Registration On Bitcoin Market

[dwdollar]

First off, some news...

I was planning to add more currencies, but that is no longer a priority.  Development on the current version of Bitcoin Market has ended and a new platform is in the works.  Because of this, I'd rather not spend time developing better member verification and a rating system for the current version.

So...

I'm opening up registration later today.  However, new members must heed the following rules IF they wish to use PayPal.

1.)  Immediately after registration, send your username using your PayPal email address.
2.)  The email address for trade notifications must always be set to the PayPal email address.
3.)  You will not be able to buy more than BC500 per week using PayPal.

If I add to or modify this list, it will retroactively apply to all new members from this point in time.  Any new member using PayPal and not following these rules will be immediately banned.

If you're already registered, these rules do not apply.

EDIT:  THIS NO LONGER APPLIES

Yes!  I'm already registered and grandfathered in!  The rules don't apply to me! :-)  Thx.

The first step to buy BTC's , then pay via paypal worked great.

I am happy that we can re-ignite the BTC economy!

Well done.

Now I am waiting for my coins to arrive, but I am very optimistic that all will be fine.

Does the 500BTC limit only apply to using Paypal?  That is, if we use Paypal, are we limited to a total of 500BTC across all services, or can we have unlimited transactions on non-Paypal services regardless of what we do with Paypal?  I'm considering arbitrage opportunities here (caused by the 500BTC limit).

Does that mean no one can buy more than 500 btc from someone selling it for paypal? I thought the market was p2p rather than through the market directly?

[dwdollar]

New members can not buy more than BC500 using PayPal in a week.  New members can sell an unlimited amount using PayPal, and can buy/sell an unlimited amount with LibertyReserve and Pecunix.  I'm not concerned with MoneyBookers, since no one buy/sells with it anyway.

After today, I see this isn't going to work.  Registration is closed once again.  However, if you have a good reputation in the Bitcoin community, I can make an exception.  I'm thinking a notable presence on this forum or a respectable Bitcoin service is sufficient.

Sorry for jerking everyone around, but these scammers have a very profitable enterprise and they're not going to give up so easily.

Yea they wont give up. I am selling directly from the forum now.Maybe a forum section specifically for this might help.

Well, I'm trying to keep it clean inside Bitcoin Market so I have to take these draconian measures.  You're welcome there.  As are most people here, who have been around for some time.

I'm have 4200 BTC, u buy???

[S3052]

Many people including myself can trade on mtgox or bitcoinmarket, etc very well and at reasonable spreads.
there is no incentive to buy from you unless you 1) prove that you can be trusted and 2) offer a better price, at least 10% below current mkt price

The magic of bitcoin is that you don't have to be trusted. Once you send the coin. Bam. Perfect.

I'm have 4200 BTC, and need register in ur site... for sell
u buy??

[FreeMoney]

That's a thought. Why can't new registrants sell BTC but not buy?

Hey, here is an idea.

How about You re-enable the registrations and just disable Paypal and Moneybookers for all new users (Only "old" userbase would be able to use Paypal & Mbookers), so no SCAMs can be made ?
LibertyReserve and Pecunix are "hard" currencies as far as i know, so it is not possible to do drawbacks.

Doesn't this seem logical ?

Agreed, would be nice.

I will manually register anyone who wants to join, if they send me an email.
