Sweet. Like the poster above, I thought it was the heat causing memory errors. My card is already sagging about 3/4" from the strain (side mounted, heavy passive heatsink and overclocked just under where it starts crashing).

Because bitcoins act sorta like cash, is it illegal to make a bitcoin transaction over the threshold as well?

How do they possibly think they will be able to police this? Cash transactions are untraceable, how is making a law going to make them any more traceable?

Newsflash: Lawbreakers break laws.

You're correct. This is inane.

Watching that downward momentum build and build...

Where??

Irony, possibly sarcasm.

The Chinese have an interest in displacing the dollar as the currency of choice for oil transactions. They're unlikely to be able to do that with their own currency. The Euro doesn't really help them and has its own issues in any case. Could they be looking at Bitcoin for the job?

I think the current price is probably correct for now but I suspect we are really going to start really bubbling any day now followed by quite a severe correction.

Should be fun.

Yeah, you'd better hurry or the 0.5 btc then will be worth the same as 1 btc now. Cheesy
5991  Economy / Collectibles / Re: CASASCIUS PHYSICAL BITCOIN - In Stock Now! (pic) on: February 22, 2013, 05:50:04 AM
Bitcoin's increasing value/price is making these too expensive to buy as cheap gifts. I think you may have to come out with a smaller denomination version.
5992  Economy / Speculation / Re: $30 on: February 22, 2013, 05:34:28 AM
Bitcoin will never reach $30M again.

Well dang.

Who's up to start the "Bitcoin will never reach $40 again" thread?

Such an audit is actually pretty simple to do using the blockchain (just publish cold storage address(es)). I remember after the mtGox hack that MagicalTux prooved to be in possesion of 4424,242.42424242 BTC by moving them in the blockchain. It's not like rival banks have to demand to see all the silver or something.


That tells you how many Bitcoins mtgox (say) are holding but doesn't tell you the amount of bitcoins they claim to be holding if you sum all the deposits.

Bitcoin-cheerleading-group-think

You are delusional if you don't think this forum (and particularly this subforum) isn't ridden with this.

See, that isn't what I said...
5996  Economy / Speculation / Re: $30 on: February 21, 2013, 08:08:07 PM
Yeah, the last trade has been bumping up there all today. Luckily I had read about the currency conversion thing elsewhere before posting about it.
5997  Economy / Speculation / Re: I call myself out of this game. on: February 21, 2013, 08:06:28 PM

I may have only been 11, but I saw a good thing coming.

I feel even better about Bitcoins though, long term.

And you still hold? Congratulations then. I'm still bitter at myself for exiting at 400.

You took profit. That's a win whichever way you slice it.
5998  Economy / Speculation / Re: I call myself out of this game. on: February 21, 2013, 08:05:28 PM
When I first heard about bitcoin, I could have bought it, lol. No, seriously, I could have bought maybe 5% of the supply and drive the price up 10000%.

Too bad, somebody else did. I suffer the consequences.

my main argument was that during the run up of apple and google there were people who said exactly this

im saying bitcoin is similar, you still wanna throw that bet down  you never replied to that you nancy

No, I never had the money to buy the entire market cap of either Apple or Google. With Bitcoin, many of us did. Now THAT is a remorse.

The market cap is an illusion anyway. If you sold all bitcoins, you would get much less than the market cap, if you bought all bitcoins it would cost you much more (many, many times more) than the market cap.
5999  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it a good idea to buy Bitcoin now at $29? on: February 21, 2013, 08:02:54 PM
I wonder why the bears who are really convinced don't short the crap out of the current "bubble"? It's an opportunity of a lifetime, you can triple your available money easily by shorting from 30 to single digits!
I don't mind bears. They might even be right. And they might even have been right all the way from 14 or so. It's when people spout nonsense and then claim it's some kind of Bitcoin-cheerleading-group-think when they get called on it.
