Cool. I don't have any other smart device other than a computer, so I installed JAuth and set it up so that *everything* requires authentication now. Whew! Glad I found this thread. I feel a lot safer now.
One newbie question left though - how do I backup the "secret sauce" that JAuth requires to do the authentication? I don't want to be locked out of my account if my hard drive crashes.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Ah nevermind, I see that I just need to re-do it, and this time make a backup of the GoogleAuth code ( and GPG that backup as well of course using my master key )

It could be an attempt at script injection or some kind of username probe for forum usernames.

Just as a security tip to all: It's probably not the best idea to use any remote service as a store of your coins! As for assets, the P2P asset exchange which resembles Bitcoin will be awesome

~~~~~~~~EMAIL REPLY~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi, Impact is mainly trading with virtual currency on vircurex like btc, litecoin,iocoin ix coins gg etc.\ I gave some shares away for free for advertise. Thanks and good luck Ralf > Hello, > > I just received 100 shares of IMPACT. Mind if I ask why you are giving > shares to me? Also, what does IMPACT do exactly? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, sometimes asking the issuer is much faster than wondering. Some guy just trading a bit on large spread small exchanges with a few bitcoins and just giving out the shares to that, it seems. Maybe he could post a thread around the forum. I'll email him about that.

Perhaps usernames on glbse should be replaced with a public bitcoin address ? Then if the asset issuer wants to they can hold bitcoins there and its publicly auditable

Then if the asset issuer wants to they can hold bitcoins there and its publicly auditable I think that is actually a really good idea. Would be great to know that GIGAMINING or BITBOND have X weeks of dividends 'in the bank'.

Would be great to know that GIGAMINING or BITBOND have X weeks of dividends 'in the bank'. I don't send money to GLBSE for dividends and coupons until just before they are going to be paid, as they are extremely secure where I store them. Plus, this wouldn't work with GLBSE's BTC storage system. It is much more secure than leaving the coins in 1 wallet with 1 address.
