Is the site moving? It's timing out.

Yes, in the process of moving the site over to it's new home with a face lift.

Payments will go out by 12:00 CST and hopefully the site is up by then too.

Can't wait!

[runlinux]

He'll post it when its ready.

any news or updates?

[pirateat40]

The new website is up!

First Pirate Savings & Trust is now Bitcoin Savings & Trust

Since www.btclending.com will be used for a separate service, there is a new URL as well.  For now, the old URL will redirect to the new site but it won't be for long.  Check out the new site at www.btcst.com.

The new site includes a whole new backend along with a few new features including:

• SSL Encrypted - Coming shortly.
• Two-Step Authentication via Google Authenticator - Coming shortly.
• Request Withdraws - Coming shortly.
• Account Changes - Limited based on authentication.
• Transfer Codes - Coming shortly.
• Much more to come...

Note: Payments paid yesterday where added to your account (regardless if you are reinvested) just for record purposes while we switched over.  They'll be removed so don't go spending them.

I know it's been a while and I'd like to thank you all for being patient. There are a lot of things in the works which will be released in the coming months that integrate with Bitcoin Savings & Trust.

As always, please feel free to contact me if you have any comments, suggestions or issues with the site.

Enjoy,

pirate@40

Looks awesome but I think you over paid me 285.97519541 BTC  :/   Can you double check that?  Thanks.

Pirate,

It seems the login page is not encrypted (https). The usernames and their concomitant passwords would appear to be transmitted in the open. Is this the case or am I missing something (the SSL stuff you refer to)? Seems a bit questionable for use just yet.

Still the same referral from an existing lender requirement for the new site?

My 'Google Authenticator', 'Transfer Codes' as well as the 'Much more to come..' are not presently working ...... just kidding

Now that I got that bit of sarcasm off my chest, I do have a serious inquiry....

With the Transfer Codes, can you elaborate ?
Would this be for Exchange Transfers ? (MT.Gox, BTC-e etc ?) or from account-to-account ?
The possibilities of this new function kick ass (from what I've been able to think up uses for anyways).....

New site looks good, but I do miss the woodgrain.

Thanks again Pirate.

Transfer will start with account to account and scale to many other services.

Yes, I got that (read it twice before submitting). Admittedly, any website you visit can be all or partially encrypted. I did mention the SSL reference. I guess the question would be should we wait until that is completed given the man-in-the-middle attack vector, or are there other security measures in place beyond the SSL implementation that would protect against potential account breaches?

We aren't talking about a 'facebook' account issue here. Real assets are at stake. Just saying...

Yes, right now the DB is locked and I've added lots of security features behind the scenes.  Until we have SSL running and the minor bugs fixed most of the site is disabled.

Are they though? btclending.com wasn't SSL-encrypted either, but people didn't really mind because there wasn't much that an attacker could damage. I'm sure pirateat40 will enable SSL and two-factor auth _before_ enabling interactive (withdrawal, transfer) options on btcst.com forcing a password change when encryption gets turned on would also be smart.

[FredericBastiat]

Just to be clear, thanks for all of the effort Pirate. No malfeasance implied.

T'would be proud to be a sailor in the company of such a noble, illustrious and generous pirate captain.

Hats Phrygian Caps off to ya.

Arrghh
