Ask Max Keiser to appear, he's been pushing Bitcoin on his RT show and reckons he is already a BTC millionaire. Maybe even good for a sizeable donation.

Tried it and it says my address is not valid? It is accepted everywhere else.
What's your address? It's possible other place you're using aren't doing validation on Bitcoin addresses. Not had any problems anywhere else with this address. 1PYFk1eKFhKd6UA1Gp5wkusd63mTdshpqP Have you tried recharging it? What's recharging mean? Still a newb at this stuff. |

Exactly same in my case, removed slash to solve connection problem then get "Couldn't connect. Try checking your username and password". So frustrating. |

Then you proceed to ask for as much personal info as if I was trying to adopt a baby!
What's all that about?
I thought Bitcoin was all about ease of transaction and anonymity.

Many thanks for the further replies guys, I think I understand the basic concept now thanks to you people and having used P2P networks. The mining part and discovery of new BTC is becoming clearer however the transaction fees for miners mentioned in deepceleron's post has thrown me again so I'll read up on that pdf. No doubt in a few months I'll be looking at this thread and thinking what a dumb newbie I was lol.

Thanks for the replies guys, I have seen the first 2 replies but still can't quite get my head round the talk of blocks/hashes etc, I'll get it at some point no doubt. @ Danny, sheesh if that's the simplified explanation perhaps I ought to delete this thread lol, but many thanks for trying.
One question, if people stop mining because it becomes less profitable how will transactions be verified and so carry on Bitcoin as a viable currency?

Can anybody post a link to bitcoins explained visually by diagrams or video, especially the concept of mining please.

A Canadian silver quarter would be nice for my wife, she emigrated from Canada here to UK to join me just after we met but sadly after only one year needed major heart surgery and is now disabled after stroke complications. Lucky I suppose it happened here in UK where treatment and her care costs are free due to my having paid NI contributions all my life. Incidentally she has a 1943 Canadian silver dollar which here father left her in his will.

I mine with 2 nVidia GPUs, I am in it for the long run - I expect "final" price at about 50 000 USD per BTC. So I don't care if I am not profitable right away, I can wait for it. Bitcoins are my pension fund :-) Btw I started mining in june 2011, till now I have 12,5 BTC
What year do you expect/hope BTC to achieve that price? I hope you right btw. |

According to a few on zerohedge some of the banks will never re-open.

Very sensible. Does the Technical Support Forum get trolled a lot? If not it would be handy to have it open.
Good point, if somebody has a problem and they have to wait 4 hours that could seem an awful long time. |

I'm so paranoid I'm finding it extremely hard to get BTC, why do the exchanges want so much personal info?
