But the bitcoin client/program says Balance: 0.00. Is the client program getting any/many connections, and is it's block chain up-to-date (currently 123,124)? |

Has anyone had any further thoughts on dynamic block size limit, in light of the recent slow down of free transactions recently?
Is the block size limit still a concern?

I didn't do the survey because it's N/A to me, not being into those kind of war games.

Price update: $49,900 per pizza.
I just read this thread for the first time, it's great to read stories from the past like this.

I can't think like that yet because BTC price is still jumping like mad.
It's only jumping like mad if you need to trade in/out of it. There is no jumping if you're just dealing with a 100 BTC payment and a 120 BTC return. As I joked about in another thread BTC is 100% stable, it's all the other currencies that are jumping like mad  |

Is voting over? I haven't seen the count move for a few hours.
It's not over but has definitely slowed down. |

My post is looking rather prescient right now. I'd hate to try and trade this market.
It's easy - you buy as soon as hear about bitcoins as much as you can and never sell  I haven't read one post of a person that bought and a week later regretted the decision. Selling, on the other hand... a lot of people who bought at the 1$ ~ 1.10$ high regretted it until the sudden jump to 3$ Yeah, don't worry about it... if you think it'll get to $20 this year like I do, you'd still do well buying at $5. |

well, fuck my life... 5$? really? I basically lost 150$ right now ,because I sold a few hours too early?
Haha you must have sold to me, I picked up a bunch a few hours ago at about $3.85. |

Someone with $50k to invest is probably smart enough to realize they could have slowly bought over 2-3 days at a much lower cost-average than a single market price order.
Someone with $50k to invest still has to wonder whether someone with $51k is going to get in before them and push the price up. So getting the coins NOW might be important to them for that reason. |

It also has the perverse outcome of removing bitcoins from the economy in case they are lost or destroyed, which is easily mitigated in the digital form by the current ability to easily back up and make copies of wallet files.
Well here's a crazy idea that even I wouldn't like... bitbills.com could somehow backup the wallets they put onto the cards. Put an expiration date on the card, say 10 years into the future. If the card hasn't been imported by that date, bitbills.com can spend those coins. |

I don't mind all the moving, however I'd prefer if it just got completely moved, without leaving behind a message saying where it went.
All those little empty "This has been moved" threads are annoying.
People can always use the search if they're looking for something specific.
If you are a participant in a thread, you will be wondering where the thread goes. And then you will see the search feature and the earth will start rotating again. |

I don't think this idea is sustainable in the long run. It seems kind of wasteful to produce a physical one time use product like this.
Can't it be used over and over again until someone finally decides to convert it back to BTC? These could be traded around a bunch of times and always store their value until the final owner decides to upload the money. Exactly. And for this reason, even a counterfeit card could pass through hundreds or thousands of hands before being discovered as a fake (when someone decides to import it). |

accidentally edited away my own post...
I had written that I'm already thinking of profit/loss in terms of BTC, rather than converting back to fiat amounts.
So for example, if I pay 100 BTC to have a website built when the rate is $4 / BTC, then some would see that as a $400 website.
Then if that website makes me 120 BTC when the rate has dropped to $2 / BTC, then some would see that as a 40% loss ($400 down to $240).
However I see it as a 20% profit because I'm largely ignoring the btc/fiat rates these days.

our adoption likeliness will be very low until we stabilize... companies cant afford there 4$ BTC to be worth 2.5$/BTC the next
You mean until fiat currencies stabilize Einstein's theory of relativity and all |

You can lock it yourself, as the thread creator.
Bottom-left hand corner there should be a lock topic link.

Time to change to 5 hours / 0.1 btc minimum? |

That's basically complexly it. It might be time to rename your thread title. |

Seemly bubble game popularity is decreasing...
I disagree... the first round had fewer participants, mostly the same ads over and over again. This round has a wider variety of ads and one-liners. |
