It looks to me like fastcash4bitcoins.com and coinbase are good options.

It would be interesting to see what would happen if I made a similar virtual "gem" and set up sales with rules that more closely approximated actual buying and selling, i.e., new owner gets the right to decide how much to sell it for or not. This might give us a good way to estimate the actual worth of the current gem.  I could call it "the less than magnificent bitcoin gem" or something like that. |

Why do they call it "buying" the gem if you don't get to set the price afterword? If the price always goes up by 10%, doesn't that mean that you haven't really bought anything? If you'd actually bought it, then wouldn't that mean you have the right to decide whether or not to sell it again, to who, and for how much? In what sense is this "buying" at all?
Why did Pirate call it "investing" instead of "give me huge amounts of coins which I will take and never give back"? Marketing. Oh, I get it. Thanks for clearing that up for us! |

Tell you what: I will take it off your hands if you pay me the next price of the gem.

Insightful and well done!

I guess people are just losing my point here. Of course it says there is a 10btc limit. You of course can't see that until you sign up. Then finding the information to raise that limit or have that increased isn't published. Actually, I linked all that stuff for you to read further up in this thread. You can read all of it without a coinbase account, I think. |

What do you plan to use the coins for, and what are the circumstances that prevent you from buying the coins with fiat currency?

Points for creativity. |

I need to purchase a few Bitcoins quick and I'm willing to do so over paypal with a long-standing member. I need to 2 coins exactly and i'll pay market price + $5 extra, and send the money prior to receiving the coins. I'm verified with Dwolla but the transactions take a few days to clear and I ned them sooner than later. Just PM me. Thanks!
What do you plan on using the coins for? |

They want me to buy 10 bitcoin, wait 30 days with my money in their account?? What are they nuts? What kind of people would use a service like that? I don't think there's a requirement that you keep the money in your coinbase wallet during the 30 days. I'm pretty sure you can spend it. I certainly haven't read that anywhere. I think the requirement is just that 30 days after your first transaction, you are considered verified, and you can now go up to a limit of 100 BTC. If you posted on their forum calling them nuts, I can see why they removed your post. |

Sell your house with a price of 15 BTC. It'll go fast, I'll bet, and it'll be the first confirmed house sold for bitcoins.
OTOH, house sales usually take several weeks to finalize, and the money would be held in escrow until then, so it might not be the quickest way to earn 15 BTC. Quicker might be to sell a car for 15 BTC... though some cars might not be worth that price. Sell it for a little more, then, but take 15 BTC up front as earnest money. |

Bitcoin addresses are plentiful enough that one could be generated for every transaction expected in the economy without running out. I imagine that global daily economic transactions worldwide far outpace what most botnets could accomplish.
I might be wrong on this comparison of scale, but my point is that distributed mass generation of bitcoin addresses is exactly what this system was designed for!

I'll stick with square logo design. All other coins use circle, no need for one more.
Why not go triangular? In fact there are three freely convertible currencies in the Galaxy, but none of them count. The Altarian Dollar has recently collapsed, the Flainian Pobble Bead is only exchangeable for other Flainian Pobble Beads, and the Triganic Pu has its own very special problems. It exchange rate of eight Ningis to one Pu is simple enough, but since a Ningi is a triangular rubber coin six thousand eight hundred miles along each side, no one has ever collected enough to own one Pu. Ningis are not negotiable currency, because Galactibanks refuse to deal in fiddling small change. From this basic premise it is very simple to prove that the Galactibanks are also the product of a deranged imagination. |
