Im working on a site which accepts only bitcoins as payment , it's being designed rather than programmed using serif webx5 . I have a site up and running which uses paypals paste down buttons . My question is , is there anything available yet that requires zero programming knowledge that works just like paypals (paste down button) system
It needs to be available in the uk (GBP) I need (like paypal) to be able to set quantity limits on the items I sell. All the other paypal features would be good too like setting postage cost, etc.
I've looked at bit pay , which isn't available in GBP yet, there's bitcoinevolution but I can't set quantity limits . I may very well be missing something here , please keep in mind the nearest I get to code is when I copy it from paypal to my site as a button. I know serifwebx5 lists mals cart and roman cart as options , also I've heard of a "plugin" but wouldn't know how that integrates into a cart . any Any info would be much appreciated.

kgo - good point ! Zerokwel - 2weix - glad to hear they arrived , the die makers agreed to make fresh dies at no charge , if there had of being a cost , I would have been happy to keep them as they are . Maybe there might be someone who would like to buy 50 from you? Jbdive - if anybody who has the silver rounds , has a way of accurately testing the rounds for purity. I will offer a few free rounds from the next batch to cover chemical tester costs (wiithin reason). I know there .999 fine silver but a post regarding this from a respected member can only be a positive thing in view of the recent issues with scams and dishonest practices etc . Naypalm : thanks for posting there arrival

Above is a very close up image of one of the rounds from the 1st batch of 1000 The image below is my original artwork The red and blue areas are where the die makers deviated from the design . The second batch should have the area marked in blue removed and the area in red included . The die will also be given a mirror polish which will be reflected on the rounds surface (unlike batch 1), which in turn should make the "B" stand out more. . I will post fresh pictures of the next batch when they arrive. I was keen for the die makers to make new dies for the next batch , this does not mean batch 1 were in error rather they were a Mark 1 , with a run of 1000 , with the next being Mark 2 , run?......... I have made enquiries about a 1/4oz silver round , sizing on those would be approximately 1 inch , minimum production run is 500 , (125oz total) this would require an approximate outlay of over £4000 or $6500.

I've only skimmed the thread , so I appologise if this has no use or was mentioned earlier Could the technology in development on this website be adapted somehow ?? The raspberry pi , a miniature computer that runs Linux http://www.raspberrypi.org/?page_id=11

Is there going to be a major world wide Market crash on Monday ? Could that drive money back into bitcoin ?

This is healthy for bitcoin , if you take a long term chart and chop the bubble out from may , then everybody would be saying wow 6 + dollars , bitcoin would have tracked steadily upward , giving more time for bitcoin to mature . Things should be far better when the weak hands , speculators have left the room and bitcoin gets back to doing what it does best . Psychology of a bubble , what number are we at?

I quite agree that a 1 gram round wouldn't be the product to build a core position in silver , also as these are shipped from the uk , they have also being subject to 20% v.a.t. which we pay across the board over here on our silver bullion By way of a comparison Monarch precious metal in the US produce a 1gram round , admittedly this appears to be hand rolled hand stamped etc. http://www.monarchpreciousmetals.com/. There pricing is - Quantity Price 1 - 249 $2.83 (£1.72) 250 - 749 $2.51 (£1.53) 750 - 9999 $2.19 (£1.33) As the rounds are designated with weight and purity, they could be considered investment grade , each round has metal value + premium , the metal value may rise or fall depending on the Market , the premium in effect is paid for when you buy and is passed on when you sell , as the price of silver rises the the premium portion will look less apparent. it could be classified as jewellery perhaps if it were drilled and hung on a chain ( I did design the text on the round to allow for a small hole to be drilled avoiding the text on both sides) Im in general agreement with the view of the post above , I hope that this 1 gram silver round acts as an introduction to silver for somebody who up to this point is unfamiliar with the idea of storing away bullion , which may prompt that person to begin a collection. And to anyone who already has there core position in place , a 1 gram round could in the future, in a worse case senario of world economic meltdown , fiat money implosion , be a very handy tradable size .

Latest update on MyBitcoin ------
ARCHIVED RELEASE FROM AUGUST 4 2011
PGP-SIGNED COPY OF THIS RELEASE
Friday, August 5th, 2011
From the desk of Tom Williams, operator of MyBitcoin.com
For immediate release.
SECURITY BREACH DISCLOSURE
After careful analysis of the intrusion we have concluded that the software that waited for Bitcoin confirmations was far too lenient. An unknown attacker was able to forge Bitcoin deposits via the Shopping Cart Interface (SCI) and withdraw confirmed/older Bitcoins. This led to a slow trickle of theft that went unnoticed for a few days. Luckily, we do keep a percentage of the holdings in cold storage so the attackers didn’t completely clean us out. Just to clarify, we weren’t “fully” hacked aka “rooted”. You can still trust our PGP, SSL, and Tor public keys. It appears to be human error combined with a misunderstanding of how Bitcoin secures transactions into the next block. Our programmer was under the assumption that one block was good enough to secure a transaction. Two years ago when the software was written, this single confirm myth was a popular belief. In hindsight we should have credited deposits after one confirmation so they would show up in the transaction history, and held the deposit until it reached at least 3 confirmations. Keeping track of two balances and displaying them in the login area would have been trivial. CLAIM PROCESS DISCLOSURE
We are in the process of building a claim procedure for the remainder of the holdings now. We expect that we will have it online soon.
The claim process will consist of a online form where the claimant will be required to enter their MyBitcoin username and password. Their balance will be displayed along with the percentage of remaining Bitcoins that we still have in our holdings. That percentage will be paid to a Bitcoin address of their choosing. This percentage will be based on our current total liabilities vs. our existing assets. We will disclose these figures as soon as they have been totaled.
Each online claim will be written to a ledger and will be manually approved within 48 hours of being filed online. We have decided to have a manual claim approval process for better security. The last thing we all need right now is for someone to breach the claim form. We are confident clients will find this satisfactory.
RECEIVERSHIP
After some research and careful consideration regarding the appointment of a receiver we have concluded that it would be very costly and slow.
Also, finding a receiver that even understands what a Bitcoin is or how to handle the claim process online would be troublesome, and would only end up in increasing our costs. Receivers are typically paid from the remaining assets and we’d like to maximize the amount that we can disperse to our clients.
We have been trying to figure out a way to appoint a 3rd party to certify the asset/liability figures, but there are many risks involved. It would involve having us trust some unknown agent that could possibly just steal the rest of the holdings out from under us. Or, we could be accused of bribing the 3rd party to agree with our figures, and on and on. Trust is a real problem with an anonymous and irrevocable currency.
It is true that we could disclose all of the Bitcoin payment addresses we manage and let everyone look them up and track the lineage of the coins. This is also troublesome due to the way that we defragment small payments to keep the processing engine speedy. Also there are the moral implications of disclosing our client’s finances. We are sure that, unknowingly to us, that our processing system has been used for nefarious purposes.
A GIFT TO THE COMMUNITY
After the claims have all been filed and dealt with we will be releasing the entire MyBitcoin processing engine into the public domain. Our only hope is that the community can improve and adapt the software to all sorts of new and interesting Bitcoin-related things.
