2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Thanking the hacker that stole my ETH yesterday on: May 12, 2016, 11:29:59 AM
I just want to thank the asshole hacker that stole my shitty little amount of 114 ETH yesterday.  I can see you moved them Poloniex.  I hope the you do better with them than me as you felt more entitled to them I did.

The fact that Poloniex doesn't seem to give a shit that the hack originated from their site is also enough to make me sick.  Yes I am ranting and whining because I am just a little guy trying to get by, I am no threat, yet some scumbag that has nothing better to do but prey on the little guy who probably didn't have his security as tight as it should be steals my wimpy stash. This sad excuse for a person, has actually hurt my financial situation a lot more then if he had taken from some whale.

If anyone would know of anything that i can do to help stop this from happening to others I would like to know.  I don't have anything I can offer for a reward for return of my measly amount of coins lost except a small portion of them.  Also interest in hearing if this is happening to others lately.

Kicked when down,

Zed
3  Economy / Service Discussion / Bitfunder closing questions on: November 18, 2013, 12:50:30 PM
Can anyone point to to a thread or somewhere to find out how to deal my assets on BF that is about to shut down.


This is from the site but makes little sense to me:
Quote
BitFunder users are encouraged to transfer their shares from the BitFunder site to the respective issuer(s) no later than December 1, 2013.

As of December 2, BitFunder will initiate a transfer from the BitFunder site to the respective issuer(s) of any remaining shares held by BitFunder users, and will provide the issuer(s) with the public bitcoin address associated with the user account. After transfer, each user will need to work with the issuer(s) with respect to the future treatment of the shares.
4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / S.BBET-PT and S.DICE-PT on LTC-Global lesson learned? on: April 22, 2013, 06:25:02 PM
Well I bought into these with my LTC back in February when everything looked kinda rosy for them both and LTC was pennies.  That quickly went south about 3 weeks later. Both still show no sign of ever making a comeback.  Since the rise in cryptocurrency prices this has taught my first lesson trading.  I should have gotten out at the first sign of trouble.

What is everyone elses take on the future of these two PTs?  Dump 'em and move on or wait for the second coming? Not whining just curious what other think of these PTs today.

DICE just seems over and done IMO since the price frenzy.  BBET looking back never really was going anywhere.  Those two statements should illicit some flames I bet.
5  Economy / Service Discussion / Mt.Gox's Facebook statement for those who have not seen on: April 21, 2013, 06:38:08 PM
Quote from: Mt.Gox on Facebook
UPDATE: This again appears to be another strong DDos attack. We are working hard to overcome it and will update when possible. It's currently 2am in Japan so please forgive us if our Facebook/Twitter updates are not as quick, though the team is certainly not taking any breaks. We're very much looking forward to implementing a much stronger solution very soon and will make an announcement to that effect once it's in place.

Unacceptable!
6  Bitcoin / Armory / 0.88 not finding bitcoin-qt.exe no matter what. on: April 19, 2013, 12:22:34 PM
OK upgraded to new 88 version on a 64bit Win7 box. Got the alert that my bitcoin client was running and I should shut it down.  I did this hit the retry button, no joy.  I figured out I needed to manually point it to where I installed the BTC client.  I did that as I have don't have it on the root drive.  Left the working dir path blank as it seemed correct.  Still no joy.

I then filled out the working path since this is also not truly on the root drive but linked to another drive.  Still no luck.  I then had to set it back to the old method and restart Armory and we were rolling again.

Just thought you should know.  i am not much more help than this but will do what I can to help figure this out if it wasn't just me doing something wrong.
7  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Can anyone using a 6870 x2 (dual core) give me some mining specs on: April 17, 2013, 10:02:22 AM
Hey folks,

Looking at a 6870 x2 instead of a 7970. Getting a good price on the dual GPU.  The specs for the dual core 6870 aren't really on the comparison page.  Does anyone have experience with them?  Hashing rates, temperatures and fan noise if ya can.

TIA
8  Bitcoin / Armory / Offline wallet balance on: April 11, 2013, 05:36:21 PM
Ok I know this isn't really needed or maybe I have missed something but is there anyway to get your wallet balance to display on your offline computer in a offline config?

Or god forbid I sent my savings somewhere else?
9  Economy / Trading Discussion / Paypal not reversible for Bitcoins on: March 18, 2013, 03:45:14 PM
Just wondering since Paypal considers Bitcoin a virtual good and will not refund your money in the case you don't receive your goods why its so frowned upon to sell with Paypal?

I know this to be fact as I am being screwed by Paypal as we speak.  I assumed with all that is said about Paypal being able to charge back that attempting to buy coins with PayPal should be safe for the buyer and bad for the seller.  That is not the case.

10  Economy / Service Discussion / Mt.Gox Payment system problem on: March 06, 2013, 05:28:26 PM
I was making a payment through the Mt. Gox merchant payment system and ran into a problem.

The way the system works, for the unknowing, is Mt.gox gives you an address to send the payment to for whatever your paying for.  You then have to wait for the payment to confirm and the web page will update when the wallet has received the correct amount of coins and then it will forward you back to the original merchant's page.

Well during the waiting for confirms, which we know can take a while, Chrome decides to choke.  So when I open the browser and go back to the same address there is a new address there waiting for my already 3 time confirmed payment to a different address.

Now, of course, neither the merchant or Mt.Gox can tell me where my coins went after I sent them to the first address.  I can see the transaction on the chain and my coins going off in the oblivion to 2 differerent addresses.  One for a very small amount, like the transaction fee, and the balance going elsewhere.  Then I lose it. 

I am pretty new to this but what should my course of action be?  Mt.Gox support went home from work in the middle of helping it would appear.  Shouldn't they be able to tell me where they sent my BTC?
11  Economy / Service Discussion / Problems with BTC-e deposits and trying to talk to their support on: March 03, 2013, 07:09:10 PM
Anyone else have problems with a deposit going through on BTC-e today? 

I have tried to speak their support about it but from what I can decipher from the broken english is that they are having problems with deposits.

I can not be sure this is the case as communication with support guy/girl is very difficult. I hope in the future they address the problem of communication.
12  Local / Skandinavisk / We need to start a Bitcoin Forbund in Denmark on: March 02, 2013, 09:36:21 AM
Sorry for the English again folks but I write dansk very poorly.

I am an American living in Denmark for the last 18 years.  I see Bitcoin as poised to make a very big change to the way people think about money.  I want to spread that word in Denmark. 

There is a forbund or group for eveything in DK. Is there anyone besides me that would be interested in helping getting this up and running.

I hope there is some interest.
13  Economy / Gambling / Anyone else still waiting for payout on BFL March 1st bet with Bitbet? on: March 01, 2013, 10:46:51 AM
Not stressing here or anything but is anyone else still waiting like the subject says?

The bet changed to resolved about an hour ago but I have yet to receive payout.  I have the used the same wallet for previous bets and they are paid at the time of being resolved.

I realize this was a big bet so that's why I am asking if there is just a delay.

MOD: sorry can you move this to Games and rounds.
14  Local / Skandinavisk / Any Danish Bitcoin groups, forums or such on: February 21, 2013, 08:28:27 PM
Hello,

I am American living DK and was just wondering if there are any BTC groups or meeting places anything like that.  I read Danish fine just suck at writing it.

TIA

15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / LTC NVC mining question on: February 21, 2013, 11:35:59 AM
Ok being the complete newb that I am to the whole mining thing something has me confused.

From what I understand right now, mining LTC and NVC should yield about the same amount of coins at the same hashing rate.

But when I mine LTC I am making over 200x more than NVC.  Same set up but different pools.  I can't see how the pool can make that much difference.  I have tried 2 NVC pools same result.
16  Economy / Gambling / The unprofessional look to sites on: February 18, 2013, 08:26:43 AM
I am not trying to start a sh** storm here I just am wondering what a lot of these sites see as a long term goal.

I have to say the majority of sites for BTC gambling (and many other things for that matter) look very unprofessional and like Joe Ijustwantyourmoney coded them.  Interfaces from the 80s and some non existent IMO. Even S.Dice interface sucks for the average Joe, once again IMO. They say they are upgrading though.  Bitmillions had made a nice attempt and very nice site.  Placing a bet is still a huge PITA.

For the usual BTC nerd this may not be problem but to actually expand your own brand and the BTC brand these types of sites do very little and are probably more of a detriment to the BTC brand.

Yes for the most part I am just talking about aesthetics of a site but this is also the first impression people get of a site. If it looks unprofessional I know I am reluctant to play there and usually don't. If it looks bad what about the code underneath, scary.

So my question is what can the long term goal of these sites be?  I have a couple ideas that I would like to start but I am very reluctant to put out a product just to be first to market but it looks and operates like crap and would never get past these forums for users. 

I admit my business experience is limited but with a advertising and graphics background I just don't see how these places can have a future?  Are you all just trying to get out the door and build upon that?  Is that a good business model?

Once again not trying to start anything and I have not bad mouthed any sites in particular.  I would just like hear your thoughts.

17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / NVC killed BTC-E and Coinotron? on: February 14, 2013, 02:39:07 PM
Site down for over an hour?  DDoS attacks?

I didn't do it!
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / How to mine ixcoin, i0coin, devcoin and such for the idiot on: February 12, 2013, 12:37:54 PM
Hello people,

I am pretty new to the whole BTC thing so mining it is very intriguing.  I am interested in know how to mine some of these new coins, not so much for the coins but just for the knowledge of how it works from the start.

I seem to have wallets set up for ixcoin, i0coin, and devcoin but my knowledge of mining would now mean I would connect to a pool.  Since most of these don't have a pool but I can see they have blockchains how do i go about them?

TIA
