Or you could use blockchain.info and use TOR to connect to blockchain.info

I've never been able to fully access the wallet section of blockchain.info using TOR, anybody else had these problems?

Though TOR is not safe anymore itself unless you are taking multiple other steps with it together.

If you look at cases where people have been identified when using TOR it's because they either had the stupid idea of logging into personally identifiable accounts at the same time as logging onto other sites they shouldn't be on.

People who assume TOR itself will keep you hidden are naive and wrong, how can one piece of software hide your identity if your foolish enough to do something like log into Facebook while on Silk Road?

Always assume someone is watching and prepare from that. That's why Bitcoin is so great, sure you can say address x did x transaction at y time, but you can't prove address x belongs to me unless I've confirmed ownership somewhere else. You could even apply this rule to IP addresses, sure that IP address is mine but can you prove it was it was me on my machine? For all you know it could have been a relative staying over or someone who decided to crack my AP and abuse it.

The irony of someone who admitted to scamming possibly being scammed. Anyway you've only left a three hour gap between the PMs, I would give him some time, he might have been held up with something - it happens to all of us. If in a few days he's logged in but hasn't responded then I'd say you have a valid claim.

Why not just go to the library lol

I don't want to go to the library every time I buy or send bitcoins. A VPN that doesn't keep logs is a much simpler solution. 
You could really just use TOR to use bitcoin. As long as an adversary doesn't previously suspect that you are using bitcoin then you have basically 0 chance of any kind of timing attack

That is probably the simplest solution. I must admit I don't know how to connect my wallet to TOR but this discussion has inspired me to find out.

From the TOR Wiki

Run bitcoind with -proxy=127.0.0.1:9050 (or whatever your SocksPort is).
bitcoind will detect that you are using a proxy on 9050 and will force the "nolisten" flag. If you are not running tor on 9050, you need to set "nolisten" manually otherwise you will listen on your public IP and possibly reveal that you are running a node.

Great product ... bad reputation ....

I want one .... but I'm afraid to buy it ... 8$ is not much ... but I don't want to encourage scammers so escrow would be nice Smiley

I wouldn't mind to way a few days until you get something like 10-20 orders ... so you only pay the fee for escrow once Smiley

Check this thread, he doesn't want to use escrow because he wants to build his reputation up. Feel free to deal without it but I would suggest escrow for ANY amount when dealing with someone over the internet, there's no repercussions if someone decides to scam you unless there are legal aspects involved.
367  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scam attempt from campsis on: July 19, 2014, 12:01:36 PM
lol wtf i sent money to you, you cockhead wtf.

Lovely. Maybe you should try responding in a mature manner to the accusation instead of trying to counter them with insults, which doesn't help your case.

He's just taunting the scam victim. Sad really, kid needs to get a life.

Your argument looks good, but i'm afraid "sharting" is a talent we don't need right now.

Still not responding to the accusations made?

Wait let me clean ur mom up.... DONE... lets see... some kid accusing me of scamming, ahhh... another day another accusation! fuck this

Oh no! You insulted my mother, how will I ever recover from this tragic event? Here's a little tip, when your reputation is as bad as it is, not using escrow and responding to accusations in a childish manner doesn't help. If you are legit you would have no problem using escrow - anyway I'm done entertaining you, good luck with your e-life and your sales.

Interested, will you accept escrow considering your reputation?

No escrow, i'm trying to build rep.

Yeah, you can still build rep without escrow lol. Anyway after your display in the scam thread I think I'll pass. Cheers anyway.

This is not valid with Dynamic IP internet connections, like the connection I've right now.

Even with a dynamic IP address your identity can still be found.

Your ISP will keep logs of who is assigned what IP address at what times.

Any more information on this? My only sources come from talking to ISP support reps but they've always told me "due to the dynamic nature of allocating IPs" they can't confirm who the owner is, which to me sounds like BS because I'm sure all ISPs have to have rules in place so they can identify customers in the case of abuse.

Great news, I think in all honesty anything that shows Bitcoin holds real life value does nothing but good for it. Can't wait till they roll this out across the globe.

Do you offer escrow and shipping to the UK? If so at what cost?

Digital goods mainly, but almost anything can be sold for BTC given the right infrastructure.

What kind of price range are you looking at and what kind of space is on offer? Remote / physical access?

This is probably in the wrong forum as your not selling anything. I've reported it so it should be moved soon.

I don't think you were punished for success, a lot of people use the same argument when they make too much money on PayPal and then decide to claim PayPal was in the wrong for asking where the money came from. At the end of the day it's Amazon's terms of service. Maybe post your site so we can review it?

I am not clear on how that could be, since I succeeded – I made a sale.

Just because you made a sale doesn't mean your content was original or unique. Seen those terrible eBooks that promise $300 per day sitting from home? Their content is all copied and pasted but they still trick hundreds of people each day.

I am sorely disappointed – I am a long time Amazon customer, and I looked forward to working with them as a business partner. They have made it clear they dont need my business, or yours.

You're right, they don't need your business. One person not working with them won't affect them at all, sorry to sound harsh but they have millions of others.

If this tag is what I think it is, is it true you paid about 1k for it? If so can I ask why your selling it for a quarter of the price? I'm interested but bit weary as to why you're selling it for so low.

bitcoin is still too early for average joe, it seems people want to pus grandad and little pete into bitcoin purely for a price ramp so those holding bitcoin can cash out. these people have no clue of bitcoins true uniqueness, true usefulness, they just want quick profits and only measure bitcoins in fiat profits, not a bitcoin retirement. and no one should be taking advice from them. instead lets concentrate on building the proper bitcoin ecosystem and get a firm base for which we can expand on.

A lot of people forget this. We have a system that's capable of transmitting something of value across the globe for almost no fee, instead people want to focus on profit and profit only.

Once people see that Bitcoin has other benefits and actually holds value the rest is just easy.
