I am looking for a Bitcoin based website in the $2,000 range.
I have decided to use a portion of my tax return to purchase the site.
I am looking for something that is currently earning revenue and has a unique design.
I am interested in pools, exchanges, etc, preferably a site that provides a service.
If you are interested in selling your website please PM me with the details or reply to this thread.
Thank you for looking!
I don't have a site that I'm willing to sell ATM that meets your criteria but I'm curious - are you offering cash only or are you willing to spend the bitcoin/litecoin equivalent? |

Isn't there a list of the highest net worth bitcoin addresses somewhere here in the forum, that is updated on a regular basis? It seems like anybody that has the ability to continuously dump 500 btc at a time must have enough to be on that list. It would be interesting if someone were able to mine into this data and see which of those addresses is depleting in 500 btc chunks. I don't know how to do it.
Those are the richest addresses but the highest net worth people most likely don't have all their coins in one address. In fact I remember reading that there are 42 thousand addresses with just 50 bitcoin. I would bet that a large portion of those are actually Satoshi. What better.. more clever way to hide your hoard of money than to mine it but assign it a new key for every block reward. I bet he has about 1.5 million bitcoins That would be a lot of addresses to keep track of!  The right clients handle it nicely. If you are a programmer it wouldn't be a big deal.
No need to be a programmer, but reading and understanding the code can help you find and trust the right client... Aren't you talking about Mt. Gox trades? These are all within the system, you won't see personal wallets change unless they're moving them into and out of Mt. Gox constantly. |

You could help the economy by spending some. At the current exchange rate, even just a handful can get you some cool stuff. There are also plenty of bitcoin startups looking for investors. I know I have plenty of ideas that just need some funding to get them off the ground. |

I'll bite - what kind of liquor do they have down there that would be considered illegal here?
Home-made. They have it here, too, but it's easier to find it there. Don't know what the appeal would be, though. Cheaper? |

bitcoin is almost exclusively used the moment because it can be used over the internet to transact with remote entities Source? really? Do you not believe this without a source? How about this for a source--- ME!! (If you not happy with that read one of the many 100's of articles extolling the use of bitcoin as an INTERNET currency and how it can be used to do things like an internet shopping (ie: non-physical), or foreign money transfer etc.) You are making a claim as to why bitcoin is being used, not how. I happen to believe it is due to its decentralized nature and I'm asking you to provide evidence to support your claim. BTW, you still haven't addressed some of my other questions. |

Yes, a fee gets paid. However, it ONLY gets paid ONCE (at the time when casasuis loads the coin) all other subsequent transactions that involve the physical exchange of coins are *completely* free!
No, you misunderstood. I'm saying, Casacius Coins exist yet they haven't supplanted the current system. |

Hello, beeblebrox, I am also new here. ie: The transaction fee model will not support the cost of block creation. Bitcoin will lose hashing power in the future when block reward coin generation drops off faster than the increase in bitcoin price.
Why wouldn't the tx fee model work? Surely this is a market forces thing. Miners won't operate (for extended periods of time) at a loss, so they will only accept tx's with sufficiently high fees attached. Tx fees will therefore be dictated by the efficiency with which miners can operate. Miners (or more likely mining farms) with low overheads will be more competitive and can therefore accept lower fees, stealing market share from their competitors. It doesn't work because off-chain transaction happen independant of the miners. There are physical coins call casascius coins that have a bitcoin stored in them. (you can buy them off the internet, search for casascius coin)-- you can phyiscally give these coins to someone who can then give to someone else who can then give them to someone else, etc...... none of the transactions are being recorded in the block chain and hence there is no fee involved. That doesn't answer the question. Casascius coins exist and transaction fees are still being paid. There are advantages and disadvantages to using off-chain transactions. You have yet to demonstrate how the advantages outweigh the disadvantages to anyone's satisfaction. |

I'll grant you point 9, but nothing else. (By-the-way: these points weren't though out in depth they were on-the-spot thinking. So, the fact that I got a bit wrong is not surprising)
Why won't you grant anything but point 9? How were my rebuttals insufficient? |

"1) instead of being cheap, transactions are now totally free" - Would the smartcards be free? I didn't have to purchase anything to start using bitcoins (unless you count the BTC itself).
"2) instead of taking 10min-1hr to verify, transactions are now instant" - It's only instant because you're not verifying anything!
"3) hackers personally enjoy coding stuff like this" - I'm sure Satoshi, Gavin, and other developers enjoy what they're doing.
"4) a bitcoin business can use it as a selling point" - Businesses could use the opposite as a selling point as well. So far, no one has joined this thread in support of your idea which tells me that there would be customers not interested in it.
"5) transaction can now be totally anonymous" - They can be anonymous now.
"6) it prevents block chain data growing wildly since less transaction processed on net (someone might implement with this good intention without thinking about its long term consequence)" - Not sure I understand this. How would this help anyone play SatoshiDice?
"7) storing a wallet such that is interlinks with a computer's TPM is more secure then storing it on normally on the harddrive" - Many security conscious bitcoiners already avoid storing their BTC on their harddrive.
"8.) someone might actually do this off-network exchange using a smart cards (there have been various proposals already about bitcoin on smart cards) making it easier to carry the wallets around on your person (a lot easier that carrying around your computer)" - Easier than carrying around my phone?
"9) smartcard storages make it easier to store the wallet in a physically secure place (such as a bank vault)" - Easier than a paper wallet which I can do now?
"10) electronic off-net exhange means people without internet but local connectivity (eg: blue-tooth/NFC) can transaction business" - I admit this would be an advantage in those ever-shrinking locations without internet access. Personally, I avoid those like the plague.
"11) phsyical off-network exchange, like casasius coin, allows people without even a computer" - My phone is often my computer. It seems to me the percentage of the population without near continuous access to sufficient computing power and the internet is rapidly shrinking.
"12) it could be overall easier for people new to bitcoin to learn to use-- since technology like smartcards and there useage are quite common (such as bus-passes) and the fact that smart card bitcoin would be very similar is use." - Many bitcoiners are working very hard on the issue of making BTC more attractive to the average person. While your idea of a bitcoin smartcard might come to fruition, I don't see more than a few people willing to sacrifice the security and decentralization of the blockchain for something that may be slightly more convenient under certain circumstances.

I'm curious, where are you located, deeplink? If I were to make an off on a book, would it have to include shipping costs?

Personally, I think bitcoin is spreading too quickly. The last time we had a meteoric rise in the exchange rate we had an even faster fall do to a couple of high profile hacks spooking investors just looking to get rich quick. I fear the recent rapid climb is due to something similar and anyone just in it to increase their wealth may be in for a surprise if there is another blow to Bitcoin's image. Those who get burned may be reluctant to adopt it even when it becomes more widespread.
I prefer a slow, steady growth influenced more by increased usage of BTC than by popular opinion.

I cannot believe the logic Coinabul is using here.
The point of insurance is to ensure that Coinabul does not have any losses in the case where they need to re-send or refund an order. This has nothing to do with your customer except that he specifically asked for and payed extra for insurance. If my insurance company denied my claim for car repair after I already got it fixed, it isn't like I can tell the repair shop, "sorry, claim denied, I refuse to pay".
Coinabul is absolutely responsible, their insurance was inadequate or, at best, misrepresented for their packages and asking the customer to accept full responsibility for this is shocking.
That seems to be what happened. I'm just waiting for this to be moved to the scammers sub-forum. This isn't a scam, it's just poor customer service. Coinabul is within their rights to deny responsibility for the loss unless someone can show evidence that this is a direct result of Coinabul's actions or covered under their terms and conditions. If the buyer paid for insured shipping and it was not insured is that not a scam? They admitted they failed to insure it correctly. I'm sorry, are you claiming that is was not insured or that it was insured incorrectly? I don't see Coinabul admitting either, in any case. |

sending him a pm here wont do any good he'll ignore like freenode since he got my money now, and since u're a customer for over a year now maybe u can reach them and tell them about this? if u may :-)
Even if I wanted to act as an intermediary for a complete stranger who has already misunderstood my advice (which I don't), you haven't provided any helpful information whatsoever regarding your issue. |

i did submit a ticket asking for cancellation and refund but still no one answered and magicaltux ignored me on freenode so im worried , and about the people who use their services r they for real or is it just magicaltux using several accounts to scam?
I started registering domain names with them over a year ago and have had no issues. Kalyhost is only a subsidiary of the company started by MagicalTux; I highly doubt he is involved in its day to day operations. and r u one of magicaltux's friends? i dont see how u never had issues when everybody is complaining thats not reasonable "Everybody"? The only other person in this thread who has personally experienced any bad service is freemoney. I happen to have actually met freemoney in person and believe he is telling the truth, I'm simply saying kalyhost has seemed just as professional to me as other webhosters. I believe there is also a user here created specifically for Mt. Gox support. Try sending them a PM. |
