Hey all,

I'm considering selling my Bitcoin Magazine #1 here which I bought off the shelf in a bookstore back in the day. Trying to decide if I should have it graded before posting. Looking at the 10 point scale, I'm guessing it would come in around 7-8?

I've enjoyed reading it and wouldn't want to seal it up because then it cannot be enjoyed again without opening the seal and thus making the grade useless?

Any thoughts? Interest?

Hello Bitcoin community. I am pre-launching a Korean shopping agent service, “Koreanbuddy.” http://Koreanbuddy.com
The shopper tells us what they want and pays us directly, we go out and buy the products ans ship them to the shopper. Want something from Korea?
And as your KoreanBuddy I'm offering "no fees" on your first order! And we take Bitcoin of course.


Why use KoreanBuddy?
Korean sites have great deals and product selection but are extremely difficult to use as a foreigner, trust me I’m starting this service because of personal experience.
Now you don’t have to be frustrated, only happy.
You can get help from the many shopping guides on our site which give step-by-step instructions on how to find products on various popular sites here in Korea. If someone here wants us to create a shopping guide on another website, just ask.
Anyone can message us here or through the messenger on koreanbuddy.com and we will get back to you ASAP, remember that we are on Korean time though
Also, if you like making your own shopping lists you can upload your own excel file on the site or just email it to us

How do you get the products?
If you want the product quickly 3-5 days? Then EMS (express). If you want to save money and can wait 10-14 days, then regular Korean Post. You can checkout the FAQ section for more.

How much will it cost you?
For your first order it’s free!
Later on 10% if you provide the URL of the items you want, and 20% if you don’t have a URL or it’s an in-store purchase.
If you pay in bitcoin you get 50% off on fees. So 5% with URL 10% without.

About us
I am a Canadian who has been living in Korea for 4 years. I am an organizer of the Seoul Bitcoin Meetup and I write those monthly meetup growth reports. My partner is Korean and we both are bitcoiners.

Please send any comments and suggestions.
Thanks!

Some of my friends have launched their android app:
Hi guys,

For the past 7 months we have been developing Bitholla an android app which started at the Seoul Bitcoin Meetup. A bunch of us wanted to create something useful for our meetup.

The problem we found when using bitcoins was paying each other back after a night out. Copy and pasting addresses & scanning QR codes over and over again wasted time.

We decided to solve this by having a local list ordered by proximity where your user profile and bitcoin address are one. A use case we've found the app helpful was paying people on the spot at a restaurant. Another is finding new people and places to use your bitcoins near you.

After some internal testing, mostly with the help of the Seoul Bitcoin Meetup we were able to refine the app and have decided to continue developing it. We're looking for testing and feedback from the bitcoin community which would be appreciated.

We have more plans for the app, one being better merchant and customer interaction. If you want to find out more about us you can check out our site.

Here are Bitholla's current features:

Sending, receiving and requesting bitcoin payments
Attach messages to transactions
Find people near you on the local list
Chat to anyone
Receive notifications for all interactions
Find meetups on our map
Find places to spend bitcoin on our map
Locate bitcoin ATMs
Reveal your location on the map
Customize your profile with a picture and status
Use any bitcoin wallet
Create a personal contact list
Personalized payment UI

We hope that the bitcoin community finds this app as useful as we have.

Thanks,

Bitholla Team

Bitcoin Private Key - Flipping a Coin 256 Times

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieHoQ4sGuEY

Posted this up on Youtube yesterday.  <<<<Disclaimer>>>> I didn't intend this to be a secure way to generate a private address.  It is not secure to save a private address in text format on your computer or anywhere else.  Also plugging numbers into online calculators is not secure.

This is just for fun. Send in some funds or steal them, whatever you like.

지난 2월 28일 한국 비트코인 센터가 이태원에 문을 열었습니다. 이날 개관식에는 한국 비트코인 동호회 회원 40여 명과 언론인 등이 참석해 축하 행사를 가졌습니다.

비트코인 센터는 벤처회사 디지털시너'의 공동창업자들이 소유하고 운영하고 있습니다. 디지털시너지는 비트코인을 한국에 소개하고 비트코인 산업을 진흥시키려는 목적으로 설립된 기업으로, 실제로 눈에 보이는 비트코인 관련 장비와 건물을 세우는 것이 이 회사의 핵심 전략입니다.
 
'디지털 시너지' 공동창업자 테리 장 씨는 왜 한국에서 비트코인 센터가 필요하냐는 질문에 대해 이렇게 답했습니다.  "한국에서 비트코인이 더 확산하려면 대중의 인식을 바꿀 필요가 있습니다. 현재 한국에서 비트코인은 잘해야 고위험 투자 상품이며 나쁘게는 뭔가 수상한 사기인 것처럼 인식되고 있습니다. 실은 비트코인이 잠재적 주류 화폐이자 필수불가결한 금융 기술 도구라는 점을 알려야 합니다. 이메일처럼 유용한 것으로 말입니다. 이런 비트코인의 오해를 불식시키려면, 어떤 물리적이고 시각적인 장치에 의해 비트코인 상품이 보이는 것이 필요하다고 저와 제 파트너는 믿습니다.

비트코인 센터는 주한 외국인 공동체의 중심지인 이태원에 자리잡고 있습니다. 이 곳은 유행을 선도하는 다국적 레스토랑, 외국인이 운영하는 바, 관광객을 위한 노점상, 구멍가게식 환전소, 현지식 케밥 가게, 24시간 커피숍 그리고 웨스턴 유니언 등이 어우러져 풍경을 이루는 곳입니다.

한국 비트코인센터는 비트코인 정보 중심지이자, 각종 동호회 모임 장소, 협력 작업 공간 등으로 쓰이고 있습니다. 하지만 비트코인센터가 초점을 맞추는 부분은 교육으로, 비트코인과 관련한 다양한 주제에 대해 워크숍을 열거나 일상적인 기초 강좌를 제공하는 것이 목적입니다.

디지털 시너지의 공동창업자인 나세용 씨는 "교육은 비트코인 확산에 중요한 열쇠입니다. 사람을 만나고 토론하는 공통의 장소를 가지는 것은 비트코인 개발자와 사용자 모두에게 큰 기회를 제공할 것입니다. 비트코인 센터는 한국에서 비트코인과 관련한 모든 분야의 씽크탱크가 될 수 있습니다"라고 말했습니다.

한국 비트코인센터는 출금과 입금을 동시에 할 수 있는 ATM기를 설치하고 있습니다. 이 기계를 통해 사람들은 비트코인을 온라인으로 거래하고, 송금할 수 있습니다. 또 한국인이 아니라는 이유로 한국 쇼핑몰 사이트에서 물건을 살 수 없었던 주한 외국인이 한국 사이트에서 물건을 살 수 있게 해 줄 것입니다.

나아가, 비트코인 센터 운영진은 이태원 거리 상인들이 비트코인을 받도록 유도함으로써 이태원을 비트코인 생태계로 바꾸려는 꿈을 가지고 있습니다. 이태원 상인들에게 POS앱이 탑재된 안드로이드 기계를 무료로 제공하면 상인들은 거래 수수료가 없다는 인센티브를 누리게 되어 비트코인을 받을 것입니다.

비트코인 센터는 주중에는 아침 10부터 밤 10까지, 토요일에는 낮 12시부터 밤 8시까지 운영됩니다. 일요일에는 예약된 회원에게만 문을 엽니다. 미래에는 24시간 운영할 계획입니다

Hey guys,

We have a very up to date group here in Seoul always talking about the latest projects in Bitcoin.

One of our members started a Lighthouse fundraising campaign just to test out the program.  It looks really cool.

1.  Download the lighthouse app here https://www.vinumeris.com/lighthouse

2.  Then download our project here: goo.gl/lqr4RN  

3.  Import the file and send us 50 cents.  We are only trying to raise $20 for fun.  

The money is only sent if we meet our goal.

Peace.

Our group, Seoul Bitcoin attended the Inside Bitcoins conference this past weekend in Seoul, South Korea.
We had around 30 people there from the local meetup, and the whole weekend was quite a success.
The link below takes you to their blog where they posted all the photos.

One key to the success of the conference was the ticket pricing.  There were the usual $300+ full conference passes available, but they did a really smart thing and offered passes to the trade show floor only (no access to the conference room where the presentations were held) for 7 dollars.  That way people who could not afford 300 dollars, which is most people, and those who had just a little interest in bitcoin could come, walk around, and meet all the companies and exhibitors etc.

For just 7 dollars.

Hey Guys, a friend of mine here in Seoul build a website www.binary-io.com It is a binary betting site at the moment  You bet if the price of btc on Bitstamp will be higher or lower in 24 hours.  Bets can be made within a 4 hour window and then a new bet begins.  
Everything is automated with time lock transactions used to return the money after the 24 hours if no one bids against you or the site disappears for some reason.  

Questions comments welcomed.  

The site is live but just launched recently to the public.

Peace.

Hey guys, I don't have a programming background so I'm hoping someone will help me out and get some btc for it. Today someone in our group chat sent btc to 17QeC46aGMk8HuDenQAjRmnmYZwzzd1XnM he said anyone can have it and the private key is SeoulBitcoinMeet all one word.  So I am passing it along and asking for the solution.
Thanks in advance.

Hey guys,

I am starting to develop some presentations for bitcoin users/newbies here in Korea.  This is a draft of a presentation about sending money internationally.  I intend to use this presentation to talk to newbies, English teachers in Korea specifically as that is were I live.

I would like some feedback from people here. 

I will post more presentations as I develop them if I get some constructive feed back. 

Let me know the good and the bad. 

I do think I need more figures with respect to fees charged by different banks receiving one's international wire.

Peace
