61  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Is it even worth it to buy/order an ASIC single now? on: September 23, 2012, 02:16:51 PM
I'd say go for it. Buy yourself a raspberry pi or similar low powered computer to operate it.
When ASICs will be available the network hash rate will double every few months for a year at least. I won't try to predict more than 1 year development. In july the estimated preordered mining hardware was 40 ths, twice the current or recent total network capacity. It seems reasonable to expect from BFL (or whoever moves first to market) that they would ship that much hardware to miners within few months.
let the back order queue be 6 months and will slowly decrease to 1-2 months (as observed with fpga bfl products).
if you keep it mining 24/7 since the purchase than you will have fun operating it and watching the payouts. A BFL singe mines 3.50 per month today. It was surely more in february and will be less in the future. jalapenos should perform as well. maybe the payout will decrease faster and never start at 3.50 in the first place, but you'll have fun for sure mining at home with a small number of units. choosing a pool, responding to incidents, watching mining luck & variance or not care about mining as long as it will just work.
I'd wait for first independent reports and then order.

I see no reason to provide .onion access to GLBSE as most accounts that have been compromised the attacker has used Tor to do so.

I did not know that. Fair enough. Thanks for sharing the info

can't trade syndicate on glbse
64  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Two-factor authentication and GLBSE on: September 19, 2012, 08:58:07 AM
well.

and what about the .onion access point to glbse?
or releasing 1.0 javascript black/blue version with keys only for authentication?

If, like me, you are curious as to the differences between Czech and Slovak here is exactly the same screenshot as the post above but in Slovak:

thanks for including it so fast Smiley

seems like a major announcement. bump.

hi,
did you also try the full node with raspberry pi?
downloading blockchain and stuff
68  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Project will be making a major announcement in September on: August 30, 2012, 11:27:57 PM
The 0.7 release very likely has nothing to do with this major announcement. The 0.7 release is an improvement but there is nothing there that I'd consider major, so let's just wait.

I'd say adding a rule to the protocol is worth a major announcement. so when the rc days are over, prepare for blocks 2.0 (not enforced until vast majority upgrades)

71  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: What are the chances of an address collision? and what happens when it does? on: August 30, 2012, 08:02:12 PM
You are, however, much better off generating collisions on various deterministic wallets like brainwallets etc... there are plenty of people out there who do not get it why some passwords/keys must be strong.

If lucky you will teach some punks a good lesson BTW.

repeating the obvious: the seed secret for deterministic wallets is the equivalent to password.
not only must it be secret, also difficult to guess.
72  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How did people fall for this Pirate scam? on: August 30, 2012, 07:56:31 PM
The ad-hoc web of trust can be a great tool for business networking - but also a dangerous thing.   (Which has always made me somewhat suspicious of Ripple ever being practical!)

well, it's a web. lot of folds used paypal to trade with him and are not so well hidden. go, ask them. last time I checked tens of paypal transactions.
just my 2 cents
73  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: GLBSE 2.0 open for testing on: August 30, 2012, 06:18:33 PM
That's the spirit!

I will suggest at the end that maybe it was a bug that Nefario should investigate? Smiley


bugs should be investigated Wink

I guess it would be fairly easy on any platform. I suggested e-mail (although it's not optimal for me) because everyone knows how to deal with that and it's pretty much decentralized. I'd create a new e-mail account for this, which I'll only access through my smartphone, yet I can still easily access from any other device if I need to.

2nd email address - for 2 factor auth email could be just fine
75  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: GLBSE - request for next features on: August 29, 2012, 03:12:03 AM
I couldn't manage to add GLBSE to my two-factor authentication with Google (I guess it doesn't work over SMS?), and I wasn't very eager anyway. Will you implement other authentication schemes? A jabber message would be good enough for me, though any generic protocol that's easy to setup with an external device should be fine. I guess e-mail would be the most generic one.

or pairing glbse account with freenet irc accounts, or wot at http://bitcoin-otc.com/

could you write that in ruby?

Mark security issuers Buy and Sell orders with a different color in the order book.

They would just make a new account if they did not want that public.

not 100 % true
buying from issuer is closer to 'primary market'
selling to issuer has impact on number of shares that receive dividends
'a new account' here would be different from issuer's account and both arguments above apply

78  Economy / Securities / Re: Weekly loss of N% guaranteed - Enjoy perpetual loss with fixed Mh/s mining turds on: August 16, 2012, 01:55:32 PM
I don't get it. Two parties agreed on a thing called "perpetual mining bond"
that from the inception and as long as glbse is online the issuer will pay 'a coupon' denominated in hashing operations per second
buyer could do nothing, keep bitcoin and "profit" by avoiding potential loss in this trade.
since buyers decided to trade bitcoins for the perpetual mining contracts, it's theirs choice and probably a questionable investment decision but why repeating the obvious?
79  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: GLBSE IPO Handling and Interaccount Transfers Discussion Thread. on: August 15, 2012, 03:31:45 PM
Was there ever a post that states the final details on how these are treated?

not sure if it's summarized better than what you just did. I remember the same outcome (of a discussion) that if there is a new asset create and it did not trade yet, transfers are w/o fees. also I noticed that both parties pay fees (seller and buyer) (have to divide glbse ballance with 1.005 first to see how much i can spend) and when selling I pay fee as well.
