Hah. I thought I missed the gravy train when I bought at $50. Then again I sold it all once it hit $200, so now I *really* feel like I missed out.  |

This is why I never made any iphone apps. Switch to android!
The app I'm making wouldn't appeal to android users. And what vlee said. I have to admit though, android is probably a better long-term investment. |

Why would he sell for $65? He can go on OTC right now, find a reputable buyer and get market price minus ~5% for them in minutes  |

He's going to give the BTC to either himself as an alternate account or his friends.
Don't fall for this scam.

Assuming you're working 8 hours, that's $100/hr. I'm not that good.

May I ask a stupid question? You can code, so why not offer your skills for cash.
a) you could kill some time, waiting for your $2000...
b) you would earn some money, $800 is like a 1 week fulltime coding job.

-bump- Still up for grabs. Yeah VM won't work, the temporary computer I have I bought for $200, it has like 1GB of ram and I hate it, and $20/mo is a bit too steep for a development environment that I'd need an internet connection for. It'd fuck with my workflow too much. If it was $5/mo then maybe. Guess so.
$800 for a second-hand laptop? Thank god I never went down the Apple path, if that's the going rate.
Yeah, I really miss Linux. |

CC is not an option because if I bought the computer at best buy it would cost 3x as much as it would on craigslist. He specifically requires a Apple device to develop (tbh a cheap used Mac Mini will do, OP) for iOS.
Also @OP: There are cloud based mac environments where you can compile your code (and develop locally).
Don't want a Mac Mini. Want something portable. And what kind of cloud environments are you talking about? Do they supply IDE's like XCode? |

Alright, how about my What.CD account? It has about 100GB upload and 40GB download, donor status etc. and the ratio rules on there are such that you can go as low as a ratio of 0.10DL/UL, so if I scam you, you can literally download every single piece of music that has ever existed in FLAC and destroy the reputation I have on that site. I also am almost at the Elite user class, which gets about 4 invites per month, so you could just sell invites (worth $25 each) until I get banned. I'll even let you download a couple of albums as thanks for the loan. Would that be sufficient for anyone? |

How exactly would that work online?

Bump - I seriously need this money, the terms are completely negotiable and I can provide as much proof of identity as you guys want....

At my university there were fairly newer Macs that were freely available that I could develop on when my computer crapped out. It was less convenient, but it was better than shelling out another $800 for a new laptop. Summer started in June, and I've mostly been hanging out with friends and having fun, but my parents moved to Reno 3 weeks ago, and since then I have been doing literally nothing. I am losing my mind due to boredom, and the thought of doing nothing productive (or fun) for another 2-3 weeks waiting for this money is torture. Also, here is a picture I took of Xcode on the Mac to show its legit (taken in May I think):  |

I was in the middle of programming an iPhone app when my computer took a shit, this was back in February. I was making really good progress, but now I can't work on it because I need an Apple computer. I'm getting fed up of not working on this, but I need $800 worth of Bitcoins to buy a new laptop on craigslist (since iOS apps can only be developed on Apple computers). I have a bond of about $2,000 waiting for me in a few weeks, but I want to work on the iPhone app now. I will return $850 (negotiable) worth of bitcoins to you for the risk and will give you the first $150 out of $300 of my profits once I release the iOS app (if I make any). So if I make $50 in the first week of release, I give you $25 etc until it goes up to $300 if that makes sense. Keep in mind, lets make it easy and say Bitcoin is worth $100, and you give me 8BTC ($800), and when I get my bond money Bitcoin jumps up to $200, I will give you 4.25BTC ($850) back. Similarly, if the price instead drops to $50, I will give you 17BTC ($850) back. Feel free to Google me, my name is Reed Weichler. I have never done anything like this before and if anything seems sketchy feel free to ask. EDIT: Since people keep asking about collateral, I'll save you guys the trouble and copypaste it here: Alright, how about my What.CD account?

Lol, did you think before you wrote all that
I didn't even think while I was writing it, either. |

Almost everyone? Bus driver, taxi cab driver, the waiter at Olive Garden, UPS guy, etc? Or is "everyone" techno-nerds?
To be honest I asked younger people, mostly. Not necessarily techno nerds. It was at about 25%. |

I meet random people almost everyday and most of them have no idea what Bitcoin is.
Hm. Okay. It might have to do with the fact I live in the Silicon Valley, then. Almost everyone here knows what Bitcoin is |
