Instead of making 5 useless posts, newbies should be forced to read and type "I understand" under 5 FAQ questions, one of which is above.

Perhaps i skimmed to quickly, but I did not find the reference to $50 a pound.
0.17*146*453/200 = $56 |

I don't know if this is good news or bad news, but it is certainly a big WTF regarding Japanese banks..: 11:05 < sturles> I noticed on the forum that Japanese domestic transfers come
from a new bank. I keep watching for reports of international
wires from a new bank as well. That would be a very good sign.
11:08 <@MagicalTux> sturles, the new bank we use for Japanese transfers is a
domestic only bank
11:16 < sturles> Oh. :-(
11:18 <@MagicalTux> they're the first bank we've seen in JApan that can do
domestic transfers without the need for faxes
Fax! In 2013! For a simple domestic transfer! Can you even buy fax machines any more? Must be years since I saw one of those. No wonder even Japanese transfers were slow during high volume periods. People still think SWIFT transfers from the same banks are fully automated? I wouldn't trust a bank that allows to transfer my money based solely on a fax message. Nothing is easier to forge than fax. |

I guess the fact that Dooglus was fully divested means that for some reason I personally cannot understand he "lost faith" in math, and he gave up on the idea of recouping losses from Nakowa. Maybe that was one of the reasons he decided to mess up with our best customer ever, while crippling the expected profits by taking max profit to 1/4 while investors that didn't divest were on HEAVY losses.
Site owner has much more to lose than average investor, so his decision is understandable. Besides, there is always a non-zero probability of a bug or a server hack, and whale's win streak odds were quickly approaching that limit. |

Risk perception of a casual investor who has only few BTC invested is very different from risk perception of site owner, or of an investor who put his life savings into the site. Hope the risk selection feature will be implemented soon.

Let's see, the "whale" made 46000 bets.
Probability to be in + after such amount of bets, with 1% house edge, is about 1.4%.
I would say probability that game is rigged, either by site owner, or by a hacker gaining access to the server, is higher than that. Make your bets ...

I have 257 scanned JPG images from a family archive, each image should be cut in four and each of 4 parts should be rotated by 90, -90 or 180 degrees. Information loss, such as JPG re-compression, should be avoided if possible. One way to do that is to use JPG lossless crop and lossless rotate in IrfanView. Payment will be sent after work is done. We can do it in small batches, if you don't trust me. For example, you process 10 images, I send you (10/257) * <agreed price> BTC. Please quote your price and delivery time estimate. My estimate it should be around 3-4 hours of work and ~0.8 BTC. Bidding will end 24 hours from now. |

>> Lol, even the worst website for wannabe-traders explains in the first steps / lessons that you should not trade with emotions.
What is trading for then, if not for some adrenalin?

tl;dr Price affects hashrate, hashrate doesn't affect price.
And I think it's the other way around: diff increases means more capital invested in mining -> harder to launch 51% attack -> currency more secure -> people believe in it -> price rises more money invested -> more incentive to invest in development and infrastructure -> price rises more money invested -> more vocal proponents -> more propaganda -> price rises |

I would bet their are more people in the prison system/parole than the population of th least populated state.
I don't have a source but its a guess...
Any one want to google the info?
If you google that, there will be a permanent record of you googling that, and at some future point of time you will be imprisoned for Unauthorized Surveillance On National Security Institutions |

Life in US is getting more scary by the day. They should make a rule that for every new law - two old laws should be abjudicated.
