I really love the idea behind BitcoinMarket, being an active commodity investor myself.  However, the site seems to be always, or nearly so, unreachable.  I seem to recall a post stating that it was on someone's home machine (and thus probably piped through a residential line)...could this be the source of the issues?  Whoever runs the site, I would be glad to collaborate with you (Computer Science researcher here, so I can at least know what I'm talking about) if you would like some assistance devising ways to increase uptime, reachability, or system automation.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

You must use HTTPS. Connections to port 80 are dropped. I think this is the source of most peoples' problems -- BitCoin Market is almost always up for me.

Why is 80 not forwarded to 443?

My ISP blocks 80.  Besides that, I don't have many complaints about them.  Bandwidth hasn't been a limiting factor yet.

There are some security issues I have with hosting elsewhere.  I don't want to rush into anything.

I'm not sure yet, but it's back up and functioning now.
