But there is a general consensus, and a level of logical application, that there is manipulation going on, and I am just inquiring if it is gox doing it or if it is natural.
We bitcoin users are some of the most trusting, also the most paranoid. among the smartest, yet also the most dumb. Take my words with with a grain of bitcoin.

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Freedom and Responsibility - or: why you FAILED if you lost money in MBC crash

So... now you're gloating that lots of people lost their coins and you still have them? Do you feel proud? Do you feel lucky? Should we be laughing if you fail the next "test"?
It's already bad enough, there is no need for a zillion topics rubbing it in to them. It has already happened, and the people involved are obviously aware that they made a mistake.
There is no need for rude and unfriendly comments like yours. Can we at least pretend to keep the community a nice place?
Storing your wallet in a safe way (both against theft and loss) is not exactly easy nor user friendly at the moment. Even for the tech-savy it's hard. Please contribute to solving this problem instead of kicking dead horses...

The Federal Reserve should not be allowed to print unlimited amounts of money, but we as citizens grant them the permission to correctify highly volatile markets.
I granted that institution no such permission. But if you did, please answer for the graph shown here, on the record of the Federal Reserve:  That is a chart of how much the Dollar has gone up right?

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Potential attack vector in generating Bitcoin addresses?
|

The point is I am not talking about targeting one specific address and finding collisions, but about targeting "every address", just generating until you find addresses that hold BTC to some extent, and taking whatever it is you find on the way.
I think it is semi-possible. while going for one address is unlikely to the extreme, just going after multiple random addresses is much more likely.. I was testing keygen and memory once, and I had bitcoin generate 1 million keypairs. If a botnet was to do this scheme, I would think that there would be a good probablility of getting a small few. however the likelyhood of getting a single address with a large amount of bitcoins, is as impossible as attacking one address. I also wonder how many addresses most people have..

you can always assume that someone will be mining
Eventually, mining stops, since the supply of potential coins is capped at a number about 4x the current number in existence. Mining will not stop. people will pay to mine (by paying the electric bill) just to keep their own transactions going, also to keep their investment secure.

Yep, this is true. Selling characters for anything other than ISK is bannable, as is selling assets (they're not allowed to be listed in char sales, with the exception of supercaps as they're hard to sell).
The fact that you've posted these here with names in broad daylight makes it very risky for anyone to buy them.
well I don't think I should really listen to friends anymore :|
