The terms are at the discretion of the loaner.
Why don't you just ask for a 5 BTC loan then? There's no reason to make it complex with borrowing mining cycles. It did not come to mind to ask for a loan, I was in a mining state of mind for lack of a better term. And when I think of it gauging from posts I've read on this forum which allude to the same thing, my feeling is that asking for a loan will not come across too well. But I'm not a timid person so I will follow your advice and I am asking anyone who has then read the above if they are willing to make me a 5 BTC loan with their preferred conditions. I think I should then start a separate thread somewhere more appropriate for that. Get yourself a pair of decent video cards, you can make that 5 BTC in 10 days, even with present difficulty. |

Yeah, not selling either... just stockpiling, but was doing better before this most recent increase, even with previous ones. Might be time to add another PC or two.

Yeah let me install some random turds browser tool with a Smeagol logo that automatically sends out BTC... but only if I can link it to my Mt. Cox account!
Smeagol logo is all right. Reddit likes it. Bitcoin Tool is just a short JavaScript code inserted on websites. For JavaScript on a non-localhost website it is impossible to access your wallet in any way. The Send BTC button is realized by an additional application, a HTTP mini-server bitcoin_httpd ran locally (also opensource). The HTTP mini-server does not open any files, and does not send any data to the Internet. You have to enter rpcuser and rpcpass to confirm each transaction. If you don't trust the Send BTC button anyway, don't run bitcoin_httpd, and the Send BTC button won't work. Problem solved. Maybe I should put all this into some sort of FAQ. Post the source code and I'll have a look through |

I'm getting anywhere from 1/3rd to 1/4 the BTC/day out of my rig since the last increase... I know they say that difficulty doesn't relate to the price directly, but I think it needs to start  $15/BTC isn't going to cut it for long... |

I think the bitcoins will go up....but the speed and how much would depend on what you can buy.
right now there are consumers accepting bitcoins.....but mostly tech guys....bitcoins will go up when you can
buy stuff from places like walmart.com....i do like that Newegg is starting to take them.....
I think bitcoins needs to get out there....the only way to find info on it is on the forums.....
there is no site with bitcoin news....consumers can advertise...etc.........
untill we get mainstream i dont think the price will get very high

i just googled about newegg and bitcoin and to be honest.. i am not liking what i am seeing. it appears a 3rd party is in the middle of any transaction, probably taking a small cut out of it (free for now it seems), and then making sure your goods arrive via mail. if one wants to say newegg is accepting bitcoins that is really stretching the truth of it. here is the domain where i found the advertisement and here is the whois.. not giving me a lot of faith in it when they hide like this: Registrant Private Whois Service Private Whois Service f7o9xo64ddd5c86160f3@oqjij874d9300d54bd95.privatewhois.net *******PLEASE DO NOT SEND LETTERS****** ****Contact the owner by email only**** c/o bitspend.com N4892 Nassau Bahamas Why would people dealing in anonymous currency not publish their contact details, and register the business in a tax haven? LOL Seriously guys... You want it anonymous and decentralized, or you don't. |

OP himself seems to have used the leaked list of e-mail addresses from Mt.Gox to send out spam about his "Bitcoin Tool" so I know for sure that I wouldn't install that one. Would be nice if we could put "Spammer" or similar next to his name.

4.94 of those are probably mine. They still aren't showing up in my account. Which makes me wonder how many more people like me still don't have all of their coins.
I'd bet a dollar that after a certain time period, any unclaimed ones go into Mt. Cox's wallet. I'd go one step further, and say they're already there, and they will just pay out AS they are claimed. |

I would argue that it is theft. Someone else on Mt Gox was likely shorted in this mismanagement, and now the BTC has been removed from the system so that it cannot be easily undone.
Also i would call 60BTC a big deal, thats $918 USD at current rates, and more than i mine in 2 months with my 5970 at current difficulty.
BTC cant be magically duplicated in database error, so somewhere someone is getting screwed, whether its a user or Gox itself.
 1. It's theft 2. current difficulty sux 3. Gox has more than enough to cover it. They shouldn't come out of this unscathed. |

This is the thing that troubles me about MtGox - the seeming inability to learn from mistakes or listen to advice. Is it stubborness? Arrogance? Do they live in a bubble and make no effort to find out what their customers are saying?
I dunno . . . so many of the issues they have been having are completely avoidable . . . and yet invariably they choose the path of maximum clusterflock. I find it utterly baffling.
Seconded, Thirded, and motion carried. Everybody keeps going back to the "just be patient" bit, but at least for me, it really isn't whether or not its 3 days or 3 hours or a month - it's this ^^^. They just keep doing stupid shit. They have MILLIONS of dollars worth of BTC, and it's like its being run by high school kids. Something simple like a "home" button to show the main webpage once you're logged in. It's just the simplest shit... it almost seems like they're saying "OK, whats the best way to do this?" and then do the EXACT OPPOSITE. |

 Bonzai Buddy, without a doubt! |

I thought OP was saying they should be square because they came from "blocks"  +0.05 BTC for sig |

No, notice that when they said it's been pushed to 15:00 GMT they didn't specify a date. So I guess they meant next year.
They put a date... just not a year |

I predict... more delays
Yeah, why don't they just push it out 2 more days, and then have some breathing room to test everything. You don't have to open the market right after opening your site. Opening the market right after the site assumes they are actually going to open the site. I don't think there's any danger of that right now. If it were me, running the site, I would spend 30 seconds every few hours posting an update... like "Hey... site is going live... site isn't going live... small problem with this, big problem with that" rather than this once every 12-24 hours AFTER deadlines they arbitrarily post. |

I took a screen-cap while I could, and everything rolled back fine. I "lost" the 70 coins I bought at 13 which means I get no commission trades for a month It's obscene to me that they're "discounting" their trade rate... They should be giving everybody a couple of bitcoins for free, and no trade commissions for a month for anybody. It takes some gargantuan juevos after all the delays and bullshit to even think about charging people money right now. |

sorry but like I said $15-$30 is offensive - I'm not interested in anything for that price range.
The "fair enough" part was me saying yes, I can accept 100-500. Let's see your portfolio, unless you were just trolling, in which case disregard. |
