Most of the greedy bitcoiners wants to make huge profits from speculation AND evade taxes.

Yes I like to have my cake and eat it. And come back for seconds.

No UK bank will deal with anything Bitcoin related. Banks are too hostile towards it.

2124  Economy / Speculation / Re: 2nd biggest ponzi scheme in history on: December 01, 2013, 03:20:59 PM
A ponzi is illegal in every situation.

Bitcoin is not illegal so it cannot qualify to be a ponzi.

Well that wraps that up. Quickest thread ever. Another epic fail by Revans.
Are we on Bitcoin is doomed fact #134 or doomed fact #135? I can't keep track.  Cheesy

Let's not forget he also promised about making Microcash ages ago.

Another scam; people didn't get what they paid for.  Roll Eyes

Kind of off-topic, but started working on an exchange a few weeks back. Matching engine is complete. Finished support for google auth yesterday. Hopefully over the next few weeks I'll be able to finish the rest and start working towards a private beta.

Rest assured that when this thing launches there will be a real registered company behind it with datacenter presence in at least 3 countries. I've watched realsolid's clown show long enough and it's time somebody put something together that reasonable people can trust.

BTW, once we get the web version of the exchange up and running, we're planning to bring in some really interesting features. For example, I've been talking to a company, for the better part of 6 months, that has produced a forex trading application and they seem willing to convert it over to handle virtual currencies. At this point, they are holding for the completed API. It has full support for bank grade charts w/technical indicators and comes with an integrated automated strategy trading system. This isn't some metatrader4 bullshit either. Much more modern.


Excellent news. Hope it works out.

One question. How do you know your hosting provider won't steal coins off your server? They will have full root access to any of your machines.

Nobody was "scammed". mcxNow is up and running.

I'm calling Dâniel Fraga another Realsolid sock puppet account. Got to be. Nobody could naturally be this stupid.

Allow me to post a wise quote as well:

Sound familiar AnonyMint?
2131  Economy / Speculation / Re: BitPay black friday numbers suck? on: November 30, 2013, 06:50:18 AM
All I see on the speculation subforum are posts by people who believe we`re going to see $10,000 per coin soon or some other wildly optimistic number, yet I also see many of the same people writing that they used their bitcoins this week for shopping. Why would you shop with your coins if you think they`ll be worth 10x (or whatever figure) next year? Is everyone here insane or what?

Why would anybody by a mobile phone? If they waited a few months they could buy a better model cheaper.
2132  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: fall of coins with asics? on: November 30, 2013, 06:43:27 AM
I think your right.  Bitcoin has plummeted in value, interest, media attention, and adoption since the first ASIC was released.

2133  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you also root for human disasters in near future so bitcoin price will rise? on: November 30, 2013, 06:36:03 AM
he explains to me in the following chaos and disasters, people will lose their life savings and governments will impose capital control and seize citizens’s property, thus causing people to pile their money into bitcoins, so that he can get rich.

Careful what you wish for.
Not much good being rich if the world is unfit for human habitation.
2134  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Bitcoin a Pyramid or Ponzi scheme & what are the ramifications? on: November 30, 2013, 06:32:42 AM
I thought this thread would of finished now. Didn't the majority (excluding AnonyMint obviously) draw the conclusion Bitcoin isn't a ponzi/pyramid?
2135  Economy / Speculation / Re: BitPay black friday numbers suck? on: November 30, 2013, 06:30:19 AM
I spent 100 mBTC on gifts...then immediately afterwards I bought 100 mBTC from coinbase. problem solved.

Yes this a personal rule I've always stuck to. If I spend some coins, I always top up again with equal or greater amount.

This way I protect myself from self butthurt if price rises.
2136  Economy / Speculation / Re: What happens if Bitcoin is compromised again? on: November 30, 2013, 05:21:31 AM
Paid troll! I wish.

Didn't deny the second option I see. I understand financial businesses are starting to worry a little over Bitcoin. I'll put you in that category.

Bitcoin may succeed, it may not. I don't know the answer, you don't know the answer, no-one else on this forum does. But what I do know is that FUD spreaders will not change the outcome.

Bitcoin isn't flawless, we all know that.
The question is 'is it good enough?'
*shrug* I don't know. We will all find out in time.
2137  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cracking the Code on: November 30, 2013, 05:05:03 AM
I wouldn't do an altcoin that is closed-source. If you see that, it isn't me. No promises on the premine, except I wouldn't do a 10% premine or anything ridiculous. You have to fund things somehow.

So how is doing a premined coin distributing the initial coins fairly? Wasn't you claiming Bitcoin is doomed because lack of distribution?

Seems to me you find Bitcoin broken because not enough are distributed to yourself.

In fairness to revans he is correct.

https://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2010-5139

I've come to the conclusion revans is a paid troll or someone in a financial business that will be hit bad when Bitcoin eventually renders it obsolete.

So do not use mcxNow Smiley It's simple as that Wink Did somebody pointed a gun to your head forcing you to use mcxNow? No! So stop crying.

Ahh, but am I crying because of upset or crying because of laughter?
2140  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why are banks allowed to prevent the takeup of Bitcoin in the UK? on: November 29, 2013, 11:45:24 AM
Bufferoverflow re ibwt.co.uk - the idea is sound but the technology is ancient and insecure: sending cash!?! by post!?! waiting days for it to credit the account assuming somebody at the Post Office hasn't stolen it!?

As other replies have said, the arrogance of UK banks is astonishing and does to a fair extent mirror the same attitude from the 50s and 60s in British manufacturing (particularly cars and motorbikes): despising the customer, producing shoddy goods/services, resting on their laurels until it's too late and the industry/service has moved abroad.


Couldn't agree more.

If Richard Branson is bullish on Bitcoin, what we need is his banks to become Bitcoin friendly for businesses.
