Jan,
I forgot. To print a wallet backup QR on paper I have to actually take a photo of the QR code as displayed on my phone. I can't export the QR image or email it or anything. Right?
You wouldn't want to email it. Think of the consequences of it floating around for everyone to see. |

Much of the new ask volume is due to large walls between 150-600.
Hmm, a bear could just add 1000 coins for sale at 1,000,000,000 to manipulate that chart. But lol at the large walls, some one must expect this to really pop. Didn't I just read some claim that on Gox you can put 1000 walls 1000$ each as long as you have $1000 on Gox? And if you withdraw your $1000 your walls wouldn't even disappear? I mean yes I was also bullish for these charts but with them not having anything to do with the actual money available how would I even be able to tell how much money I will get when I sell my dollars when all this is fake? So who's providing false info? The wall posters or those who claim the falls may be fake? I think some users have tested it and found it not to be the case. Plus, if you could, we'd see a LOT more than just 10mil in bids. People would be manipulating the frak out this. I've tested it. Invalid orders (those without enough funding) don't show in the public order book. Incidentally managing the order states when users balance changes (by trade or deposit/withdraw) is the cause for the engine lag. So for my comfort I may widthdraw bitcoins, invalidating and hiding my asks automatically until my bitcoins flow back to my account? That's what that was about? Boring. |

the max online users trend looks so broke. It more than doubled from the current "high" levels in one day. How can this be?

Most likely is that the usual heave-hoe battering ram pattern that happened at all the other psychological barriers will happen at $100, too. But this time bigger, since it's a big milestone.
To be honest, the $31.9 felt like a much bigger mile stone. A mile stone that prevented ATH from happening for just sooooo long. |

Thanks for the reply. So I was indeed reading the site correctly - it's just that the Tx really was taking many hours to confirm. Like I said, I am new to this, so I now realize that I jumped the gun and put the item in the mail too soon. On thing that's interesting though is how the buyer exploited the bitcoin price crash to effectively take a 20% discount before the "24 hour average" could respond to the market. In this case it didn't matter since the price recovered so quickly, but if this practice is widespread, I wonder if there's anything that can or should be done about it. Definitely! The Bitcoin price is the latest trade at the biggest exchange for me always. Nothing else. Everything else will be exploited with those low margin items like cash, gold or silver. Problem is the latest trades happen many times per second so it's more convenient to poll some weighted average every some minutes than to guarantee to use the latest trade. |

Since I just saw this thread... some things that I feel could be added to the service that eBay has which makes bitmit lacking in comparison:
1. "Watch" feature - being able to track the auctions which catch your eye and remembering them for later
2. "Best Offer" feature - being able to offer less than the asking price for "Buy it now"-style listings. The other person would be able to accept or decline said offers. (Sellers would be allowed to toggle best offers on or off when making a listing)
3. A better advanced search functionality. Possibly being able to search completed listings, as well as search by category and price, among other things.
All of these things I feel would attract buyers more.
Good ideas. So far you can filter your search by price and search for sold items but not within the categories yet. I just sold my first item on Bitmit. It had been listed for 2 months, and then when the market crashed from $95 to $75 today, I guess the buyer thought it would be a good time to take advantage of the "Bitcoins at the 24-hour average" rule, but whatever.... Anyways, I saw this on the seller page: x Payment received (0 Bitcoin received)
Unconfirmed incoming transactions: 0.187 Bitcoin To me this looks like he sent the coins, but they Tx has not had enough network confirmations to satisfy Bitmit. The thing is, it has said the same thing for many hours now, and I'm sure the payment must have been confirmed by now. My problem is that I already put the item in the mail & marked it shipped. Is there any way to tell what is happening with payments? I fear that I may have shipped the item before the buyer ever sent money to the Bitmit escrow. The transaction has not been confirmed yet. https://blockchain.info/zh-cn/address/1JH2EWutF5G45S6HLARWARB2UHtYUvSuKFI remember a similar case some days ago which took about 1 day to get confirmed. looks low priority doesn't it? With 0.000BTC fee no wonder it took so long. Bitmit should maybe make clear to both the shopper and the seller that the seller is not expected to deliver before the first confirmation. It is out of Bitmit's hands to make sure the money arrives and this particular shopper had all the time in the world to double spend. Not all sellers will be aware, particularly when they use bitmit to get hands on their first bitcoins ever which I find a good way to go. Maybe the green "Payment received" should not appear before there are x confirmations. Make it some "Payment eventually on its way". |

This is an easy way to encourage your town officials to accept Bitcoin without the need to explain anything about Bitcoin. You can push e-gov link as a modern alternative to their old way of handling things. Hmm, my county uses Civic Plus http://civicplus.com/ I will encourage them to use e-gov link while also pressuring Civic Plus to accept Bitcoin. Better convince civicplus to take the same step as e-gov link than to advertise a product you have no clue about for one single feature that you happen to be a fan boy of and that you were presented with for exactly that reason. |

Yeah, unfortunately none of the trading partners I've dealt with so far have been on OTC. It's mostly newbies just trying to figure out how to simply get some bitcoins and avoid some of the fees and hassle of BitInstant.
I understand that LocalBitcoins needs a way to earn revenue, so I can see why they would require a payment (such as the escrow fee) to participate in their rating system. It would be nice though if I could pay a small fee for a membership that allows me to provide feedback when I don't use escrow. The same for me: I did many good trades on localbitcoins and I still have 0 feedback  Im not on otc. There should be a better rating system. +1 |

would loop detection be a thing that could work or do you not get the stream at the server at all? The client could tell the server if it detects a loop maybe?
The stream is completely P2P so the server doesn't have the stream it just hostes the app. *Not the developer* The server does do book keeping so it could take a note of a loop detection from one of its clients and report it to other clients. It would mean though that the dev would not only have to develop loop detection (hash each image, keep the most recent hashes (maybe only those fitting a certain filter that matches only one in 30 pictures, get full pictures that match a repeating hash to be sure?) but also develop rogue loop report prevention. |

Maybe not only the Staoshi client should have an option to hide the balance.
o show balance
o show balance after click
o show balance after password
All clients have the balance as the most prominent feature which is bad in a face to face trading situation.

Almost 10 mil in bids.  Damn, 10M/50k=200 and if this would really just settle as is, it would just get worse as 99% of the BTC would be sold below $200. I mean what happens now at $80 should be happening at $200 to be a fair game. I see no possible way of bitcoin crashing if nothing fundamentally bad happens. |

- show the number of confirmations for each line in the transaction history,
There is a patch for that! You may upvote it or suggest improvements if you don't like the result and I can improve on it. If you are not an Android developer, I could also provide you with a binary but I'm even too lazy to use my own version so it's not being updated and easily available on the market neither. Google has some strange rules about "exporting crypto" that scare me from putting my version on my developer account as I don't want my account to be suspended. (Well, actually writing this, I feel really like a sissi. Maybe I put it online soon but then again I don't want to step on other people's feet and would have to change the name but still honor Jan and other people's work sufficiently to not be the bad guy … and how about using Jan's server? Well … you know  ) |

well, the 2 "girls" online now, are guys with 15 snippets of girls barely moving without mic. Be creative and ask to verify. I asked "touch the chair behind you" and "she" verified with waving. Generally no voice is almost 100% not what you want.
