Looks like were hitting some resistance from Americans waking up and getting shaky fingers.  Usually at this point I would think we were in for some slowdown, but after seeing how we ate through the 10k wall yesterday I wouldn't be surprised if we were at 350 by this afternoon.

350 today is madness, in my opinion it is quite possible that we see 250 first, (as part of the final goodbye to anything 2XX).

It is already thursday, and in March it was generally the highest for the week. Weekend = crash.

Btw. does anyone know of a reliable leveraged platform for trading bitcoins? Bitfinex I know of. How about this?

They freeze trading when the market is volatile potentially increasing their edge; however, they are a publicly traded company so probably not a flight by night operation.

Ahh, okay guess I'll do some more poking around then, thanks for the link, not sure about an operating system though Cheesy.
Whonix uses 2 virtual machines. It can run on any system using Virtualbox or VMware.

Whonix is more secure but if you use the Tor browser bundle then disable Java. Also, I think Tormail might have been compromised by the US government.

edit: I tested the Tormail onion URL and it's down. Even if it's get back online, I wouldn't trust it.

Freedom Hosting was the host of Tormail...

Kind of curious what this actually is, guess I'm a bit too much of a newb to understand it.

He's data mining.

That was my first thought but then I noticed that he is not collecting passwords since they are automatically generated by the website.

For some reason the PDF on ArXiv can't be read.

Here is an attempt to compile the source on writelatex.com:

Had the same problem but found the PDF somewhere else and I'm hosting it there: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0iH5utIT4tkdzU5eFNBRWl5WHc/edit?usp=sharing

Edit: Your PDF looks complete.

http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-debit-cards-come-canada/

Canadians were able to succeed where others failed and pull off this ATM thing... Why not Bitcoin debit card?

Might Canada become a shining beacon of Bitcoin adoption and real freedom, as opposed to "take-no-prisoners" attitude by the US Paper Belt?

Cavirtex is now offering debit card(in $) that you can load directly from the exchange via Bitcoin.

They mention Cavirtex in the article and the ability to get a Prepaid Debit Card to withdrawal funds at ATM/use at POS.  I just signed up for Cavirtex so going to try and get one!
Ah... Just read the article. Because of the language barrier and fatigue I thought Arvicco was only talking about the Vancouver ATM.

Bitcoin is broken. And not just superficially so, but fundamentally, at the core protocol level. We're not talking about a simple buffer overflow here, or even a badly designed API that can be easily patched; instead, the problem is intrinsic to the entire way Bitcoin works. All other cryptocurrencies and schemes based on the same Bitcoin idea, including Litecoin, Namecoin, and any of the other few dozen Bitcoin-inspired currencies, are broken as well.

If you have the budget then this should do the job. On this site the b/g model is slightly less expensive.
77  Other / Off-topic / Re: Which operating system(s) do you use? on: November 03, 2013, 04:05:17 AM
I tried to install Manjaro yesterday but unfortunately the installer didn't even support my graphic card (blank screen). Then I tried to install Lubuntu 13.10 but I couldn't install the proprietay ATI driver needed for the switchable graphic card. I guess that I will stay with Lubuntu 12.04 for now... I also have a box running Win7 X64 because I use VC++ for Windows development. I also use XP X32 with VirtualBox on Lubuntu. My phone run Android.

No slippage with 1broker but low limit (8BTC X MaxLeverage(5) = MaxPosition(40BTC) ).
You need to be cautious about slippage on BitFinex but it's possible to open much higher position than on 1broker.

For a while, I was trading simultaneously on 1broker and BitFinex but left 1broker after they lowered their limit and then upped the spread.

Also, I did try plus500 but their platform is rigged to their advantage and I'm serious.

How so? And losing isn't a valid reason.

First you trade only paper bitcoins.
Second, they freeze trading during volatility period and maybe other tricks to gain an edge on traders: http://thefxview.com/2013/07/23/virtual-dealer-plugin/

In the link I posted, they talk about 1-5 seconds delay but I've seen 60+ with Plus500. Wait until there is a period of high volatility and watch your positions getting liquidated one by one without even being able to close anything and you will understand Wink

I remember reading that their website had some vulnerability for a while. Maybe the user DB was dumped.
