Foreget it. Its a scam. Don't send that monkey guy your bitcoins.


It's too late to send the monkey guy bitcoins anyway. The fundraiser is over now. If you want MSC, you'll have to buy them from someone who got them during the fundraiser. Mine aren't for sale Smiley

Thank you, but I better spend my money for something useful. Beer and hookers for example. Smiley

Идея распределенной биржи проста и витает в воздухе. Но, в теории.
Как приблизить теорию распределенной биржи к практике работы таковой - пока не ясно.


Ripple вполне себе работает на практике.

Neither bitcoin nor USD are units. And this is bad.


No, it's a good thing, because in that sense a bitcoin is objectively no worse than a dollar.

Objectively no better either.

Besides that BTC is clearly defined as 100000000 satoshis Tongue

No, you can't define units like this. You need to define satoshi first. A meter is not defined as 1000 millimeters. Since 1983, a meter has been defined

Quote
as "the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second."

You have to register on peercover.com to see that is even a feature of the site?

I logged in through my linkedin account. They have also dwolla and facebook as options. You need to have ripple wallet or create it on peercover.

This site is several month old. The original goal was to make p2p insurance using crypto currencies. They are implementing some nice new features. One of the best features is to buy XRP with credit card. You can convert these into bitcoins at bitstamp rate instantly.

Edit: They actually have info about features which you can get without registering. Just follow links on front page.

Honestly I would just start using Coinbase to Convert BTC to a USD bank deposit. Or you can buy BTC through it with your bank account so transactions work in both directions. I've been using it for a few months and have no problems with it.

The fastest way to buy bitcoins so far is through peercover.com. You need to have a ripple wallet. You buy ripples (XRP) with credit card, and then convert them into bitcoins (BTC) through bitcoin bridge. Works in seconds at bitstamp conversion rate.

Why almost everything has to revolve around usa? Usa does that, usa doesn't do that, usa is going to crash and so on. Short lesson of history: america was discovered by europeans and colonized by them.end of lesson.         

Short lesson of modern history: currently, USA is the biggest empire in the world, and Europe is one of its colonies. End of lesson.

Go trade on ripple. There is good opportunity to make profit currently by trading on spread for different currencies.


I've heard good stories about ripple. Do you need to make a ripple wallet or can you use your current one?

You need to have a ripple wallet. It is as easy to create as bitcoin wallet. You can have multiple wallets too. Unfortunately, the only reliable client currently is browser based client. It works fine though.

Idk, maybe because global oil trade is denominated primarily in USD?  Or because you live in one of the many countries where the dollar is more highly valued than the local currency.  Or because there is no volume in your local currency and dollars are the most fungible foreign currency? Or...

...or because you live in shithole slave colony which uses $$ on internal market. Ok, I got it.
1194  Economy / Economics / Re: How do people think using Mt. Gox is efficient? on: October 19, 2013, 08:29:06 AM
You falsely assume everyone is in the usa, hence high transaction costs and long withdrawal times.

Of course, the majority of MtGox customers are in USA. Why the hell do you need USD, if you are not in USA?

1196  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ripple is officially open-source! w/link on: October 12, 2013, 07:56:17 PM
I'm considering buying some ripple, but  I would just like to know what happens when I'm buying from my Bitstamp account. Do I get my USD transfered to the ripple account or are they converted to Ripple instantly? How is the price of ripple established given there is a vast majority of undistributed "coins"?

Thanks!

At bitstamp buy the minimum amount to fund your wallet, i.g. 50 XRP reserve plus 12.5 XRP for trust line. Then deposit them into you ripple wallet. Then deposit some USD into your ripple wallet thorough bitstamp or other gateway. Then you have several options to buy ripples from the wallet client. You choose which one suits your needs better.
1197  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: invest in bitcoins? on: October 11, 2013, 09:08:40 PM
how about just investing in bitcoins and sitting on them...I know I'm a new b but I've been learning about this for the last month or so...I'm thinking of just taking all my spare money and buying every chance I get...any input is appreciated.

Invest in some production. Economy in your country is in deep shit no matter what country are you from. Directing investments into speculations instead of production sector is what hurts it.

I can also confirm that this development will sever all ties with Ripple as well. 

Dwolla did not have much business with ripple gateways. Only with SnapSwap for several weeks. They will probably switch back to ACH.

their running our of money, talking about default, and now they retroactively pay people to stay home, wow the logic is profound!

whats a dollar worth if you don't have to work for it?

They don't pay. Those who are affected by shutdown are on unpayed leave.

I don't live in the States and so I am not intimately familiar with how Dwolla works, so what makes them special? How are they different from other payment systems like Paypal? Why can't a Bitcoin company replicate their success?

They are not special at all. I used Paypal for years, but I learned about Dwolla only few month ago, when I tried to buy some bitcoins.
