http://Blockchain.info is an address to collect of bitcoin.but when i search this address then see an error occurred. Please give me suggestion about it Based on their twitter, they are currently under maintenance. Try using other block explorers like blocktrail.com or btc.blockr.iotheyre just under maintenance maybe because of the recent stress test just be patient Their servers should be more than powerful to handle a surge of transactions as it can afford to have 1000+ connections to them. They have been incredibly inconsistent and many bugs have surfaced, I won't use them if I were you. Both the above mentioned block explorers are very good. Personally I also find good use to the blockr API as well.

I am sorry but I don't see any possible way of Bitcoin being offline for good. Maybe in one area of the world, but not worldwide.
If I was to pretend that, that did happend - a solar storm for example - then IF we were alive, I would say Bitcoin would be useless at that point.

Nobody really wants to put a large investment into a machine that probably won't get much use. They're cool, and the concept is great but not that many people just go up to this machine and buy magic internet money.
That is a false statement. Many people go up to machines and buy internet money (PaySafeCard) to use in gambling and what not. If the Bitcoin ATMs are not catching up is because they are not promoted properly.

I do have one question...where do all of you manage to store all that tin foil? It must take up a lot of space.
Your right to think should be revoked so you can just be a thoughtless governemnt mind slave. This nsa stuff is verifiable, they catch (or at least try to) EVERYTHING they can, and thats why multi-billion dollar data storage centers are being built. The blockchain makes it easier for them to monitor btc. Everything they capture will be there for them to access. Good luck denying that! Ok so let's assume for a second the NSA really monitors everything. So what? What's the big deal about privacy anyway? What's important is that right now you're still able to think for yourself, you should make the best of it while you still can. Personally I couldn't care less about the NSA snooping around, I got nothing to hide, if you wanna bore yourself to death monitoring my daily activities, go ahead knock yourself out. Wrong. Your thoughts are generated based on what your brain has been fed with. So you are not able to think for yourself, as you think you do. You simply choose from the available options and proceed/modify accordingly.

So your point is that people use Satoshi's name and what he said to promote their proposition. That is good and bad at the same time. It is good because (if true) we are sticking to what was envisioned by Satoshi - BUT we should not be limited to that as times change.It is bad because it might be used to promote something that is bad for Bitcoin as a whole. That is why consensus must be reached I fully agree with that statement, but I just would love to see, somebody saying "Satoshi said this, but he was wrong and this is why". I haven't seen such a statement, yet. That would be a honest thing. But using his name to promote your own vision is just straight propaganda. Another nice example, for what is happening would be "Small gods" from Terry Pratchett dit: So your point is that people use Satoshi's name and what he said to promote their proposition. My point is not, that they use something Satoshi said, but something he didn't say, but make it sound like, he said something like that.Gotcha, I know what you mean. In the end however, we should not depend only on what Satoshi said and learn to use our own judgement according to the circumstances.

Faucets is a good way to get in to Bitcoin if you are a newbie and cannot afford to buy Bitcoins or mine them. Use that in combination with a signature campaign and as a new starter you are on your way to Bitcoin land.

14Ncr7JVsNRrczzt8ybusTDBaNWbUxu5Sx > 1btc 1MiXFcB9rbZh2XFvnBPZY6Ha38kks7eBLJ > 0.4 btc
What is disturbing is if you "fund" your account, there is nothing else to do with the BTC than buying keywords. Not yet found a possibilty to withdraw or something, let's see how it progresses.
Hmm, all I see is your purchases and the coins moved to other addresses (currently ending at https://blockchain.info/address/1AdhncLSb5HCcZ1C6EfpBzDCwYGA4T7iTY ) which do not have 112 BTC as claimed. Indeed, it is disturbing that you cannot withdraw. How will you withdraw your earnings?

It depends on the miner. They often mine 0 transaction blocks, because it is faster in certain situation. They often reject some transactions(everybody with a full node can configure, what transactions get in their mempools)
Do they find blocks faster because they were lucky and found the right nonce very fast? Not sure what you mean by that but, miners have hashing power, the ones with more hashing power have more chances of finding the winning hash. That however also depends on luck as miners with much lower hashrate can find the winning hash. So, more hashing power = more chances to win. However, luck is also an important factor.

Bought 3 keywords, lets see what happens.
(Btw according to FAQ they plan to pay people with advertising income)
Can you give us the payment address? Advertising income still won't cut it. Unless they charge ridiculous fees or have very few visitors in their search engine (which I doubt it).

By that logic, you're going to be multiples slower than with TOR vs non-TOR, regardless of the blocksize.
No. With higher blocksizes, disadvantage of TOR mining increases. It is possible to run a mining rig over TOR to a node that can be a mining pool or solo mining pool. The bandwidth required over TOR is minimal because of the design of the Stratum protocol. The blocksize can be small or large, as determined by the full node and your mining rig(s). The bandwidth required between your site and the mining pool is independent of block size and independent of your hash rate, or even number of mining rigs if you use a local stratum proxy. Yes, that's a legitimate use-case. I honestly have been talking about solo-mining, which anyway seems to be marginal nowadays. Unless you 're an ASIC manufacturer, or a huge fan of the sport/hobbie (and can afford to of course), then SOLO mining is a thing of the past of where we get to tell other people that: I remeber once I used to solo-mine.... It's like the internet (in my case). One day I will be able to tell my grand kids that I am older than the internet. That would blow their minds....

Im not saying that a 9 MB has been minted. Im just seeing on tradeblock.com that there are currently more than 8k transactions with a size of more than 9 MB since the last block. I dont know if I see anything wrong?!?
Ah that is something else entirely. You're talking about unconfirmed transactions, right? There is ~6500 on blockchain.info and the size is around 5800kb. This is actually quite good as this number tends to be much higher. Does this not have to do with that stress test they are doing again now in September?
I do not see any signs of a stress test just yet. Have they stated a day on which they will start this "stress test"? I dont understand how it is possible that we have roundabout 6k unconfirmed transactions and already minted 2 blocks. I thought, miners are packing all transactions together. But I guess the answer is more complicated Miners confirm transactions with higher fees and priority first. The rest stay in the pool until confirmed.

Of course, there is also the possibility that they are trying to keep the dispute going since it keeps the price low I bet none of you thought of that huh?

Yeah, but..... I pay 1BTC let's say to buy the keyword Bitcoin. Then when everyone searches for the word Bitcoin I get 25% of 0.00000400BTC which is paid by whom? Is it paid from my initial payment from buying the keyword (ponzi style)? Or is SearchTrade going to pay for it? If it's the latter then how is SearchTrade going to pay for it since they expect to get 25% out of each search too?
Have to agree, the figures just do not add up. Even if they sell the same keyword several times over but this will just compound the problem even more. Please check my previous post above yours I have edited it and included interesting info

swagbucks already do that
Well, I guess we know where they got their idea from. My question is, who will be funding this? They state that: CURRENT PAYOUT PER SEARCH Bitcoin: 0.00000400 USD: 0.0016 (Approx @ 290$ per Bitcoin) 25% goes to -> Search User 25% goes to -> Keyword Owner 25% goes to -> App Owner 25% goes to -> SearchTrade Nice, but who will be paying for it? I doubt the sale of keywords will be enough to cover the keyword everytime it is searched. So I expect this to go bust very soon (if it will ever launch). If I understood right , this is only a Pre-sale so they launch and they are now at 111 BTC (and only half got sold) so I think sales will be opened officially after they launch , there is planty of keyboards logically Yeah, but..... I pay 1BTC let's say to buy the keyword Bitcoin. Then when everyone searches for the word Bitcoin I get 25% of 0.00000400 BTC which is paid by whom? Is it paid from my initial payment from buying the keyword (ponzi style)? Or is SearchTrade going to pay for it? If it's the latter then how is SearchTrade going to pay for it since they expect to get 25% out of each search too? EDIT: And just to prove that they don't know what they are doing - or are lying.... Each party gets 25%, and as they state ( http://searchtrade.com/defaulthome/ ) CURRENT PAYOUT PER SEARCH Bitcoin: 0.00000400 USD: 0.0016 (Approx @ 290$ per Bitcoin) 25% 0.00000125 BTC 0.0004 USD goes to -> Search User 25% 0.00000125 BTC 0.0004 USD goes to -> Keyword Owner 25% 0.00000125 BTC 0.0004 USD goes to -> App Owner 25% 0.00000125 BTC 0.0004 USD goes to -> SearchTrade According to their "math", that is 500 satoshis, NOT 400. Scam anyone? Ponzi? Does anyone have their wallet address of where those 111 BTC reside? Did anyone buy a keyword?

Calm down, you're being a fanboy , szabo.best.vwh.net doesn't affect everyone just a very small group. If you are concerned about what szabo is up to why not just follow him on twitter or something?
Not convinced Szabo actually uses his twitter account anymore, that or he had a personality transplant recently. Makes me wonder whether this is somehow connected. I haven't followed Szabo, but I recently looked at his twitter account. I seriously wonder how anybody could think that Szabo is Satoshi besides working on the same technical topic, they don't seem to have much in common. Hey, some people even think that Gavin might be Satoshi. That truly makes one wonder... WTF?

We don't want democracy. In democracies 10 sheeps vote is better than 9 professors. The right one is not always the most voted. I'm strongly against this proposition.
+1. We don't need democracy. We need "meritocracy". The people who knows what are they doing should decide. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MeritocracyOK, and who decides who those people are? And how is it any different than what we have now with the blocksize debate? It's either Core or XT, right?

So, if I understand correctly: The OP (a senior member soon to become hero member) has 25K Bitcoins in a blockchain.info web wallet and is asking how to transfer those coins to a paper wallet? Like, really?

with the recent talk about the fork and all that is it the wrong time to invest for someone like me who is new to the game
If things correct themselves and we all come to a middle ground, then now is the best time to buy (or maybe a little lower between 180 USD to 200 USD). It all really depends on how much you can financially lose and if you are willing to be a long time holder. Currently, Bitcoin/bitcoin is still considered an experiment.True, and as such, one must take great care of how they invest their money and never invest more than they can afford to lose.
