now this will seem off-topic because it's not about amazon gift cards...
but i was just going to say that 'localbitcoins' probably don't really have to be local if you're trading in huge amounts
i mean, if you had an opportunity to do a good $100,000 deal, it might be worth jumping on a plane and flying to the other side of the world for

PHP can sometimes do weird things with variable types... try this and get back to us: $rucoin->sendfrom('', $addy, (float) $amount); Hmmm, I will have to give that a try sometime, was actually coming back to report that I got it working with: $rucoin->sendfrom('', $addy, (double)$amount); just as good

Alright, I have this code: <?php require '../htdocs/config.php'; require '../util.php';
function update_req($reqid, $status) { $query = " UPDATE requests SET status='$status' WHERE reqid='$reqid' AND curr_type='RUC' "; do_query($query); }
$query = " SELECT requests.reqid AS reqid, uid, amount, addy FROM requests JOIN rucoin_requests ON requests.reqid=rucoin_requests.reqid WHERE req_type='WITHDR' AND amount > 0 AND status='VERIFY' AND curr_type='RUC' "; $result = do_query($query); $rucoin = connect_rucoin(); while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $reqid = $row['reqid']; $uid = $row['uid']; $amount = $row['amount']; $addy = $row['addy'];
if ($rucoin->getbalance('') >= 0) { update_req($reqid, 'PROCES'); $rucoin->sendfrom('', $addy, $amount); update_req($reqid, 'FINAL'); } } ?> And it is working perfectly all the way up to: $rucoin->sendfrom('', $addy, $amount); I believe I have a syntax error being fed to the jsonRPCClient as I know the $addy and $amount are both returning correct values, I have tested issuing the command by hand to rucoind so I know it supports the "sendfrom" function and is accessible yet I am receiving an HTTP 500 error from rucoind. I am using the "$rucoin = connect_rucoin" function in various places to send calls to rucoind and retrieve information, all without error, but this last thing just does not seem to want to work. Anyone have any ideas...? PHP can sometimes do weird things with variable types... try this and get back to us: $rucoin->sendfrom('', $addy, (float) $amount);

Hi Bitcoiners and BTC Matrix members,
It's apparently for members that BTC Matrix is not really experiencing activity now days, so I think perhaps 1 BTC entry is too expensive that some people think? -Mal
Its a form of a ponzi scheme. No one is really interested in that. haha are you new here?

Economy / Gambling / Re: Idea for a gambling game - Satoshifactor Game
|

Let me try to explain it all better:
Anouncing a domain that redirects to a website with this game behind a tor onion but instead of the .onion in the link, using the link with .tor2web.org instead of .onion, so that it can be accessed in any browser without tor.
Could be a domain like: Satoshifactor.com , I would be advertising the domain, not the website that it would redirect to, and so wouldn't need to be liable for the site.
The game is very simple and the site would only need to tell instructions and the bitcoin address of the game:
Every participant sends bitcoins to the bitcoin address of that game, and participations are made public only at the end of each game, that runs every time 5 bets are made. The number of satoshis that you send is multiplied by the number of satoshis you are left with at, at that address. If the result from that multiplication is the greater one you win all money that was put on that game and the Casino gets only 2-3% of it. Even the Casino could play, although it would have the slight advantage of knowing in advance the bets at stake but still there would be no guarantees that it would win as all participants would be listed after the draw, and the five bets of each game are placed with too fast to give much time for the Casino to decide, even with automated bots. And maybe it could provide way of keeping bets secret even to himself so that he wouldn't have such advantages of knowing bets in advance.
so if i have an address that contains 1 trillion satoshis (10,000 BTC) and send 4 satoshis, my score is 4 trillion, so in order for someone to beat me, they need to have a higher score? people who own 100 btc or less would have almost no chance how could this remain a secret? the site would have to use a different deposit address for each person, otherwise people could look up the game in the blockchain before sending their bet.

Aah, the joys of PHP and echo'ing SQL statements carefully crafted by hand yeah these days i'm more likely to be using codeigniter's $db->last_query() function after having it constructed for me

I can't see any other reason for the selloffs. Anyone wanting to offload coins would not do it like this. It's like wasting money, as it's better to gradually offload it at higher prices than just selling down like this.
i see this over and over again but disagree doing it slowly increases the very real risk that someone else with a similar amount of coins gets in and dumps before you do. it's a game of chicken.
