81  Economy / Speculation / Charlie Shrem, the Vice Chairman of Bitcoin Foundation Arrested on: January 27, 2014, 05:14:18 PM
Charlie Shrem
Vice Chairman

Currently serving as CEO and co-founder of BitInstant, one of the largest, earliest and well known alternative payment companies, Charlie used his position in both the old banking world and new alternative currency world to help pave the way for the Bitcoin economy to emerge in early 2011. Known in the Bitcoin and old hacker communities as 'Yankee', he is also founding member and current Vice Chairman of the Bitcoin Foundation. Along with Gareth Nelson, he found the need for a more secure, fast and convenient way of transferring funds between and within payment networks around the world and leads BitInstant through the complex compliance, licensing and regulations of the worldwide banking system.

Since "Mr Shrem is a founding member and the current vice chairman of the Bitcoin Foundation" has been arrested at JFK airport and charged with money laundering and drugs, How legitimate is the Bitcoin Foundation gonna look now?

Now its the time for USA agents to revenge, Who is the next?

All Bitcoin Business is in fact less/more relating to SilkRoad, SilkRoad makes Bitcoin's sucess today

It's just about the timing to investigate this fact and get a reason to destroy Bitcoin, then arrest Mtgox/TradeHill/Bitinstant etc.. what will Bitcoin be without black market? Crash!

is Eric turner a China bitcoin business insider? did he show any official documents to prove what he said?

"On January 31st, a new law will be effective in China: 3rd party payment processors will no longer be allowed to trade bitcoins."

third party Bitcoin payment processors including:
Taobao (ebay)
Alipay   (paypal)
Tenpay (another paypal)
Yeepay (another paypal)
.....

this is nothing new, we have already known about this since December 2013, Bitcoin exchangers in China already stopped Deposit/Withdraw from/to 3rd party payment processors and switched funding methods to "China bank account transfers" two months ago

So the only question is, can traders deposit / withdraw money CNY from / to Chinese bitcoin exchangers through China bank account transfers?

As far as i am informed this will not be possible.




could you provide any sources to back your point?

This just came in:

“They also said that Banks could not perform withdraws for the purpose of Bitcoin purchases, [...] that sent a chill through the bitcoin ecosystem”.

Malcom: “So that’s the current state in china – you’re not allowed to use 3rd party payment provider, you’re not allowed to deposit money into your Bank account for Bitcoin.”

i think this is FUD
87  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: MtGox? on: January 26, 2014, 08:16:58 PM
What is going on? They always have a crazy higher BTC price vs other exchanges and it seems to have stayed this way for a very long time.

nothing wrong, mtgox at $990, bitstamp at $822, mtgox has bank withdrawal problem, so the price is higher than others

Mtgox just hit $1037!

Its time to raise! do you think we are going to $2000 this time?
I was just going to post that the MtGox-Bitstamp differential is up to over $190, when it has usually been steady at the $120 range, sometimes going up to $160.  Is the final exodus here when everyone trades their Gox Dollars for BTC at any price just for the chance to get out in time?

nope, btce and bitstamp will follow gox slowly, you just need to wait a little bit. the reason for this delay is because there are more "pros" and "corps" in MTGOX than btce and bitstamp, so it's always MtGox who makes/creates the trend, and others exchangers follow later
93  Economy / Speculation / Re: Mtgox just hit $1037 on: January 26, 2014, 03:48:04 PM
Yes gox will be at $2K while bitstamp is still $830.

MtGox will eventually fix it's transmission problem, BTCE and Bitstamp will follow MtGox's price soon

Why are people still asking the same type of questions that have been asked countless times before?

A simple Google search for 'Mt Gox withdrawal issues' should bring up a huge selection of links  Tongue

Don't you read what 4th said?


Sorry you'll have to rephrase I only speak English?

4th floor told you already that SEPA wire only cost 1-2 weeks to arrive at your bank account! so "Anyone get wire transfer from MtGox recently?" the answer is YES, cool? Learn English btw!

The 4th floor? Are you referring to the floor number of building you are living in, I'd love to see a talking floor, that's a first in my book! By 'cost 1-2 weeks to arrive' do you really mean it will 'take 1-2 weeks to arrive'?

I must admit I could do with learning English, could you perhaps teach me?

I think you'll find that ANY international transfer from Gox is not going to come to fruition any time soon.

Yes same problem. After two months of waiting and constant pestering I decided to cancel my withdraw and do a SEPA withdraw. They don't have any relations with any British banks at the moment or something like that so there is no ETA as to when they can do wire transfers. Buy BTC and then sell in EURO's so you can then do a SEPA withdraw. They take about 2-3 weeks apparently.

go google "google sucks", and you will find out "google does suck"
98  Other / Meta / Stop and Ban those alt coins copycats now on: January 25, 2014, 08:14:17 PM
Almost all(in fact, all) of the alt-coins out there are going to be a waste of time.  They're being created to take advantage of people who get super excited about different things and then get pumped and dumped.

Most alt coins are completely pointless and just poor replicas of what's already out there with little to no improvement.

Those alt coins(junkcoins) are spreading the investment of bitcoin and can't be good for crypto as a whole, they will also destroy people's trust of cryptocurrencies after their crash and run and disapparation. only their "developers" or "early adopters team" will get rich quick by taking your money away.

Bitcoin has a limit of only 21 million, however with all these so called "alt coins", the total number of crypto is in fact unlimited and make all cryptocurrencies end up into a ponzi scheme(only detract from people's perceived value of Bitcoin and the legitimacy of cryptos in general)

Stop and Ban those alt coins copycats now, let the money flow back to the bitcoin!
