The concept is a TF2 match up where users can place items as bets for winning a match
Okay never heard of TF2, carry on. |

Which government? Do you think it would all be over if only ONE government started regulating it?
No, of course not. But let's say the US government approves some law regarding virtual currencies that makes it really complicated for merchants in the US to accept bitcoins. The law could also be applied to US exchanges (they could forbid trading USD for bitcoins or demand higher fees). Now tell me, in this scenario, how much is a bitcoin worth a year from now? Not sure, but it'd probably be valued in EUR or YEN. |

is it an integer?
Interesting game theory here. Normally with one person doing multiple tries you just want to guess in the middle each time. But here when we only get one shot we don't necessarily want to give more information to the next guesser. Although I guess there is no rational basis for us not too.
It becomes a question of how long we should wait until we make a guess. later guesses have a higher expected return but at the investiture of the time watching the thread and waiting for other people to take guesses. What if that cavalier first guesser gets it right on the first try?
Yes it's an integer. One thing I didn't think about until after I'd already posted was that it seems people are holding back, waiting until near the end so that it's easier. But the problem with that strategy is, there can be only one winner... first post will get it (I should have put that in the rules list). So don't leave it too late to post a guess because someone else might post before you! Edit: I think to help solve this issue next time, the prize money should gradually decrease... to give people more incentive to guess early. |

Want to win 0.5 BTC? (Okay, I don't have much to give away, but this should be fairly simple).
All you have to do is guess a number between 0 and 100 (inclusive) by posting in this thread, then I will post HIGHER or LOWER.
Rules:
- Only 1 post/guess per member.
- MD5 of the number plus some other random things: e5c97082142b3d65ce55e5e36446577e (so you know I'm not cheating anyone and that the number has already been decided).

You can always report it to a moderator mate.
Well done, you just bumped a 3 day old thread and posted something thats already been posted. I'm fairly certain it's a side-effect of the newbie restrictions. |

How is having one http link that much faster than having your client download it?
I mean, what if you connect to specific, trusted nodes with the addnode switch... shouldn't some bitcoin nodes be just as fast to download from as an http link? For that you would need to know that there is an addnode switch, how to use it and you would need know IPs too add. Besides that, if you download it via http you can download a compressed archive of the blockchain, if you download it through the client you will get the blockchain snippet by snippet (uncompressed, if i'm not wrong). So the regular block chain isn't compressed at all? Why not? Isn't regular RLE pretty trivial to implement these days? Maybe some other reason. |

Here's a tip: If you want to buy or sell immediately, you will almost always get a worse price than just putting in a winning order and waiting.
By winning order, i mean if the lowest ask is $15, put one in for $14.99.
Or if the highest bid is $14, put in a bid for $14.01.
If you keep an eye on it and make sure to update your order whenever you're outbid/outasked, then more often than not you'll get a better price than if you have to trade RIGHT NOW.
Because if you just make sure yours is the best price (say $14.99), then eventually you'll catch an impatient buyer who wants to buy RIGHT NOW and doesn't want to just wait on the sidelines.

hahahaha this phrase is even funnier than your joke. I've got friends who laugh too high. They should quit that shit for the sake of their health. |

Or, almost as fast?

If you have 3.14 BTC to spend, and someone else has 10 EUR, and you agree to trade, then the exchange rate is calculated by:
3.14 / 10 = 0.314 BTC per EUR, or you can flip it and say 10 / 3.14 = 3.1847 EUR per BTC.

I hadn't been keeping up with the mybitcoin fiasco and had my pool payout still pointed to my wallet there. What happens to the bitcoins sent to that wallet since the mybitcoin went down. Will mybitcoin just keep accepting the BTCs as long as people keep sending them, or are they lost in bitcoin limbo.
They have no reason to be in 'limbo' as long as the wallet has access to those addresses, he can spend them. Or you could try contacting him but I don't see anyone else having much luck doing that lately. |

You can advertise on: bitcoinflower.com - only this site, but many visitors dailybitcoins.org - only this site, but many visitors and geotargeting operationfabulous.com - you can find several websites there (I think you can even place a button in your signature, without getting banned  ) Cool thanks! I actually looked into operation fabulous a couple of weeks ago while I was still lurking but saw it used that wallet which got hacked. It seems to be running again now. |

Yeah... doesn't really seem like that good a deal now that I think about it...  It might if you hold onto that bit cent for long enough. |
