Looks like it had a positive influence on the other exchange sites. A take-over could be hanging in the air by the look of things for Gox.

That could be interesting and might even be good for the bitcoin community if a reliable party bought Gox.

How about we talk about CASH ? What role did it play in drugs and still does ? <cough>

The best thing about a decentralized cryptocurrency is that the market will make the corrections sooner or later and carry on. Even if Gox disappears there are enough small and big exchanges running and process a much larger share compared to Gox. That said, lets hope Gox comes forward with what is happening and if they are being pressured by some external force in some way.

Changing the core principles of bitcoin makes it worthless. Then people might as well keep using the traditional ways to make payments. Anyway, we would dump it in a heartbeat if bitcoin core principles were changed and another coin would take its place quickly.

Usually what happens is "they" select a judge which will rule in their favor. It's that simple and has been done for many years to buy time, do damage control and so on.

Most likely your transfer has been halted for review / investigation by either the bank risk department or a thirdparty with an interest. This can happen randomly with transfers over 10k in general. They can't say anything yet about it until they are allowed. Bitstamp has most likely nothing to do with it.

Just a little while ago bitcoin was hovering at about 80-110 USD. Then some news flashes got out which were positive for bitcoin and it went sky-high. Keep in mind that part of it is real and a big part currently is still speculators hoping for it to keep going up and cash in. It's still early days to see a trend where it can remain stable or show an average over time

It'll probably hit the speculation market hard (read: pump/dump), but for day to day real economic trade it's business as usual.

Nice art ! As for the topic starter, yes we've been accepting for a while BTC and LTC which fits nicely with the privacy services offered !

Sad that even under hardcore users this hasnt provided more replies. But dont worry, in Europe its not different, 70% dont understand this and out of the 30% 20% think they have nothing to hide.
Sad but true although the last couple of years this is very slowly changing.

Heh...such an intrusion into our privacy could one day become the first step toward privatization of the roads.
That's already happening up to some height by having corporations "invest" in infrastructure like tunnels, highways in exchange they are allowed to ask for a fee before one can make use of them. The funny thing which seem to always sell people on privacy invading devices / services etc; - brings safety - brings comfort - brings profit Until policies, management, governments (etc) change and use it for something else if it wasn't done already in the first place.

Could be a failing drive or filesystem issue. Try running the Disk Utility to see what it finds.

One of the reasons, imo, is that if a country leaves the EU and they suddenly start to do better again despite the first few years others will follow. Not because of pro-EU politicians but because people will finally wake up and vote for anyone else who can get them out of the EU. Also interesting to see how the people in the UK will vote, if allowed, before 2017 about staying or leaving the EU.

Another sign of what has been in the works for years throughout the world. Also, the fact that their card processor dictates indepth to what they must do and not is bizar.

Sometimes we wonder where all this is going to end ? What is next, a camera in the living room for each U.S citizen ?

It's possible something is wrong with your virtual machine. On a clean system to run bitcoind 1GB should not cause the process to die. Check also your diskspace assigned just in case.

Yesterday I got a letter from my bank (German bank) telling me they would reduce the amount I can send from 25000€ to 5000€. My gf who is at another bank got her limit reduced to 2000€ 2-3 weeks ago. They say one can manually increase it by calling them but this increase is only a temporary thing then.... idk what to think about it =/
This is going on for a few years already when it started with limiting cash transactions in several countries. Not surprised if banks are busy also lowering limits for accountholders in most of the developed world. This might have to do with new rules to increase their buffers but also to prepare for a SHTF scenario. Although in that case the 0's and 1's won't matter much anymore ...

I think it's not the public faces of mtgox which are responsible for all these issues. All this looks more like a Sword of Damocles in the shape of some gag-order and active supervising by a thirdparty. Don't forget that they are in Japan which might as well make them sit in the middle of the US.
