To be fair, a drop from 89 to 87 is not like a drop from 10 to 8 a few months ago. That's only, like, three percent? If it was a drop of 5-10 USD at once, then we would be talking.

How can you drop $11,300 into buttmoney and still be able to sleep at night?

Large numbers of small trades can get aggregated into a single order. So it's more likely to be a lot of small idiots rather than one big idiot - though that's still a possibility.

We still wouldn't be talking, that's happened at least three times in the last month.

I just found a major security flaw on a very major e-wallet site and I wasn't even looking for it. They also promote their site as secure and "The safest way to store your Bitcoins." so I'm sure you can find out what site that is. Wow, just wow. "We're secure guys don't worry about the obvious glaring security holes " and they wonder WHY their bitcoins keep getting hacked.

What's you find? This is as good a place as any for a disclosure report!

Check to see if everything is encrypted by the modulo of the ASCII value of "RON PAUL 2016."

After you signup and all that jazz and you create a new "account" (fancy word for wallet) and when you do up at the top it shows the ID for that wallet, yeah they didn't put any security checks to prevent people from checking out other peoples wallets. Even though they are "encrypted" the page even shows you what that person put as a "clue" for the password. I'm sure they all picked hard to guess passwords for their encrypted privet wallet keys not to mention it also gives you the send bitcoins option. So they didn't even bother to do a security check to make sure you have permission to even be seeing that wallet and all the data that comes with it, but you know the wallets are encrypted so they are safe!

It would not quell dozen of loud and stupid people who can't see almost epic difference between medium computer case very noisy
machine consuming 600W+ and one that does the same job but fits in a palm, is silent and consumes 60W. Because of those people,
there are no regular updates.

Of course it's silent. It doesn't do anything.

My pet rock has been silent for 30 years now. Are you going to give me $30k if I call it a mining rig?

Oh, hey, look, BitCoin is working exactly like banks do now.

It's hard to watch the price go up day after day and not get caught up in the hype I have to say. I'll be very tempted to make a speculative bet after the crash though.

Well to be fair, most bubbles get started by speculative 'investors'. Most people falling for these types of things just look at the skyrocketing price and think, "Why didn't I buy in at [Low_Price] I could have made $$$" and buy in immediately, hoping they can still get on the 'ground floor'. They assume they're skilled/smart/lucky enough to predict an eventual crash (but don't), and end up losing.

Then they hit themselves by saying "Goddamn why didn't I get out at [High_Price], I could have made so much!". They chalk it up to a 'learning experience' and do the exact same thing all over again.

Even better.

code:

var decodedKey = Crypto.PBKDF2(miniKey, 'Satoshi Nakamoto', 32, { iterations: count });

Nothing secret since it's in the javascript sent to every browser lol.

Edit: StrongCoin's wallet for the fees they get from every transaction: http://blockchain.info/fb/1strongx

258.60583088 BTC

An easy $23k give or take worth just from the fees alone.

Ok I feel really weird, like I just rolled around in the poop. I just sent .01 butts to a instabutt wallet by guessing a buttcoiners password.



This is clearly the currency of the future.
