Dent, I'm not sure what the which hunt is about, but the app I was using STILL doesn't show it as received. The new app I'm using does show it, despite it taking nearly a week to synch with the system. It's a new style of transferring currency and when all others are saying they received it and I didn't, I wanted to know why. Can you identify any other kind of currency of which doesn't show up when it is said to have sent?

DJ FC · 03-06-2013, 05:30 AM

Honestly dude how many times do we have to tell you that the transaction is done when it's printed in the blockchain and your shitty fucking client doesn't matter. Your software sucks. No idea why, but you can always verify a transaction directly in the blockchain as I have done for you twice now.

Who is selling them for $1?

My bad, terrible font made the bitcoin symbol look like a dollar sign

f3lix · 03-10-2013, 02:15 PM

How about them trading for $47 now?

Dent · 03-26-2013, 07:52 AM

~$75 Fuck.

Ugly Bastard · 03-26-2013, 09:57 AM

If I ever cash in the Bitcoin DJ FC sent me for four-figures I am going to send him a nice spiral ham at Christmas.

f3lix · 03-26-2013, 10:07 AM

The urge to collect a lot of these is becoming stronger.

f3lix · 03-28-2013, 06:51 PM

FC - please discuss how much attention you're paying to this explosion in price. What are you and your peers discussing at work?

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 03-28-2013, 07:25 PM

I know this is a thread I'll look back on and regret, but I still can't remove the doubts about the liquidity of the currency. Could you exchange bitcoin to $20000 in a week? What about when the value no longer is growing 200% a week? What if I invest 30,000 now and it drops 15% next week and stabilizes for 6 months? How long would it take me to find a cash buyer?

Only thing that makes me feel secure about all this is that I know if DJFC becomes a billionaire from bitcoins he'll be kind enough to drop each of his nubblies family members a mil.

?Challenging the dollar?: Bitcoin total value tops $1 billion ? RT News

Quote:

the founder of the Swedish Pirate Party, Rick Falkvinge, estimated that Bitcoin could capture between 1 and 10 percent of the global foreign exchange market. This implies that the price of each and every bitcoin would rise to between $100,000 and $1 million

ninjaface · 04-01-2013, 09:24 AM

Yeah, who's dick do you have to suck around here to get a bit coin?

f3lix · 04-01-2013, 03:18 PM

LOL at having 3600 valued at 100k each.

"Keiser believes that Bitcoin users and the currency itself have little to worry about, unlike most of Internet startups feeling themselves suddenly vulnerable to government oversight. Bitcoins are not issued by a central body, and rely on a network of verification nodes to regulate transactions; in the future, Bitcoin users may achieve enough political clout to defend itself in traditional arenas.

“As Bitcoin's price increases, the new Bitcoin millionaires and billionaires will use their economic clout to rewrite laws in favor of Bitcoin, the same way banks like JP Morgan or Goldman Sachs lobby government to write laws that favor them,” he explained."

Lulz, no.

Yes,

Yes they are. If Bitcoin only takes off in 3rd world countries I'd be over-the-moon happy. And it's 3rd world countries where it has the most promise.

Ugly Bastard · 04-02-2013, 01:52 PM

FC, just curious how many hours/week do you spend reading about and discussing Bitcoins?

Johnny Richter · 04-02-2013, 02:32 PM

Bitcoins will fail and everyone you've ever loved will die.

DDTempest · 04-02-2013, 04:01 PM

when are my two bitcoins going to be worth $2,000,000? I just need a rough estimate so I can plan my retirement.

AcTivE · 04-02-2013, 05:30 PM

i have a bitcoin stuck in my p-hole... $150 to whoever can get it out.

Maybe 10-20

Repugnant Abomination · 04-06-2013, 02:37 PM

I still have not received my bitcoin.

Dent · 04-06-2013, 02:55 PM

This is exactly what I would expect from someone that didn't ask for one within the 48 hour deadline (or at all from what I can see)

DDTempest · 04-07-2013, 08:31 PM

can we get a scrolling bitcoin price tracker at the top of the page?

But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
