Who am I
I co-founded BitOasis as a (former) CTO. As far as I know we were the first wallet to use multisig with keys distributed among different entities (us/co-signer/backup) without bothering the user to store a private key. Our open sourced multisig wallet: multisig-core and multisig-recovery.

See my PyCoin contributions here.

Why most PGP solutions suck
We used PGP at BitOasis to encrypt sensitive email. For most people, PGP is a pain in the ass.
Non-critical info would often go unencrypted because you don't want to bother the other guy by encrypting it.
If we didn't use PGP for MOST email, it's no wonder others don't use PGP for ANY email. It's too cumbersome.

What I've done about it
I made PGP work just the same as normal email, so that non-technical people can use it. I released my child a few days ago as CryptUP. It's a Chrome plugin and works with Gmail, because that's what I (and a lot of people) use. It's compatible with any other PGP solution though.

Where I need your feedback - improving decade old pains with PGP

Public key management
I'll use Ethereum as a pubkey database for CryptUP users, under the hood. Users' pubkey fingerprints will get submitted to Ethereum blockchain, instead of outdated systems like http://pgp.mit.edu/. Ethereum blockchain can then be queried with DNSChain eliminating man-in-the-middle attacks on exchange of key fingerprints.

The users don't need to know about the Ethereum stuff. It'll just work and I'll pay for the fees, it's a few cents per user.

Public key fingerprint verification
Security of PGP relies on this, but NOBODY does this. Without knowing you talk to the right person, PGP is a placebo. I'll implement fingerprint-to-image converter, where instead of comparing letters and numbers (which nobody will do), I will be displaying a set of icons for contact you talk to. Imagine 4-5 icons per fingerprint, eg: horse, frog, car, sun. It's much easier for humans to notice a discrepancy in icons then "0D5688EBF3102BE7".

Let me know what you think
As is, I think (and people tell me) CryptUP is the easiest to use PGP plugin. Setup, conversations, attachments, it just does what you expect your standard email to do, plus encrypted.

Let me know your thoughts, it's available here:

And the source code is here:

You need to look at the motivation though. What has an "attacker" to gain from buying coins on your account?

That being said, I will support any effort to add Google 2 Factor, the code is open source after all. Anyone who wants to look into this, I'll be happy to help you out.

Hey, here's most of what you'll need: https://github.com/tomholub/coinbaseorders . I'll help you set up dev environment so you can run it locally. Happy for any help! :-)

I've submitted it on BitHack competition by Coinbase, thanks guys for suggestions.

If price suddenly drops to $300, all the orders will get executed, so you'll get 6 btc in total, at various prices.

Sure,

1, open coinbaseorders.com
2, sign up with email/password (different than on Coinbase!)
3, confirm email address by clicking on a link that you receive
4, back on the app, click "connect to coinbase" button and it will take you to Coinbase website. It will ask you for permissions to Buy, Sell, view balance, and view transaction history on your coinbase account. All this is happening on Coinbase website.
5, confirm. it takes you back to coinbase orders. My app receives tokens and will use these tokens to communicate with Coinbase API to put orders on your account.
6, go to "orders" page. Put in a order that you want to buy at, say 2BTC at $550.
7, have a sound sleep
8, when the price drops down, to $550 or less, the app will connect to your Coinbase account with the tokens it has, and buy or sell appropriate amount
(9, when you don't want to use the app anymore, click on "Disconnect from Coinbase" button that will remove your tokens from my database)

- tokens are stored encrypted in database
- have to be used with my own private keys stored out of the database
- have limited privileges

The only "risk" I can think of is that the app would not buy your coins when it should, due to error, which happened to 3 few users already (of 160) and I'm solving it with Coinbase devs right now.

DrBitcoin - yup, could have even gotten some cheaper ones! :-)

Recently got some help with development from Matt Faus as seen on GitHub commit that is now live on the site: https://github.com/tomholub/coinbaseorders/commit/40c34756c9d52cf2a47440b7beaabbe2f274b7b0

Any other developers around? I'll help you set up your dev environment and will help overcome any hurdles to make it easy for you to contribute.

Hey guys, some people just got their coins at around $400. I personally got a pleasant $425.

Some statistics:
142 registered users
745 orders placed
285 orders executed

It's getting more robust over time, I'm continually fixing minor issues to make sure your orders keep getting executed.

You can follow the development here: https://github.com/tomholub/coinbaseorders

It's free and will remain free, donation based. You can help here: http://coinbaseorders.com/homepage/donate

It's great actually, for those of us who were sleeping last November, because now is the chance to slowly buy in as the price goes down.

I'm buying, more than I should, but not on Mt. Gox, I love myself too much to do that.

I'm all or nothing.

Unless I urgently need cash in USD and the price is 1/10 of what I bought it for. Oh shit!

Not really. The app asks for permissions to buy and sell BTC. That's it.

The access tokens are stored encrypted.

Even if I decrypted them and put them publicly online, attacker would still need another key stored elsewhere to use the tokens.

The only risk is that I will go crazy one day and start buying and selling coins on your account for fun.

You will be fine as long as daily purchases are under $50k USD.

I'll post it here one more time, so that you folks can also have sound sleep tonight.

https://github.com/tomholub/coinbaseorders run it on your own hosting if you wish :-)

A bunch of people got below $700 coins this evening. Anyone else joining the club?

I love getting emails like this one:

tom@coinbaseorders.com - You just bought Bitcoin using limit order on Coinbase!

I and a bunch of other smart folks had our orders in place, and were pleased to see a notification that we got yet another cheap coin :-)

For Coinbase users - http://coinbaseorders.com/

awesome!

I wish everyone great luck collecting cheap coins :-)

My $787 order just got hit this night, so I happily added 1 BTC while asleep :-)
