Going back and renewing it every 24 hours does not seem to work now. Is that part of the deposit issue from earlier today? Thanks.
I temporarily switched to Blockchain.info API during Bitcoinmonitor's outage. Now you can renew addresses as you did it earlier. |

Payment notification service that we use went offline, therefore few previous deposits can be delayed for some time.
UPDATE: Pending deposits processed!

There is an EU-wide legislation that requires to register as "electronic money institution" if you want to exchange from/to fiat any kind of virtual currency.
As I know (but not 100% sure) this license cannot be issued to individual person, so you need to register a corporation.

Although it may not be qualified as theft by criminal law of most states, I think it is still possible to enforce reimbursement of the value of stolen Bitcoins with civil lawsuit.

All the domain names go through ICANN. Many of the domains (.com, nor.org, info, etc) are maintained by registries in the USA. ICANN/IANA delegate the ip's and the country-code domains as well. There are agreements with countries to administer country code 2-letter domains but it still gets administered via ICANN. Maybe those agreements limit what US officials can do for 2-letter domains (I am not sure) but they shut down .com domains all the time. Once case was a Kentucky judge (Home of the Kentucky derby) who said foreign gambling sites were illegal in Kentucky because people who live in Kentucky could use them. I am not sure how it all played out in the end but it disrupted web sites of companies outside the USA. http://www.thedomains.com/2012/03/24/update-in-kentucky-domain-name-case-judge-orders-verisign-to-transfer-132-seized-domain-names-to-kentucky/I very doubt that U.S. could seize .ru domains, otherwise it would raise diplomatic crisis with Russia. .eu is also very safe as used by many gambling sites and haven't ever seized so far. |

Be sure to distinguish between the application of a law and the enforcement of a law. The laws would still apply. The question of how they would be enforced (to which I think you were referring) is a different matter.
The law cannot be applied if there is no treaty between U.S. and other country, in which Uncle Sam try to apply it. |

Any financial transactions involving exchangers and stock exchanges trading bitcoin are now prohibited so am i breaking their TOS if i do deposit to an exchange via OKPAY? I think OKPay added this notice to prevent legal attacks on it, however very unlikely they will froze your funds even if you break ToS (one this accident could drive away >50% of OKPay customers). |

Apparently the laws still apply if you serve U.S. customers, even if the company and the servers are not based in the U.S.
This statement is 100% false for Russia and many other US-unfriendly countries. |

Just locate your exchange outside U.S.

Hi, I'm interested, knowing GERMAN as a native speaker!
Thank you, but we already have German translation. Then maybe you can explain me what for we have 3 options now BTC, mBTC and µBTC if we could have just one ISO XBT like USD EUR PLN GBP and other currencies.
Because BTC, mBTC and µBTC are standardized names in original Bitcoin client and many users are familiar with it. When "XBT" will become more widespread than "µBTC", I will rename it on Peerbet. |

Buy ASICs, despite I know how risky is this investment  |
|

its the same but XBT is easier to type than micro, and like i said we need ISO name anyway that's why some of us are trying to convince people to start using something simple for all to make adoption of bitcoin easier. Also when you are using 50 µBTC or 50 mBTC there is still chance to make mistake because its only one letter difference.
mBTC and µBTC are being used in standard Bitcoin-QT client, so I think it must be more convenient for most people. |

people are used to $1.99 and the difference is that 1btc is one million ( 1 xbt = 100 satoshi) or 100 millions ( 1 satoshi) , the first looks better and its easier to switch to.
Besides we need new name (preferably ISO one) and satoshi would need to be shortened anyway.
there is another reason, 100 satoshi = 1 XBT even more reduces amount of zeroes needed to display value if its more than 100 satoshi and rounded. 100 XBT or 10 000 satoshi or 0.00010000 BTC
currently its really easy to get confused or make mistake especially by newcomers when you see
0.00010010 BTC or 0.00101001 BTC
I just realized that XBT you are asking is the same as µBTC which we already have on Peerbet (1 µBTC = 0.000001 BTC = 100 Satoshi). |

I'm fully aware that america is in fact the centre of the universe by which everything revolves around but before notions that all Bitcoin holders will find themselves in an orange all in one in Guantanamo.
Good luck to U.S. doing this in Russia and China  |

any chances peerbet would change display format of bitcoin to XBT ( 1 XBT = 100 satoshi ) or at last provide option for this?
examples:
0.00062000 BTC = 620.00 XBT
0.41390158 BTC = 413,901.58 XBT
much better to read.
May be better 1 Satoshi? I see that many people write numbers in Satoshis in the chat. |
