Thanks for the message.  We think it's pretty cool too.

Will definitely hook you up with a beta invite when we can.  Just working out the banking issues at this point so we can get Php in and out.

Appreciate the interest!

Hi, I initially posted in this forum https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=27736.msg4375276#msg4375276 on Jan 7th, indicating that I was working on a Bitcoin exchange for the Philippines. That work is nearly complete and the exchange will start testing with live users soon.  You can see the public side at http://www.coinxchange.ph. The exchange is meant to be a Coinbase-style exchange with full wallet services and deposit/withdrawal services to major Philippine banks. The buy/sell spreads are quite reasonable compared with other local competing exchanges and we offer a compelling feature set.

As I mentioned in my initial post, the exchange will be fully licensed as a Philippine money services business and comply with all local laws.  To that end, the company will be registered as a Philippine Domestic Corporation, with $200,000USD in initial paid-in capital.

Which brings me to the point of this post.  I'm not a Philippine resident or citizen, nor are any of the other developers or investors. I'm based in the US as is my team, although we intend to hire a local staff.  To legally register as a Philippine Domestic Corporation, I need to have a majority of the Directors of the company be Philippine residents and one needs to be a Philippine citizen.

If you are interested in helping bring a solid, legal Bitcoin exchange to the Philippines, please reply to me in a private message. I am not asking for any funding nor will this require any of your time. I ask that you reply with your real name and your citizenship/residency status and I'll provide you with more details, including my name, and answer any questions you might have.  The individuals selected to become Directors will receive a share of stock in the company at no charge.

Thanks, and really looking forward to starting something great.

Is that working? I'm a resident. I'm a citizen. I'd really like to exchange bitcoins to peso and vice versa more often. I sent you a PM.

I would love to offer my services in case you guys need an infographic/explainer video done for marketing and promotional use i would love to get started on accepting BTC for my freelance gigs... I'm heading back to LA soon though, but hey, that doesnt really matter in the internet era

Alam ko walang mining pool dito. But there are many pools with asia or south east asia servers (usually the multipools). Except for really fast coins with 30 seconds or 1 minute block times, the mining pool location does not matter as much. Usually I connect to US or EU (Amsterdam) servers, mabilis naman. Because pools use the stratum protocol, so the bandwidth requirement is very small.

Sino nag ban sayo sir?  tanongin ko sila.

Thanks!

[drewph]

I don't know bro, maybe the operator/moderator/owner for the group.

It was most likely I was reported as a spammer then auto ban/block without contacting me/asking me to take down the post.

Still i wont use my IRL account for bitcoin, can be used for extortion/theft/etc. especially those people who have heavily invested in bitcoins in the past.

Who here, within the Philippines, and other close by countries, would be interested in a "mini" Group Buy for Gridseed ASICs? It's those small pods that look like sea urchins.

If I can get enough interest and payment up front for 100 units, I can probably get them for $185 each, already shipped here to me. If you want it shipped to you after that is additional (I suggest Air21 for local or FedEx for international.) Pickup is free from somewhere in Metro Manila (most locations are in malls.)

Units only and mini USB cable. No controllers, no power supplies, nothing else included.

Specs, delivery date estimate and what else do we need to run them?:-)

Nevermind, i wont be pursuing to return to that group.

[Dabs]

I'll make a thread soon.

Specs: same as any other Gridseed unit. These are 300 kh/s, 7 watts on scrypt only mode. Pricing is going to be 195 unless I get orders for 200+.

What else needed to run them: power supply, either a controller (which I will not be selling), a Raspberry, or a computer running Windows or Linux. There are other threads on how to do this. Lots actually.

[Dabs]

Here is the Group Buy thread: I made it a little haphazardly, but I hope you guys can make sense of it.

Hello,

Does anyone knows how to setup good bitcoin miner rig here in my place near manila. My budget is more like PHP130k, do you think I can get 300-600 GH/s on my budget?

Hello,

I suggest trying out a few of the Antminer S1's (I think you can get more than 600ghs with your budget, 4 S1's maybe)... Their prices have significantly gone down since last month... Add some more money and you can get a 1TH Antminer S2!
The only thing you need to worry about these is the power draw. Mahal ng kuryente sa Pilipinas!

i have 20 btc i'm trying to trade locally if anybody is interested in buying bulk.

If no one buys it, I'll get some. I'll let you know when I have the pesos for it. Preev shows 547,600 PHP. There should be a "bulk discount" if I get it all huh.
