Nice hardware you've got there. Get rid of the Western Digital Green crap and try to get Samsung Evo SSD's
I just put up the Samsung Evo line. I personally like Western Digital for a drive with a spinning platter. I have had a ton of Seagates fail on me and never had a single Western digital fail. (Knock on wood) I will put up what ever will sell, so if people want seagate I will list seagates. lol Nice, regarding the Evos. Now I don't mean WD, I mean WD Green. These are slow and unreliable drives. Perhaps they are better now, ok, but I had 2 crapping out on me. |

DNS propagation takes time. It's usual to have a time window where it works for some people while it does not for other.

Welcome everyone!  Indeed the china market seemed to make a huge impact.
A few questions:
Btc-e vs mtgox, which is the better place to buy? Or are there others you would recommend at the moment?
Is litecoin a worthy investment? I have watched it double in price this week and didn't know what the majority of people on here thought of LTC.
How many people actually use faucets?
I'd say BTC-e. I hear Mt. Gox has withdrawal issues. I can't really speak for them as I've never used their service. But I hear negative things when it comes to withdrawing your cash. I wouldn't waste time on litecoin. It's just the inventors of that trying to get rich too. Faucets are for small people with small money. litecoin is not a waste of time. People with videocards mine litecoins and sell them for BTC. It's 10x more effective this way Unless you mean for speculation purposes. There I have no opinion |

So you ordered pre-order hardware from a company with shitty history, non existent customer service and owners that are convicted felons and you are surprised you get scammed?
You're talking after the fact. It's obvious NOW. Then you aren't trying to put the burden on the victims of the scam, right? The criminals are the ones 100% to blame, all the time. And it was obvious to everyone who used there brains from December 2012, latest Feb 2013 for the slow people, that bfl and josh were scamming cockroaches. Which i say, and will stick to that If you ordered after this date, you need to start doing your research before you jump the gun and act like a fool! Its nothing personal, its just the truth. People are falable, always but you can do something about it, like thinkingngor yourself instead of being a sheep! I didn't order anything. The fact that people are naive does not justify scams. Then they do not have to do research on scams, that's the job of the police, regulators, etc... Furthermore, the rhetoric of blaming the victim is getting old, to say the least. People should be ashamed of insisting on this crap, libertarian or not, wild-wild West or not ... Your statement suggests that I was saying scams are fine because people are stupid. The only stupid person is you thinking that anything of that sort. I have given my condolences to people in the past but that doesn't change the facts here. If you ordered after march, you really need to work on your research techniques and use some of those brain cells. People want to be spoke to nice all the time but that's what leads us into the world we have today! Security over freedom and getting sweet fa for it.... We were warned about this! Critical thinking/critical advice is paramount to being better at what you do. When people put people on pedestals (think education system, actors/artists, CEO etc etc) these people believe all the hype that comes with been 'given& such status. Life is fluid and expansive and we have so much to learn still, open your mind, take advice, weather good or bad on the chin and learn from it. Stop being persumtuious and experience life and what it can offer! In conclusion, criticism, mild to harsh is essential for learning and progression! Simples Oh yes, josh is one of the scummiest people ever to grace this planet. He is the lowest of low life cockroaches! He personally as a mind that gives no thought of anything but himself! Bring back the guillitene..... Oh yes, department of homeland security just brought 50,000 didn't they.... For the FEMA camps! Scum like josh will probably dodge it and it will be the good people that suffer, as history as shown time and time again Do you have trouble understanding stuff or do you tend to rush to conclusions? No, I'm not saying you mean that "scamming is ok because people are stupid". What you and the other poster are implying is that people are to blame for being scammed by a company. Am I wrong? No, I don't think so. I'm not even going to try to counter-argue the rest of your U.S. centric tirade. Just to say that consumer protection rules work differently elsewhere... |

Just wait, there is still hope. Here is your current estimated confirmation time 13 hours. I had a transaction yesterday which was sent without a fee, and it had an estimated time of 28 hours. I checked it today and it was confirmed It's been 24 hours and that estimated time keeps changing. It's now up to 15h. It really depends on whether a generous miner will decide to include your transaction in a block. So the estimated time is really, REALLY estimate. How could I do such if I wanted to? Well, mine and generate a block including all transactions. Solo, I mean. In other words, impossible with my very low hash rate |

WHERE does the money come from, in this game?  |
|
|
|
scrypt as in LTC and Feathercoin?
Yes. Or even pools that mine the most profitable coin and payout in BTC, like hashco.ws or multipool.us However, for speculative purposes, it can be wiser to mine a coin that you see it has future and hold it. |

BFL has behaved as a scam. It is dangerous to send money their direction. Ex: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=114329.0Use this calculator: http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/Then, if you really want to use mining contracts, check out alternatives like https://cex.io . That's about 0.105 BTC or ~$35 per Gh/s, which is damn expensive, of course. However, you earn BTC while you hold the Gh/s, and you can sell them later. I mention this cloud mining/exchange site because I don't know of better, please investigate carefully yourself. |

I think I'll just buy them since mining isn't profitable anymore...
You can mine profitable scrypt coins with ATI video cards and further on sell them for 80+% of the original cost. Even losing a bit and paying for electricity, they pay for themselves and spare you the hassle of sending money and personal docs to an exchange, paying fees along the way, and trusting that exchange. It's a matter of preference, I guess. |

Hello, first post.
I fail to see the advantage of an online wallet. Isn't this against the base principles of bitcoins?
Bitcoins are designed to work without a centralized authority, yet people dump thousands of $$$ into a website.
People should be more careful with money in general. You would never give a complete stranger your money without any advantages in him keeping it for you.

Welcome. Indeed. Bitcoin is about de-centralization, pseudo-anonymity, operating with low trust, "being your own bank" and so on. Folks sending all their BTC to online wallets lose that in exchange for "convenience". Why not sticking with fiat, CC or paypal then? |

Around 1.9 BTC. I purchased ~1.1 BTC 2 months ago or so, and the rest came from mining, giveaways, my signature, faucets, etc...

Welcome!
There are plenty of threads about the hack already, don't know about that particular link. Thanks for it.
Indeed online wallets are a bad idea. Call me suspicious/paranoid, but I didn't really need this to happen, to think so. It's convenient to hold, say, 10 or 20€ worth of BTC for immediate online purchases, but not as storage of funds

Shouldn't this be posted in Alternate Currencies? I guess he doesn't have enough privileges to post there yet |

I had waited 24 hours for a response and the only one I got was some jackass saying Goodbye. I have no idea about MNC forks and issues. There was no email to me or anything in this forum thread about it. All I see was something not working and no response after 24 hours.
Yep, I'm pretty sure you indeed have no idea, and don't understand the kind and complexity of the service that hashcows is providing for just a ~2.5% fee. Perhaps you should try to do this yourself with your own scripts, set of pools and trading bot ... I did, and I'm back here |

I'm impressed by what happened here Details? Well, that you returned the BTC to DannyHamilton... Why wouldn't I? It was a mistake. Never mind. I'm paranoid and have seen too many threads about scams ... |
