You could mine the CPU only currencies in which GPU/ASICS are not accepted. I know YAC coins but they aren't very profitable with increased total network hashes. but I didn't know XPM are CPU only.

from looking at older topics here,I guess no one predicted it would be this big,I also saw posts about an old wallet used to give 50 btc's for entering captcha. even if satoshi decided to use that system years ago,and even if he got millions of e-mails it might be considered as spam.

A Hedge Fund manager thinking positively of bitcoins,that's good for a change as many if not most of the others say things like "I don't know about it" or "it's not backed by a country/bank so it's not worth it".

I doubt that will happen,IMHO they will go to some committee,discuss for few days,everything sorted out with conditions and everything back to normal. it would take tons of stupid leaders to go into war which won't benefit any of the involved countries.
745  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: bitcoin worth $98500 says this article on: December 04, 2013, 07:44:37 PM
Not now at least,price depend on demand and sell which is at the $1xxx in most exchanger at this time and this is the actual price. Further estimations are predictions and nothing confirmed.

Mtgox must be busy with all the tickets they are recieving regarding fiat withdrawals/bitcoins etc... so it might be a long wait for them to respond,also don't they have a number for immediate contact during work hours?.
747  Other / Meta / Re: Petition: disable 'self-moderation' on: December 04, 2013, 07:31:32 PM
I too don't like censorship but sometimes moderated threads are of good use -in case of trolls posting meaningless stuff or out-of-topic is contests or similar and the moderators can't maintain every thread on this large forum.
748  Other / Meta / Re: Was today's shutdown a DDOS? on: December 04, 2013, 07:29:45 PM
Nah, More of a man-in-the-middle attack,I guess the shutdown was intentional to avoid further hacks/loss of info until the intruder is removed from the system and everything is cleaned.
749  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Block erupters absolutely waste of money now? on: December 04, 2013, 07:15:19 PM
More of for-fun now,you can get some for 0.035 but it won't be profitable or even ROI with the current difficulty and it's hash power. maybe using it to mine other alt-currencies might produce some profit?
750  Other / Meta / Re: So Is The Forum All Cool And Secure Now? on: December 04, 2013, 07:13:24 PM
Using a separate password for every site is the best solution to avoid such hacks it seems but then the user might forget one of them or more but still it will secure the accounts from hacks and even better if google authorization is used.
751  Other / Meta / Re: Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again. on: December 04, 2013, 07:10:24 PM
Not necessarily hacked  Tongue ,Maybe changing IP during the session give such an error? or a glitch in the site settings?
752  Other / Meta / Re: 1 account per ip, on: December 04, 2013, 07:07:41 PM
No such limit exists.
I guess that clear things.
The only limit for using more than one account is to the number of posts from an IP (360 seconds for less than 10 activity).
753  Other / Meta / Re: Suggestion: lowering the search time limit on: December 04, 2013, 07:03:24 PM
The search limit is important to avoid ddos'ing and abuse of resources by this way (1000 people searching every 3 seconds will be tough for the server). though 90 seconds is too much,perhaps 10-20 seconds will be more suitable.
754  Other / Meta / Re: [URGENT HELP MODS] This guy -ve repped me for no reason :( on: December 04, 2013, 06:58:15 PM
No moderation is done on feedbacks ,But his feedback will be visible and important to only people who trust him,As long as they are not many it shouldn't be an issue. You might contact him and try to convince him to remove it.
755  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 2013-12-04 Yahoo: Bitcoin Alternative Quark (QRK) Increases In Value 500% on: December 04, 2013, 06:53:53 PM
it's surprising that alt-currencies are getting some attention together with btc. At least this will add some competition and further markets and trading possibility than just btc/ltc markets.
756  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It took 10 seconds for the brainwallet "password1" to be taken on: December 04, 2013, 02:40:00 PM
There are safer ways to hold into btc's ,it's clear that some people generated thousands if not millions of wallets and are using bots with bruteforce to break any weak passwords. To have a somehow moderate wallet you might need to enter a semi-impossible to imagine word with letters/number/signs etc... making it hard for you to remember. Paper wallets might be more useful.
757  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Name something you've actually BOUGHT with bitcoin on: December 04, 2013, 02:31:07 PM
PayPal money!. and saving btc's isn't that bad if you don't find interesting stuff to use them for.
758  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How come there are no woman using Bitcoins? on: December 04, 2013, 02:27:33 PM
There are multiple females using btc's but not as much as males,though females have some bases and increased numbers specially in China  Tongue . Though the percentage of males in BTC's are more.
759  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is BTC-e scamming you? on: December 04, 2013, 02:25:21 PM
Why are  non-us based exchanges asking for ID verification? especially anonymous ones run out of Russia or Bolivia or wherever it is.
They still require ID verification for any payment there bank sees as suspicious for anything from fraud and hacked accounts to money laundring,Banks have limits regarding privacy wherever they are located.
also btc-e itself might be asking for those to avoid possible chargebacks if the accounts were fake.
