Well, let me first start off by saying the first friend was more impressed by the fact that you listened to my suggestion than he ever was unimpressed by the lack of new news, so you won him over pretty good. As for the second friend, I did ask him, and it turns out it was my fault. I use a tv as my monitor (for showing guests websites anyway) so I have the font sized extra large, and the page size around 200%. I don't even notice the overlap or things it throws off, but yeah, it does make it look pretty half assed, but he now knows it was my half assedness anyway. He was much more impressed when I told him to look on his own monitor. In 1998 I took a course on evaluating the truth on web sites. Interesting, thinking back, the things people associate with trustworthiness on a website. Not always obvious. Awesome! Thanks. Ill let my designer know she still has a Job

I'm aware that canadianbitcoins and cavirtex are always on top of regulations that's why I trust these exhanges, so if your not allowed to disclose information at this time that's fine. My question is regarding Canadianbitcoins Can you explain the reason canadianbitcoins has temporarily disabled cash deposit and if this is related to mtgox and TAYPE Also will this be a similar update to the one on cavirtex Thanks To be honest was thinking of posting this question in Canadianbitcoins but it would be a 2 year necro Was not sure on whether to revive it or ask here maybe next time to show how far bitcoin has gone As a side-comment "I've been involved with Bitcoins since the CPU mining days, and double digit difficulty (man, when it jumped to 43, that was rough!)" Love that post Two year anniversary to a hangover incoming https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=27087.msg341290#msg341290Lol i just went back and read that thread, so nostalgic. Bitcoin has come a long way since then. We have disabled cash deposits due to potential issues that we are working out with the banks. I'm assuming its pretty much the same issue as with cavirtex -- banks dont like anonymous cash deposits from third parties into accounts... even if we have KYC docs for all them, the banks dont know that (because they dont ask, they just assume that we dont for some reason) It is NOT related at all to whats going on with mtgox (that i know of at least) We are working with TAYPE closely and with the BANKS to find the right solutions that keeps everyone happy. For the most part, it comes down to AML/KYC. Almost time for another Canada Day aimlessly tackling the crowds around Parliament hill spreading the rambling drunk truth about bitcoins! Cheers James

do you plan to add yubikey 2fa?
Not at this time.. Google 2FA works very well.

I think Havelock Investments is great. I will however mention what two other people mentioned when I tried to get them into using the site.
I know it will sound petty, I never even noticed myself, but the last news is from March 8. The first person I showed the website to mentioned it right off the bat, saying it seems like a scam (because if you're a scammer you obviously don't update your news ticker?). I know it is flawed logic, but as it is now, the news is just taking up space.
The second person I tried to bring on board just thought it was unprofessional looking, but you can't please everyone.
Thank you for the feedback, we've been so busy with other aspects of Havelock (like coding new stuff and working on new asset listings) that I've definitely let things like the news section fall behind. I've updated an article for today (tell your friend!) and will be switching it from a manual news listing, to an RSS feed pulled from a reputable bitcoin news source. Our business isn't news, so we'll let the news experts handle that from now on! As far as it not looking professional, have you showed them some of the _other_ sites? One of the top feedback items I hear from people is that they like Havelock because we DO look (and indeed, ARE) professional! Could you ask your friend what about the site made it look unprofessional? Or have him call us with his thoughts/suggestions, I'm open to hearing them. 613-686-1661 x101. Cheers, James

A feature request:
Show number of units owned on the "order book" page. The way it is now, the BTC balance is in the upper right as usual, and may be useful when placing a buy order. For sell orders, on the other hand, we have to rely on memory. If I enter the bigger number than what's available, I get a warning in red, and have to start all over again. Ouch.
This is now added Sorry for how long it took to implement such a simple request! James

Websocket is now live on the website. Any trade on any fund causes the "last trade price" of that asset (if its displayed somewhere on your current screen) to update in real time. In addition, the "Recent Trades" section of the order book page also updates in real time.
More of these auto-updates will be coming over time, the "last trade" was just the simplest to implement. If you have suggestions of what to live-update next, let me know!

I don't know if you saw this as it was down voted pretty fast and I posted a warning, but this was on reddit a few days back linking to a site your probably now aware of, but it might be another lead ?? http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1fucgc/im_having_trouble_logging_in_to/I watch /r/bitcoins RELIGIOUSLY, and somehow I missed that! That is, indeed, the phishing site. I reported it to namecheap, and they nullrouted the domain and suspended the account. James

Those of you with havelock... have you been doing alright with them? I just looked over their financials and they are losing more and more every quarter. They're down to a quarter (no pun intended) of where they were last year.
Havelock has done a couple of 10:1 stock splits. That's why the price is "down". The actual price is way up. I remember when Havelock shares were less than 10 BTC each. Then, they rose to over ten, about 15 BTC or so, and then they did a 10:1 split down to 1.5 BTC. Then, they rose to about 3 BTC each, and they did another 10:1 split down to 0.3 BTC apiece. To make a long story short, If you had bought shares when Havelock first started, you would have more than tripled your BTC in about a year. I think that the only stock on Havelock that's down is SDICE. ASICM, HIM, and VTX are all way up. Havelock Investments is the Berkshire Hathaway of Bitcoin investing. Oh wow. I wasn't aware of the splits either. Is there any information that helps give a timeline of these things? The splits are indicated in both the updates tab, as we'll as annotations on the price graph (charts tab) The graph is adjusted so the splits don't make the graph crazy. (Historical data pre-split was adjusted to show post-split values for unit volume and price) 1 unit was ~ $22 when we launched and would now be 100 units worth $30 each. $100 invested at launch would be worth over $13000 today. (A lot of that is due to btc appreciation a well) Cheers, James Wow, that's awesome! I'm pretty new to stocks so hopefully this doesn't sound too stupid but... what determines when the stocks split again? We split the stock because the value kept growing to the point that it was cost prohibitive for a single person to invest. If we hadnt split the stocks, a single share right now would be worth 31BTC, or over $3000. Our goal when we launched was a price around $20-$50, when we grew to over $300, we split 1:10, then when we grew to over $300 again, we did another 1:10, bringing the price per share back down to the target range.

No fees pushing to your MPEx account vs an insane fee on Havelock. If people can afford 30BTC fee to open an mpex account, they can afford a 1BTC fee to push assets to it. I wouldn't call that 'insane'.

This may be an insignificant error but it's a bug nonetheless.
Top two Asks June 13, 2013, 7:28 p.m. 29.6402/30.0000 105.66600 3131.96 CAD June 13, 2013, 5:11 p.m. 3.6032/9.0000 105.88000 381.51 CAD
Trades Processed BTC CAD Price/BTC June 13, 2013, 7:28 p.m. 0.3598 38.10 105.87999 June 13, 2013, 7:28 p.m. 2.1290 225.42 105.88000
Trade history Processed Traded For CAD/BTC June 13, 2013, 7:28 p.m. 0.3598 BTC 38.10 CAD 105.87999
How was my 105.666 order eaten by 0.3598 @ 105.87999 ?
I wonder what kind of errors that engine would do with some more volume.
Because when you placed your ASK, there was already a higher BID (at 105.87999). so your order "ate" their BID first, then the rest stayed on the orderbook at the price you requested.

Also would like to say Thanks for adding volume charts sneak peak: websocket is coming too! (should go nicely with the newly finished API) wss://ws.havelockinvestments.com:8443/ still a work in progress, but it announces trades at least so far.

Those of you with havelock... have you been doing alright with them? I just looked over their financials and they are losing more and more every quarter. They're down to a quarter (no pun intended) of where they were last year.
Difference between "losing" and "expenses" - we're making a lot of capital investments in new equipment (using retained earnings from earlier months), so our net profit/loss might be negative in recent months, but once this equipment comes online, we'll be generating significantly more. We have over 2TH on pre-order. Hmm, here's what I made my statement based on: Assets (Total): 09/30/12 - 1071.6132 12/31/12 - 1597.5555 03/30/13 - 463.7322 Furthermore, you said there's a lot on preorder. Here's a statement for that one: Mining Equipment: 09/30/12 - 1708.8608 12/31/12 - 1107.6923 03/30/13 - 98.8235 Please clarify what I'm misunderstanding? Mining Assets are based on CAD valuation, converted to BTC at the time of the statement. Q2-2012 - 708 @ $12/btc ~= $8k Q3-2012 - 1107 @ $13/btc ~= $14k Q1-2013 - 98 @ $170/btc ~= $17k Total assets (mining equip + retained earnings in bitcoins) Q2-2012 - 1071 @ $12/btc ~= $13k Q3-2012 - 1597 @ $13/btc ~= $21k Q1-2013 - 463 @ $170/btc ~=$78k

Ah, the 1:10 split..got it. So if/when it happens again you'll go crazy? i'm just glad it didn't happen while the first one was still visible Good thing I price-adjusted the graphs for the latest split
