- it is purely digital even if it can take tangible appearance

So is my paycheck, which rarely takes a tangible appearance.  I think I have more physical bitcoins that physical dollars at any given time. I don't even know where my checkbook is, that's probably bad.

This clearly does not meet the standards of the apple fanboys I know.

That's what everyone here has been saying.  Use a web based wallet. Or wait for an update or the other app to launch.

"A digital commodity that behaves like cash" is what I would say to a layperson.

It's not always digital...how about a financial commodity?

Maybe it would be possible to identify more addresses based on activity.  OP's addresses show no activity from Jul/Aug 11 to Jan 12 and mine was the same.  How many other addresses would coincidentally have the same activity? Aug 8 for the latest inactivity, and Jan 7 for the earliest new activity.

Would the list of addresses that sent my payout help? I dug into an old wallet and found the transaction.  I had more there than I thought.

Actually it looks like they are all empty, but I'm fairly certain this is the wallet address 1CQJMVXcvUNfu9TiZuz9UDEZUtvbiGPWBi  no activity from Aug 8 2011 until Jan 7 2012

Heh, I'm going to put this bucket on my head to prove a bucket is something you wear and not something you put lobster in.

Probably not a good idea to mix the two. Unless you want a lobster haircut  Cheesy

Where are you getting the addresses from? And how much did that phony release say they "lost"?

But I just HAVE to use this ipod I got (need it for another project) to hook my apple friends to bitcoin Wink


I see that going horribly wrong.  I've hooked my apple friends with a free QR scanner app, and free Instawallet account.  This needs an update, as it is it will do the opposite of hooking.

Back on topic - I find it best to have some idea who your talking to.  It can be a commodity to someone who trades or invests in commodities, it can be money for a merchant looking for lower fees or someone looking to send money across borders, and it doesn't have to be electronic as there are several different types of physical bitcoins available.  Tailor it to the person, and keep it simple.  Once they are interested you can go into more details.

I think the appearance of support in the blocks will be the deciding factor on implementing the function.  Your just saying yes I would like this change added by signing P2SH into our blocks. That was my understanding anyway, but like I said, it's a bit over my knowledge level.

I'm sure thee is a thread in technical discussion that's way over my head, but Coinlab posted this:

Quote
Especially of note  is that Gavin asked miners who agreed with the proposal to add the string “P2SH” in blocks they mine; he will count blocks mined during January to determine how the BitCoin mining community ‘votes’ on this issue. This is an interesting and novel development in BitCoin governance, and we look forward to seeing how this ‘voting’ mechanism evolves.

I was just wondering if it is going in our blocks.

Inaba, how is the Pay to Script vote handled with pooled mining? I'm assuming the decision is yours?

How about SMS notifications? Or push alerts with the app.

FYI no smart-phone.  Could be an issue.  How does he address the non-smart-phone user?  With...cash?  Hell no.

You could really confuse him and give him a physical bitcoin and have a paper QR for him to send the change, or just leave the change for a tip.

I don't know what it all means, but it is fun to watch.

I don't have twitter, but I have some bitcoins...sent 1 each.  Good luck at the show.

I think if I was involved with mybitcoin and had just been caught in another lie, I would be posting something like how everyone was stupid and there is no place for law enforcement in Bitcoin. I'd really hate to have people talking about perusing legal action for me not stealing the coins they have given to me, which I clearly spelled out on my con website that they were just donating for my vacation in Fiji.
639  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: MyBitcoin has started spending our stolen coins on: January 09, 2012, 06:40:05 PM
I only had a couple coins there and may still have an address - I'll have to check later.  I never thought to check the balance after the "payout".  Maybe there is a way to start a somewhat anonymous collection of know addresses and check the activity?
640  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: MyBitcoin has started spending our stolen coins on: January 09, 2012, 06:28:39 PM
Even if they are spending the unclaimed coins (which I don't believe) it's still stealing our money in a daylight, isn't it?

Yes. Do you have the time to track all the addresses and hope one lands at an identifiable source? I don't.  And I doubt any law enforcement agency has the time and knowledge.  But if someone here has the time and can collect enough information, maybe it can go somewhere - finally?
