what is the best method of converting bitcoin to usd.
I see that there are methods to buy bitcoin. but the methods to convert bitcoin to usd are wire transfer and that costs too much money.
I dont own any bitcoin and would like to buy some mro. hate all these conversion stuff. thanks.
Coinbase.com is the easiest, quickest, safest method for noobs. All you need is a checking account and a credit card and you could probably buy up to $1000 instantly today. thank you. and it is easy to convert back to cash with coinbase from your experience? Yes it's even easier to sell back your Bitcoin on Coinbase. Just make sure you're really ready to sell because it won't show up in your checking account for up to 5 days so you won't be able to get back in if you change your mind. Also, word to the wise, don't bet the farm no matter how confident you are in a coin! Only invest what you can afford to lose. It always bears repeating that. |

but happy to stay in once I get to 8:1 BTC:MRO pardon the stupid question: 8 BTC and 1 MRO, as you state, or 8 BTC and 1 BTC's worth of MRO? Thanks for slumming. |

When I want a crypto-neutral reference point, I think in fiat, so, your second option is my intention. I neglected to say 'in purchasing power terms'. I'm not there yet. That's a ratio I selected on the basis of my current estimates of risk/reward, but as MRO demonstrates more maturity and/or I learn to better anticipate its moves, I would probably raise the MRO fraction. In an ideal world, given the priority I place on privacy, if the purchasing power of each were stable, I would probably reverse that ratio, putting 89% of my crypto purchasing power in MRO, and 11% in BTC, or something on that order. I am an aggressive risk-taker. I'm trying not to be crazy stupid, however. Just crazy is fine. The slumming comment kinda hurt. I'm definitely communicating badly, if that's the vibe. Sorry. Will try harder. I think it is a rare privilege to be able to participate in these conversations. Well, the trolls are a bummer. |

I'm pool mining with the most recent version of simpleminer, and no matter which pool I use, the rate of my submitted shares start out good, but then after 3 minutes, a share is being submitted only every 60-90 seconds.
Has anyone else experienced this? My system is Xubuntu 14.04.
Is cpuminer better? If so, there are several different cpuminers available. Which one should I get for pool purposes?

Transaction fees should be a fixed percentage of the block reward, or at the very least not be controllable by the payer. If payers can optionally pay more then it opens the door for miner discrimination and tx fee bidding wars.

You should find that the difficulty of the shares your submitting is also increasing. Perhaps simpleminer isn't showing that, but it's very likely the case. |

It goes through many "Getting next job..." "Job didn't change" cycles before it submits a share. As long as that's to be expected, then ok. Can anyone recommend a particular version of cpuminer? |

Bought in, love the software, hate the name. We need a nickname that rolls off the tongue stat.
Edit: it's funny to me that it's borrowed from Esperanto since it actually carries over a design flaw - no way should the name of an international currency include a rhotic consonant, those are really hard for a lot of people to pronounce, depending on the phonology of their native language.
