Just use Silk Road. It shouldn't be a crime to have an account on SR and use them for that purpose, I guess.  And for the guys who say SR coins will come tainted, well, most of the coins sent to SR will most likey come from Bitinstant, and by consequence from the exchanges they work with. I laughed so hard when I saw the dealers there recommending bitinstant right on their product pages. That must put them(bitinstant) in an awkward position. |

OK, there is a patch for miners to blacklist SD tx's from being included in blocks...
What about a patch for normal nodes to blacklist the relaying/verification of SD tx's and drop them without relaying/verifying? It will for sure help normal users like me who want to run well-connected full nodes and save some cpu cycles and bandwidth by not relaying/verifying the SD spam.
1 BTC from me to whoever does it, if possible at all.

I read that as ckolivas believing that eleuthria's hope of an attempt to return the mistake as being laughably unlikely, without any specific statement of whether he would keep or return himself...
2nd this. Quit making wild assumptions. Wild assumptions just like the one Marrs and you made or the one I made? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black... |

Edit: congrats! You just got on the ignore list. Kindly take your negative self elsewhere.
Congrats to you too for also making it to my the ignore list... Do you really think a white font can be easily read on a white or yellow background or is it on purpose to annoy everyone? |

lol @ Psy. I thought about sending some also.  Perhaps it's a brilliant ploy for free bitcoins Indeed it may be...  |
|

Update: a few hours a go I received 0.005 BTC, 4 times!!!
This is coming from no where. I am just dying of curiosity.
Now that you posted your address in this thread you should expect the jokers to do that lol |

No offense to the OP, by the way. I think the way to go about something like this though is to hire someone who has some sort of profile. Give them half up front and the rest if you decide to use their design. If not, let them keep the half payment-they put a lot of work in. I just feel bad when I see bounties offered and people essentially working for free.
I just enjoy being an asshole, so I came up with this new and ground-breaking idea on how to make people suffer. I shall name it "call for bids" or even "open tender", and nobody has ever done it before, especially for graphic designs. Disregard my first post (on how you don't have to enter a finished design to win, but just a conceptual piece that shows how you are up for it), disregard my attempt at licensing this under CC so non-winning contestants still earn the necessary attribution for derivative works. Disregard the fact that it's everyones free choice to participate, when you boil it down, it still is slavery, amirite? Sorry for the sarcasm, but I believe it's a bad habit to feel victimized or offended in someone else's place. These are all smart people, let them decide if it's worth the effort. It's neither a publicity stunt nor a tease with a predefined winner. I want the best design that fits my requirements and this method will show me what's out there. This brings me to the main reason I was stopping by: You can't just take an already existing design (mainly those published in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=92969.680), put my logo on it and call it original artwork. If it's clearly a derivative work to something that was not published under a compatible license before, I can't use it for my purpose, because everyone else will be able to use the original design. Again: There are no rules in place that say that someone else can't print bitnotes, so I will need to use copyright as a basis to make a genuine bitaurum-note a potentially expensive thing to copy. So sorry, if it's not original artwork, it doesn't qualify for the contest. That being said: I appreciate everyone's effort so far and I am amazed by what people can do. There have been very good entries that have only been emailed to me and which I will not disclose until the contest is over (as per the artist's wish). There also were several requests for the vectorized logo, so I am hoping for some more entries by next week. I don't understand the sarcasm, I was not trying to fault you. I've just seen tons of bounty posts where the OP ends up choosing a design they like and not paying (since it was already made public). Perhaps I posted what I had to say on the wrong thread-you seem 100% good intentioned. But you have to admit, some people take advantage in similar situations. Yeah, and we have scammer tags for them if they do it.  |

Because Multibit only generates one address and uses it to send transactions from and change to, so for every transaction out you have the remaining of that input going in again as change. The wallet with the imported keys is not giving you the right value because it's not recognizing it as change, but if you look at the normal blockchain.info page for your address it does recognize what are the real transactions and change and gives you the correct value of 56.23650037 as all the bitcoins that have entered on that address coming from other addresses. |

You are allowed to send multiple bets. Your client will not send the same coins again, I think, but I'm not experienced with Multibit, so I don't know. Maybe you did a tx and blockchain reset and sent again some coins you had sent before and double-spent them. But one of 2 things happened, your bet became invalid and disappeared(only explanation I can find for this is a double-spend), hence why the 100 BTC disappeared after you reset tx and blockchain, or you dreamt with the 100 BTC win  If you look at this transaction then: https://blockchain.info/sv/tx-index/58808409The amount 9.73750014 BTC has been sent and verified to: 17Z2xL466Fc36ejEcn7BWosxUyFE259sEN That is your change What do you mean by change? The amount I bet was 0.01. I think you should read up a little on how bitcoin works before starting using it. It will save you some headaches in the future. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Change <--- Don't stop at that page, there is a whole wiki with information. And don't come to me with the theory that people don't need to know how things work to use them. Bitcoin isn't at that stage yet, as can be seen by the amount of requests for help from Newbies. |

Multibit only creates one address and uses it to send the change. Or you have the tx ID of the bet that you supposedly won the 100 BTC from or nobody will be able to give you an answer. Without a TX ID we can stay here all day long and you'll be none the wiser about what happened to those 100 BTC. |

I would say your winning transaction was orphaned/not confirmed because you probably double-spent your bet and then just vanished, as in, those bitcoins aren't yours. The address from where you sent the bets is the address where prizes are paid to, and clearly that address(17Z2xL466Fc36ejEcn7BWosxUyFE259sEN) never had more than 56.23650037 in it, from which 55.98450044 are still there.
What is the TX ID of the bet that won those 100 BTC?

Are all those addresses yours? Under your control, as in can you get the private keys for them?
BTW, You have a repeated address there, you say those are the 2 addresses from where you sent the coins, but it's only one address.

Filtering out satoshidice transactions would make it trivial to double spend a losing bet. Therefore I think it would be a bad idea for mining pool operators to make satoshidice transactions low priority or reject them alltogether. If you make a bet on satoshidice, you will usually know if it lost before getting any confirmations. If miners prioritized non-satoshidice transactions, then all you need to do to cancel your losing bet is double spend the coins with a high transaction fee. More info is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=130764.0Rejecting SD transactions is NOT a solution. I disagree. That's exactly the solution. If SD starts having losses because people double-spend all the losses then I guess they'll have to change the way the game is played, won't they? |

You want to decentralise where bitcoin is traded? It's dead simple.
Create your own exchange that has buy/sell fees of less than 0.25%. Mt gox starts at 0.6% and slowly goes down with bigger trading volume (for the average 50 BTC day trader it goes down to about 0.4%)
If day traders were aware of an exchange that charges less than MT GOX, many would flock!
How about NO fees? I had no idea that Mt Gox charged six percent. Even Paypal charges less, if I remember right. Dude... c'mon... 6% != 0.6% and MtGox charges 0.6%  |

I have my explanation why the drop happened - price has gone to $43 and some big guy was playing with a big 50k BTC wall at the Gox, trying to set a SCARE WALL at $43, but accidentally typed $34 instead and kaboom! He's now hanging from a ceiling somewhere in a Singapore hotel room and we have had some cheap bitcoins, all went well.
Just one little detail bugs me in your story: Why da f*ck in Singapore and not in Berlin?  |
