Thanks for the answers, so keybase.io can not be used to sign a message and thus should stay out of this guide, agreed. I just did the first few dos and don'ts. Feel free to suggest more. I also found this very neat feature on the brainwallet page. It allows to create a link with the address, message and signature included. Creates a very long link obviously as it includes everything in plain text. exampleI think "Don't sign a message in a compromised device" should be in dos and don'ts. Brainwallet's this update looks cool. They have automated this instead of a button. So, maybe, new pic is needed. |

Can one resell GH/s on hashnest? What's their price per GH/s in BTC?
Yes, you can trade your ghs on the market. The price depends on what hardware you got your ghs - AntS2, AntS3, AntS4, AntS5 and UMISOO. For example price is from 0.00139000 Price/GHS on S5 and down to 0.00016497 Price/GHS on UMISOO. What is the advantage of choosing a hardware for buyers? Does the electricity cost or any other fees vary? |

The rates are very low. If you can't spend much on this, don't do pay per post style. You probably will be able to get some people if you make a fixed payrate per 1 or 2 weeks. Or increase your payrate.

It is quite possible that I don't see the entire picture here. But from what I can tell, the forum moderators are wanting to grrow some sort of organic network of trust where they don't have to moderate it, it basically self regulates based on participation of many people and their activities.
If this were true, why would Theymos add a feature such as exclusions allowing him and the highest ranking members in trust ratings to negate anyone adding some one to the default trust list whom he unilaterally chooses? They like to say they don't moderate trust and and don't get involved, but they clearly chose to over and over to get involved again in a very selectively applied way. Then they claim they are acting in an individuals capacity and not as a staff or vice-versa to absolve themselves of interference they claim doesn't happen. The trust system was supposedly meant to rate ones trading behavior to demonstrate who trades honestly. Over time it degraded into a weird political/popularity contest, then into mob rule. Does a trust system designed to bring honest traders to the top of the trust rankings need to have yet another way to give those at the top even more ability to exclude people to settle petty vendettas? They claim there is not enough people participating, but they make the standards so inclusive and nepotistical that only a select few are able to have any effect on the system. I have been trading here for over 3 years and have been trusted with thousands of dollars and have always fulfill my agreements with hundreds of traders, many of which I personally introduced to this forum. Yet according to Theymo's standards his system that supposedly ranks honest traders, I should not have a say. Theymos doesn't want a decentralized system, he wants to sit on top of the list and rule by decree. Saying again, this forum and trust system is centralized not decentralized. Trust system is designed to help others. People shouldn't judge people by looking trust rating but by looking trust feedback and reference. Trust feedback is necessary to know who to trust and who not to. Your saying tells you want to get into default trust list. I don't know why though. You still are trusted and can do trades. Just 1 trusted negative feedback doesn't make you scammer. People still trust you but somehow, your goal is to make Vod remove from default trust list like you stated in your thread or perhaps, to get rid of this system. What Xian01 says is more or less exactly what I argue for in the OP. I know that MZ thinks that default trust is saving the world, one noobie at a time, and this is almost certainly how the trust-rangers our there feel about themselves, but I'm not so convinced. First, if someone is willing to give all their money away without looking into who/why/where etc don't they simply deserve to learn that lesson so that they can be safer in the future? Isn't it the case that any protection they gain from the trust rangers is just temporary and delusional---ie, sooner or later they're going to have to start figuring out the world for themselves, right? I mean just because people are noobies to bitcointalk doesn't mean they aren't rational, self-controlling adults with the sense to decide who and who to not give money to. The idea that noobies are somehow incapable in a way that the rest of us aren't seems spurious to me.
Many noobs to Bitcointalk made many mistakes. Everytime, we may next noob won't do this but they do. You have been much longer than me and I am pretty sure you have seen these. Most of the persons in this forum doesn't have an answer to "who". They only have a username, which is not enough to trust a person. If they want to decied who to trust and who not to, there should be feedback about the person. They need some support. They will sooner or later studies this and will have the ability which they didn't have with which they can trade. Experience is way superior than knowledge. That's the difference here. I agree. The default trust list just creates a false sense of security and a feeling that they don't need to research their trading partner because there are red and green numbers. In reality all it does is create a protected class within this illusion of scam prevention.
Nope. We will have to make our own judgement, anyways. Trust system plays a role in judging. |

I'd like to see a third party service handle PMs (is there such a thing?)
I don't like this. It is better for admins to manage this than a third party. It is more harmful, I guess. There'd (probably) be a lot more features, encryption for privacy, and no one could accuse forum staff of reading PMs.
In-built encryption is no use. It can be decrypted manually by an admin. Telling users to submit a Bitcoin/PGP address whose private keys are accessible/owned by them will be good. So forum can encrypt messages with their public key. Users will have to install a client like Electrum(only one which support encrypt/decrypt messages) or any other standalone sign/verify and encrypt/decrypt client. Plus, it would free up the programmers to work on other features.
We will have to spend money on it and both amount will be equal. So these features in Epochtalk is better. |

Thanks for sending me BIT-X card, i added it to my account there, but I didn't order any.
Is this free as I am in first 10000 users or what? I prefer to use my card when it will have 3D enabled, so far it hasn't. Plus I am funding via BTC, just bought 18 GHS for 0.03 BTC, you guys are quite expensive, I hope you are worth it.
You were sent one as you were verified! There are no active monthly fees for the first 10,000 users, correct. Other fees still apply. Bit-x is doing really great and there are no competitors around.  ANX, AdvCash and WageCan are. |

I saw this in the API page of blockchain.info
Requests in 8 Hours: 39 (Soft Limit = 28800, Hard Limit = 28900)
Requests in 5 minutes: 1 (Soft Limit = 700, Hard Limit = 725)
Does anybody know what it means?
I plan to query every block generated then get all the transaction details, does that mean I can only query the blockchain data api once every 5 minutes? if there are many transactions in a block i want to query each transaction.
I don't understand why are you using receive payment API for this use. Can you please clarify? |

Use preev.com to check the value.
Current value: 1,248 Doges for 1BTC.
1,248? lol its 2191027 doge but is it XDG? Oops. My mistake. XDG is Doge. I think Preev represent it like that as BTC is also represented as XBT. The one I posted was kXDG, so 3 zeroes weren't shown. Current: 2,174,000 Doge per BTC. xdg? it was doge Doge is also known as XDG. I have said a probable reason above. https://www.google.com/search?q=xdg+btcHaha, if so I would be a rich man  Why don't you just take the current Doge price of 47 sats and devide it through 100 mln (100,000,000 / 47 = around 2,127,659 Doges). Use preev.com to check the value.
Current value: 1,248 Doges for 1BTC.

Thank you. Is there any limit? How many posts does it show? Within how much time does the post should be to consider it as "recent" if that's the limit?
There isn't a post limit to show. It shows newbie posts from last 2 hours. Thank you. Just what I wanted. thank you caki!!! just tested... really useful to check newbie quality posts... really a swiss knife for mods. nice catch cakir! Honestly, this shouldn't be added. This isn't a hidden feature. This can be enabled by going to "Forum Profile Information". [1][1] https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=profile;sa=forumProfile. |

FYI you are now on my trust list. Quickseller is not and will never be  but i keep Vod; although i dont share his opinion about ms keys (eg. EULAS are worth nothing in my country) my trust list in case someone is interested in it (suggestions welcome); i use trust depth 1: ... Luke-Jr ... ...I don't trust anyone that trusts Luke-Jr... I would suggest having any sort of Default Trust list something that should be Opt-In (read: They have to press a button or select a checkbox in their account preferences to enable Default Trust listings for their account) Ideally, each user should start with a blank trust list, and build it up themselves over time based on their own experiences here on the forums. We can't enforce this on newbies. Newbies don't know who to trust and who shouldn't. So default trust list is needed. When they understand more about this trust sytem, they will change their trust list. We shouldn't enforce them to change because there are many people who don't want to change and people who don't care. Persons who know about trust system, alter their trust list. * Here, Newbies refers to both noobs to Bitcointalk and noobs to trust system. |

You better ask any legit hospitals before asking these.  |

However, there seems to be near universal agreement that the actual text of the warning could be changed to both a) be more informative about the actual state of affairs and b) be more inviting to learn how to use the trust system for yourself.
Theymos, lets have "negative trust" warning changed to: "This person has received negative feedback from someone in your trust network." That message is far more reflective of the actual situation and provides an invitation to figure out exactly who is in your trust network and why.
+1. Changing trust network to trust list is better. We may have to face threads in Meta about trust network even if they know about trust list. I also suggest to put a small link near it which have a breif explanation about trust system.* * Borrowed from Marco's post. |

@Hobbastank: Good luck with that scammy behaviour. It was your luck that I denied this loan or else, you probably will scam and end up getting negative trust in almost all accounts of yours. loan of any amount suitable for my collertal which is a nike egift worth 300AED which is 81usd
Denied. |

http://pow88.com/0.004BTC\Ghs, maintenance 0$ - very cool offer! Does somebody use it? Scam? It is am interesting site. They are reselling miners and they provide loans. We can sell hash power in their market and it is good. However, referral bonus is 1% of their income per hour which doesn't look good. They might be Ponzi. |
