Seller: Enter Dwolla login information. (It will be stored using encryption.)
Trader Bot: Logs into your Dwolla account and retrieves all necessary information such as your account balance and displays it inside P2P Exchange.
Um, no.

First off, my original post detailing the p2p exchange was more speculative than a definitive method. I was asking people to put forth their constructive criticisms and helpful ideas. "Um, no." is neither a constructive criticism nor a helpful idea. Things have changed considerably since my original posting thanks to people who gave their helpful ideas. I will either substantially edit or remove completely, the original thread in the days to come and post the new details.
Well, is there any solution to how to guarantee that both parties send what they need to send?  Because a bot logging into people's accounts and screenscraping is out of the question.

The answer is yes and you will be hearing about it in the near future after it's been tested.
Good. I am very curious as to what the solution is.

It would probably be a good idea to try and get organizations like EFF and others on board with the idea of Bitcoin and defending it.

Thanks for the link Terry.

Solution:

Use BitInstant to do an anonymous cash deposit at one of the four big banks (you just drop off cash to the special account - no name/ID is needed typically). You'll get an exchange account funded (which should be set up with pseudonymous information) within an hour. Then buy the coins. Already at this stage, nobody knows you have them. Then, follow the steps you outlined, move them around in different amounts, on different days. Use tor or a Starbucks in the next town over.

Irony about this strategy is that it's the US Government's own cash bills which make it possible Smiley
Your anonymous cash deposit might not be so anonymous if they can link the deposit to a specific date/time and get surveillance camera data. Tongue
For full disclosure: Erik is affiliated with "BitInstant", which gets a commission every time you use their service, so his opinion might be fairly biased.
I thought he was associated with CryptoXChange?  Is he also associated with BitInstant?

Couldn't you just use "sendmany" to send to the recipient and back to your own address?  (I haven't tried this)
Yes, you can.

Except you don't know which input sendmany is going to use, so you don't know how much to send back.
True, I stand corrected. So with the (unmodified) Satoshi client, the best answer is you really can't.

also ill pay 5 BTC to anyone who full helps me understand why this things gets 500% eff when my 7970 only gets 99%...
kano already explained it above.  It has to do with your mining software and the pool you're using, NOT the hardware you're using.  Now send him his 5 BTC. Smiley

Are you willing to drop 3 BTC on it?
I'll let you know if I haven't found someone else or made it myself.

Thanks.
Sure.  Or if you want, I can share my IRC class/object with you (for a donation of course Tongue) and all you would have to do is add the part to authenticate with gribble and send the rating.

77  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [Request] CryptoXChange fee via API on: February 15, 2012, 06:53:15 PM
I'd like to see the current fee through the API. I've noticed that you have been changing the fee a lot recently with a 0% promotion currently running, there is however no API call to retrieve the fee so when performing various calculations/trading via the API, my figures will not reflect what the true buy/sell cost will be... this is unless I have logged onto your website.

Thanks
Wouldn't it make more sense to send a request like this directly to them?
78  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [BOUNTY] 0.9BTC for a PHP IRC bot on: February 15, 2012, 06:50:42 PM
There are tons of these IRC bot scripts, you just need to repurpose one of them to do what I ask.
There are?  When I needed some IRC automation code in PHP a while back, I couldn't find anything worth looking twice at.  So I rolled my own code.

I could do this for you, but It'd be significantly more than 0.9 BTC.

Out of curiosity, what are the exact steps to authenticate with gribble and rate the user?
79  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Decentralized Exchange on: February 15, 2012, 04:02:10 PM
Have you guys looked at bitcoin.de ?
Fiat money transfers are person-to-person, while bitcoins are held in escrow by the site.
I believe this is a sensible solution.

What happens if after the fiat person-to-person transfer, the seller claims they haven't received any fiat and the Bitcoins are returned to them?

Someone should let him know that this:
