Looks very nice. Very nice indeed!
Would you consider the option to add other currencies besides dollars in raised and goal ?
It seems to already have BTC, USD, EUR, GBP, CNY, and CAD. |

I was going to mention the generation chart. Seems I actually did mention it.
Where did you get the $39.91 peak?
Your conclusion is correct.
What was the highest point then? I was just looking off the wiki for some moments in bitcoin history. Thanks for the input That chart makes it look like it didn't break $32 on gox. I'm sure it did elsewhere, but I don't know what should count really, not that it is super important, $39 is just a lot more than I usually hear as the figure. |

I run http://www.btckink.com/. It took about half a day to code, and has paid for itself several times over. The moral is, you don't need to wait for porn sites to start accepting Bitcoin — you can do it for them! Nice, but why 1-3 days? I assume that means it is manual, but 24 hours ought be more than enough right? Showing current prices in btc would be cool. |

Division by two is very simple and clear to code, that's something.

Is it a checking account? What if you made a check out to cash and someone brought it in to your bank? Are they really not going to honor that? I really don't know. But it seems like big news if a lot of customers can't write their own money out as checks over $3k.
Wait, what do you mean "not my bank, but a local one" usually "my bank" just means you have an account with them. Do you not have an account with this bank?

Suggestion (from the competition, but whatever): I often use my phone to pay things and scan QR codes from my computer. To do that I end up having to take your address and pasting it into blockchain.info to get a QR code. Also, there is a URI standard for QR codes that can specify the amount as well: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/URI_SchemeExample: bitcoin:1NS17iag9jJgTHD1VXjvLCEnZuQ3rJED9L?amount=20.3X8Just tested and works with Blockchain android app. You can use this to specify the amount as well which makes it easier for users like me. I just scan and hit send. That is a good idea, thanks. |

I just raised limits by about 5x. You can bet .01BTC to win 19.70BTC right now.

In an ideal world, I would have a “checking account” denominated in Freicoin where I receive my paycheck and from which I draw on for daily expenses, and a “savings account” denominated in Bitcoin. Does that make sense?
No. What problem would it solve to have a “checking account” denominated in Freicoin and not in bitcoin? Depending on the assumption that they somehow manage to force miners to include transactions: No transaction fees, miner income is paid from the demurrage. Right, that is a valid point. In the future when most bitcoins are mined miners will have to be compensated with transaction fees. But I'm far from convinced that the transaction fees would be so high that it would make sense to have a "checking account" denominated in Freicoin. That gives reason to mine, but no reason to include your feeless tx. Maybe the equilibrium is lower fee, but it isn't clear why that would be. Big flaws I see, as mentioned, people will just opt for bitcoin and supposing many opt for it for some reason 4.4% of the economy will always be dedicated to mining, which is outrageous long term. I don't think anyone can know in advance the exact right amount, but for a world dominating currency my guess is that .1% is more than enough. |

I think playing via email would be more enjoyable than through TOR.
Heh, now I'm thinking about email poker. You could have a site or sites that helped manage your hands, but make it all work via email in case the helper sites got shut down. Super insecure right? Have to train everyone to use GPG. I'm not seriously doing this, it would be ridiculous. Though slow poker in general ought get more love, in a studying sort of way. I guess no one wants to play with people who are obviously training though, would be a pretty flimsy ecosystem.

I want an Oreo type cookie that you roll open to reveal the private key.
Don't eat that cookie!

The Hat-Trick Jackpot tournament is ending which means the full amount is up for grabs instead of just half. The game is at 1am ET and more info is at http://sealswclubspromotions.blogspot.com/There is a new Midnight Rebuy game at midnight eastern time. It costs 100+8 chips to enter and if you bust in the first half hour you can rebuy for 100 chips. You can also rebuy whenever you are below the starting amount. Seals chips are bitmills. 1000 chips = 1BTC |

ssaCEO, I don't disagree with what you've said, but here's the thing:
They can't make a bitcoin poker site illegal unless they make "free" poker sites illegal as well. To do that, they would have to legitimize BTC as a valid currency and as "real" money. That's the last thing they want to do... so a BTC poker site would be tough to shut down on those grounds, simply because it would open a different can of worms that no one in the current financial industry wants opened.
Not necessarily true. Some of the state laws I've read indicate that gambling anything of value is illegal online, which would most certainly include Bitcoins. Still, the government essentially saying that they are worried about Bitcoin and Bitcoin poker and that Bitcoin is valuable would be pretty huge. |

Who gives a flying FUCK about the legality of Bitcoin poker? The online poker players sure as shit don't! If there is anything holding those players up from playing Bitcoin Poker, it's their faith in Bitcoin itself.
Throw the site up on Tor, fuck the government, and make boatloads of money.
And don't tell me that couldn't happen. The article I wrote on Silk Road gets over 20,000 hits a month, and growing!
Really I hate to say that things are impossible, but poker behind TOR is pretty close. Does anyone know any gambling games behind TOR now? Simple ones would be possible, but I suppose there isn't much demand. Though I suppose SD can be played over TOR! And the site could be reposted there easily I'd think. |

Technically... the rest of them. But really just a few times the normal amount in a day will send difficulty skyrocketing and bring it back to the average amount quickly.
