Any random question in the world and youll receive a key to a new Bitcoin!!

Can I ask where do I not get scammed?  Grin

Don't worry about his answer, I've tried it with a free VOIP service, with a static number and free credits 20minutes ago. The truth is you want get nothing. I would worry more about the text charge if youre using your phone. His idea is for you to text, then you forget, months later he can then advertise to you.

"This faucet allows claiming at 500 satoshi, which is 8hrs on landofbitcoin. It also says I should try 5000 satoshi if I don't receive the btc within 3 days. Okay...., apparently after a week then their maybe a technical problem"
625  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Make bitcoin with browser. on: April 09, 2015, 02:52:03 AM
It would be a pretty good idea, if this was a chrome extension. However with .NET, if your building your own browser, it would be vulnerable to security threats (since the default is IE) which again is less portable compared to a chrome extension that can wrong in lots of Desktop OS.

Everyone is forgetting that the source also needs to be made public, and free for individual compiling, since a .NET app with administrative access is as powerful as any Trojan horse.

I would be going out of my league if I paid 1 satoshi for the Foundation
I guess they could pay me 10btc to take it?

Haha yes it's extraordinarily improbable   Tongue

Actually it's very probable.

Let's scientifically think about it.

You exists in a planet (Earth)

We are in a region of our universe which allows intelligent life forms. Now we know there's a large amount of finite number of planets. If we only focus on our region of the universe, out of the millions of galaxies, what's to say we want find another galaxy which contains a star (the sun) that allows intelligent life form? Then again if we can't even travel  beyond our galaxy (Milky Way)  what's to say other intelligent life forms can travel to us?

Let's not include parrellel universes into this, since they would also be considered as 'alien' it means there's an infinite number of universes, which means there's an infinite number of everything (including you)

TCP/IP is just too complicated for the average person to use.

Yet here we are, with every random computer illiterate happily surfing the web.

Oh and by the way, fiat money and our current monetary system is way, WAY too complicated for the average person to even remotely grasp.

I hardly think the average person has ever heard of TCP/IP but hey, we still managed to get 2+billion people online  Shocked
631  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is regulation really coming to Bitcoin ? on: April 08, 2015, 11:33:24 PM
Let's think about this rationally.


For regulation to come to Bitcoin, miners would need to accept any new software with altered code... If they don't accept, then I guess there's no regulation (which is most likely)

Alternatively individual Bitcoin services could be pressured, like what's happening to coinbase. Similar like Silk Road, if other services choose not to be regulatated, they could simply go underground. If you've already created the website scripts, any Bitcoin service could switch to a new domain within minutes.

So like what's happening here in the UK, since government wants to accept and tax Bitcoin businesses, I think they would all be forced to be regulated, which comes with a portfolio of advantages or face criminal charges... Unless they go underground as previously stated.

I don't think it's too complicated for the average person to use, I believe it's meant to be integrated in to services, which then extends its features to the average person. Sort of how mail providers manages everything to do with SMTP so you can simple login, compose and send an email within seconds...

Bitcoin is neither.

It's digital GOLD
634  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / A message to inBitweTrust and the community, for a decentralised Bitcoin Foundation on: April 06, 2015, 07:05:23 AM
I guess there is no need for a Foundation or a Body. There should just be an address (or addresses) for tipping core devs. Many would contribute a bit (myself included) and people with vested interest or big holdings in Bitcoin would do it too, as it is to their best interest.

The rest is up to miners and nodes. Core devs release updates, and the users decide.

I don't know if I agree with this. In order to attract and keep talent you need to insure there is a least a minimum amount of job security and vested interest in maintaining an open source repository. I don't know if our ecosystem is large and diverse enough to have enough competing and a diversity of private companies funding core development at this stage.

What you are suggesting is essentially the model that the libbitcoin/unsystem implementation is following and while I fully support such endeavor, one has to be honest that it still needs a lot of work and development to mature and the lack in funding and organization is hurting this from being accomplished. Tips alone don't seem to be enough.

A message to inBitweTrust, for a decentralised Bitcoin foundation, powered by the Bitcoin community

Firstly, instead of having a group of people deciding the future of Bitcoin, I believe a forum would be better. Let's take simple machines forum as an example. With a bit of tweaking, we could add a "New feature" section. When a new topic is created, a new poll is also simultaneously created.
At the end of the month, we would all be able to have a head-to-head and select 10 new features, which will be added to a list of updates to be made.

Secondly, developers need to have a verified account linked to their Bitcoin forum account.
Every year, they would make an appeal to the community, and the community would consequently vote for their pay that year. Once this has been completed, an address to fund the developers would be listed. After they have been paid, any additional payments are carried to the next year.

Finally, funding Bitcoin related projects. This would be achieved by have a Bitcoin address, which is openly displayed and recognised by everyone. It would be controlled by everyone, simultaneously being controlled by no one. Like paying developers, if a project requires funding, they would need to create a new topic and compete head-to-to for the top 10 winning spot each month.

For this to effectively work, each member (user) would be required to have over 100 comments on the forum, which would prevent spamming. I have weighed all the other options available, and I believe this would be better welcomed by the community, instead of a body of rich, opportunistic representatives. Projects which require funds would have a 5 day window each month to create the necessary topic, which contains the organisations name, Bitcoin address, images and the topic content.

Sad part is how all these crypto news sites promoted the coin as a new challenger to bitcoin.  Wonder if they got leocoin as payment for writing a article.

+1
I really hope they did Grin

you can declare btc dead as much times as your heart desires. I've said this many times, Bitcoin is the technology implementation of gold. It's limited, requires miners (no pun intended) protected from corrupt entities, and prevents Qe, these all mean that the value will only get stronger, and stronger as its embedded in more services.

Any proof of who you say you are?

I wouldn't want to wait and find out if it's true
What do you mean? That he won't be verifying (as it is a lie?) and waiting would be pointless or that it doesn't matter.

I do agree that he should verify his statements "(as it is a lie?)," but personally if I did have any Paycoins I would get a head start and begin converting to btc, which seems relatively safe, before his stament is officially verified. If his statement does turn out to be false, it wouldn't be a hassle reverse my actions and convert my btc back into Paycoins. I really wouldn't take chances on anything that isn't bitcoin at this moment in time.
