The green line is weird on bitcoinium. It seems to be the price rounded to the nearest whole dollar price. See how it steps from one dollar to the next, never going part way between dollars?
Edit: you can see the effect even better here:
See how the line steps either side of the $67.5 gridline?
It seems to relate to the 3 decimal places at the top. Usually it simply shows xx.000 but occasionally it will show correct values. Example:

one of the most boring bitcoin nights in last few months... volume is like it's nvc, not btc
We've had days with extremely low volume (a few 10's of 000's) in the last few weeks. The current volume isn't so low at over 200,000. It's probably just a case of burnout, coinciding with the weekend

===OPERATION SHOCK AND AWE
===Date: Monday 2013-04-22
===Start time of event: 15:30 UTC
===Goal: Bring bitcoin price < $30 US dollars
Members, here it is, today's timeline of events.
15:30-15:45 UTC - Spread bogus AP press releases to 50+ national US and British media outlets and 100+ local outlets indicating exchange site Mt. Gox under investigation by Japnese government for securities fraud, with seizure and asset freeze soon
15:45-16:00 UTC - After initial publication of bogus AP press releases, spam story on reddit and upvote with sock accounts, spread panic in comments using sock accounts
16:00 UTC - Several sellers lined up for a coordinated dump of 250,000+ BTC which will crash the price to under 100 to correlate in time with publication of bogus AP reports
16:10 UTC - Massive coordinated http packet flood (distributed F5) from botnet of 1,000,000+ compromised machines on the following sites:
- https://www.mtgox.com
- https://btc-e.com
- https://www.coinbase.com
- https://www.bitpay.com
- https://www.bitinstant.com
- https://www.bitcoitalk.org
- http://s2.bitcoinity.org
- http://bitcoinium.com/
- http://bitcoincharts.com/
16:30 - 17:00 UTC - During the ddos, buy only from Bitstamp which will not be included in the ddos but was included in the coordinated dump.
17:00 UTC - Stop ddos, buy as much cheap bitcoin from MTGOX as possible as quickly as you can
17:00 or later - Bogus AP reports will be corrected / debunked as hoax, price will rebound
Potential profit 200-300%"
Well due the fact that Bitstamp is down due to an "unscheduled service outage" it's not looking good for their plan is it

it can't be possible that volume is so low, it must be some data lag... 15 trades in last 20 minutes??
Yea volume has been somewhat like this all day.. Slow day
No, it's not have been like this. It was not big volume but I've never seen last trade to happen 3-4 minutes ago. Don't think that's possible nowadays.
I think it's just a slow weekend. It happens sometimes. It was so slow one weekend someone started this thread about it:

I know what you're up to wall, I'm onto you. You can't fool me, wall. Nobody can fool me. Not after what happened last time.
Just do something already, wall, don't just sit there!!!!

My gut is telling me that it is not someone new, just the same old BS on a different day. See you guys on the low side of 90.
I think the wall owner got impatient. The bids weren't appearing in front of it fast enough so he gave it a little nudge. I agree with you in principle but I don't think we'll go that low when the dump finally arrives

I guess you're probably right, but 6k isn't that much. The bid sum has just touched the ask sum, might be crossing any time now. We should be at least at 117-118.
The volume is almost half of what it was during the weekend though.
"The bid sum just touched the ask sum" This doesn't really mean anything. Well, at the current scale of the chart, it does mean that ask sum is shrinking or bid sum is rising, or both. The Y-axis of bid sum and ask sum are scaled to their respective highs and lows, with no correlation to each other.
I do agree that we should be rising a bit based on a number of factors.
Volume is peaks at times when volatility is at it's highest. What day of the week it falls on is arbitrary.
The line to watch is the red line. This tells you if the bids are rising relative to the asks, and vice versa. Looking at that image it seems pretty stable with perhaps a very slight uptrend to bids recently

Love how he ran it up to 110 and then put a 5k bid wall @ 110 to hold the price.
Pretty sure the 5k wall is what was left of a huge market buy to $110. That's what wasn't filled from asks

We're gonna get an update from chart buddy in about 7 minutes, woohoo!
On a random note for those who use Clarkmoody - and use the sound ticker, what is your min volume? I usually pick 10. 100 is too rare and doesnt always happen in a smaller downtrend... but right now im using it and its doing fine.
Has there ever been a single 1k transaction? I know bitcoinity goes by the exact price, so 1000 1btc trades will show up as "1000 a few seconds ago" even if it was spread across hours.. but has there ever been a single 1k trade? I'd think so, but most seem in the high hundreds and split into small hundred chunks.
Yes, there was one in the recent madness. Saw it on Clark Moody

Just 100. Went down to 0.315. Just refilled.
Voodah, 100 isn't a wall. There are any number of people here who could put that up out of petty cash.
1000 is a wall
5000 is a wallzilla wall
The ultimate wall. 160k btc last year

trades like these do not happen out of the blue unless based on inside information. I bet we hear some big news tomorrow. Either positive or negative news may result in huge sales. The former is self-evident, as traders generally assume uptrend on positive news. The latter is more unique to gox because traders want fiat out and only way to do that is buy btc (lol).
can't wait for tomorrow
+1 exactly what I was thinking. The timing after the conference today is very interesting

The only way I think that might be wrong, is if we see a big dump on another exchange(s) soon.
That would imply the "insider" knows something bad and is packing up out of gox and dumping his coins on an exchange where he can transfer out his money.
Or they simply store the coins outside the exchanges until the storm settles

I.e., it is not a rally but a planned demolition. Single digits on the horizon my friend.

I don't think you have enough tabs open.
yeah i saw that and was like wtf!
When I was on IRC while Bitcointalk was down I witnessed a conversation where someone was surprised that another person had 755 tabs open because he only had 600 something. I was like, WTF?
How do you manage that many tabs??

Sorry for asking such a basic question but I'm still not sure I fully understand how to read these charts:
For example I took this order book print from Bitstamp 5 minutes ago. Doesn't it mean basically that there is a lot more depth in the bid side compared to the ask side? So isn't that a very bullish signal (more people want to buy than sell)? But I often see similar charts without very bullish comments, which makes me wonder if I'm not understanding some factor here?
http://i.imgur.com/nHAFfxP.jpgIt's what you can't see on the order book that you have to consider too. Some whales seem to wait until the bid depth has risen sufficiently, then they dump 2 or 5 or even 10 thousand coins into the bid side. I think that's why some people get nervous when the order book fills up on the bid side like that

anyone notice that MtGox also has 8000BTC ask wall at 170GBP, 6000BTC wall at 202EUR and 6000BTC wall at 285CAD.
So with the 6000BTC at 267USD, that's... a lot of BTC for sale.
Pretty sure they'll be the same coins. Gox uses some sort of cross-currency system to fill orders so I wonder if the wall is reflected in all the currencies used in that system

The red dragon is really falling. Not sure if the crash will come or not. Everybody is waiting for a price dump and as soon as it goes under 800 everybody buys coins like wild. I´m not sure anymore if we will easily go through the 1000$ because it looks not attractive to trade 1000 to get 1.
Trust me I won't buy like crazy just under 800...People forget that one week ago it dropped in the 400s and 1 month ago it was in the low 200s.
The sad truth is that there is no "buying like crazy" going on. If it continues to fall, a rout is much more probable than a buying frenzy.
China is falling, with lots of coins listed for sale and no corresponding buyers.
Bear in mind that China is currently sitting about 4% higher than Mt Gox and Bitstamp. It could level out once this level is reached

Hows about:
Bitcoin = Bits = 1 unit
cents = cBits = 0.01 units
millis or mills = mBits = 0.001 units
micros or mics = μBits = 0.000001 units
Satoshi or sats = 0.00000001 units
nanos or nans = nBits = 0.000000001 units (for when 1 Bitcoin = 1 Mega dollar or BTC1 = M$1 = $1,000,000)
This has flawless logic, but I still wonder about that coffee being 'two mills' and we probably need the 'bit' in there to keep it connected to Bitcoin.
So 'millibit', or back to 'embit' for me..
I like Bitcoin for full units (shortened to "coins" in common use), mBit for 0.001 units (shortened to "bits"), and Satoshi for 0.00000001 units (same term for common use)

Pros don't hope. They adjust the bets so that they win regardless. (If they are in the position to move the markets, they will)
And what about the pros who have taken the opposite position and also would like to win?
It's my observation that the most successful traders are not usually given to hubris.

It will be more useful if you can predict where the pullback will go to and from where. We all know that at some point it will go down a bit.
One year ago I predicted that it will cross $100, hit $300, crash, and stabilize several months at around $120.
Then I earned the 1000s of btc that I sold 2 weeks ago
This time it is possible to be different. I try to give good advice to become a more trusted member of the community.
You sold when the price was about $430 and now you're hoping for a crash to get back in

Can someone explain to me in simple terms for this trading simpleton what the green and red lines that extend past the chart on the right on bitcoinwisdom represent?
For example, right now the green line is much taller than the red line. The red line is almost flat extending out to the right. If you don't know what I'm talking about, I'll get a picture and circle it.
Green line is the bids on the order book, red line is the asks on the order book. Basically the height of those curves at any particular price represents the cumulative sum of the bids or asks above or below (respectively) that price.
So the "flatness" means nobody is trying to sell coins above a certain price (red line), but lots of people are trying to buy them for cheap (green line).
Pretty sure the red line is the bids and the green is the asks. As the red line gets eaten the price goes down and vice versa

Here's what I'm pulling out of my ass: if the day ends with the 1D candle in green territory and if tomorrow we also get another green candle, then choo choo is more likely than trainwreck.
Nevertheless: every day that passes with btcusd over 800 makes this new price range generally accepted and hence a return to the 500's less likely. In which case I'd kinda feel sorry for rpietila because he has made some great contributions to the forum. While being happy for myself of course

700 was mentioned but pretty sure this was a guess. A little while back he stated he'd sold "two weeks ago" which put his sell at 430. Of course when I pointed this out he quoted me, edited my quoted statement, then deleted my original post

It may bounce off $266 and end up at $600 or so.
550 has held so far. That was my guess in the poll so fingers crossed

pure speculation here, but what do you guys/girls think are the chances that Loaded or similar has something to do with those old moved coins and they have potentially been sold/are going to be sold off an exchange, presumably to a Chinese buyer?
That seems pretty reasonable at first, but I thought he was going to buy coins?
He might have found someone who wanted to buy coins at too good a price though. Hmm...
He is buying. But that means someone must be selling to him so
they may have moved the coins. However, I'm not convinced the coins are going to cause the price crash that people are speculating on because those coins could have moved for any number of other reasons

If you filter for a shorter time scale, it becomes clear that it's nowhere near the late nov/early dec bubble.
http://i.imgur.com/zes28E0.jpgCurrently, bitcoin has the same levels of media attention as when it was in the 300s. Mostly from econ/spec sources who are talking about 2014 picks. In a few days it might be even substantially less.
oooo, I assumed they were referring to the April bubble.
Edit: And that is still not "1/10th". It could also be considered positive if the current interest is from economics and investment circles.

Yeah, the last dump he warned us of did not happen.
And I shorted my coins margin trading due to his words, now I own 0 BTC.
Lol.
Shit ain't funny bro...
The strange thing is that the last time he said anything like this was "Large movement possible soon. Guess the direction." on Dec 14. Then between Dec 16 and Dec 18 the price fell from about 900 down to 450. That's a pretty decent dump so I'm surprised you didn't make a killing on it

Note that he doesn't say anything concrete in his posts. That's so he can weasel out of people calling him on his BS. Much like a palm reader. My hunch is if he wasn't just pulling that Dec 14 advice out of his ass, he had inside info on Chinese regulation. He doesn't move the markets. Governments, businesses and sentiment move markets. But that won't stop him from making people think he does.
Loaded has pretty consistently give advanced warning of sharp movements but no-one should take anything said in here as gospel. At the end of the day everyone has to make their own decisions and in this case hyphymikey made a bad call. I know how he feels because it sucks when it happens. I've made a similar call in the past but luckily I was only trading a small percentage of my coins so the damage wasn't so bad

What is your target @ stamp adam ?

Thats it? You think we have resistance at 700 to 650?
I was thinking closer to 550.
I wish you luck sir. Don't miss the train.
For what little I am able to buy at the moment, I would rather take the risk.
I think the suggestion regarding dollar cost averaging is a good one. I got mine in a similar way. Each month I bought a fixed quantity at what I considered a reasonable price. Usually it was at the beginning of the month but sometimes I would delay my purchase if the price seemed to be trending down. Occasionally I got caught out and bought higher but I still accumulated some each month. Alternatively you could spend half your fiat (or 25% or some other percentage you feel comfortable with) when you see a reasonable dip to get your foot back in the door and with the remainder you could place other bids all the way down to 550. Then you will still make some gains if the trend rises and will have fiat handy to go back all in if circumstances look really good

At some point unknown is going to be 50-75% imo, because ultimately 2-3 more big time corporate server farms are going to pop up to be able to compete with BTCGuild, then when that happens Ghash, and these other 2-3 companies will be solo mining and BTCGuild will gain all the other smaller pools and end up being the bitcointalk user miner pool.

I will just note that the video seems to have been produced for the already converted. It uses the bitcoiner slang "fiat" to refer to ordinary money, for example; that will send frissons down the spine of the faithful, but should be lost on the common folk that the bank aims to (aehm) attract, no?
I was almost expecting it to end with "CCMF!"
"fiat" is bitcoiner slang now?
your credibility just took another hit
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_moneyOh. THAT is what you folks mean by "fiat"?
All the time I was thinking of THIS
No wonder I did not understand what bitcoin was all about.

The thread got slow, so let me ask another basic question from a newbie who has never used bitcoin.
Suppose I am an expert programmer and the operator of a lare bitcoin exchange. Suppose I keep several hundred thousand bitcoins in cold storage, split into (say) 10 lots with keys stored in pen drives, kept in safety deposit boxes of different banks. (Sort of like this guy here
http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/02/27/inside-japan-s-bitcoin-heist.html.)
Is there a way I could discover, by inspecting the blockchain or any other method, that I have already fetched and emptied six of those pen drives, and have only four more to go?
That doesn't take any expertise at all. The addresses are known so you simply set up a watch-only wallet to keep an eye on the balance. Alternatively you check the balance on blockchain.info or another such site.

Not much, 2000 left..
http://www.coindesk.com/mt-gox-files-bankruptcy-claims-63-6m-debt/"That same document also described fiat assets of $32.43m and liabilities of $55m. The assets include $5m “held by CoinLab” and another $5.5m “held by the DHS”. "
So $21 million in liquidity remains in Gox bank to be disbursed to clients. How much will go back to purchase real coins!
Once gox is done liquidated, we are going up..
But this also means they have to liquidate their remaining coins FIRST, if any left?
If this investigation is correct there's at least another 90,000btc that need to be explained:

In the future, when people start to question who owns most of the existing bitcoins, then better hope that there is another popular coin out there so you don't have to just withdraw fiat and game over. When people start to look into the amount of drug trade that went on with bitcoin in the past, and the amount of coins that have been reported stolen, then they will realize an important question: How to know if the criminal world isn't owning most of the coins in existence? People will question if investing new money into bitcoin isn't just filling the pockets of criminals who sold drugs and stole from others in the past. And then there will be one answer, that it's safer to start all over on a new platform that is not that suitable to the criminal element.

Thx for the answer tho.
I'd figure running the vanitygen on my computer would be better, but as im running on a mac, it seemed quite complicated to do so
(im not very familiar with github - any guide you could recommend me to get this done?)
Ah, now that is something I'm no expert on. Any time I've compiled something from source I've simply followed the instructions provided. I'm on a Mac too. I ran it on my work PC and typed the keys into a text file manually so nothing went through the clipboard. Then closed the window. I assume this was safe enough but then I don't use the vanity address for anything important so I wasn't overly concerned.

Is there a way to estimate, from the blockchain or other sources, the number and size of bitcoin transactions that are payments for goods and services, rather than due to speculation, investment, hot/cold storage transfers, etc?
I'm not sure you can separate the transactions that way unless you can identify which addresses belong to who. A certain amount of information can be deduced by searching for polls in the forums. I found this one which got a few votes, although it says nothing about the size of the transactions. No doubt some of the spending was for goods and services related to mining:

With GOLD you have at least something in your hands, no matter if it is really worth the price or not. Bitcoins are just bits, only virtual, nothing manifested. You cant hold it in your hands like money (yeah its only paper), gold, ice cream or whatever. I think most people, including me, have problems with this.
Worse. Bitcoins are not even bits. There are no bitcoins, only the transfer of bitcoins.
If you have problems with this though, the door is over thataway.
there is usb that u can store bitcoin on and also paper wallets
Yes, by analogy it is like a stone tablet with writing carved into it. What is a piece of stone worth? Sweet f a. But the missing stone areas that are filled with air (again worthless) give it value. Perhaps the blockchain can be thought of this way

Okay, let's give it 100 days!
(Anyone who bought at 450 is not worried of anything. Some who entered at 1000 and doubled down at 600-800 may be, but they have already shed a lot of coins so after 100 days we should be at about 4000)
Haha, bulls feel the need to
refute such accusations. When they don't refute, just ridicule, it's time to sell
But be honest, you have so many coins i'm guessing you could probably crash the market if you wanted. You have a vested interest in not doing this, but you must be very concerned.
Bitcoin is great invention, it has great support but it's no where near main stream yet. I have been a miner since Nov 2011, and I work in a very geek orientated environment, there are over 100 working in my team. They are all tech geeks and out of these people only maybe 3 or 4 have mined bitcoin. It's very very niche outside of our little world.
I have made some money from BTC but I could never recommend it to a friend or relative, because I couldn't live with myself if they lost a lot of cash as a result of my advice.
Also in the April 2014 crash bitcoin lost 75% without any fundamental reason for the crash. We're not at 75% yet and we have been plastered with negative reports on mainstream media. The only bitcoin stories I have seen recently on mainstream TV in the UK have been about gox and the crash. That sticks in peoples minds.
450 remains in my mind to high imho.
I dont believe you about having 100 miners on your team - because if you did and if you were in such circumstances, you would not be talking such shit. and spreading such FUD b/c it would neither be in your interest and it also would likely NOT even be within the thinking of someone who would put together such a team.. unless you happen to be working for someone else and undermining their business and not acting in their interest. In other words, to me, you seem to be full of it.... and that's being charitable.
He didn't say he had 100 miners on his team. He said there are over 100 people at his work. Of these 100 geeks only 3 or 4 other than himself have mined bitcoin, a percentage that seems pretty reasonable

I'm curious. What actually happened? (about the lost coins / laptop / sauna / beach / moon)
This is the gist of it. It's implied that some number of coins were lost but it's unknown if they were recovered. There's more if you have a look at this thread
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=174620.0Translated text from Finnish original added in blue in front of original text (thank you rebuilder):.....
-The staff of the hotel had entered the sauna space on at least 3 separate occasions in the first 24 hours alone, of a sauna reservation of 59 hours length in total, despite prior agreement to the contrary, it being clearly mentioned in the daily order [that the sauna is not to be entered at will, I presume] and repeated reminders of this. Some of the entries happened when we were not guarding the sauna since we had been asked to retire to our rooms by 24:00 at the latest, although the sauna was in our uninterrupted use from thursday 10:00 to saturday 23:00. Already on friday 10.5 between 00 and 12 o'clock personal items belonging to conference participants had gone missing from the sauna. Additionally the sauna had been cleaned, so that our ability to discover the full amount of lost/stolen property immediately as the conference was still ongoing was weakened.
The main host of the conference (Pietilä) ordered an internal preliminary investigation on the matter on fri. 10.5. at approx. 18 hours. He used as personnel mainly himself and acting host ["responsible/trustee host"] Roni Blomberg, a hotel employee by the name of "Butler Charlotta" and a representative of the maintenance company, "Mikke". By approximately 8 o'clock saturday morning, the preliminary investigation led to the understanding at least 1 bitcoin worth of property had been lost (repurchase value of identifiably lost items), but private keys possibly used to store bitcoins had been copied/destroyed to a greater extent. Among other things, Pietilä's Macbook Air computer was at the sauna for the entire night, thursday-friday 9.-10.5
Our estimate of the upper bound of damages is 100000 bitcoins (market value approx. 9,1 million euro, repurchase value with immediate market operation approx. 10,2 million euro). Damages are divided in two parts, copied and lost bitcoin private keys.
For copied private keys the situation can be sorted out by transferring all the bitcoins of all the participants to different addresses, at which point we weill see, whether they have in the meantime been unrightfully spent. Finding this out must happen a soon as possible (if private keys have been saved, no financial loss will be caused, unless they are unrightfully used before the legal owner transfers them to a new, safe address). Due to the extremely strict security requirements of handling private keys required to use large amounts of bitcoins, the operation is however labour-intensive and carrying it out must be done by each participant such, that most of the work can not be delegated. For example an inventory of bitcoins of Pietilä and the companies he owns/leads requires about 16 hors of work to complete. Pietilä's own consulting fees (list price
http://hopea.fi/bitcoin-kurssihistoria/) in April have varied between 600-2400 euro. This is one of the most urgent tasks, which will override most other markings in Pietilä's calendar for the week 13.-19.5.
The sum of money lost due to loss of private keys can not be reliably found out, but we believe the participants will notice if the sum rises to the thousands of bitcoins. This will be found out in about a week (a week is also our ETA for finding out the sum total of stolen bitcoins).
....
Risto Pietilä.
Now I try hard to minimize the risk to the well-being of anyone, and to raise the stakes in the game described as follows: if someone actually copied the private keys there (I had access to over 6000 bitcoins unencrypted, open in my computer browser windows during the time it was compromised), he will have to suffer the fact becoming public in its entirety + all the details, if he spends the bitcoins before I have the time to spend them myself. Due to extensive precautions involved, it will take me approximately a week of calendar time + several thousand dollars, to fully ensure that the bitcoins are safe, by sending them to uncompromised addresses. I plan to concentrate on that during this week.

Quoting somebody from a year ago at a panic moment when they thought somebody could have stolen their coins?
When they paid a hotel extra for no staff to be present during a certain time, only to have staff wandering through unannounced?
Wow, dude. I don't even know what to say. If you have to go back a year to barely find dirt on somebody, I think you have probably accomplished the opposite of what you were trying to do.
I've never found Risto to be anything but honest and concerned about everyone's well-being to the best of his ability. That's a rare commodity around here.
I quoted Risto because Dabs asked wtf these guys were discussing. Without the facts people were making assumptions. Having read the quotes again it's clear that the loss was some property with a value of 1 btc (~$120 worth) and the private keys to a large number of bitcoins which may or may not have been used by the intruders. This supported Risto's side of the argument, if anything.

this is the forgotten period of bitcoin history.
I listen to a lot of the bitcoin podcasts and stuff, and when they interview someone, they often ask "when did you first learn about bitcoin?"
The vast majority of the answers are either 2011, or 2013.
You never hear anyone say "oh, I heard about bitcoin in 2012 and I was instantly hooked"

I read the auction's terms: you cant place multiple bids (!) and the bids are sealed.
So nobody can place ten bids hoping to get all the lots?
you can place bids on all the block but only 1 bid and you don't get to see other peoples bids.
That sounds like a tender process, not an auction

i wish someone could explain to me this in english, I understand that a short is betting that it will go down, long the opposite, but how does it work in detail? can someone give me an example? like they were explaining it to a 5 year old? lol.
Why does it matter that there are 7300 shorts? because thats a shit ton?
Short: Somebody borrows bitcoins and sells them. Later he will buy bitcoins at lower price and returns them to the lender + interest.
Long: Borrow $$ then buy BTC and sell them later.
On Bitfinex, they have a claim option. If you buy 10 coins at $100, and the price goes up $20, you have $200 profit (10 coins x 20 USD).
You can sell 8 coins, and use the $200 profit to "claim" the remaining 2 coins at the original $100 price.
This means you don't necessarily have to sell all of the original 10 coins.
this just sounds so damned confusing, lol and extremely risky..But very profitable if you guessed the right way. Also, this only works by borrowing either coins or money, right? there needs to be a class on this somewhere, lol.. bitfinex explains it like you already know what you are doing..
It is gambling, and you can lose everything with 1 bad decision.
If you are at maximum leverage on Bfx, it
only takes a 20% drop to wipe you out.
"only" a 20% drop. Bitcoin volatility in a nutshell

Anyone knows loaded's stance on bitcoin these days?
I know he had a shit load of coins, probably around 80k
Must feel pretty shitty to lose all that money when price is going down lol. unless he sold
He bought the majority of his coins WELL below these prices.
40K of them are still in one address, that I think he still owns, unless he sold them all at once 11 months ago before the bubble.
https://blockchain.info/address/14j6jLececs66ZQ8ew6vTFNiEn2NupacWJHe only verified his ownership of the 40k in that address and if they're still in the same address then he must still own them. He was also managing another 160k for other people. Would be interesting to hear from him again
It was always fun when he made an appearance and Bam! 4-5000 coins would be bought shortly after. He was a trading signal

I think Adam was right about circle, looks like there's regular buys started on bitfinex.
I doubt that there have been very many buys on Circle.
I signed up for a circle account, and to verify my bank account will take 2-3 days.
Of course, I could buy immediately with a credit card, but I am NOT going to buy with a credit card b/c I am NOT going to take the chance of paying outrageous cash advance fees (which are likely through my CC).
Accordingly, IMHBO it will take a few days before the mass adoption of Circle will result in actual purchasing of coins.
I was able to link a debit card to my Circle account. I haven't made a purchase yet but I'm sure others have used this type of card successfully

Gotta say, that article seems incredibly misguided to me.
I think BTC might have issues with confirmation time right now that prevent a ton of in-store user adoption, but the long-term important advantage that BTC has, in my view, is transaction cost. Apple isn't going to reduce transaction cost one iota for anybody in the chain, from what I can tell, but somebody pleae correct me if I am wrong.
For ordering online for next-day ship, fo airline tickets, for anything that doesn't require immediate change-of-possession, there is a 4%+ advantage to using BTC.
I just wish somebody would integrate a BTC wallet with gasoline pumps and come up with a way for me to put gas in my car while saving that 4%+, then split that savings with the merchant.
Apple just provides a slicker interface for using the same system of usury.

this drop is bullish, because.... what goes down must come up!
bitcoin is not very secure in the eyes of most serious investors. It could crash and never come back up. The community is key...no community = no value. Early adopters who have not sold out yet will take profits and not look back till sub $100 imho ;\
Possible, but someone just thought it was worth buying 10000 bitcoins at a USD value of around 3.8 million. There are valid arguments both ways but I see this accumulation period as bullish

Ripple is definitely the future of money. Internet of value is Ripple. Bitcoin is its ancestor.
Can't you work out a deal with your sponsor, so that you get paid the same if each month you put out 1 totally non-informative post with 100 lines, instead of 100 one-line posts?
would it be enough for you to see the reality ?
It would have about the same effect as 100 posts that just say "ripple is great", except it would be much less of a nuisance.
In fact, wonder whether you even know what ripple is. I asked a simple factual question a while ago, and it went without answer.
Most Bitcoiners here really have no clue about Ripple. You can read it in how they tend to attack it: 'it's a scamcoin' (first of all, define what a scam is, then tell me if Ripple actually is a scamcoin? You will fail, given how long it has been in existence, given that the founders are bound to lock up agreements and simply because Ripple Labs is a business that has hired a lot of people by now). It is also easily noticable how emotional some of them get when something else than Bitcoin, so not specifically Ripple, is being talked about here. Because Bitcoin MUST succeed, and it WILL get to the moon. That is what they promises to themselves, and it must come true otherwise a lot of people here will be in financial ruin.
They all like to babble about the great 'fundamentals' behind Bitcoin, but I know for sure that at least 80 percent of the people responding here is in it for the money. The naive idealists will stay behind in the long grind downwards, ultimately holding the bag.
There may well be some good arguments to be had over the pros and cons of ripple. Unfortunately the Wall Observer BTC/USD thread is not the place for it as this is for discussion of Bitcoin. Trolling the thread with ripple comments is going to annoy people and result in getting yourself on ignore lists. I had actually unignored Walsoraj until he became a ripple troll. As for mah87, he obviously has nothing of value to add to the thread. I don't know why these guys don't take their thoughts over to the Alternate Cryptocurrency thread which was created for that very purpose

It seems safe to assume Tor is broken now.
erm did I miss something?
I second this question.
The article merely explains how the paper explains how bitcoin nodes can be pushed from tor and forced to connect through clearnet by triggering DOS protection against the tor gateway IPs.
Doesn't imply tor is broken at all.
btw: there's still a simple way to hide your IP when making a transaction: Hide in the mass of people using the same electrum (or obelisk, or ...) server. Yes, you have to trust the server operator to not store your IP or to not give it out. If you can't bring yourself to do that, just run your own server and get other to use it.
And isn't it possible to mask a wallets IP, by having one wallet with open connections and a second hidden wallet that only connects to the open wallet using connect=<ip> in the conf file?
The first wallet is used to supply the up-to-date block chain to the hidden wallet, which will only connect to one specific IP (the IP of the open wallet) making the hidden wallet completely invisible to all other wallets apart from the one it's configured to connect to.
This is clever. You will end up with two copies of the blockchain but I guess storage is cheap. But isn't the transaction untlmately broadcast from the same ip?

Hello,
I was just curious if there is any sort of bitcoin bug bounty?
I have discovered a serious bug in all previous (and current) bitcoin reference clients which would allow a denial of service on an arbitrary number of bitcoind nodes (as run by exchanges for example).
While this bug may not leak any private data, it allows you to shoot down bitcoin nodes that you are directly connected to. Arbitrary code execution may be possible (but was not tested).
The denial of service works, tested locally in Bitcoin 0.9 and 0.10 branches.
Newspapers or Journalists may ask me for a demonstration in private.
If anyone is intrested in a disclosure, I am asking 10 BTC for my time doing a write-up
including detailed explanations: 1LaV9xQvmd1gR4fYYWgFMpPXEgAwBYCQN1
If the balance will not reach 10 BTC, I will pay all amounts back. I will also cover the transaction costs myself.
is he a serious guy?
Might be a way to scam 10 BTC.
If he really wanted a bounty for it he could get a world from theymos or other rich bitcoiners that they would give him 10 BTC as soon they proof the bug is true
Read the thread.
that guy is the real deal.. he found the injected fatal flaw in nxt and won 100k nxt bounty. smart guy.

They have been doing pre-tests on the network.
The official full stress test is supposed to start on Thursday, September 10 at 10 a.m. GMT.
They were late starting one of their first official stress tests, but it was because they lacked experience. Now they have some experience I think they will start the latest test on time. I'm making sure I pay a high fee for anything I send on Thursday or afterwards,
https://bitcoinmagazine.com/21842/coinwallet-begins-pre-test-bitcoin-network-schedules-largest-stress-test-begin-september-10/
The Bitcoin network took a hit yesterday as CoinWallet ran its “stress pre-test” for about thirty minutes resulting in a “2-day delay and a 50 MB backlog” according to CoinWallet CCO James Wilson.
Reports are still coming in but it seems like most bitcoin exchanges and wallet companies were able to take the test in its stride.
Wilson also told Bitcoin Magazine today that the company will be running a major stress test on the Bitcoin network on Thursday, September 10 starting at 10 a.m. GMT.
From that article they state "The purpose of these stress tests [sic] is to see if the Bitcoin network can handle a barrage of very small transactions that will act like a DDOS attack" which is ridiculous because it IS a DDOS attack. It makes no sense to call it a "stress test" when in fact it is simply an attack on the main network where the effects could be easily demonstrated on the test network. It's pretty obvious they have an agenda, at the expense of the normal users of the network

Their test was 4 days ago and took about 2 days to chew through. The full blocks today looked unrelated to me.
Call it an attack if you want, but the fact is, 1MB max blocks make this form of "attack" much cheaper to execute as their old transactions get booted out of the mempool and they get the fees back to issue more transactions. Raise the limit and make them pay up.
I completely agree, I'm all for bigger blocks too. But I just find it really annoying the way they're describing these DDOS attacks as "stress tests"

Due to abuse, newbie-posted embedded images are now disabled on these pages:
- Topic display
- Recent posts / patrol
- Previews
They're not currently hidden in PMs or on some other pages (like a user's "show posts" page), though I might change that later if it seems necessary.
Disabled images get transformed into links automatically. When the poster becomes a Jr member, the images that he tried to post previously will automatically be re-enabled (though there might be a few minutes of delay).
This extends to all past posts as well as future ones.

Walls still there and increasing 5000btc to $600 on bitstamp
https://bitcoinity.org/markets/bitstamp/USDMore exchanges, so smaller walls as buy/sell options is spread out over various exchnages
I don't think you know what a wall is. You can't just point at half of the entire order book of unrelated small orders and call that a wall. A wall is a single vertical piece of the order book. For example one single order for 5,000-30,000 coins or a few very close orders for 5,000 coins each. You saw this frequently on gox. Occasionally they would stack like 50 orders for 500 btc each that were all 10 cents apart, as if anyone was fooled by that.
Now this was a wall!

^calm before the storm==bitcoin price is about to explode up north with leaps and bounds you were never expecting!! :-D weeeee++
Why? What fundamentals have improved recently?
Less new bitcoins to be found every 10 minutes. Like clockwork.
That was ages ago. The halvings don't just make the price go up straight away, it's just a loose guideline for when the price should go up for miners' revenues to stay the same or get higher. Basically, no fundamentals have improved recently and I don't think that storms are very pleasant.
Bitebits wasn't talking about the halving. He was referring to the fact that new bitcoins are generated every 10 minutes (on average) and that, therefore, there are fewer left to go around, which makes every bitcoin a little more valuable.

Let's hope it's a true compromise. Something like Segwit with BIP100 (or similar) would ensure this clusterfuck is far less likely to occur in the future. A very conservative system to increase the base blocksize over time, and Segwit to get lightning networks rolling. That's what I think should happen, but I'm bound to be wrong

Strictly speaking, bitcoin with segwit is the bastard child because segwit introduces changes to the code that dramatically alter the way it works.
