Nobody is changing their mind whether or not to buy or sell.

Sorry about that. I wasn't intended to have a naked person at all. It's just that I didn't get around to selecting the clothing.

Blimmerhead, did you ignore this thread on purpose? (Sent a PM)

Those who are members of the Bitcoin Mutual Aid Association, please vote on proposal

http://fivegrinder.com/group/Bitcoin%20Mutual%20Aid%20Association/Bounty%20for%20Association%20Site

The budget for the mutual aid association is only 10 BTC, which is surely insufficient. However, I don't want to drain the treasury of the organization, so we're raising two members' worth of dues every cycle.

The last proposal we voted on didn't get enough vote, so I was left donating my own money to the CCC.(Still working that)

On one thought, the democratic structure of five-grinder could leave our treasury drained due to people voting themsleves money. So once our organization's site is up, we'll work on a new governance structure.

Do the real world have dark pools too?

I am a newbie starting my "career" as an artist. So be warned if my art come out noobish.

For my first art piece, I am doing a theme called The Mystery of Satoshi Nakamoto. I only work on an art piece for about an hour each day, when I don't have classes.(That's normally 5 days a week)

Here is the current art:

This is an experiment in micropatronage. I am also making my artwork "unlicensed". You can do whatever with the artwork, include selling it. Also, please do attribute stuff to me. It's just the right thing to do. There should be a line at top of the wall that say "Unlicensed by Kiba".


Miscellany:

(Nothing at the moment)

I am trying to make it work with mtgox merchant service.

I am also reskinning the site. Can't afford a designer.

I believe it was just transaction spamming.

Your commission fee are in some kind of weird limbo.

It's a distraction from the downloading process.


Here's how I would get new users:

1. Offer free download sponsored by a user.
2. After he finish download, then you could introduce bitcoin, somehow.

You should put the bitcoin facuet stuff AFTER the user is done downloading.

I revised my sketch again. Sorry for the crappy hands but I hope you like the beginning of my GPU cluster scenery.

You'll have to wait until the next several art evolution before I start drawing really good hands. I am a beginner, after all.

More incentives for little people to mine, the more CPU power we get.

Then let brainstorm possible incentive scheme for people to mine.

Maybe transactions should be decoupled from mining somehow?

We are doing fine at the moment. We just saw a few new services opening up.

Ideas are worthless until they're executed.

Pay off your loans? Isn't it taxpayer's money? (I know, tax is theft and all that, but we shouldn't be parasite on taxpayers)

I am assuming we're in the starting period. It seem very very very slow growth. Then we hit a period, then BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM. We follows the J-curve until growth taper off.


The hard part is maintaining momentum until we get to the growth spurt.

I am more concerned about how many computers does it take to overcome the network.
