A few weeks ago, a friend and I had the idea to build an app to send and receive bitcoin over social networks. There have been many times in the past where we wanted to send bitcoin to people on Facebook or Twitter (to tip, or as a gift, or to pay back friends), but could never do it easily. The recipient has to set up a wallet, understand how it all works, and send me their address, among other things. The entire bitcoin experience seemed to be a real pain for average users. We thought they would be more at ease transacting on platforms they’re familiar with, with people they can identify and trust, as opposed to anonymous addresses. So we built Coingram: https://coingram.coIt’s quite straightforward: you can send bitcoin to anyone on Facebook or Twitter. You can also receive bitcoin from anyone by sharing a link: coingram.co/[your-username]. And you can send very tiny amounts (as little as 1 micro-bitcoin). Everything is free. We have many features planned (mobile app, embeddable buttons, attaching media to your transaction) but we think it's reached a point where we want to see if anyone's actually going to use the darn thing. We think it has some potential. What do you guys think? See here. This is the place to establish your competence, not to obfuscate yourself and your idea while appealing to "ease". "Ease" is exactly what bitcoin needs right now. Your post is antiquated. I think you're right though in that this forum is most probably not the target market. You can't have real cryptocurrency without real crypto. Maybe spend a year practicing with Doge? |

Had a similar opinion to this group and the forum as a whole. What are they truly doing to further bitcoin besides holding conferences; yeah they're great, but are they advertising bitcoin? Not really.
The forum is great but the amount of donations kind of exceeds what is really needed. The bitcoins of the forum aren't even being used that much and there are a lot of things the forum could do to promote bitcoin as well as improve the forum and its code too. The forum, eye-attracting wise, isn't that alluring. I feel many would feel the same way here.
This forum hasn't been close to the center of BTC in quite some time. |

Openex shutting down.
x-bt.com is going strong though. |

We just brought another piece of our auto-grading system back online so we hope grading times will decrease significantly for soccer and a few other sports.
Thanks
NRL Rugby is still lagging. |

This isn't nearly as unreasonable as it seems
I love it how you know nobody buys your shit. You really are an artist when it comes to the art of bullshitting. Isn't there a word for people like that? Oh yea it's called a con artist. My bet is this ponzi collapses within the next 6 months. Depending on whether or not there is another influx of bitcoin noobs to recruit to the cult of mpex. I might be amenable to taking the other side of this bet. |

I don’t think it’s either practical nor feasible nor even desirable to use Bitcoin in the day to day dabble of pizzas, phone credits, hairspray and sneakers. People try to, because of the misguided belief that Bitcoin value is somehow related to or deriving from its crossection in the retail market.
2) A single developer (Gavin) being able to screw up a software update and causing a fork that destroys a 10+ billion dollar business is not an option. See #1. People will want to minimize their possible risks to 10-20% loss for attacks or things like this happening. 3) Demand for anonymous transactions vs open transactions. 4) Practical hardware/space limitations of a single chain that has already been discussed. 5) The usage of PoS as a virtual bank. 6) How easy it is for a government to co-opt, attack, or take over a single chain. It's much harder to take over or destroy 10 at once. My estimate is, there will be 5-10 large coins. 7) Dozens more that I don't feel like typing. Gavin hasn't been Bitcoin's best friend in quite some time and even nao the development accomplishments haven't been much. |

Guys Look once at http://gba4iosapp.com/. They got a enterprise deployment program from Apple (299USD per Year) and built and signed a by-apple-not-allowed iOS app. Now, of course, Apple pulled-back the certificate, but everyone can install the app via web when setting back the iOS system date to date before when apple pulled-out the certificate. Why should we not do that with a nativ iOS wallet? 1) Found a small company 2) Register for a enterprise program 3) sign app and make it public downloadable 4) wait till apple pulls back the certificate 5) inform user to set back the date (and blame Apple) while installing the app 6) set the date back to "now" Never happening. At least not since Apple killed hypercard and the SE/30, which was the best Unix workstation ever. Now Apple just shits on shiny glass shards. |

This doesn't look as bad as some cryptostocks offerings, but
some one could have just taken a dump on a plate and it would look better.

The original contract is as follows: Cognitive Mining (asset id Cognitive) was created with the intent to give investors the opportunity to participate in FPGA Bitcoin mining without purchasing their own hardware. 100% of mining revenue will be distributed proportionally among shareholders. One share of the asset gives you one share of the revenue. Operating costs will be paid for by shares held by the operator of the asset. Each share represents a share in the ownership of the hardware. Motions to sell more shares can be raised by shareholders if 25% agree. 70% of shareholders will need to agree to issue the proposed shares. In the event of liquidation, all revenue will be distributed evenly to shareholders. The operator reserves the rights, regardless of the amount of shares owned, to raise a motion, and sell all hardware. Dividends will be paid weekly. Further information can be found at http://cognitivemining.com/If you have any questions, comments, or criticism, I appreciate it! Please clarify:  https://blockchain.info/tx/5e7bc1fa1c008bccd9496d24d979b2e3e7df17e8586a24f3787901eddbcea7fb4.09573021 coins leaving from 1cogxXy to - 1.91145049 to 1Gw8o, the Cognitive havelock deposit address. This is the 10420 shares * 0.00018344 btc dividend per share. - 1.91145049 to 1coggh, the Cognitive reinvestment fund, now at only 11.2291 btc instead of 15. - 0.27272926 to 1Garr255, Garrett's public personal address... but why?? The contract states that all operating costs will be covered by the operators shares. I don't see any valid reason to send Cognitive funds straight to Garretts address. Did you not make a separate wallet for Cognitive, resulting in sending all change money to your personal wallet? Please keep personal wallets separated from Cognitives. Any coin that goes to 1coggh, intended or not, belongs to Cognitive.Furthermore, please explain the other spend: https://blockchain.info/tx/fa314a18eba1ecd356cec0af2880e6834b401b241cec07ac8f0234cd4b60b244- 3.2btc leaving from 1cogxXy to 1LQFqj? Why not keep all funds in the 1cogxXy address?  Our demand (for months now) is that you post ALL the addresses that are used & owned by Cognitive. You don't use it for personal loans. What is so hard about sending all mining proceeds weekly for 50% to 1cogxX (savings) and the other 50% to 1Gw8o (havelock divs), without sending the change to your personal address... It's unbelievable that you are in bitcoin for 2-3 years and that it takes you months to get this sorted. The last dividend was almost 5 times higher than the last 2 divs, which means 80% pct of the current hashrate is due to the new CT gear. That gear was paid for about 90% with fresh CogF funds... which means these people deserve to get their piece right now, not when eventually half of all the ordered hash rate arrives. Edit: it's plain simple. Any spend of btc that does not go to havelock dividends, requires an explanation and a vote. All other costs are on you. AFAIK you have plenty of shares to get around. O.o |

Hi everybody.
It looks like the writing is on the wall for mtgox.
There must be lot's of people like me who only had a small amount there, less than ten bitcoins. I also had 1000 euro's in withdrawal limbo since last month. Like a total fool, I transferred my bitcoin there just before all this started in order to cash out at the higher gox price. Now it looks like mtgox is all broken.
Is there any way to recover some of my losses? I read about a "multi plaintiff suit" on another thread but they were only interested in people who lost $10000 or more. My 2.34 BTC I still had on gox might get called "property" of mtgox and be given to other investors or creditors to pay them off. That wouldn't be fair at all. 2.34 BTC may not sound like much but it was a lot to me. Regardless of whether they are property or currency, they are still mine and I should get them back if they have them.
What would be the best way for small investors like me to get some of our funds back from mtgox?

bit book, are you going to have spring training MLB? and will you have 1st 5 inning bets?
We probably won't have spring training, but we do offer 1st 5 inning bets. I make a lot of losing bets on your book. I would really like to see MLB spring training games. It has taken a while, but I have really come to like your book. Spring training is a lot of really fun and unique bets. Games are hard to predict since every two innings is a new pitcher. Don't price shit like dumbasses and I will happily lose more money to you if you offer Spring training games than if you don't offer them. |

PR, no gloating about how poopscoop supposedly predicted the gox clusterfuck?
They have probably pointed out in plenty of other places that MP predicted lots of impending Gox fail, back in April 2013 |

regardless of the content of the ponzis, they are breaking the "one site per thread" rule by copy-pasting the scams to new domains almost daily.
I'm all for "games and rounds" housing them all for now also if making a new sub is too hard.
I dunno how dishostest these ponzis are being, but recently Seals has been hacked at least once. A couple nights ago I tried Seals ring games for the first time in a while and they were dead. Only so much of this degregation in the Bitcoin gambling scene (because Seals WAS the center) is embarassing. |

How do I get my bitfury 400 unit to mine this. I'm trying to join the pool below. http://coinminer.net:19982/static/When I enter the information on my bitfury chainminer page I get no hashrate. The other option is if I can get my bitfury through chainminer to connect to my cgminer on my desktop and run it solo this way. I have a 5 g/hash burnin board doing this now (found my first block) and it works fine. I tried so far and can't get it to connect to my pc so I'm not sure if chainminer is sending requests back to my desktop or not. I did make a altcoin.conf file and ran the altcoin-qt -server command under command prompt and that's up and running. Whoever helps me get this up and running I'll donate ATC too. At the moment with that hardware... Mine solo. |

Here's my first draft... It's not much, but if you feel like it's worth a few ALT, my ALT wallet is at AiBHiFN1FZ26uTNvEKyPX6SpAtbkN4EdAL
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
