should get you in the right area.
