701  Other / Off-topic / Why do you believe Satoshi Nakamoto... on: July 03, 2012, 01:54:59 AM
Safely assuming that Satoshi Nakamoto is a pseudonym, why do you believe he (also, safely assuming, albeit I have another theory) chose that one as his moniker?

The title of this thread has been changed to "Steal this movie idea!" and starting with post(s) 18/19 discusses this not-so-abstract brain fart.

I just viewed a second "short" of which this well known actor starred in.

If there were to be a short film, or full-length, for that matter, produced, I believe this actor would portray Satoshi Nakamoto perfectly.

Whom am I thinking of? (I will reply honestly)

If you're not sure of what is i4t or how to use it, search the term on this forum, whereupon seeing how it was first used, it will become quite obvious how to continue incorporating it every chance possible.

i4t stands for "is for theymos" and relates to this thread.

Again, although I was the first to use i4t in a post (penned prior to this one), my hope is seeing others use it as well.

Merci. (i4t)

710  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Interviews for Bitcoin Magazine on: June 23, 2012, 03:58:01 PM
This thread will garner individual names for prospects we would like to see interviewed for inclusion in subsequent Bitcoin Magazine issues.

To get the ball a rollin', I'll start and maintain a list so that Matthew, et al., could have a handy place to view the notables. The names will be linked to some webpage to get the editor's created juices a flowin'. As time goes on, I may reshuffle the list, having names gravitate to the top if intense interest ensues.

Needless to say, any suggested names should be connected with BTCitcoin in some way or fashion but, of course, cryptographist may also be considered. I feel that including Satoshi Nakamoto to the list would serve no real world purpose. I hope you understand.


What name would you like to see on the list?

Feel free to provide me better links for the above names, sans theymos's.

Quote
Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years in the world with very little to distress or vex her.

The above quote is the first paragraph of Emma, by Jane Austen, a novel first published in 1815.

The object of this thread is to have you change ONLY one (1) word (bold it) and still have the paragraph remain grammatically correct.

The goal is to see how the paragraph reads after hopefully a 100+ changes.

If nobody minds, I'll start.

...why I do what I do.

I just finished reading the linked article, and opt to quote one of the last paragraphs. It seems to sum up quite nicely of why I do what I sometimes do here on BitcoinTalk. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/so-long-suckers-im-leaving-wall-street-2012-06-19

Quote
Pay attention: Following the scandals, the controversies and the issues on Wall Street can be infuriating, boring and discouraging. Working to change the system may seem impossible. But if you’ve read this far, you obviously are at least curious. Or a glutton for punishment. You have what it takes.

I try not to harm anybody during my tough questionings, some of which may even be considered stupid once I don my 20-20 shades, but if and when I do (and have), I'm man enough to back-pedal my Flying Pigeon and apologize.

To quote Captain Stubby (or was it Charles Homer Bill?), "Thanks for listening".

716  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoinica's "Hot Wallet" loaded hours prior to the heist? on: June 18, 2012, 06:37:10 AM
I'm no expert on "hot wallets" or "cold wallets", but it seems strange to me that a majority of the transactions that funded Bitcoinica's "Hot Wallet" which was stolen, was transferred to said wallet only hours prior to the heist. The only main exceptions are four large transactions on the 9th, the time frame of which genjix was in Germany.

0i!

I'm in Berlin for a while. I'm doing a Bitcoin intro at c-base. If you want to do a talk, then email me (genjix@riseup.net) and I'll add you to the schedule.

This is the first we have heard of this attack (on the forums just now). zhoutong did not even tell us yet. We were gradually assuming control of Bitcoinica over the last weeks by setting up a new platform.

There shouldn't even be that much money in the live wallet. I'm waiting to get more information before saying more though. This is kind of ridiculous considering that already money was lost on Linode. The big question going through my head is why was that much money being stored on a Rackspace server.

I am angry that our name is being dragged through the mud for something we had no part in.

We have over 80% of our Bitcoins in offline wallets at the moment before the attack. We had to keep a large balance because the withdrawals are huge!

The time zone in Germany was mid-afternoon when the hack occurred. ZT claims genjix was asleep. Exactly what were the other principle's local times when the hack occured?

Please don't blame genjix. It's definitely not his fault.

He's not in our mailing list so it couldn't be him.

Well, shit just happens and it's not anyone's fault or incompetence here. I'm the only guy awake when the incident happens.

After we're done discussing this issue, I'll have an even better question(s) waiting in the queue.

Hopefully a lively discussion, whether pro, con or indifferent, will ensue.

720  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Sending Encrypted Text Messages via BlockChain on: June 13, 2012, 05:14:18 PM
I thought of this last night, and not sure if this approached has been discussed before. The following is an example of how a rogue entity could send encrypted text messages back and forth to one another, and still keep the coins between themselves.

The above that I devised is based on the simplest code readily available, but a more complex coding system, with each person having the key, can create a more complex one that would be a hell of a lot harder to crack. And it could all be done in the open for all to see.

In fact, a simple program could be built to create the sums on demand, ready to be hand-sent one-by-one or automatically, not all at once, but at a rate as if a human were inputting the amounts.

I started this post to bring awareness that this option exist and should be deeply considered.

Can you crack the code above?
