Thanks for the positive feedback deggen!
Stop loss orders are definitely something we are considering in the future. However, having the responsibility to add stop loss orders on our servers opens us up to liability if the orders don't execute correctly. Adding Bitfinex would allow us to support stop loss orders since they have it in their API.
Cheers,
Dan

Ya we've gotten some similar feedback regarding how to set your gate. It's something we need to reconsider with Bitcoin at $1000.

Glad you brought this up Jeff. I think this is a brilliant step forward to having Bitcoin transactions survive despite the internet being shut down. I propose utilizing the existing amateur radio frequencies to propagate Blockchain transactions. Satellites, in conjunction with converted wireless routers (HSMM-MESH), can enable a cheaply configured network that can operate with minimal electricity and no internet connection. These transaction terminals can also be configured to have Bluetooth low energy attachments that would allow it to interface with mobile devices.
Amateur Radio Rules
Under Title 47- Part 97 of the FCC amateur radio services, I believe transmitting Blockchain transmission is a good use of the amateur radio frequencies. 97.1 Basis and purpose "(e) Continuation and extension of the amateur's unique ability to enhance international goodwill." And I don't see it violating any prohibited transmissions, this one in particular:
97.113 Prohibited transmissions "(2) Communications for hire or for material compensation, direct or indirect, paid or promised, except as otherwise provided in these rules" I believe Blockchain transmissions are not classified as material compensation, but rather a ledger update, or an information bulletin update. If the Blockchain protocol cannot be broadcast legally under Part 97, I recommend taking the concept in a direction that would comply with Part 15 rules.
Firmware
One popular way to access amateur only frequencies is to modify an off-the-shelf access point with custom firmware. This custom firmware is freely available on the Internet from projects such as DD-WRT and OpenWrt. The most popular piece of hardware that is modified is the Linksys WRT54GL because of the widespread availability of both the hardware and third party firmware.
Current Implementation
HSMM-MESH is meant to be the high speed digital progression of existing Amateur Radio practices and used only by licensed Amateur Radio operators. It also is suitable for permanent installation, providing high speed digital Amateur Radio communications over a region with line-of-sight RF access to at least one of the participating nodes. It is a fully self-sufficient network and does not require any other infrastructure or resources to be in place for its participating nodes to be able to communicate with each other.
Broadband-Hamnet is the self configuring ham network. Hams have transferred IP data by radio for ages. Mesh nodes were originally consumer wireless routers but changed function when the firmware was changed. Mesh nodes are self discovering, self configuring, self advertising and fault tolerant. Mesh nodes are small, portable, low-power and inexpensive. They are easily battery powered. Mesh nodes can easily have a range of 10 miles or more using stock power and gain antennas if you have true line of sight. Mesh nodes on channels 1-6 use FCC part 97 rules instead of part 15. This allows big antennas, more power, other changes. Data is data. It can be IP Video, VOIP, LAN traffic between computers, clients to a web server/FTP/NAS/printer, keyboard chat, hop to the Internet, etc
Frequencies
802.11a
802.11b
802.11g
802.11n
Identification
As with any amateur radio mode stations must identify at least once every 10 minutes. One acceptable method for doing so is to transmit one’s call sign inside an ICMP echo request (commonly known as a ping). If the access point is set to "master" then the user’s call sign may be set as the "SSID" and therefore will be transmitted at regular intervals.
It is also possible to use a DDNS "push" request to automatically send an amateur callsign in plain text (ASCII) every 10 minutes. This requires that a computers hostname be set to the callsign of the amateur operator and that the DHCP servers lease time be set to less than or equal to 10 minutes. With this method implemented the computer will send a DNS "push" request that includes the local computers hostname every time the DHCP lease is renewed. This method is supported by all modern operating systems including but not limited to Windows, Mac OS X, BSD, and Linux. 802.11 hardware may transmit and receive the entire time it is powered on even if the user is not sending data.
Cheers,
Dan

Its wordpress hosted. And unfortunately I can't go below at least 1 BTC. This is one of the most epic domain names you could ask for.

You mean the hundreds of people complaining all in the Service Discussion thread over the last month?
