I see no advantage. Bitcoin Max has worked great for me so far.

Just wondering what happens if BitcoinMax.com would be hacked and the db somehow manipulated or destroyed.

I guess that wouldn't be a big deal, when there is a solid backup concept.

"Tonight's the night. And it's going to happen again, and again. It has to happen. Nice night."
Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

I would say the database would be manipulated or destroyed in that scenario.

Coins are in another wallet, likely the account at gpumax is not easily associated or withdrawn from since its not an automated withdraw process.

kind regards

As pirate has opened new account applications to be without a referral now in preparation for next month's changes the OP here could be updated:

Q. Can you give me a referral to BST?
A. No, I'm not offering referrals at all. You can PM pirate for an account now without referral, see his threads.

Q. Can you give me a referral to BST if I pay you XXX.YY btc?
A. Thanks for the offers, but please see the previous question.


I made a small withdrawal request earlier today, if you're waiting for a deposit to match it against that's np.

Just as an idea, you could always implement 2 options for withdrawals, say an ASAP option that costs a 0.1% fee if it's sent within an hour & a free of charge  'I'm not in a hurry option' that may take up to 24 hours & basically waits for a matching deposit/s to come in to Bitcoin Max.

I am also waiting on a withdrawal, my guess is that payb.tc is busy.

It may be on pirate's end, this from his IRC chat a little earlier today:

<pirateat40>   Hey guys, I have a lot of coins moving around (PPT accounts to BS&T accounts and BS&T to PPT accounts). It's not only causing issues with backend but it's delaying real withdraws to account holders by reducing the funds in my operating wallets. So, if you're moving funds to another account please let me know and I can do the transfer internally to ease the process. Thanks

<ineededausername>   Also, I just want to put in a word for pirate: it makes his day much easier if you schedule withdrawals in advance. Please do that so we can avoid queues.

<ineededausername>   Thanks

busy sleeping.

there's no way i could guarantee withdrawals within an hour because i can't be awake 24/7.

the database is fully backed up regularly.

there have been a lot more withdrawals than usual lately. i don't really know an exact reason for this, but that's also why some requests are taking longer than before.

For me personally, it's the Bitcoinica and Intersango issues giving me cold feet, more so than Pirate.

Mine received, many thanks, I didn't mean that you'd guarantee within 1 hour, but if it was within your daylight window & happened to be processed with an hour I think that ppl would be happy to tip you a 0.1% fee if it went through that fast

Q. How do I withdraw?
A. Via the withdrawal form in the Bitcoin Max login area. Withdrawal minimum is 1 BTC, and withdrawals may take up to 24 hours.

Just sayin

currently withdrawals are done in order of timestamp (with a bit of human judgement thrown in too*), i guess i could charge for 'priority' service where those ones would always get filled first before any others.

*if my balance is 30 btc and there are 2 requests, 90 and 10, i might pay the 10 first even if the request came in after the 90.

if blockchain.info goes wonky, that button won't help you.

because all it does is exactly the same thing that happens when you log in: it checks blockchain.info

so also, please respect piuk's resources and only use that link if you've actually deposited.

don't go hitting it 100 times a day while waiting for some random stranger to send you coins.
