Thanks for the info.
For lower values you can expect the fees to grow, personally I couldn't find a reasonable way to do it. Let me know if you do Smiley
I'll be sure to do that.

1. Accurately predict the time of the next sell off ( > 1000 coins) - 1 Bitcoin
2. Accurately predict the volume of the sell off - 1 Bitcoin
3. Accurately predict where the price will temporarily settle before it hits $1.7 - 1 Bitcoin

1. Time: 38 hours from the time of this post
2. 8,500 BTC
3. Price will settle at $2.15 for several days to a week, then will drop to $1.90 for about a week, then will drop to $1.70.  There may be brief uptrends during this movement.

The referral link part has been edited out.  See this post as to why I edited it.
Yep, the referral link is still there in the URL, but not in the text of the link.

casascius could theoretically have the private keys. Never trust that he doesn't because there's no good reason to
Well, it's not like you're going to keep your life savings in casascius physical bitcoins.
805  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would you buy a 0.1 BTC Casascius Physical Bitcoin as a giveaway? on: November 19, 2011, 05:48:54 AM
This has got me thinking about all kinds of things, such as embedding a metal strip with the private key inside the coin, and you could break a seal to pull it out.  Or micro RFID chips (that can only be read from millimeters away) embedded inside.  I don't know if/how RFID would work with a metallic coin though. Nothing very practical though....

Meh, he made offer, but didn't say when he will pay.  Cut him some slack and give him a couple days.

1.Taxation is the moral equivalent of theft.
2. The draft is the moral equivalent of kidnapping and slavery.
3. The government is the most successful organized criminal gang in a particular area.
I don't disagree. But consider the following:

If bitcoin is to survive, the average person is going to need to be supportive of it.  If you talk about all the ways bitcoin can be used to break laws, every word you say will be used as propaganda against bitcoin and the average person, not really knowing any better, will form an opinion against bitcoin. 

Your words as a Bitcoin supporter could be used to undermine the credibility of Bitcoin movement.  "See Bitcoin supporters promote criminal tax evasion. It should be shut down".

A.k.a. The fun but long-winded game of trying to buy BTC with USD. Smiley

My main question is what is the best way to buy LR with USD?  Best can be defined as "with the lowest fees and in a reasonable amount of time".  What services do you use to buy LibertyReserve?

Thanks!

Submit 1 bitcoin, wait for 2 others to do this, and double!
Everyone does this, everyone benefits.

And it has already over 86, i doubled 5 times!

Join now, and get in the money rakes.

I submitted months ago, twice.  No payout.  As far as I am concerned it is a scam.  
It might be, I don't know.  The owner could easily assuage that fear by listing all the payout addresses and linking them to blockexplorer.com.  That being said, what number were you in line.  Two people have to deposit for every payout, so if it's at 80 deposits now, that means only the first 40 have been paid.  If you're number 50, you have to wait for 20 more deposits.
812  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would you buy a 0.1 BTC Casascius Physical Bitcoin as a giveaway? on: November 18, 2011, 09:47:14 PM
Yes, I think part of the allure is that they contain actual bitcoin value that you can use.

I suppose you're right.

What if I offered a roll of 50 blanks, plus 50 printed gold foil stickers with the bitcoin addresses on them.  I preload, or you preload, but either way, you stick them on.  I actually have gold foil round stickers (same size as holograms) that have an invisible layer that can be printed on.  If I don't have to apply the stickers by hand, the price goes way down.

All of these are materials I have today, right now.  Minting new coins, that'll be a couple months.
I would have no problem applying some stickers.  But if the end user applies the stickers and/or loads the bitcoin value, then there would be no guarantee that the only copy of the private key is the copy on the coin.  In other words, the BTC value of the coin becomes very suspect in terms of using one as actual payment. But I suppose that would be ok, given that these would mostly be used for promotional purposes.  Also, are we talking about re-purposing the 1BTC blanks for this or the new aluminum coins?

The thread title really is misleading.
814  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bitcoin doubler, submit and wait. on: November 18, 2011, 09:01:56 PM
Also the sldoubler.com site gives me a white page (no output).
815  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bitcoin doubler, submit and wait. on: November 18, 2011, 08:59:21 PM
heh, why not just host it on Bitcoinduit..
... because it appears to be down?

A roll of 50 1BTC blanks, I could sell for as little as 10BTC.
So that would basically be 50 blanks like the "Broken 1 BTC" that you currently sell?
818  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I will be interviewed about Bitcoin on more than 100 Radio stations! on: November 18, 2011, 05:44:24 PM
@BadBear - I agree 100%.
819  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: sendmany andanvatage? on: November 18, 2011, 05:43:29 PM
The 0.5 client seems to be able to send BTC to more than one address with one transaction (via the UI). Does anyone know if that uses 'sendmany'?
Oooh, neato.  It must use sendmany - that's the only way I've ever heard of to send to multiple addresses in the same transaction.
I haven't actually tried it, but on the "send" tab, you can add multiple recipients with different amounts of BTC.

7. We hope, They will end the government's control of the money supply.
In the future, this may be able to limit the government's control of the money supply.

FTFY.
