Yeah, I agree.

People think they can loan a little amount which they can pay off really quick and look pretty impressive, then ask for 5BTC loans etc.

Okay, so after telling my friends about bitcoin, I decided to give them a lecture on bitcoin.
Of course they were intrigued and wanted to know every last detail.
It took me around, a hour to explain the basics to them over a skype call, at the end they were all confused and had no idea what I had just told them, one even said "That is no possible", what is not possible, I asked.
He said a online currency, I laughed and ended the skype call, lol.

Anyway, the point is bitcoin is in need to be simplified and I THINK a lot of people agree on the subject, the whole mining bit is confusing even for veterans of bitcoin.

Nothing new really, it seems every 'big' company is against bitcoin, even the BBC seem to be against it.
8764  Economy / Lending / Re: 0.2 Reputation Loan on: May 10, 2013, 07:30:20 AM
Hello there,

I would be willing to loan a 0.2 loan, but I will ask for 0.25 back within 2 weeks.

I would also want all personal documentation you could provide, I would be keeping a record on all private messages/emails.

If you would like to do this deal, please shoot me a private message and we can start talking.

8767  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Pros and cons of buying Amazon gift cards? on: May 09, 2013, 10:22:05 PM
I have sent many amazon.com gift codes and still am today, I always allow escrow, so when buying always use escrow, release the funds when you have applied the gift code to your account.
8768  Economy / Digital goods / Buying Virtual Credit Card on: May 09, 2013, 10:15:51 PM
Hello there,

I'm looking for a virtual credit card which can be used for amazon.com.


If you can offer this service, please either post a comment or send me a private message.
The deal will be posted on this thread, so that the public know that the deal is occurring.

I'm not looking for a reloadable one, but if that is possible, that is great news.
I DON'T want a physical card.

Ah, there was a thread on this the other day of a similar accusation, I'm surprised that this hasn't been dealt with.
I'm glad you used a escrow service, make sure you keep doing that!

Currency takes years to establish, you may say '4 years really?' but that's nothing, I guess people are wise to cash out now, whilst it is still pretty high.
However, without faith, bitcoin will slowly die out.

I for one, willv remain with bitcoin, even if it goes down to $1/1BTC, because I know in my heart it would rise again.
Then I would be laughing.

You are currently in the lead, by quite a bit too!

You are so close to winning the 'no life' reward!
Only joking of course. Wink

You have a interesting statement there and may of just opened my eyes.

Yes, we can all remember them darn things!
I do agree with your argument now, making bitcoin more simple will surely encourage others who want to get into this beautiful currency.

I'm different from other people, I like complicated things, because I see a challenge and normally try to master it and feel good about it after, as of my friends normally give up as soon as they see something which slightly challanges them.

But, Bitcoin needs people to grow, that might encourage fraudsters, but hey! It's a currency and it looks like most people are more than aware how to avoid this.
I hope, someone can find a way of presenting bitcoin as a more, simple currency.
8774  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [ANN] Bitcoin on Blueseed, the international waters startup ship on: May 08, 2013, 09:06:06 PM
Amazing!

I will surely be following this up and be keeping up to date!
This is looking really promising, I think a lot of people would be more than willing to help support this beautiful project.
This needs to be advertised more, I'm going to include this in my sig, this is great news and could make bitcoin progress even further!
8775  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin needs to be simplified for the stupid. on: May 08, 2013, 09:03:48 PM
Bitcoin really does need to be easier.  For God's sake - it's people's hard earned money.  Who would want to risk losing their money with the click of a mouse?  I agree with the OP on most things, although I do have to give credit to the geeks who have been very patient and nice (I'm somewhat ignorant with computers) on this board, the LTC, and the PpC boards over the past month.  Thanks to all of them.

Making bitcoin easier?
Like someone said, it would encourage more fraud.
Most people who commit fraud are lazy and see a quick rich scheme and try to scam & fraud whoever and whatever they can.
Becuase of bitcoins complex way, I honestly think that most can't be bothered to read into it.
Most my friends I tell about bitcoin, don't understand it at all and don't want to either.

How can a small box of candies rule the world?



Haha, very good.

But back to the subject, I do believe they have the potential to 'rule the world' but as a geek, I wouldn't want to rule the world, to much responsibility, to much laws, too much wars.
Saying that, I would like to create my own island and community, so I guess I have mixed opinions lol.

I think pywallet, is your best option.
But beware, it's not really worth messing your bitcoin wallet up, unless you export all your bitcoin to a separate wallet.
There are other options, I believe there is a youtube video which has a step by step guide on how to do this, you might want to check that out.
8778  Economy / Speculation / Re: [poll] 200$ bitcoins? on: May 08, 2013, 08:55:35 PM
These opinions are mixed, but all have valid backing.
I guess we can only wait and see, right?

This would be my dream, I would love to start a island of my own with a bitcoin community.
I don't know why, it seems like a lot of hard work which sounds really fun to me.
