I now work for a company that resells utility services(gas, electricity, phone). I am actively engaging the executives within this organization and sharing my excitement and knowledge of Bitcoin. Some day, soon, someone is going to make this happen and it will be BIG Fing news.

The 24h weighted prices is stored in

Code:
$bitcoincharts_array['24h'];

Forget the table stuff.. Just divide your dollar price by that value and you've got the price in BTC.
603  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Bitcoin wordpress plugin for live mtgox pricing on: April 26, 2012, 01:06:12 PM
I have some PHP at coinbus.com that displays live and weighted prices. It was derived, if not flat out plagiarized from some other code here on the forums. You're welcome to it.

Code:
<?php
        
//first fetch the current rate from https://mtgox.com/api/0/data/ticker.php
        
$ch curl_init('https://mtgox.com/api/0/data/ticker.php');
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_REFERER'Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MtGox PHP client; '.php_uname('s').'; PHP/'.phpversion().')');
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_USERAGENT"CakeScript/0.1");
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_HEADER0);
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER1);
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOSTfalse);
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEERfalse);
                
$mtgoxjson curl_exec($ch);
                
curl_close($ch);
               
        
//decode from an object to array
                
$output_mtgox json_decode($mtgoxjson);
                
$output_mtgox_1 get_object_vars($output_mtgox);
                
$mtgox_array get_object_vars($output_mtgox_1['ticker']);


        
//first fetch the current rate from http://bitcoincharts.com/t/weighted_prices.json
        
$ch curl_init('http://bitcoincharts.com/t/weighted_prices.json');
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_REFERER'Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; BitcoinCharts PHP client; '.php_uname('s').'; PHP/'.phpversion().')');
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_USERAGENT"CoinBus.com/0.1");
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_HEADER0);
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER1);
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOSTfalse);
                
curl_setopt($chCURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEERfalse);
                
$bitcoinchartjson curl_exec($ch);
                
curl_close($ch);
               
        
//decode from an object to array
                
$output_bitcoincharts json_decode($bitcoinchartjson);
                
$output_bitcoincharts_1 get_object_vars($output_bitcoincharts);
                
$bitcoincharts_array get_object_vars($output_bitcoincharts_1['USD']);

Tuxavant: Actually, that was my first idea, have it show a QR code on an LCD. But the second you've scanned that QR code, your air gap is only as good as the device you scanned it into, and if that's good why not just generate the code on it? So this printer would be for folks who want their private key never to have touched a machine that will ever be networked.


For my intended purpose, this device would be an off-line wallet generator and storage device. You only trust the private keys generated by the device until you need to spend the money. That's when you'd display the private keys on the LCD display and sweep them into a private wallet for spending.

Edit: Perhaps displaying the key on the LCD panel might give you the option to actually delete it, or at least mark it "compromised".

I'm not much of a camguy, but what about GTalk/Google Hangouts? Does skype even do conferences?
606  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Air gapped wallet printer on: April 25, 2012, 02:18:31 PM
This needs a simple LCD display to show QR codes for a truly air-gapped implementation. Count me in for at least one.

Too many bones for me to get a booth and a job (got laid off while back) fell out of the sky and hit me on the head this week, so I'm all booked up.

Jim, I just sent this translation request to my vietnamese friend that did the satoshi whitepaper translation. I hope she has time for this.

I have to disagree with you there Tuxavant. A significant percentage of 'individuals' have no idea. Individuals who aren't motivated to put their money back into the economy and stimulate growth don't know what is best.


So you're saying the majority of people save their money and/or do investments? I'd say it's the exact opposite - people spend what they have on what they perceive they need, paycheck-to-paycheck. You can't get any more free-market than that. That is people putting their money back into the economy every chance they get.

I do everytime I want to tip someone. I usually come back to see the comment riddled with Bitcion hate (not from the OP, but other commenters). Sigh.

When, oh, when will artists like this begin to learn about Bitcoin? I wish so badly that I could send this talented guy a tip for making me enjoy a few moments of my life.

I get regular tips, especially to the one that supports my two tor exit nodes.
613  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: BitcoinSpinner on: April 22, 2012, 01:29:27 PM
Just checking. Bought a new phone and transferred my wallet nicely - then uninstalled BitcoinSpinner from the old phone. That gets rid of all copies of the secret key in the old phone, correct?

Short of literally wiping the phones storage system, there's always a chance of the key being left behind. I'd spend the money to a new wallet.

I'm happier when invididuals pay low taxes because they always know how to make a free economy work and what best to do with their money whether they took macroeconomics or not.
615  Economy / Services / Re: Safe Cold Storage? on: April 17, 2012, 05:18:20 PM
I understand most of this but one thing I dont get is how do you sign a transaction again using the paper private key? where do you 'enter' it? can you use the paper key that armory generates at a later time in the future without using armory again? if so how?

This article has an example for importing an off-line key, and creating an off-line transaction:

http://bitcoinmagazine.net/brain-wallets-the-what-and-the-how/

off-line transactions can be "injected" into the network/blockchain at bitsend.rowit.co.uk
