We are hiring full-time software engineers for a stealth-mode Bitcoin technology startup that is highly disruptive, recently-launched, fully seed round funded with investors already lined up for a multi-million dollar Series A, and has multi-billion dollar exit potential. Compensation can be cash and/or equity. On the Ruby (webapp) side, you can expect to use Rails 4, Sidekiq, Redis, MySQL, Haml, Sass, jQuery, Memcached, and Git. We host everything on an internally managed server stack on Amazon EC2 and Amazon RDS. We also have Python web applications running as well. For full description or to apply. Please forward around to your friends also so we can build Bitcoin faster. Thanks!

Just spreading the good Bitcoin word and in this case helped a couple freediver videographers get their Bitcoin wallets all setup and learn how to use them. Then we got a donation address added to one of their YouTube videos. If they raise 1 BTC in donations then they will make a bloopers video. With some more donations then they will be able to make some awesome underwater videos focused on Bitcoin. So please watch the Emotional Freediving Video and donate if you think it is a good project. I also bet they would do some work for bitcoins if anyone wants it done.

Looks like a reposting of Frank Shostak's Mises Institute article. The really funny part though is in Mr. Shostak's bio. Some sneaky ghost sure has a sense of humor

New article on Bitcoin Magazine about why Bitcoin is just getting started. Could use some Reddit power. At the time of his [Roger Ver's] bet gold was trading at $1,664.25, silver at $41.62 the S&P 500 at $1,200 and bitcoins at $9.26. Currently gold is trading at $1,580.70, silver at $27.12, S&P 500 at $1,553 and bitcoins at $160.00. So, only the S&P has outperformed the USD with a 29.4% return compared to bitcoin’s 1,633% return or 55.5x the S&P 500′s return. ... The bottom line: there are a ton of funds flowing into Bitcoin. And nothing could be more exciting for the bitcoin price than a feeding frenzy of well capitalized financial sharks in a market as tight as Bitcoin who then have a financial incentive to build out the infrastructure that will enable greater adoption and network effects. ... To maximize your profits from this long-term secular crypto-currency bull market you merely need to

When bitcoins were about $30 on 23 Feb 2013 RunToGold proprietor Trace Mayer of gave this interview published 7 March 2013 where he said: No, I do not think we are looking at an unsustainable parabolic move. In fact, I think that Bitcoin might be undervalued today relative to where it was 3-4 months ago. And that is based on the fundamentals of the Bitcoin market. So ironically or paradoxically even though the price has gone up Bitcoin has gotten cheaper. Enjoy the bull leg and make these Wall Streeters, who are now taking multi-million dollar positions, pay dearly for any bitcoins!

From Financial Survival Network: Trace Mayer of RunToGold.com and Kenton Ralph Toews of Sprott Global joined us to discuss what’s going on in the world of BitCoin. While BitCoin itself may not be the final answer to the monetary system’s woes, it certainly has a number of advantages that conventional currencies don’t possess. It is impossible to confiscate, to censor and it has never been compromised. It’s open source and the government doesn’t know what to do about it. Whether it will stay a store of value, no one can be certain of. However, it’s value vis-a-vis all fiat currencies has skyrocketed. Where it’s heading is anyone’s guess. One thing is certain, BitCoin and it’s successors will become an essential part of the economic system.

Trace Mayer is scheduled for an interview focusing on Bitcoin on BBC Newsnight on 26 March 2013 at 10:30pm London time (6:30EST; 3:30pm PST). Any help with recording, etc. would be appreciated. NOTE: The full 9:20 segment is available. It followed a rather hair raising piece on Cyprus and potential capital controls. Added some background information at Bitcoin Magazine.

From RunToGold: Meanwhile, due to last minute changes and because I would already be in Europe and thanks to Chalie Shrem, CEO of BitInstant, I had the opportunity to give an hour long objective presentation on Bitcoin to a group of significant players in the payments space including members of the Federal Reserve, Bundesbank and major banks or other service providers from the US, Europe and other parts around the globe.
...
And greater confidence for VCs means higher Bitcoin prices. So where should the next target be? Well, given the fundamental state of the space as it currently is along with current growth rates therefore I think a fair value price for bitcoins is around 3-7 bitcoins per ounce of gold. It will be fun to watch the price melt-up to that over the short to medium term so get out the popcorn to watch this rocket.
