There should be a chat box, on the forum or at least on a different page within bitcointalk. If not a chatbox, then som sort of IRC. I believe this would enrich the bitcointalk community.

Add your reasons below, and it will be added to the list 1Paypal doesn't allow it is a pretty strong motive...
2A. Susceptible to charge back so not good for trades involving bitcoin. B. Very High fees
3Less anonimity.
4If PayPal suspects that the user is trading with bitcoins, they freeze the account and hold the funds.
5Paypal needs to die, don't let them make any more fees.
6A. PayPal doesn't like bitcoin, as the bitcoin network is in direct competition to it. B. They will ban accounts that have anything to do with Bitcoins.

This is where biometric technolgy would become useful. well, at least if i understand what you're suggesting, it can only be accomplished using this sort of technolgy. Then again, its still possible for users to simply use the service once and abandon it?

Like me, most other people have already fled Facebook, atleast after the snowden revelations.
The question is, what other non-US based (possibly decentralised & easy to use) services one could use, to communicate with family members? Especially elderly family members, who ain't good with technology

Can you give out negative effects if Bitcoin is regulated?
First of all, it will become like other things. And that's not good. Secondly, it will lose all that is fascinating about it. Don't forget anonymity. I'm sure there's alot of people who would love to get rid of this feature.

Now that you've adopted bitcoins, discovered its interesting uses, could you imagine a stable world without Bitcoin?

This is one thing I hate about BTC. People can look at all your BTC movements. You've got to have several wallets and avoid making large transactions not to have some voyeurs creeping.
One of bitcoins most iconic features, is transparency. I really don't see any harm done by this, unless you would rather prefer a centralised, closed-system, where someone hands you a software/coin and tells you its trustworthy. Wow this is amazing. I wonder where its coming from exactly.
I was hoping for answers, closely tailored in response to the above topic.

I'm not sure if we'll ever know what it'll feels like to invest a billion into bitcoin, but what can one do once the price starts to crash to £166 GBP/ Per btc. Take a look at this address for example: 39ngTt6DWQRUbzjmx6ucxz7pPvQcm52CL3 managing over $1.4B worth of bitcoins. Several questions popup such as "What if the price declines below £100?" "How would they be able to swiftly sale the bitcoins?" And then the thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=839314.0 comes into handy. Was bitcoin just a bump, to be dropped?

We'll hopefully begin testing during summer

Hey guys, I've been working on a collection of projects for the past couple of months, which i hope might be finished before summer 😄 #ProjectBigBang and shown as one massive SaaS service. For the most part, I've been using my own idea of a decentralised system to rebuild Services such as http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-atm-map/ a user managed map, and POS retailer, and end user features, which is partially designed for user in LEDC countries, with little to no access to smartphones. Some full screenshots on our progress http://imageshack.com/a/img661/9220/3chdjg.jpghttp://imageshack.com/a/img540/5539/5jJ9FC.jpghttp://imageshack.com/a/img661/7420/YFc5zV.jpghttp://imageshack.com/a/img673/7113/HoeQ9P.jpghttp://imageshack.com/a/img538/8614/uDQAtz.jpghttp://imageshack.com/a/img538/3250/ERffrl.jpgI've had some eager people wanting to join, then flee once they've seen how much motivation/task is actually required of them. It would be nice to have some friends, who would be willing to give a hand, and actually get this running before summer. It would also be great if you have any development experiences too 😄 Anyways, please inbox me, let's see how things workout

What type of firm do you operate?
There's zero reason why digital currencies should be AML exempt if you're exchanging fiat for them.
Were I to start a used tampon exchange, if pounds were involved I'd have to do exactly the same. It's a fact of life for everyone.
That's the problem, users would be exchanging with each other, in a decentralised format. I do not want to be forced to centralise our system. So i'm guessing It's a comply, or you're out of business sort of thing?

"the government's plan to apply anti-money laundering (AML) regulations to digital currency exchanges." As a possible UK-based firm, this would impact me hugely! I'm not saying this isn't a good idea, however, isn't the purpose of Bitcoin to get away from the government control, fiat currencies, corruption, and taxes? How will they go about regulating me?

We all know, and can understand how volatile it can be to store crypto currencies in a wallet for long periods of time. This is not to say that it's not the same for fiat currencies, but wouldn't it be useful to have subsidary crypto currencies, which represents a market value of our current crypto currencies? Of course it would have to be authorizd for use, by the government which it consigns, but think about the bigger picture. A decentralised reality, where capitalised assets held by individuals, could be easily and precisely accounted for, where the future of countries does not rely on overpowered, corrupt individuals or banks, who farelessly undertake risky investments, on-behalf of the few, deprived individuals. In other words, imagine a decentralised future, where we wouldn't have to skip from one crypto currency, to another or be forced to keep our crypto finance/profits in our chosen crypo currency.
This is just a daily thought, which intriged me. I would love to hear your opinons. Hopefully we could move on fro here.

Without MySQL queries, it can be done in less than 10 - 15 php lines.
It really is that simple, there's no need to exaggerate the complexity of tasks.

You can't send messages, when sending bitcoins to an address. However, if the users registered on your website, using c#, you can make an encrypted http or https call to the webserver, with an extra parameter for sending messages, images,..... Which can be viewed/shared if the receiver and sender have their block chain.info wallet on your website. Pretty simple
P.S.
If you could add a message, it would be available not only to the reciever, but to everyone who ever explores the blockchain and decodes the message. So I would stick to the first method.

General things to keep in mind with your DB. Make sure no MYSQL injection is possible, secure ALL user input. Any most importantly encrypt passwords and maybe even emails with SHA256. This means if the hacker gets in your database he wont know the users real passwords and emails which he could use to log into other sites if they use the same password for multiple sites. Please spend the money on a quality tester so that your site and money is safe, you should not cheap out on security.
The security is bigger than that. Everything except names are encrypted or hashed (AES 196bit, sha1, sha256) on a different database separate from the server, and another client, connected via client-server model to backup data which cannot be encrypted. In this day and age where every business is getting hacked, you can never be too secure.

We're working on NyeFe, which is similar to bitpesa and robocoin, however cheaper, allows the use of Visa, debt card, includes user stores (similar to eBay) and additional payment methods.
We need extra web developers to push the project, so it can be release in less than 4 months. Penetration testers are need to exhaust our security, so we can identify security breaches, sooner, rather than later.
