hell, the developers were loving bragging about sidestepping apple's tos awhile back... which is why i sent apple the link to their bragging. that was about a year to a year and a half ago and i just got back the standard "we'll look into it" response from their low-level customer service so i doubt i caused the app's removal but i like to pretend i did

if you still have a link to where they were bragging, you should share it

the fact that none of the tech news sites have exposed the bullshit behind the apple vs bitcoin story is very telling about the quality of tech "journalism"

I Have The Worst Luck (self.Bitcoin)

submitted 1 hour ago by skilliard4

So I've been waiting for weeks for a certain processor on Tigerdirect to go on sale, and I planned to buy it with Bitcoins. I needed it as an upgrade for my gaming rig.

Just as the item finally goes on sale, Bitcoins value tanks 15%, much more than the processor is on sale for.

Hoping the market corrects itself before the price of the CPU goes back up in 4 days, I really was hoping to buy it.

[�]Sandorra 4 points 1 hour ago

Though I'm nowhere near an expert, wouldn't that make sense considering they claim to be fixing technical issues?

[�]kyebosh[S] 1 point 58 minutes ago

Planned downtime would redirect to a status page, or at least notify somehow. I'm guessing tech failure at best.

[�]chipbag123 -2 points 42 minutes ago

Tech failure, yeah that's probably it. Maybe they want to be more green and shut down their servers for 24hrs every year? Gotta be ecofriendly! :P I had BTC in there, less than half a coin, so it's not that bad. I hope that Mark and all the executives get kidnapped by Russians and then get tortured to death... or maybe their children are tortured infront of them, then they're killed... That would make up for .44BTC, would it not?

Dogecoiners Held A Party in The Financial District, And It Ended With Them Putting Their Logo On The Wall Street Bull

The burgeoning digital currency Dogecoin � which is like Bitcoin except that the driving ethos is not libertarian but rather lolz � held a big party last night in NYC�s Financial District. Well, to be more precise, the growing number of the currency�s fans (who hang out on the R/Dogecoin page on Reddit) threw the party.

We only had a chance to stop by for a minute, these photos should give you an idea of what it was like.

There we people in costumes alongside the Shiba Inu puppies that are the coin�s logo.

There was a DJ.

There were Dogecoin T-Shirts for sale, and apparently they were made in one day with the help of the Reddit community.

We had to leave early, so we probably missed some festivities (apparently there was a raffle).

But then later on in the night, the party made its way to Wall Street�s famous bull.

These photos were sent in to us by Dogecoin enthusiast Justin Friedman.

the Australian Tax Office (ATO) is looking to be the first to tax bitcoin

http://www.afr.com/p/business/sunday/ato_weighs_bitcoin_rules_L3OCwRm31Mu4MdyEIzSMHK

Investors and businesses that trade using the digital currency Bitcoin are on notice as the Australian Taxation Office plans to be among the first to crackdown on undisclosed capital gains and GST at tax time this year.

In a statement provided to the Financial Review�s Sunday program on Channel 9, ATO senior assistant commissioner Michael Hardy said the tax office has been monitoring the growth in the numbers of Bitcoins along with other alternative payment systems and will provide further advice to taxpayers before June 30.

Mr Hardy added that �paying for goods and services with new types of payment tokens such as Bitcoin still means that the seller may need to account for GST and/or include the income in their business tax return.

�The buyer may also need to keep records of the value of the purchase and account for the tax consequences if it represents a business expense or if the purchase is an asset which may be subject to a capital gain or loss.�
