Think we'll see a lot more of this from the big law firms, auditors and similar service providers as they try to get up to speed.

8  Other / Off-topic / Steam machine / gaming PC on: October 03, 2014, 02:51:59 PM
Has anyone seen this form factor before?

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jetpack/g-pack-the-high-performance-stealth-gaming-machine

Not the cheapest - and Kickstarter doesn't take bitcoins - but I'm thinking of getting one to attach to the back of my main TV.

Any other interesting form factors out there?  Are Steam machines a thing yet?  (I'll be moving over from Xbox, so it's all new to me.)
9  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / BTC engagement ring? on: July 30, 2014, 11:43:58 AM
Who is responsible for this?

Awesome job! Grin


Love some of the features:

Value

You and your friends won't need a jeweler to tell you exactly how much this ring is worth.

Decoupling Design

Beautiful rings come and go with the times but the backing of these rings should not. The BTC ring can be reprinted to keep up with the latest styles.

Replacability

Just because something has value doesn't mean that all should be lost when the physical ring is misplaced. The real value of the BTC ring lies in the Blockchain.

Re-upping

As salaries increase, you can upgrade the BTC ring without going to the jeweler.

Really disappointed in this one.  Big Engadget fan but so much misinformation in this article. Angry

13  Bitcoin / Press / [2014-03-13] Is UCC Article 9 Going to Kill the Use of Bitcoin by US Businesses? on: March 13, 2014, 02:53:27 PM
Any US lawyers want to chime in?

http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2014/03/ucc-article-9-going-kill-us-bitcoin-us-businesses.html

In short, bitcoins may not currently fall within the definition of "money" for the purposes are Art 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, being a "medium of exchange currently authorized or adopted by a domestic or foreign government" (UCC § 1-201(b)(24)).

The upshot:

If anyone takes Bitcoins from a business that has a blanket lien (and you as someone dealing with that business won't know the state of their finances) and that business gets in trouble, the bank can go after any current holder of Bitcoins that have passed through that business' accounts
Absurd result, obviously.

15  Bitcoin / Legal / How can I help? (UK) on: February 05, 2014, 11:09:39 AM
In short, I've become very interested in Bitcoin and its enormous potential. I am a lawyer in the UK and I would like to get involved and provide assistance where I can (i.e. dedicate some of my spare time to research and providing advice on a pro bono basis).

Are there any groups in the UK I should contact (Bitcoin Foundation, for example, has some UK based members but no UK chapter as far as I am aware) or any other avenues I should be looking at?
16  Other / Meta / Best Android browser for viewing bitcointalk? on: January 28, 2014, 05:10:17 PM
I've tried a few and all but Opera mini (which has its own issues) stuggle with this forum. Specifically, whenever I view a thread, random posts will appear in super small text. Why is that?

I haven't managed to find any settings that fix this.

(I'm using a Galaxy Note 3, btw.)
17  Bitcoin / Press / [2014-01-21] CNN: Bitcoin is not just digital currency. It's Napster for finance on: January 21, 2014, 04:45:19 PM

In the next year, Bitcoin will start its transformation from a mere currency into an entire open-source, decentralized exchange for everything from futures contracts to car rentals.
18  Bitcoin / Electrum / Transaction history says "unverified" and "-1 confirmation"? on: January 12, 2014, 02:40:58 PM
Sure I read about this already but I can't find the thread.

I set up an offline wallet on a Raspberry Pi - super easy, so far so good - and a read only copy on my online PC.

I sent coins to the offline wallet which, according to blockchain.info, went find (13 confirms and counting). However, in the Electrum client (online PC), the same transaction is reported as "unverified" with "-1 confirmation".

Is that normal / a bug?
