I'm getting ready to give it a read and see what I can pull out from it. I see that Cryptsy has just added PPC/USD trading yesterday as well, now might be the time for me to stop slacking and buy some Peercoin when I have the chance. I think right now it's a good way to hedge some funds instead of just being invested into BTC.

If you wanted to buy Bitcoin on an exchange, then yes, selling your stocks and filling up your exchange account with USD would probably have to be the way to do it for now. As stated previously, I don't think any services exist yet where you could trade stocks directly for BTC online. The stock market and securities are so highly regulated, with all of the KYC AML compliancies & taxes and whatnot, and BTC is almost fully unregulated, that I think this would be a very sticky and complicated process to work on/create. With that being said though- I would guess there are multiple companies working on bringing that to the market already.

However, if you can get the physical shares, and not with your name solely printed on them as the owner, I would think you would be able to do a p2p trade with somebody. You would obv. have to find someone wanting them (JNJ wouldn't be a hard sell though), and trust would have to be established- both yourself and proving that the stocks are legitimate and could be transferred. A third party escrow would probably be the best case in that scenario.

Hope any of this helps,

That does look pretty decent in my opinion. Fairly basic, and very simplistic, but sometimes simple can be better. Only thing I would maybe suggest though is to put the slashes coming out of the top and bottom of the B, like this- BTC  And if I were you I would probably play around with rotating the B a little bit and see how it looks at different angles. Sometimes I feel like part of a logo can look better if it is angled a little bit, rather than just straight up and down.

Simple.
1) Set 0.00000001 minimum bid price for your ad slot.
2) Place your "house ad" bid of 0.00000001 BTC for the ad that you want to have there as a backup.
3) After your advertising bid is in place, then go to edit your ad slot and raise the minimum bid.

Hope this helps.

It's definitely a real paying faucet- several instant transactions to my MicroWallet account have shown me this. Decent referral rate too; 50% at the moment.

However, it doesn't look like OP has responded since the... OP. So I do not know the legitimacy of This particular venture. I would advise to not do any free advertising (I.e. url without your referral link) until concrete follow-up details have been posted, or payment is made up-front/escrowed.

Burn!

It's said to be much easier to live an honest life; less lies you have to constantly keep up with and build around.

Thanks for doing these cool giveaways to the community all the time, and good luck to everybody!

You seem to be stuck in the past, my friend. Both Mt. Gox and Liberty Reserve are long gone, and the consensus is actually that Mt. Gox turned out to be the Least reputable exchange.

For reputable Bitcoin purchasing with a credit/debit card, I recommend and can personally vouch for coin.mx (my personal choice besides p2p exchanges) or, I suppose- coinbase.com.
But I'm not a big fan of regulation-heavy Coinbase.

Good luck, and hope this helps,

I used to play the stock market a little bit and have thought about this as well. I use Scottrade and I'm pretty sure them and other brokerages like them have an option available of sort of "cashing out" your shares from their system, and having a physical declaration of shares held sent to you, as in a fancy paper saying you own X amount of shares in Z company. If you could do this, then you would be able to receive the shares and then trade them for BTC.

I've always heard good things about Peercoin; posting here to follow along and will be reading up on NuBits. These are definitely exciting times for all of us, with new technology being developed everyday in the crypto world that could change the whole world. I just feel blessed to still be a part of the "early" phase.

Dude at least get your proposed interest rate and repayment amount to match up. 20% =/= 10%

He clearly stated that he will be taking a percentage of the miners' output for offering this service, so nobody's saying he's going to host them for free. It is logical, sure- since he said he gets free power, and will be making money from your miners. The logic part checks out, the real issue though is trust, I.e. if you believe him or not.

I know if I had a large farm of miners, paid a lot in electricity, and was considering this service, then I would go to Sweden and meet up with him to see if it checks out or not. He has offered to do that for people. I don't know.

Bump, I may have some time to work on some ads later tonight if people need any work done. Did a 200x200px motion ad for my PrimeDice 3 referral link the other day, 86 referrals so far.  Will be making a sweet 468x60 PD3 motion banner as well if anybody's interested. Just let me know.

For sure. Heavily funded and for some reason militarized by our tax dollars, of course.

Made me chuckle out loud a little bit. So true. If only your reply and mine before it could automatically post in a thread like this everytime someone makes one about PD.

Lol, oh boy. If I had a dollar for every thread I saw where somebody lost their BTC gambling at PrimeDice and then called it a scam-

Well, I'd have a lot of dollars, that I could then lose at PD and accuse them of being a scam myself! 
(Obviously joking on that last part. It's Provably Fair. You can verify bets yourself to see that it is not scamming you.)

Seems legit, but is there anyway you could Double my bitcoins before turning them into Pure Gold Bitcoins?

Done, and Voucher + BTC address posted to Google+ profile.

Website is simple to use and highly functional; definitely bookmarking it for future use. Thank you for the kind giveaway for testing your services.

Kind of random, but 2 thoughts/comments-

@Stunna- Have you ever thought about doing "No Confirm" deposits, aka instant deposits, but just have to have at least 1 confirm before withdrawing?

And could anybody let me know how to sign up for the website owner 20% referral boost? I have sent an email or 2, no luck so far, but if there are stipulations could you please send them to support(@)cryptoplanet.co ?  86 referrals so far, but no whales yet- barely even tuna fish
