I'm not sure you guys are doing it right, but I may be misunderstanding your goal.
If you want to move around BitStamp IOUs, other don't need to (I would go as far as saying shouldn't) trust you, they need to trust the issuer.
This is very important otherwise the IOUs being moved may not be redeemable on BitStamp, and even if the trust line down to BitStamp is kept it may become expensive to move the IOUs around.
The proper way is;
- Everyone trusts BitStamp for however much they trust BitStamp
- IOUs for BitStamp can be moved around (but each time they move hands the sender pays 0.2% fee)

Hello,
Is there any slower and cheaper shipping alternative to Europe for something like 5x 1/10oz gold rounds? I'm considering getting some silver and gold games going on at taabl.net but your shipping price makes it hard for smaller quantities.
For a tracking number to Europe, the cheapest shipping option is about $60 (this is a rough estimate). This does not include insurance either. If you find a cheaper shipping option that includes tracking we would love to hear about it! Isn't Registered Mail fully trackable, and intended for high value shipments? I've used it a few times, and it cost maybe $12 on top of the cost of First Class. It's been a while though, it could be more now. Looking at USPS site I can't find anything significantly cheaper, except for First Class that I can't tell if it is registered or not. If it were the other way around I could send for much, much (did I mention much?) cheaper, but US->EU I wouldn't even know where to start looking outside USPS. |

@rpietila: Thanks! I only saw your post now, is the offer valid for today and for quantities 10~25?
Yes, just follow the instructions in the OP. Hmmm, I was going to do it now, but I really don't want my name and address on the forum. Can I PM you the rate so I lock it and make the tx, but give the name and address by email instead? |

I'm actually not in the process of selling my metal. I'm content with what I currently have. I thought the issue might be to ship single (or at least very small quantities) of coins to people as prize for some games on taabl.net. I thought I might be of help somehow (and make a little profit maybe) because I seem to have good shipping options available. I could've maybe stored (or bought) some silver from rpietila for this purpose and provided shipping service.
Why is 0.3 BTC too high a shipping price for 25 rounds? The low price and VAT-exclusivity of rpietila will surely outweigh any shipping cost at such quantity, no?
It isn't too high at all. As I mentioned I was thinking about much smaller quantities when I first asked about it, and your offer would be great for that. I have changed my mind and am just waiting for confirmation that the 0.3 BTC is applicable today and for the specified quantities. |

@rpietila: Thanks! I only saw your post now, is the offer valid for today and for quantities 10~25? @molecular: well, I'm always torn about this. I want to hold on to my BTC, I want to put my BTC to use, I want metals for myself, I want metals for TAABL.net. I guess I'm a little schizophrenic, but aren't we all?  Anyway, I was thinking of getting a couple to test the waters, but now I'm thinking of 10 to 25 rounds. How often I would buy again depends deeply on how well the lotteries are received. Do you have those many that you want to part with? I'll reach some sort of decision soon as I wanted to place an order today. Also, do you have any gold for sale? |

I have granted trust of 1 DYM to your address and received confirmation. In very specific steps, what do I do next to see the market to buy DYM with XPR? thanks in advance.
You go to the Advanced tab and cick on trade. Remove the currency pair from the drop down (you have to select the text box and manually delete the text there) and enter DYM/XRP. You should see TTBit's address or whatever alias you put in your contact in the DYM issuer next to the currency pair dropdown. If not, click on change issuer and select TTBit. Click on Order Book below and in a few secs you should get the order book. |

Hello rpietila,
I'm considering getting some silver and gold games going on at taabl.net. We've had a few private coin lotteries but I wanted to try and keep a steady stream of games as part of the site.
Your price is great, of course, but for smaller quantities which, with the uncertainty of bitcoin rates is the only thing I'm brave enough to do, shipping kind of kills it. Is there any cheaper shipping alternative? I don't mind slower and will even go as far as say uninsured (but tracked) is fine for a handful if the shipping price difference justifies it.

In reaction to the current value of Bitcoins, we have changed the bet amounts on BTC BitPicks to one tenth of what they were before, so single bets are now:
BitPick 2 - BTC 0.05
BitPick 3 - BTC 0.01
BitPick 4 - BTC 0.01
BitPick 5 - will be BTC 0.01 too, but since there is are bets already placed in the running game the change will happen after a winner is found
The same 1/10 rule will be applied to LTC BitPicks, but only BitPick 2 was changed so far to LTC 5.0 per bet, others will be altered as the active games come to completion.
TRC BitPicks remain unaltered.
Good luck!

Hey nelisky, obviously you are a trusted member of the BTC community (and it's awesome that you are allowing some other alt. coins) but I just recently was burned with a SD-clone out of the UK and I know others have been ripped off too, but give it time - I can tell you have already put a good amount of work into the code/sites.

Hey DBG, thanks for the kind words. Yes, I have been around for a long time and I'm not going anywhere. These sites are much more fun than profit (in fact, if I summed up the hours I put it I'd be seriously negative) and are ways for learning new tricks to use in more complex projects. But let me just state that DICEonCRACK is not an SD clone at all. It was born out of the frustration of TTBit while playing SD, and it is based on the SD format for sure but the games themselves are significantly different. Anyway, we certainly appreciate all feedback! |

Yeah, it sure is refreshing knowing some people are even more paranoid than I am... it almost makes me feel normal... almost.
Heh, seriously though, given your mention of the Italian community I was hoping the DC was somewhere in Europe and I was going to ask if I could do the deal in person to mitigate the escrow issue, but that side of the pond is no good for me.

Shipping outside Germany is no problem. But i will only accept BTC or Cash in advance / handover. I can sell the iPhone easy on amazon or ebay so that every other payment method is to much work / risk for me. Sorry
Well, thanks anyway. Nothing personal, but I'm not sending $600 (or any other amount) in BTC to a new member, particularly one that doesn't even consider escrow. Good luck, though! |

Will you send outside of Germany (but still in Europe) and will you accept escrow (or trust me )? |

Is DiceOnCrack frozen? I have placed bets but they don't show up, and there's a lot of bets that haven't been resolved yet.
Something wrong?
Yes, there was a network issue and my slightly paranoid wager processor locked itself up waiting for human interaction. It's fixed now, all bets placed are being processed and paid. Sorry about that, I'm trying to find less paranoid ways that are still as secure as the ones we have in place now. |

Estou novamente precisando de comprar BTC por R$... Por volta de BTC 600.
Vejo o povo todo comprando BTC, alguem está vendendo?

Go play at diceoncrack.com sorry, couldn't resist, I'm sure mskwik will make good at the end, people get increasingly busy sometimes and TRC was just 'vapor' in terms of value not all that long ago, so not high on most people's priority list. |

That's the thing with the open market, where there is no reason for a miner to divert hashing from profit making BTC to 300 diff, almost valueless TRC other than to have fun, and even there, since the diff cycles are much smaller the effect would not last (unlike what happened to NMC in the past). It would mean that they could 51% the network but since there is so little tx bandwidth they would profit pretty much nothing.
Now the situation changes and TRC become valuable enough to justify an attack (not yet really, but still)... guess what? Diff is no longer 300 and more people jump on board making the network more secure and harder to corrupt as a side effect.
So while there are windows of opportunity for an attack, they close really fast!
