Great initiative! Can someone explain me how to plegde?

Thanks!

You can sign up for Bitcoin Starter here (takes 1 minute) https://bitcoinstarter.com/users/sign_up

Then you can load your wallet there (like how BitMit works) and use the BTC to pledge.

Would be more than happy to help with copy writing / marketing / PR side of things.

Thank you so much, I already bought a PR-package from you but haven't had time to use it Wink The project is standby, since the bitcoin volatility currently offers us more lucrative possibilities just trading it in other venues, plus OTC-trading.

Of course that's right Smiley Let me know when you need it!

They just need to invest in more hardware. A lot of it. As soon as possible. Like yesterday.

Otherwise opportunity seekers with a lot of cash will see an opportunity and take it (creating new, faster, better exchanges).

Everything'll work out either way  Smiley
1646  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: What kind of new exchange do we need to accommodate the influx of new buyers? on: April 13, 2013, 07:51:10 PM
It's pretty simple - we need an exchange that doesn't have a 30 minute lag on its trade engine. So I disagree, it is the technical issues that are causing the current problems. Of course there will be a rush of new exchanges coming out and in the woodwork at the moment to solve this problem. There was one exchange that recently received $500 000 of venture capital and they were going to be based in Wallstreet.

It's already happening Smiley

IMHO unless they invest in some serious hardware and fix this problem Gox is finished in a few months - there's a new generation of exchanges coming out I can feel it.

Hi everyone,

First of all, I am sorry some of you do not like the design. This is not a final design and it may be tweaked by the time I get everything lined up with the manufacturer and the money to make them. This ended up being much more expensive than I thought... $7000+ just for the first 1000 coins (the security hologram is the expensive part.) Because it is so expensive, I will only carry one or two coins at the start, and no silver coins at all. Hopefully I can expand my selection shortly after launch, but it just depends on many uncontrollable factors.

I am not going to lie and say I am some expert photo shopper/3d guru like some of the people who have made the coins you guys are posting. But, I'm not too into copying anyone, perhaps those guys would like to actually make those coins one day... who am I to steal their design? At least the LTC logo which I have used is fair game.

Although I am not an expert in coin minting, I have an everlasting enthusiasm for the future of Litecoins, the work ethic to make this project happen, and (hopefully soon) the funds to do it. I hope that I can make these in a way that most people will like them (if not I stand to lose a lot of money.)

Thank you all for your feedback, you can be sure that I have read what you all have to say and am considering everything mentioned.

As soon as I have any updates on this project, I will let ya'll know.

Thanks,

Ch

Thanks for starting this project! Is it possible to perhaps ask the person who designed the bottom right design below if you could use their design for a share of the profits? The bottom right design is a work of art, phenomenal and I really do not think it can be beaten.

i've never liked any of the litecoin designs, except these:


they were released into the public domain by aspect, and were available at http://alpha.cryptotron.com/ltc-designs/original.html (dead site now)

i know there's an awful lot of detail on them (you might want to modify it if your mint cant realistically achieve that resolution) but IMO it's by far the best litecoin design - all the others are complete shit (atleast as far as physical coins go).
Gotta admit those are pretty nice. Wonder if it really costs more to create those.

I don't like them, remind me of a known moneyclub of some sort..


even if he had authorization, it would most likely have to be heavily modified to have less details. I can't say its impossible because I don't know, but its hard to think its possible.

Also coinhoarder, don't let go too much for a design. You have a decent one right now. You can shop around, but even for a killer design, I wouldn't pay much.

Artists are gonna hate me sure, but whatever, I'm a businessman.

Good art is good business. Beautiful things sell. And make the world a bit more awesome for everyone Wink

This looks very,very good!

We like it also. Let's make it a hit!  Grin

Hey guys - thanks for the support  Grin

Even if we don't hit the fundraising target we will be releasing a very detailed article anyway (we love writing about Bitcoin), but the funding will help us promote it as much as possible so if you are reading this and like the idea please help us help you and Bitcoin out!

Bitcoin is an amazing piece of technology - anyone can go dig up a tulip bulb this comparison is ridiculous

Tulips are an amazing piece of natural bioengineering, and anyone can go mine a coin. I think this comparison is comparable.

Can you mine a coin by picking it up off the ground without any other hardware, knowledge, investment and skills?

Bitcoins are carefully crafted piece of tech - tulip bulbs are also a carefully crafted piece of tech by nature - but their use value is far lower than that of Bitcoin, clearly. A tulip bulb has been around for tens of thousands of years and will probably remain the same for another few millenia at least, Bitcoin is an emerging, carefully crafted technology which may have effects as profound as the internet itself. No comparison.

The bottom right design is just awesome with the circuit board, earth, and Litecoin. It has always been my favourite Litecoin design!

I'm down for buying these - when will they be ready!?!?

When Bitcoin hits 1K (few months to one year most likely), I think the OP is going to have a meltdown.

OP: go to BTC-e and buy some cheap BTC before you regret it!

EDIT: I take no responsiblity for any actions anyone takes from my advice, this is just my opinion.
1656  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buy now at Mt.Gox' $190 price or wait? on: April 08, 2013, 04:23:25 PM
I am getting ready to buy my first Bitcoins, should buy now or wait a week?

What are your opinions? 

Get your cash to BTC-e and buy there  Wink
1657  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Terracoin Dead or Dying ? on: April 08, 2013, 04:04:03 PM
Diff is going to drop very soon, miners will jump on, patch to adjust difficulty will have worked. TRC's back  Cool

By very soon you mean three days, right?

I heard six hours.. but if it's three days it's better than never!

The amount of time until the next diff adjustment will be dependent on just how much hashing power gets back onto TRC. If more people get back on TRC it will be shorter, if not, longer. If you hold any TRC it would probably be a good idea to help it out with a bit of mining power and help speed up the difficulty readjustment.

Yes, anyone holding TRC should be mining like a madman!
1658  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Want Bytecoin, BTE? I will trade Bytecoin BTE for TRC Terracoin on: April 08, 2013, 03:57:01 PM
Yes, I will trade my BTE for TRC.

Ratio of 1 to 1.

PM me with the amount of TRC you have and your BTE address.

Limited amounts of BTE available!

Is the OP even still here?

Man you should have sold 50% and kept 50%

Never know it could be a good thing as whenever there's a parabolic rise in the underlying security there's room to correction.  I believe we are in a cyclical bull market for btc barring any "black swan" event like a major hack.  Its generally agreed hacking btc is difficult if not impossible but I learned in life--never say never and forever is a long time, cheers.   

But the last correction in 2011 was caused by a "black swan" hacking, not a bubble. BTC is still in its earliest of days, the bubble, when it comes, may be a while off Smiley
