I would suggest you post this thread on the mining section and on /r/bitcoinmining in order to get interest from miners.
Yes I plan to I just don't want to look like I am spamming all the treads, not my intension. You can MOVE this thread by using the control at the lower left. Also, what escrow will you be using? Good old handshake, that's kind of the point. We are small, hometown trust. I understand this sounds naive but it works. Kind of a hard thing to find these days and if someone is not willing to trust that is fine; it's a big world please go somewhere else. No hard feelings at all.

Very interesting idea. What do you plan on using the old hardware for? ASICs can't really be repurposed.
Mostly salvage, but we have solar so some dead chips don't bother us much.

My last post to these boards was Dec. 2013
Since that time I have seen and even fell for some scams, time to go scam free. I (we) buy miners, simple to the point.
No scam, No BS. Check out our pitch, do with it what you will http : // btcm . co
Have a good day all

Hello,
My last post on bitcointalk was Dec. 19 2013. This was quite some time ago. Since that time I have speculated, bought goods and services, and started a small mine farm.
Now, instead of taking from bitcoin I want to give back. Since 2013 I think I have seen and heard just about everything, including so many scams it is ridiculous. I have even fallen for a few myself, just makes one feel sick to trust and have that trust stepped on.
So I have started my own company. I know sounds just like another spam pitch right. Ok so it is, forgive me it is well intentioned.
I have heard of too many miners falling for buy back scams so I have started my own. Yes I will make money but the idea is that we all make money.
Go look over my pitch or don't it is up to you. I want a new company with a new way, and this is the best I could do.

Made it so it was not a link... I am not a spammer, do with it what you will

Your programming skills? This is open source! I was implying for you to "write" it. I would use C++

@majorX I am not say to not protect yourself. But fostering such ideas as bitcoin needs to kill HD's just for protection is wrong. If you leave your leather wallet just sitting around someone will take it and you will lose. Your bitcoin wallet is the same, you need to take care of it. But how much is overkill?
How about this, since you can have as many wallets as you want why not make as many as you want and keep less than .00001 in each one. Then when you want to make a transaction combine them for that transaction only.
In all seriousness is there a way to do this? Spread 0.001 btc over multiple addresses and then combine them? Possible, but the fees would be high. If paper wallets used for 0.001 btc / address it would be a lot of work  Kind of my point to begin with, yes there are bad apple hacking addresses and wallets but the time and resources involved it's easier to just trade. Now this will be a different story if we see the highest of lets say 1 BTC = $47,000 but by that time someone will build counter measures. That is unless you have dozens or hundreds of BTC. Then you can be darn sure someone is watching your every move.

Hi Ed my name is Ed too
I think there is a lot of overkill on this. I've been involved with IT since 1986 and one thing I know of a fact is that hacking takes time and money. NO one is going to spend more time and money then it would take to mine bitcoin just to grab a few mBTC's. If your wallet is off-line don't worry about it. All this "booting" and other nonsense is just not necessary. Just place your wallet in an external HD and disconnect whenever you are not using it. Then let time take care of security. Meaning that this is open source, better security options are and will be developed as bitcoin matures. Just make sure you have a good password.

@hilariousandco this is what I am saying, more people need to be educated about value, whatever that is. "Just Do It" is not working. As a trader, speculator, or investor it only makes common sense to have the consumers on our side. How do we do this? We inform them of stuff (Goods and Services) they can get.
We, who invest and trade the currencies need the consumer more than they need us. It only makes sense to push hard to the consumer that they "need" this, they want this, that they can fulfill their wants and needs. This is psych 101; get someone to point B so your point A goal is reached.
We win if they use, and by default we all win.

I agree very much with the idea that more people need to know, understand, and use before we see a stable index. When I tried to explain bitcoin to co-workers one of the biggest questions I heard was "what backs this." I was hard pressed to explain that same value that backs the USD was what backs bitcoin. Someone tried to say the the USD was backed by gold. I tried to tell them that the "gold standard" was no longer the case and has not been for a long time. I think here in lies part of the problem with bitcoin. Many people do not even understand their own USD much less understand a new form of currency. As I have said in other posts, the single best thing that can be done to increase acceptance is to inform as many people as we can that good and services can be bought.
As this will also increase the value of bitcoin, it's a win win to educate everyone.

For your first post you spam the boards?

@cyberkiller Hey I just want you to know that I strongly feel more people should know about sites that accept bitcoin. I want nothing from you but I just tweeted and fb your site.
POWER to the BIT

Don't sweat the swings. It's going to happen throughout Bitcoin's life. Just hold and be happy to be a part of it all.
I guess in my limited vocabulary this is what I am saying. Don't focus on the markets move so wildly, this is expected. Focus rather on getting more people to understand the benefits.

No I am not talking pump and dump, what I am saying is the bitcoin (crypto currency) is here, and will be now forever. It's the infrastructure that needs tending to. Example: when I try to explain bitcoin to family or friends the very first words out of their month is, "what can you do with bitcoin." What I am saying is that it will only benefit bitcoin, bitcoin use, and bitcoin markets if the bitcoin communities EDUCATE rather than try to dominate. NO pump and dump, but pump! The more "public awareness" the better bitcoin will function as a whole. And this in turn will help every one including traders. Therefore it is in everyone's best interest to educate the masses in the use of digital currencies.

In relation to my last post:
If everyone on bitcointalk posted a blog, make a tweet, or posted an FB status, or for that matter any social media activity in relation to bitcoin at the exact same time on the exact same day you/us as traders would see the benefit with in hours.
But this is nothing new! Big corporations do it daily. They know and time their advertizing to the second. What is the real goal of CEO's and presidents....? PUMP the stock!! How? Sell the goods!

I've been a long time stock player, made a fortune in 2008 off of AIG and Citi Group, now it's bitcoin plays that interest me, why? Because of it's volatility! I as with many speculate that "corrections will be made from time to time; what bitcoins volatility charts show is when to buy and when to sell. But this truly means nothing unless the value can be turned into good and services a consumer wants.
Here in is the problem, if as a trader you want more consumer goods using bitcoin what should you do?
#1 quick hipping the trades and start selling! You do this buy pointing consumers to the websites and businesses which accept bitcoin in trade.
#2 There is NO number two; as a trader help promote websites and businesses. it's common sense. Your goal may be to trade but it's and "end justifies the means" type of deal. Don't sell the market, no one cares and unless they understand trading they will never get involved.
Write blogs about the websites the accept bitcoin, tweet businesses that accept bitcoin. Stop talking bitcoin to people who do not understand and start selling the goods and services. The learning curve of bitcoin will follow at it own pace.
And any trader worth their salt knows one simple fact.... Who cares what the price is! If you buy low and sell high you make money. The problem is do you have enough money to play the game low as well as high!
