They looked promising, too. Such a shame. Now I don't feel bad about paying the high fees at Virwox.
have you read their terms of service? several times i was looking to open account there and each time the TOS stopped me. It can be summarized as "we don't guarantee anything, you guarantee everything, and we can claim your firstborn as a collateral". Assholes. |

The US healthcare is pretty much directed by the government as is. The government is now taking complete control and not half assing it. I still have 2 years and my hope that it will go away some how.
It was already half-assed under partial government control. Now that control is complete, the system goes fully assed |

I consistently see better deal on moneypak, than exchanges. The fact that the rates are better make me wonder if there are some shenanigans going on. However, it's my understanding that those must be physically purchased in stores, I don't see "buy online" option on those. So I can't see how those could be obtained in any illegal fashion. Anyone knows?

Id be happy to kick them to the curb, but need an alternative. I see a LOT of complaints about Coinbase but very few alternatives for US customers.
Learn to WoT. There's never an acceptable justification for giving money to known scam artists. And that's the lesson, folks. It's not about cheering on crap that clearly has no business handling your money, and relying on Nanny Gov to help you out when shit inevitably hits the fan. It's about taking responsibility for yourself and not using services like these. The warnings have been ample. i don't see too much trade going there... is localbitcoins a better alternative? i had much better success there. And they have escrow |

I generated/imported a vanity address and for some reason not only it triggered a blockchain rescan, but FULL rescan, starting with 2009. Can we have a feature to:
1. Optionally tell client to not rescan blockchain when importing address? This is useful when we have a known fresh address where we don't expect to see balance
2. If it rescans, then at least scan from the client default checkpoint block, not download the whole whatever petabytes is in the blockchain now. That's the whole reason I'm using multibit instead of reference client - to avoid having to manage the full blockchain

You are right!!! I'm on the latest block now. Weird, it still says "2 months ago", but that's clearly BS: http://vvcap.net/db/hPxkh3esC8Nn_k8CeqeL.htp |

For some reason, my armory stops at block 233400 and won't go any further. Then it says "Connected" and goes green: http://vvcap.net/db/wm35f-O3i1eDW_sRVbqI.htpIn the past, I was able to fix this by rebuilding blockchain (e.g.: start from scratch). That doesn't work anymore! This behavior goes with versions .87, .88 and .88+latest fix. |

Wanting to hire a developer to create a coin mixing service.
The idea is extreme user friendliness, no accounts necessary hopefully. The vision can already be seen with PrimeDice, where one just goes to the main site, enters in their payout address, and after clicking enter a new page opens up with a unique address to deposit.
Want it to be designed for bare minimum fees with option for "Tip" which expedites the mixing service for a specified minimum percentage.
PM me for details, experience, credentials, time frame, price, and ideas.
DISCLAIMER: no intent to act, no legal advice, and no admission of anything in this post. What you are about to open would probably land you in jail for a long time, if you don't cover your tracks well, and you clearly don't. And the ones who will use your service will probably also go down with you. Ever heard of cryptocat, or OTR, or at least PGP? Because it doesn't look like you do. Chances are, you are already exposed. You might not go to jail, but then they make you a snitch. So who in his mind would be using your service? Sending bitcoin to whatever you are about to open is like sending it to a 3-letter agency directly. |

I got USD. Took a week before transfer was initiated
|

Thats good to hear.
For $1000 or less what transfer time do you see from Dwolla to a "real" bank in the US.
(One where you can actually go visit / take your money, spend it on stuff etc)
Are we looking at hours there also - or days?
MtGox to DWOLLA (lately) has been hours for me. When there are no problems, which isn't always a case. DWOLLA will ACH money to your bank - so days after that. if you initiate transfer before noon, ACH has a chance to arrive next morning, and depending on your arrangements with bank, could be spent immediately |

Bringing up an old question:
What is the best way to get USD out of Mt.Gox and into a US bank account (or suggestion?)
How long to transfers out from Mt.Gox take to reach your hands / us account?
THANKS!
Dwolla worked well lately for under $1000 |

Does anyone here actually consult with lawyer, and where do you go looking for one? Most regular lawyers have no idea of FinCEN regulations. The one that my accountant told me to talk to said she doesn't know anything and she can research for me for $250/hr.
Funny, that when I said the word "bitcoin" to her she immediately replied: "Oh, money laundering!!!"

Sorry for the bad prices. Lately, we are getting a lot of orders, and we are running out of capacity. So, it's either reduce the rate or stop accepting orders altogether. If you see a bad rate, best course of action is to wait
Makes sense. That's exactly what I've been doing. Working out wonderfully so far. Should I expect that "rounding error" to remain in there or will that eventually get fixed? Less important being able to do $2000-2500 at a time instead of 10 $500 transactions for instance but still there. You shall. That error originated due to some javascript rounding, that caused system to false flag some orders as invalid, when they really were. But those were the times when bitcoin was worth 5 dollars, not 100, so it wasn't a big deal back then. I could see how that would cause some discontent now. |

I'm still trying to understand what OP's issue is he's so upset about. The government can't control or shut down BTC.
The only thing they can really control is conversion to/from fiat currencies. In my view that's actually a good thing. It'll force BTC users to stop viewing BTC in reference to the USD or EUR and start thinking in terms of BTC as a medium of exchange for goods and services.
OP is upset that he will likely to end up closing the business it took him so much time to build |
