Both of those look like very promising applications. I'll check them out in more detail later on...
Sounds like ubitio.us does exactly what I want already, but it doesn't make mention of what the commissions are, etc.
iirc it has few features and high commissions, but since it is open source maybe you could add features, promote, get high volume and charge less. I don't think it had search of any kind, you had to be linked or go through every item, and even had to modify the url to do that. Maybe that's not the purpose though and I'm thinking of a different kind of site. A site with lots of various content but with some of it for pay. Oh, another good feature to have is "open this for everyone when X BTC is paid to 1j4kju..." |

Make it like a regular file hosting site with options to gate with bitcoin payment. Maybe have a "one time" per payment option and a "permanent access" option. Uploader sets price, but you take a % and have a min fee.
If you emphasize uploader accounts people could use their "channel" to build a rep by posting some free content and some gated content.
Are you going to police content?

Indeed. This quote is interesting: "To get around stringent state regulations, Bitcoin firms might switch from acting as a floating exchange, which TradeHill was, to a fixed rate exchange, Matonis says. Floating exchanges hold customer funds while they match buy and sell orders. In this sense, they act as financial institutions. Fixed rate exchanges do not. They simply buy and sell Bitcoins like a commodity. Such an exchange would be exempt from state money transmitter regulations, Matonis says." Interesting indeed. It wouldn't even necessarily have to be a fixed rate either... just so long as the entity isn't holding on to customer funds. Just base the price on some funky supply/demand curve, where the price will move X amount up for each Bitcoin bought, and X amount down for each Bitcoin sold. The market will naturally keep it mostly balanced, albeit likely biased one direction or the other compared to a floating exchange. If you are going to have a fixed rate that changes, why not just make it change to what it will cost you to replace the coins/dollars plus a fee? As long as there is one actual market even if it has onerous AML crap anyone who can trade there can run their own "not really an exchange" site. |

More accurate translation: Do we already have a thread going where we could discuss this topic appropriately? Perhaps there's not much more to discuss, but maybe there is ... I definitely still don't quite understand the "regression theorem".
Maybe you could create a new thread just for this video so we can discuss it? What do you think? |

...I have my own process of making this deal without risking both sides.

2nd) : I am only one taking risk here...
I dunno what you are up to, but it smells. |

Actually hurting people because they say others should be hurt is... ironic?
And how is this actually going to go down, will there be an intermediate step where a chief tells minions to go do the arrest/kill as needed? Maybe the minions get paid (200BTC?) too?

This has been taken care of, but I'd still be interested to know who is in Vegas and might want to trade either way in the future.

The BTC you would get by causing a collision would be a lot less than if you just mined lol
Yeah, the vast majority of the time that you find one of these incredibly unlikely collisions the address is empty anyway. |

Hi, I seem to understand that public keys are generated randomly by the clients without any check that they already exist/are used, "just because" the chance that 2 or more clients generate the same key is "almost" zero. If correct, could this be a risk for anyone who wants to receive or transfer a serious amount of BTC? And, it would not be the case to implement a check when generating new keys?
A check is not possible. Your software doesn't know everyone else's private or public keys, only a subset of public ones. You can't even reliably restrict people from making duplicates of the known ones (in the chain) because Bitcoin is open source, people could just choose to keep the key by removing the check. You have a much much greater chance of dying on the way to a bank and never getting your money than losing it to this insanely unlikely coincidence. If you aren't very convinced of the astronomically small likelihood of a collision use vanitygen to try to make 10 chars of a key match and then try 15. |

Would you like to tell us about a site where we can trade bitcoin options?

I believe intersango had about a year with no fees, everyone didn't move there. As was mentioned, the depth is the problem. Instead of having no or low fees they could write a bot to make market and hedge on Gox essentially just moving the action over. Gox gets the fee from them, but that will end if people prefer Intersnago service. It's clear that Gox has bad service, but we don't really know what Intersango service will be like when it is 10x bigger.

Now that's a good idea. The various meetup threads could go there too.
Being the one who started the Chicago restaurant thread, I agree. I thought of the same once I saw the Montreal and San Diego threads. Please consider not burying a newly created thread too deep on this forum. ~Bruno~ You mean you think it's a good idea, but want your thread to stay in general discussion? Maybe we leave one thread there (stickied for a while?) where people can announce their Local thread, "We're still meeting in Orlando at Whiskey Dick's, here is our thread." |
