I am buying BTC and hold them and even forget about them and in 4 or 5 years will look back and see what happened to them.

What do you think about this strategy?

How much do you think each BTC will cost in 5 years?

I will try to buy at least 20 or 40 BTC

Will I be rich in 5 years?

Suuuuuuure, and I'm buying your bs. 20 btc for 5 years, lol. So many threads like this popping up everywhere. If you will buy then show us some receipt later, mkay? (transaction id will be fine)

Lets look in the past of Microsoft and Windows. As everyone notices eveery second windows is not accepted by ppl.

Win 95 not so god
Win 98  very nice windows, not so much difference in look
Win 2000  crap
Win XP i dont have to say anything
Win Vista crap pure crap
Win 7 dont have to say anything
and again
Win 8 and againd very large percent of PC users says it is crap, but i dont aggree

I'm actually writing from win 2000 now and I must say it was good for it's time. Quite stable, if you count out hive/registry overflow bug, which was never fixed and can kill your system regularly if you are unprepared. Also you forgot windows ME which was utter crap.

I made like 7 prototypes so far. But the one I've got going now is modular. So I can create the basic gameplay and setting and later add gameplay/art/animation/sounds etc how I feel like it. Doing both the programming and art is tricky, but also a lot of fun.
I might want to team up at some point, but for now I want to see how far I can push this myself! Thanks for the offer though! ^^

The target platform at this point is uncertain. I was developing for mobile, but now it seems to go towards the console direction. Well see! Smiley




Console is the ultimate option for an artist, your ambitions are good. Depending on the choice you will have to sign up (sometimes purchase) for a dev kit, follow some strict guidelines, but the exposure is well worth it. Or you can find a local publisher to supply that to you for a likely ~50-60% profit, but it would be ok for a first game I guess.

Website has great interface but cashing this giveaway is one in a million chance with 0.005 btc reward with many hours wasted.   Angry

Look's like it's not enough to stop sheeple from trying. It's like those seagulls from children cartoon Finding Nemo. "Mine Mine Mine , Me Me Me, Give Give".

i hopeit falls down to 300 at least, gives me time to breathe.

This grow lately is too intimidating, I know, YOLO and that shit, but man, money is not so easy to com,e by these days.

I'm so goddamn tired of struggling for every penny.

Sometimes at night I think it would be much easier to take a baseball bat and go for a walk, instead of grinding between the wheels for another week.

Well, I got the general opiion, thanks everyone.

Although I still think idea of pooled bruteforcing service (of things other than BTC wallets) is a good one.

Locking it up.

I'm amazed so many people here run Windows. You'd think crypto enthousiasts are all *nix-people.

Even when u are very anal about your security, run on some heavily modded linux distro, watching text porn in terminal, at times you will probably need some shit done, let's say in adobe photoshop. Good luck with that on linux. So huzzah for simplicity and software availability. Or let's say you bought some cheap ass device with no drivers for it in linux. Countless possibilities.

Fuck this social media bullshit!


It is actually becoming pretty irritating the way people are trying to shove 'social' networking down my throat when a lot of the time the reason you go on a computer is exactly to avoid people ffs, stuff like rockstar social club and steam etc. is something I don't get particularly as well because a lot of singleplayer games are now pestering you to go and pester other friends while they're playing, I always turn off the social features now because it just means you end up getting spammed while you're playing.

South Park had a great episode on this. You have 0 friends

I hear you about singleplayer and other games, it's annoying as hell, and every company has to have it's own version of instant messaging and voice messaging and other stuff. uPlay from Ubisoft, that other turd system which is needed to play battlefield from EA and so on.
Steam is kinda ok I guess, they are well established in that field, but I hate it and rarely install it (once a year for less than a month)

Ice dice sucks donkey balls, and I would not try this shit out, because I tend to read comments in the thread before doing something dumb.

but the sheeple just go on with GIMMEE GIMMEEEEE GIMMEEEEEE

like in that xrp thread that's FINALLY dead

Maybe a brute for hire pool then? For multipurpose queries. Buyer inserts a certain amount of BTC to pay for solving, and workers start chipping away.

What part of "1461501637330902918203684832716283019655932542976 possibilities" yo dont understand?

 Undecided

Read closely, I did not write about brute-forcing WALLETS in that post

Then why has this never happened in the history of man kind?

No one has died from cannabis, ever.

Now the laws around cannabis, that's a different story.

What about those who did some stupid stuff under the influence?

Also this, lol Cheesy No one has died from cannabis, ever.

1116  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can anyone post an exhaustive list of bad things Bitcoin is doing to this world? on: November 13, 2013, 01:23:39 PM
The worst use of Bitcoin that is happening today is sell of arms & ammunitions. There were (maybe are) some sellers on Silk Road that dealed in this

They would have to do it under the radar, as Silk Road banned arms trade.

And people being able to effectively defend themselves, despite pro-criminal safety government infringements of the most important human right, is not the worst use of bitcoin.

Say what? I smell hypocrisy. No guns but tons of heroin? Drugs kill as good as guns do. I could never imagine that silkroad would ban something, lol. Proves that I know nothing.
1117  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Pooled BRUTFORCING of wallets on: November 13, 2013, 01:16:29 PM
so, basically what you are suggesting is organized theft.

kinda, but not really.

If you want to minimize the damage - this should get more attention which will probably warn wallet owners. Also everything would be logged and possible to view by everyone.

Finding a lost wallet with 200 BTC in it surely would be a good thing.

Window 7 forever..

Windows 7 is the best OS Microsoft has done in recent years in my opinion.

8 is better, it's just that 7 was so "groundbreakingly solid" helping restore faith in Microsoft after horrible Vista.
And a huge wave of FUD (almost like a paid job) concerning metro UI above everything sure did not help.
It was so annoying to see tons of comments from peopl who did not even try that thing out yet.


Im not paid, I dont like the store concept apple and android have integrated as well. Windows 8 is big fail in my opinion


lol ghave u tried win 8?!?!  It uses less resources than XP in my oppinion. Only thing i dont like is Metro but you can add a normal start button

Window 8 is faster but I can't find the start button Smiley

Yeah, problem is that it's not in open beta yet.

Could've sworn they will open beta at blizzcon.

This sucks.

The idea goes like this:

A pool similar to your mining pools, it uses your free cpu time to bruteforce some wallet. There are 2 modes, dictionary and string search. People mining are submitting shares as in your usual mining. When the password is cracked people get percentage paid out according to their shares submitted and the mode they were using. If password was found by dictionary search - then dictionary using miners will benefit and vice versa.

Now the wallets for bruteforcing are not chosen randomly. The main criteria is the age/ACTIVITY of a wallet, and the second criteria is the amount of BTC in it.

For example we should try to brute a most INACTIVE wallet (with a possibility that it's a forgotten wallet, which would be great). Let's say that we start from 6 months old wallets. If you are concerned that someone will brute your address - you should move some dust from your wallet, time to time. Of course we should target the biggest wallets amongst those inactive, but that's up for debate, cause most lost wallets have very little in them. It's all about profitability of that spent cpu time.

Also there should be some threshold, if the password was not cracked for X work/time then it should lose priority and be set away for a different time.


I would not start this poll, and already made up this pool if I had the technical capabilities. Instead I can only dream about it here. What are your thoughts, guys? Don't say to me that it was discussed before I've searched previous to posting.
