Please try to keep submissions on topic and of high quality. Just because it has a computer in it doesn't make it programming. Memes and image macros are not acceptable forms of content. If there is no code in your link, it probably doesn't belong here. App demos should include code a...
It is all about manipulating people. It is a well known fact that people react with greed and fear with all financial instruments. If the price drops rapidly, people get freaked out and will sell, "before they lose everything." If the price rises rapidly they use greed and want to buy...
This is the way I look at it too. Did anyone think they weren't doing this? Does anyone think they'll ever stop? It doesn't matter how much anyone protest or riots. The people at the top understand that when shit hits the fan, what keeps you seated as the world leading nation is your ...

I'm not pro-regulation of Bitcoin, but then Bitcoin in and of itself cannot be regulated (though if they tried really, really hard, they could block transactions). I wouldn't say I'm pro-government in general either, but there's certainly benefits to having one vs not having one (alth...
I feel that this entire process has been an education in why we are going to triumph. This system is broken. I sent two numbers in a plain text email that passed through hundreds of hands (servers, owned by private and public parties) on their way to a group of a dozen or so associate...

So it takes 60 minutes to do a bitcoin transaction where I send money from my address to yours. Bittoll operates as a transaction server, where you can request a toll from someone, and they can pay it (assuming they have money on the server) in ~200ms. Now the tricky part is getting m...

always when I bootstrap an webapp it takes me hours to struggle around with different frameworks, helpers and lib's until I think this will work out. I would love to hear what you guys are using. I use sinatra (for dynamic) and nanoc (for static) things. Recently started with sass and...
There is another email sent regarding this. It is not may not be a Dwolla-specific matter and may be much more important than people yet realize. The DHS is apparently seizing Mt. Gox's Mutum Sigillum's accounts (presumably Dwolla accounts): As of 12:13 PM on 5/14/2013: Due to recent ...
I've worked in the computer security industry almost since it was created, and I've heard a lot of misconceptions on this subreddit about how to securely use bitcoin. I thought it would be helpful to provide a few common sense steps anybody can use to safely secure their bitcoins. You...

Well, the thing you have to understand about ESEA is that with 1.6, for about 5-6 years they were the only way to play. If you wanted to compete, you had to use ESEA, otherwise you were playing competitively against hackers or people that weren't nearly as good which meant it wasn't a...
Their strategy maybe "if you can't beat them, join them." Pretty smart if you ask me! Is it a bad thing? Certainly not: any acceptance by major company like that is going to send Bitcoin into the stratosphere! What they're saying is that they don't see Bitcoin as competition, rather i...
JA: And that is primarily I believe as a result of technology that enables fiscalization . So fast bank transfers. The IRS being able to account for lots of people, it sucks people into a very rigid fiscalized structure. So you can have a lot of political change in the United States. ...
Hi, we are Mt. Gox. Ask us anything. Dear Bitcoiners, Mt Gox customers, and Redditors. The past few days and weeks have been a rollercoaster ride to say the least, and while we are still under constant DDos attack (more so than usual) we wanted to take the time to do an AMA on Reddit ...
They never mentioned bitcoin once. They described the need for bitcoin without mentioning bitcoin. Thanks to weed I typed out the entire end of the show for everybody to read if they want to read it: The narrator is not quoted. I didn't the names of all the people who talked because I...
1) The order process is much easier because the buyer KNOWS that you can't do a chargeback. All of the silly logging in, entering the three digits on the back of your card, entering the phone number of your card, etc... all go away. You give ONLY the information that is actually neede...
Disclaimer: I'm not associated in any form with Mercado Bitcoin other than having done trades there. Luckily for me I didn't have any money there at the moment. Mercado Bitcoin, the largest – and only – bitcoin exchange in Brazil, has been offline for almost a week now. For the first ...
At this moment in time, you can deposit fiat currency into Bitcoin ATM and receive bitcoins to your account. You can also send bitcoins and receive fiat currencies (although there are some difficulties in the latter due to network-specific requirements).
You're fine. The government will be content to gradually steal your money through inflation. The EU is a special case because the provinces of the EU are all so different and are still semi-independent. Most likely the Euro will collapse and the EU will become nothing more than an int...
I love how the reporters call it "taking a haircut" when the government simply decides one day to take people's money. I'd love to see this turned into a poster for Bitcoin, a big creepy government barber, maybe Uncle Sam as a barber, shears at the ready, creepy smile, standing behind...
Join bitcoin-dev for further updates (please don't pester while people work). Looks like the chain was forked by a bug in 0.7. 0.8 nodes didn't suffer and carried on. A solution is in the works. What do I do??: If your not mining, just sit tight. If you are mining, ask your pool. 0.8 ...
