1  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How bitcoin sellers are defrauded at localbitcoins.com on: August 07, 2013, 08:32:44 AM
I think the solution logic would be easy:

- IF buyer "marked payment as complete"
- AND dispute is opened by the seller
- AND buyer failed to present any proof of payment (image of receipt, snapshot of "paid" page, transaction id, whatever)
- AND buyer failed to respond on dispute within reasonable time, like 4 hours
- THEN - seller's escrow will be released and transaction cancelled.


Seems that you don't understand what is the point of "Escrow service". It's target is to protect BOTH SELLER and BUYER. You think that it should protect properly only seller?

I think that "two days in escrow" is better solution to you than lost bitcoins.

You may use LB advanced settings to prevent such a situation in future. I have traded quite a lot in LB and I have been in same situation than you. But because first-time buyer limit is low, big amount of bitcoins never held in escrow for long times.

1) I have a few servers laying around I know they don't have a decent GPU due to onboard graphics but is running duel quad core Xeon processers  could they me used for mining?

2) due to GPU mining becoming more difficult is it worth mining at all?


1) No. Server computers are not good for mining, because lack of hi-end GPU:s

2) GPU mining is still profitable, if you already have high-end graphic cards. But I think that it's not good idea to invest GPU:s just now because of ASIC

Hi,

I have used bitcoins for two years now. But not posted much here. I have been in "mining business" too, but now stopped mining because of old hardware. I know how bitcoin works, I have company who accept bitcoins as a payment method.

Now I need to post other forums, and I feel dumb that I have to post X times before I have to go posting to "real forums" Sad

BR, topelius

7  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Earn 131BTC or 12-13BTC for getting shops/organisations to accept Bitcoin! on: April 28, 2011, 07:26:24 AM
I know owners of two companies:

http://www.vannehaku.fi <- Finnish car wheel trading site... They may accept bitcoins for extra visibility of announcements, PR = 4, shop or not?

http://www.hubcentric-rings.com <- International shop for car hub centric rings. PR = 0, but this is really working shop.
It's finnish version is http://www.soviterenkaat.fi

Pagerank is zero, because sites are so new.

Do you accept this? I mean, should I talk with them to accept bitcoin, or wait before hubcentric-rings.com gets PR 3 Wink
