Maybe this would be a better question for Meta. I'm happy with moving it if that's the consensus.

This is a little weird, and I was hoping for some advice. I was going through a webserver's referrer logs today and this site came up: http://pastehtml.com/view/ayrpygp5m.htmlIt's a list of what appears to be forum userIDs, bitcoin hashes, and websites where available. I saved a copy in case it goes away, but I am curious to know why this is there or of what interest this information would be to somebody. Thanks, /i. P.S. The IP that made the request with the pastehtml referrer was 188.29.94.119, which seems to be London, UK. |

It is compatible, yes--you can sign and encrypt messages that PGP users will be able to verify and decrypt, and you can verify and decrypt messages from users of PGP.
it is not a drop-in replacement, so if you have scripts that rely on calling pgp in certain ways, you'll need to adapt them to gpg.

If they remove it, I'm reposting my copy.
Seriously, it's public info now and can never go back to being private no matter how hard you or anyone else tries.
Speaking as someone whose info was in that database, thank you. Like you said, the info is out there and I need to be able to verify what they got for myself. I haven't as yet been able to decrypt my password but I have been trying. Luckily, I do in fact use a different password everywhere, and didn't have much at MtGox. |

Could someone point me towards some information where we, the MtGox user base, have verified that the people claiming to be Mt. Gox are who they say they are? I do hope that, after a security incident like this, people aren't just handing over more of their financial and personal information just because they're asking for it.
Thanks!

I agree; though creating bitcoin addresses is the very definition of trivial. Create a unique one to give them, then block any further SMSes from them.

I tried the SMS one but it wants to talk to port 8333 directly and I'm not usually all that generous with the firewall. So, no. Not as yet.

Bitcoins aren't actually "found". ...
Thanks for that answer! If I had any BTC I'd toss some at you. /i. |

I don't feel too bad asking such a newbie question, this being the newbie forum, so: what happens then? Is there an "Official Plan"?
I might add that directions to where these questions might be answered are also gratefully accepted. |

What is the actual likelihood that all of these 21 million BTC will be found? It seems to me, and I am not a mathematician, that at some point the time and cost of mining will be greater than the value of the bitcoins left to be found. I don't feel too bad asking such a newbie question, this being the newbie forum, so: what happens then? Is there an "Official Plan"?

For me the general rule is that your Dwolla transfer will go through shortly after the bitcoin market rebounds and you can no longer take advantage of a good opportunity.  (But I think it actually depends on your physical bank more than anything else) Heh. Precisely. Thanks for the tip. |

Is there a general rule for how long it takes for bank-dwolla transfers to take? I'm curious, I just signed up with them.

Meh, it's their forum, their bandwidth, their resources. They can set what limitations and restrictions they like.

Post Number Two, wherein I introduce myself as someone with a skepticism for central banking and an interest in a gold/silver standard currency. A bitcoin user for all of 24 hours.

Works for me. Off to lurk about and see what the etiquette is around here.
