Umm.. Yes, that is why I withdrew it from the bank on the said day two weeks ago, and bought bitcoin at EUR 72, clever me 

So why is somebody selling it all the way down to $160, I'm asking??!?1

Oh, 40 minutes ago I thought we would never see $160 again. Man, I was wrong...

I, for example. Only serve the EU, though. Have been full time precious metals dealer since 2006. See the links below for details.

!!!SPOILER ALERT!!!

Proudhon's single digits are per mBTC.

Believe me, I switched into mBTC last Friday, and it's so much more comforting to see price swinging between .14 and .20 on the same day, rather than $140 and $200 He has known that all the time  

Thanks for feature   

I am not accusing anyone of scam. All I was saying, which holds true until now, is:

"In my opinion, MPEx is heading into such huge losses from net short position in USD/BTC rate in April and/or May, that the guarantor of last resort, Mircea Popescu, cannot pay."

First, this is my opinion, albeit solidly grounded on MPEx's own published data.

Second, I am more happy to be wrong than right on the issue, since I don't want to see people lose money when they are right (i.e. if they have bought calls, in the event that MPEx defaults).

There are already bullion dealers around who only sell from their own stock.

I think the guy who just bought 6,600,000,000.00 microBTC with a mere 1,000,000.00 USD is laughing his ass off.

Heh. Luckily my buys for today were consummated at $143. Nice to see the other guys are in action 

Hello you, are you now auctioning away MY stock or what was it..? 

I recently secured about 20 BTC1 coins and the same number of BTC5. All are the most recent version.

I have about one BTC1, BTC5 and BTC25 left from 2011. If you have market for these, you can buy them in bulk.

Oh btw. thanks for the coin I got from post office last week. that was nice, pleasure to do business with you 

Wow, what a story!

The quota was only for the below-spot special deal. I think frm the top of my head, that I can still send about 300 rounds to Germany at least before the VAT quota takes effect.

Oh please guys.. We are going to $200, but not before Wednesday. Saturday is a time of quiet accumulation, not making of an ATH...

I kind of expect that this supposed "wealth" will be just erased in our lifetime. Just.. it never existed in real world anyway. It never was gold, or anything tangible. All positive entries in anyone's bank balances are negative in somebody else's. In the "liabilities" column it is called "bad debt". It is not repayable. Cyprus shows us that the balances can just vanish, without anyone even trying to extract payment from the debtors of the bank.

It is a great charade. Big boys can make you suffer, no matter if you are long or short fiat. They are the moneymasters. They may or may not control bitcoin, but everyone knows that they do control the dollar, euro, gold and to a great extent silver. If some of them hold some of the $32,000,000,000,000 out there, they know it is not wealth. "Whenever destroyers appear among men, they start by destroying money, for money is men's protection and the base of a moral existence. Destroyers seize gold and leave to its owners a counterfeit pile of paper. This kills all objective standards and delivers men into the arbitrary power of an arbitrary setter of values. Gold was an objective value, an equivalent of wealth produced. Paper is a mortgage on wealth that does not exist, backed by a gun aimed at those who are expected to produce it. Paper is a check drawn by legal looters upon an account which is not theirs -- upon the virtue of the victims. Watch for the day when it bounces, marked: "Account overdrawn"." (- Rand) The rest of the $32T is held by public, no less gullible than the ones who take mortgages to buy overvalued houses and expect to get away without punishment.

The ones who have the gold, make the rules. Or silver. Or bitcoin. Buy these. Forget about hoarding fiat balances, and don't play with debt.

Ugh.

I heard a cool idea from my network, I wonder if this would gain any traction:

Website has odds for 24 hour maturity USDBTC betting, simply in the following way

BULL = If price after 24 hours is at least $149
GOAT = If price after 24 hours is between $138 - $149
BEAR = If price after 24 hours is less than $138

Automatic operation pays out 2x if your prediction is right, nothing if it is wrong. Payout is always double. The rate brackets are constantly fluctuating according to a formula, also the maturity is 24 hours from the timestamp. Therefore two bets are never equal.

Technically this could be made rather elegant. Also, because nobody's coins are locked for more than 24 hours ever, the trust issues can be easily overcome. The operator can guarantee all outstanding bets with an automatic, or 3rd party, escrow deposit.

I can also do along these lines, with probably better terms. PM if interested.

I have lowered the shipping to BTC0.3, also the dollar price is cut because of silver price falling. Feel free to take advantage of the new rates in the OP. If you want to order 100+ ounces, PM me!

BTC0.01 higher than the maples. You can order them with the same procedure, just add the premium and indicate it in the PM, thank you.

Judging from the OP, I don't ship to the U.S. nor anywhere else except continental European Union, thank you.

I don't have Phils or Libertads in any serious quantity. The products that I carry in bulk are Silver American Eagle, the Maple Leaf and 90% circulated silver coins.
