Welcome to the new thread, we had to close the last one due to a group of people (look at there post history, they join threads and only attack) doing nothing but spamming the thread with FUD and lies, as there is no real moderation from the board the only way to combat this is by having a self moderated thread.

Now to save going back to the thread the lastest news is we have created a in wallet FIAT/bits p2p exchange, it is currently in beta mode and would be greatful if you could all help with the testing.

The next stage will build upon this with a ecommerce platform, which if the seller wants to can automatically sell the bits from a sale to fiat.  We also plan to make it so they get a free website version of there shop to attract more general public and new users from outside of the current crypto market.
 
 

Agreed and I don't think its fair so it was one of the reasons I decided to do the move to this thread, they should not be able to constantly get away with this unchecked.


Brilliant, I also noticed a lot of big accounts retweet the posts I made yesterday about the update, and I also made contact with a few crypto news sites about writing about the new feature and our future plans, one of them recently did a article on us, so hoping they would like to do a follow up now I can say more about our plans.

As long as the moderation is NOT TOO severe (such as deleting anything remotely negative), I'm all for self-mod threads.

When i signed up yesterday i never received the confirmation email, and now when i try to sign up again it says my username is already taken

Good criticism is another thing, but when that is pointless for to build development and only reason to cause panic I say its need to stop spreading lies. At moment bits is trying to gain exposure on among people and its not help if you are unsure if its good  investment. There are too many people burned their fingers with bad coins and fuders.

i did get the confirmation email eventually. arrived after a day or so.  

i have no doubt he can. maybe pm him your email address so he can enable it without confirmation email. but confirmation email, if problem, should be fixed. it limits the beta process if that doesnt work properly.

my problem was with outlook express, can you verify the following email id ( when was it sent out ? ): 1XJgZB-0007fB-Kd

i am an investor as well ( and coder ) but i think there are chances... if you look at the roadmap of what is coming ( dev, maybe make a neat pdf for that ) i think there is enough opportunity to make a profit on this.
There is a marketplace coming ( dont know if it exactly will be like silkroad ). But,

I dont know if i should invest in the dev or in the coin, or both, or none. I already had a discussion in investing into the dev in order to extend the current service into a standalone product. Yes, competing with localbitcoins. There are some bumps on the road that have to be eliminated.

The statement, if you are a real investor, that there are no chances, that is just short-sighted. sorry.

Lets not forget; the dev did a good job here. He is not putting up fake promisses and delivers. That is worth something. Look at all the other coins. False promisses, ripped/bought code and so on. Just there to take your money.

It should be noted by anyone considering whether to buy into this coin for the first time that, while not as brash and loud as many other coins, those that are being fake pumped constantly, this coin project has always made wonderfully steady progress. It has a dev team who listen and are interested in delivering functionality and utility to the development of the coin and wallet. More importantly, they deliver.

Time will tell and I believe those who support the coin now will be more than happy with where it goes over the next months.

Look how many coins have fallen by the wayside since BITS was first launched and this project still has plenty more to offer.
