Okay, I think I have some pretty bad luck - sent 0.100001 btc with proper fees, didn't get in the block which came after 5 minutes... And plus the "initial block didn't get in" happened to me too Tongue

There are some misinterpretations in this tale, it is quite informative and attractive, but not entirely truth.

I suggest "money as debt" for more accurate information.
What are you saying? This video is 100% true, and should be a call for arms to raze the red shield bankers (aka the fed).
7325  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoins Can Inflate Too - Stop worrying about deflation. on: December 11, 2012, 10:00:49 PM
BTC is a deflationary currency.

Despite the propaganda THIS IS NOT ALL A BAD THING!

-Your savings increase in value over time, this means you can retire, and let someone else take your job!

-It will mean the earth resources are not wasted to the never ending pump up of growth figures to fuel inflation.

-It will mean a more stable economy with less bubbles and cheaper housing/asset prices.

-Governments find it harder to fund their wars.

There are no banks in a bitcoin economy, it's peer-2-peer, fraction reserves are for fiat debt notes.




Yes there are, and there will always be banks.

Grin
My english, I was referring to domain for the app, like bitlocker.*

4. Implemented! IDs are no longer sequential.
Cool, but a hash or no numeric id would be even better  Grin. Imagine a consumable private sale agreement (example: a invitation code). If before the client buy, someone loops through all the id, could spoil my sale and the item go to the wrong hands

Quote
When someone buys the item, you'll receive the payment (minus fees) within 24 hours.

Why such a large margin?

Would be nice :
Address validation on field "Your wallet"
Don't empty the form if you make a mistake.
 Smiley

1. 24 hours is now instant. Haven't updated the page yet since I'm typing on my iPad, and I'm not sure why I had the 24 hr clause in the first place  Huh

I think passwords would be much better for your situation which I'll implement Smiley

And for address validation, I wanted to do it but it seems addresses can have many quirks like different lengths.. I'll look for a tested regex or something.
7327  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinobit - no house edge, 100% payout on: December 11, 2012, 11:48:19 AM
I want to remind again that Casinobit admin is misleading about 100% payout! Having 2 zeroes on the roulette gives him 5.26% advantage.

The roulette shouldn't even be there at the moment, everything is being remade.

PR/Marketing fail itt

More like competitors trolling me but meh, it's currently in the first testing stages and we don't really care to introduce the bitcoin community to the casino. We care more about introducing people from the gambling community who are new to bitcoin to the casino.
Your game needs to be provably fair before any sane person plays it.

There is no such thing. We could show that the game on the main page probably provably fair like Satoshi. The rest of casinos are BSing about provable fairness, we might as well MD5 hash the current millisecond and provide the string to the user as "evidence".
I'm not sure how you think the rest of the casinos are BSing about provable fairness. THEY ARE NOT. SIMPLE EXAMPLE:

Lucky Number ranges from 1 to 100. If it's less than 50, you win 2x!

SITE has a secret. Say "foo". Now if they tell the secret, then people can calculate the lucky number. So they HASH it with something like SHA256 and tell you that.

YOU has a secret too. Say "bar". You give the secret to SITE. Now site will know your lucky number since they combine your secret, with their secret. However they cannot change their secret now since they already gave you the hash.

Now do you understand it?

You might say, but the site knows their secret! What if they played the game THEMSELVES? They'd knew what PLAYER secret to use to win! But the only point of that is you're SCAMMING THE GAME. However if 10% of the "game" is owned by outside investors, then you can scam them. So yeah, satoshidice can scam their shareholders but not you.
7328  Economy / Economics / Bitcoins Can Inflate Too - Stop worrying about deflation. on: December 11, 2012, 11:41:16 AM
The year is 2030. People revolted and threw the feds out. Everyone pays in bitcoins, woo! But all the 21 million bitcoins have being mined already.

An apple sells for 0.05 BTC. The average hourly wage is 1 bitcoin. Everyone's happy.

Someone loses their coins. The world population grows. Now the average hourly wage is only 0.9 bitcoins! People stop buying apples as much as they did before.

An apple now sells for 0.045 BTC. Everyone's happy again.

But then people realize that just by holding bitcoins and not buying, they are actually becoming richer! Plus, someone loses their wallet again, and the world population grows. Now the average hourly wage is 0.8 bitcoins from the natural deflation, and people start putting 1/4 of their wage into a coin store wallet to become richer. The apple farmer realizes less and less people are buying apples, and have to lower the price. And then people knows that if they don't buy something, they will have more buying power tomorrow.

So nearly nobody buys things. The world economy collapses. Then some corporation called the Federal Reserve comes, 'hey, here's our fiat!'.

Right?

WRONG.

This will not happen because of fractional reserve banking.

Alice deposits 1 bitcoin into the bank.
Bob deposits 10 bitcoins into the bank.
> Coins in bank: 11 bitcoins

Carpenter borrows 5 bitcoins to start up a new business.
> Coins in bank: 6 bitcoins

Don't see the problem?

Alice sees her statement with 1 bitcoin.
Bob sees his statement with 10 bitcoins.
Carpenter sees his wallet with 5 bitcoins.

Kaboom. Inflation. Fractional reserve banking will *save* us from a deflationary spiral.
7329  Economy / Economics / Re: You Know Whats f**king Sad? on: December 11, 2012, 11:31:01 AM
I was referring to the need to create a P2P form of currency. And by "tied to the dollar" I meant we assess btc at their USD value that day. Its not like we think of them in units of gold or something.

It's funny you say that because I've been training myself to break my programming(brainwashing) as it relates to valuing everything in consistently devalued FRNs for some while now. I'm nearly there, though sometimes I still regress. Instead of fiat toilet paper I try to think of the value of everything in terms of Ozt of silver. Try it some time, it can be very enlightening. When you think of purchases in terms of exchanging something of intrinsic value like AU, AG, or BTC, you're generally less likely to give them up for something of marginal value, unlike valuing things in USDs or other fiat trash.

There is no difference between valuing something in "fiat trash" and in gold/bitcoins, because gold can be converted to "fiat trash".

Say $10 = 1 bitcoin.

Laptop: $300 fiat
30 bitcoins

Huh

No difference.

7331  Economy / Marketplace / Re: :: bitlockr - automated item distribution platform - sell anything 7x24, instant on: December 11, 2012, 09:20:22 AM
A few clarifications:

1. I cannot reveal when the doublespend protection kicks in and what factors it consider, as that will make it easier for people to doublespend. Please keep in mind I get nothing of the 1.5%.

2. How the anonymous payment / double spend protection works is that blockchain.info notifies and confirms with us in the next block. If the user double spends, blockchain.info still pays bitlockr, which then pays you.

3. It is my domain name Smiley

4. Implemented! IDs are no longer sequential.

Thanks to everyone who asked questions / offered feedback so far!

7335  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Blockchain.info wallet SCAM - Stole $6 [PROOF] on: December 11, 2012, 01:43:09 AM
Where is the proof that you lost $6? Please show me the statement. So far I have to say one thing:

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
SMSing balance and showing I have $6.6 less credit?

My plan is divided into many different things - optus money (phone calls, sms, etc), credit (used if you run out of anything or for sms payments), data.. credit was decreased after they charged me for an error message.

Zappay finally responded to my email asking for my country code..
7336  Bitcoin / Project Development / Bitcoin Binary Options on: December 11, 2012, 01:34:45 AM
Would anyone be interested in a bitcoin binary options? I'm thinking of 30 minute rounds with investments allowed in the first 10 minutes. You get your deposit back plus an equal ratio of the other side - so if it's 10 btc up and 5 btc down, then if you bet 1 btc up you'll get 1.5btc back.
7337  Economy / Gambling / Re: bitZino - Bitcoin Casino - Now with more Video Poker: Deuces Wild, Bonus Poker.. on: December 11, 2012, 01:24:38 AM
How about introducing a no zero roulette? Have a 0.1 BTC max bet and a 0.01 BTC min bet. You would still make money over the long run as you introduce people to bitzino, and a lot of people tend to keep gambling till they lose them all.

It seems satoshidice is ignoring some bets.

Maybe now they're ignoring all tiny bets.

http://blockchain.info/tx-index/36036145 is a transaction where none of the bets have been processed at all.
Then don't bet tiny amounts. Problem solved.
7340  Economy / Scam Accusations / [Resolved] Blockchain.info stole $6 on: December 10, 2012, 09:23:59 AM
1. I want to buy bitcoins with SMS payments.
2. I send the text message to the number with the correct pin.
3. No response for 24 hours (before, it would reply with a success message near instantly)
4. "$Msg. Your payment couldn't be processed. Please check the 4-digit paycode after 'PIN' is correct."

WTF?

The pin code is correct. You delayed the message by 24 hours so now the pin probably isn't in your system anymore. I am charged for a product I do not recieve.

1. I have emailed blockchain.info.
2. I have emailed the address in the SMS window.

No response. (Emailed a day ago when I didn't get a success msg, and again just now).

I know it isn't directly caused by blockchain.info, but blockchain.info is the middle man. If I post a thread on the currency exchange session saying my friend wants to trade, and "my friend" scams someone, then that user will get a scammer tag. Same thing with blockchain.
