Can you show me the "or we will harm you" evidence? Or are you just making an assumption, and since you're Erik loving Voorhees, we're supposed to appreciate sensationalist thread titles?
[–]evoorhees [S] 9 points 4 hours ago
It seems you don't know how regulation works. A group of individuals make some rules, and if you don't follow their rules, they steal your property, your time, can destroy your business, and often if they desire, throw you in a cage. Interesting that the rule itself doesn't seem "sensationalist" to you, but my headline does.
[–]IttyBittyCoins -1 points 3 hours ago*
It seems you don't know how regulation works.
The fine for fishing without a license in NY is usually around $50. I guess that qualifies as harm under your definition.
I think it's important to provide accurate titles based on factual information known. EDIT: The license is hosed, which is why you smartly operate out of the US. There's no reason to have thread titles like the one you shared. Clickbait is clickbait. Actually, I'm also surprised you're linking to Coindesk. But that's an entirely separate discussion.
[–]PhiMinD 1 point 2 hours ago
Yes its called extortion and if you do not comply with their extortion they will escalate the situation to the point of physical violence. Dont you understand how government works? It can only exist through a monopoly of violence.
[–]IttyBittyCoins 0 points an hour ago
So, garnished wages for IRS back taxes and restitution is the same thing as violence?
[–]PhiMinD 1 point an hour ago
IRS is an extortion racket as well. Do you not see why the government has to use inevitable force to maintain its presence?

BFL is over. I just got a call while being on vacation that no one will be getting paid to work there any more, so anyone stupid enough to workwithout pay will still be there. I'm going to miss my best bud Bruce Peterson, who showed me the ropes on how to make heat without light and watch the satoshis flow. And for the love of Satoshi wash your rear end prick.
If anyone is truly interested in making sure they don't see another scamming day hurry up and call Capital One to let them know that they'd be making one of the biggest mistakes trying to salvage that snakepit.

What is the current status of the refund queue?
Posted on 06 May 2015 08:45 AM
Currently, the company has very little money. We are trying to survive and generate enough revenue to pay refunds to all of our amazing and wonderful customers who have been waiting such a long time. We cannot apologize enough for the delays you have experienced. And we cannot emphasize enough how much we want to send your refunds.
In an effort to survive longer, the company has laid off all employees (including managers and executives). The employees who are still working are doing so without a guarantee that they will be paid. Because of our small staff, we sincerely apologize if we are unable to respond to your emails, tickets and voicemails quickly during this time.
We will notify you by email when your refund has been sent to the destination you have specified. We hope that we will have the opportunity to contact you soon.
As always, we thank you for your tremendous patience.
We are still, currently, refunding requests made on August 6th, 2014.

Breaking the house
How Primedice was exploited for $1M in Bitcoin
This is the story of how we lost around $1 million worth of bitcoin to a hacker who exploited our online casino’s RNG system. This happened last year, but we’ve decided to share our experience for transparency and so that others can learn from our mistakes.
August 2014
Shortly after the launch of the third version of Primedice, our team faced an adversary that challenged the existence of our website. Our team had nearly two years of experience building bitcoin gaming sites, however I personally had pretty limited coding experience. We were under heavy pressure to avoid further delays and released after a short week of closed beta testing.
The heist began immediately after launch with two unusual players, Nappa & Kane. We noticed unusual betting patterns from both those accounts. Kane was automatically cashed out, we reviewed Nappa’s bets and thought they were highly unusual but could find no wrong-doing and cashed him out after a delay and a brief email exchange
September 2014
After getting spooked by his delayed cashout on Nappa, the exploiter waited a few weeks and created a new account named “Hufflepuff”. Hufflepuff was the largest bettor Primedice had ever seen, he was often seen betting upwards of $8000 worth of bitcoin every second for hours on end. Our entire team was shocked that Hufflepuff continued to beat the house edge (1%) and stack up more and more profit over time.
We were highly skeptical of his winnings and were forced to hold his cashouts time and time again to investigate and each time our developers could not find any wrong-doing. We couldn’t justify greatly delaying his withdrawals when there was no evidence he was cheating. There was also strong incentive for us to promptly pay him, so he’d keep playing. We heavily explored what we thought was every possibility, ran simulations and did the math and came to the conclusion that he was just incredibly lucky.
The Discovery
About two days after sending his final withdrawal placing him above 2037 profit on the Hufflepuff account alone, our main developer detected the exploit after we found a handful of accounts sharing the same server seed.
To understand how Hufflepuff beat our system, one must understand how our provably fair system (RNG) works. A user is shown an encrypted random value (the server seed) before they bet and they must also submit their own random value (the client seed). These two random values are combined and used to determine win or lose. The random encrypted random value used for the bet then is shown to the user after the bet so that they can be guaranteed that their bet is not rigged. You can find the detailed and in-depth explanations of provably fair here:
https://primedice.com/verify and http://dicesites.com/provably-fair
Part of the functionality of our site is that we have to give out decrypted server seeds (to assure users no bet manipulation has occurred) and put a new random seed in place, essentially trashing the old revealed seed. Hufflepuff found a way to “confuse” our server, and made it give out a decrypted server seed that was also an active seed. This was done by sending it more requests than it could handle in a small time period, think hundreds of requests in under a second. The result of this is that he knew all the information required to corroborate the outcomes of his bets. He knew whether if he would win or lose, and could wager accordingly.
We figured this out after frantically checking our servers after a eureka moment. We suspected something could have been going on and eventually realized the possibility of a timing attack described above. Our database had seeds that were both inactive and in use at the same time all connected to Hufflepuff. Along these “Schrödinger” seeds existed many seemingly unused seeds connected to the same accounts, indicative of the rapid fire of requests needed to obtain these.
Déjà vu
Unfortunately we detected this exploit after cashing out Hufflepuff and his handful of accounts 2400+ coins (roughly $1M at the time). Given the nature of Bitcoin there wasn’t much we could do but take it on the chin. We reached out to Hufflepuff via his bitcointalk forum account and demanded the return of the coins, however this backfired unbelievably hard. It turned out that our developer had improperly patched the glitch. In response to our message, Hufflepuff created a new account named Robbinhood and proceeded to rapidly win 2000+ additional bitcoins using a work-around to the patch. He was unable to cashout more than 50 or 60 coins this time around as our site hot-wallet was drained.
Shortly after he privately sent us this message which was preceded with the dox of a primedice employee:
“Your offer is declined. Your demands are laughable. I’m happy to walk away and leave you be, but if you’re going to take this further, then so will I. I don’t think you want this to go further. I actually enjoy this poo poo. Your move. Oh, and by the way, there are some pending withdrawals that you need to process.”
And that was the day the house didn’t win…

Twitter ChangeTip Campaign for Greece - #GreeceBitcoinDrop (self.Bitcoin)
submitted 2 hours ago by evoorhees
Let's be generous and have a little fun on social media with ChangeTip.
Step 1: Find some high-follower profiles of Greeks. A source I found: http://twitaholic.com/top100/followers/bylocation/Greece/
Step 2: Send tweets to them. I used the following: "Banks frozen in Greece? Try Bitcoin instead... here is $5 @Desp1naVandi $5 @ChangeTip #GreeceBitcoinDrop #grexit #euro #eurozone"
Step 3: Save the world! (nothing wrong with a little hyperbole)
Remember that any tips you send which don't get collected will return to your account after a while (a month I think?)
ProTip: Don't send anything less than $1 because then it's just annoying. Best to send $5 or $10 tips.
Not sure who started this FYI - I've seen @BarrySilbert, @theuncoder, and @flix1 participating
[–]evoorhees[S] 4 points 16 minutes ago
When prices are falling, haters yell that Bitcoin is failing. When prices are steady, haters yell that Bitcoin is stagnant. When prices are rising, haters yell that Bitcoin is full of pump and dumpers.
Meanwhile, world domination continues.
[–]evoorhees[S] 9 points 1 hour ago
Some people think that just because Bitcoiners will get rich as adoption grows, that necessarily means all motives of Bitcoiners are evil. Lots of people seem not to understand that profit tends to be a result of helping other people - indeed, that is the essence of business.
[–]Half-X 1 point an hour ago
I would be surprised if even a single person of those you tipped, bother collecting the bits. They are mostly rich and lazy singers and most important the kind of people that would do anything for things not to change.

Then the money comes back to me and I've only wasted 5 minutes. I'm comfortable with that risk.

"making bitcoin have more than 2 tps"
quote:
[–]thieflarBullish -10 points 1 day ago*
You can transact more often than 2.7 tps, just not instantly (i.e. confirmed in the next block).
Nice attempt at FUD though. Keep it up!
[–]thieflarBullish -4 points 1 day ago
I can make 100 transactions in 1 second. That is 100 tps. They will all be confirmed within 1 block.
What about this are you having trouble with, exactly?
[–]thieflarBullish 1 point 1 day ago
It's incredible that you're having such a hard time understanding this.
It is not "fantasy" that >100 transactions-per-second can be relayed through Bitcoin. The fact that I can go demonstrate this right now means that it is very much a reality. No matter how hard you shove your fingers in your ear and how loudly you shout "LA LA LA LA LA" to yourself, you won't be able to change this fact.
Everything I have said in this conversation has been 100% true, and empirically verifiable.
What is perhaps confusing you, and leading to your present embarrassment, is that the phrase "100 transactions-per-second" on its own doesn't encompass enough information to determine whether or not it would meaningfully impact the Bitcoin node mempool. This is because it is just a rate, without a time interval accompanying it. Once you specify the time interval, e.g. "100 transactions per second for 10 seconds", then we can answer the question of whether or not all of the transactions are likely to be confirmed in the next block. In this example (100 transactions per second for 10 seconds), it is a total of 1000 transactions which could easily be included in a single block.
Now, also keep in mind that thus far I've been talking about these transactions being included in the very next block. In other words, Bitcoin can easily process 100 transactions per second without these transactions being delayed at all, provided the time interval that these transactions are being continually made is relatively short. Once we start to factor in the fact that "you don't actually have to wait for a single confirmation on 99.9% of transactions, because the likelihood of a double-spend even on 0-conf transactions is so incredibly low in most cases" things start to get really fun.
And then we get to things like primarily-offchain companies (e.g. Coinbase, Circle, and ChangeTip)...
Again, SFYL.
bitcoin can totally have more than 2 tps. just not on every second.

Bitcoin kiosks are placed around town that will pay you for picking up trash and other simple tasks that benefit the city. (self.Bitcoin)
submitted 12 hours ago by crazyflashpie
What kind of tasks would you be willing to do? for how much? (Anyone want to help me build this concept? )
[–]rockerjjt 10 points 10 hours ago
Maybe, incentivise the customer to dispose of the trash in a bin in the first place, by enabling a one time only micropayment that is released when the wrapper is placed in a bin. Could use a unique QR code of chip.
[–]Wiesenbocksbart 7 points 10 hours ago*
Print one unique multisig private key (sticker) on each packaging of a product. The second multisig private key is stored in the kiosk (or by the company). If trash is dumped in kiosk, private key will be scanned and btc, fiat or a free drink can be withdrawn. Only works with trash from company who is in the kiosk interest group. This could be an idea for openair festivals etc. If trash wasnt dumped in kiosk after ABC days kiosk can cash in the two other private key it holds.
[–]paulmadore 4 points 10 hours ago
This is kind of brilliant because we will have a guaranteed purchaser of the bitcoin: the town.
If functional, it could reduce the need for city employees and potentially the homeless rate. I've always believed that for unqualified positions, such as janitorial, the homeless shelters should be empty before any regular, housed citizen can even apply.
Anyway, I'd pick up dog poo poo in the dog park by the pound, some rational rate for it like $0.25 per pound or something. There'd have to be some system to ensure I hadn't brought in poo poo from elsewhere, of course, so you'll have to tack on a bit more for that, for a regular employee to oversee these workers in a given area.
[–]crazyflashpie [S] 2 points 10 hours ago
Yes, I couldn't agree more. This idea stemmed from pondering about the displaced workforce that will grow over time as automation continues to eliminate jobs. The tracking is the hard part and why I envision this as a kiosk rather than app.
quote:
[–]danielravennest 4 points 8 hours ago
The same automation that displaces workers will make work unnecessary. Here's how:
"Machine tools" are metal-cutting machines that make parts for other machines, including more machine tools. They have been automated for a few decades now (note the control panel). Hobbyists can and do build their own such machines.
A group of people bootstrap a "community machine shop" starting with hobbyist-level machines, but constantly upgrading to bigger and better ones. These are automated machines, driven by software files. Once you have enough machine tools, you make different machines, like a sawmill , or (concrete block press). With those, you can make parts for a house.
You can also machine parts for an engine and axles. From those you can build a tractor and attachments . Then you can grow food.
With food and housing taken care of, the community machine shop has grown into a mini-economy. You keep building out your capabilities with more machines, and put more displaced people to work for themselves, making what they need.
Where bitcoin comes into this is not all the machines have to be in the same place. If they are networked, the whole network can collaborate on the next machine, and ownership of the machines can be distributed. So when you need something made, you send out the parts files across the network, the parts get made, and eventually sent to you to assemble.
You pay for this with bitcoin, which you acquire by making other things for people in trade.
By trading, each person can specialize in things they like to do or are good at. The network as a whole covers all the basic needs people have.

relevant hypothetical: You were in BTC since mid 2010...you mined, maybe 5,000 BTC ... yea... 5,000 BTC!!! But...you saw Mt. Gox and while watching the rate, you saw it shoot up to $30....it was just $5 a few weeks ago! Holy poo poo...you better cash those coins out before they're junk! So what do you do...you cashed them out...got in around $26 because the market moves fast and it was already drumming downward, but who cares...you just made a cool $130,000 yea that's friggen Dope right! So now, BTC crashed to about $2 again...you're thinking COOL I just dodged that bullet!
Fast forward about 9 months...Its tax season...to your suprise, since you cashed those BTC into USD, you're now on the hook to pay a %40 Short term capitol gains tax, OUCH  So you've now paid 52K in taxes for that move...now...fast forward to March 2013 ... April 2013.....holy crap...your 5000 BTC COULD HAVE been 1.3 Million Dollars .... oh it looks like it just crashed down to $60...okay cool no biggie ... its just a ponzi in your eyes at this point anyway...you made your money and exited...the rest of those 'clowns' are suckers...you're not.
Now its november....Holy cow....the price jumped to a Grand ... you don't even like thinking what $5million dollars could have been like - you could have been Done...no more working...just retired...but you were greedy 2 years ago and you have long spent through that measly 80K after taxes and YOU'RE PISSED > NO
YOU'RE PISSED!!!!!!
(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
So now what? Well you do one of two things at this point:
Your guilt takes over and through irrational Fear Of Missing Out you sheepishly pickup a couple of BTC at the 900 price point 'knowing' that they could skyrocket again like they did for you before! That doesn't happen in reality ...so if you made that move...you're now super bitter with bitcoin because you lost BIG.
OR plan B: wait for BTC to crash back down to that sub $100 rate. How do you crash bitcoin? Make it seem like an undesirable investment...so undesirable that everyone else will dump it (in your eyes anyway) and you can slowly build your reserves back up, while making fun of everyone else in the process, while in the dark, you're actually scooping up coins with the same irrational hope of substantial monetary gain.

What do you think about all the bitcoin hate outside of the community? (self.Bitcoin)
submitted an hour ago * by juan08880
Everytime I see a bitcoin article published to the general public on the web, it pretty much always followed by around at least 85% of very negative troll comments trying to discredited bitcoin.
I cannot prove it but I'm pretty sure that a large part of the negative comments are made by professional trolls. My guess is that they are probably paid by some kind of anti-bitcoin lobbying to manipulate the general public opinion on the internet.
Anyway, what is your opinion on the subject?
[–]BitsenBytes 4 points 59 minutes ago
You're right on the money, they are paid trolls and industry shills...they know what's at stake and they want to at least slow down the progress and hopefully stop it while they get their own ducks in a row ....they just don't realize yet it's a losing battle.
[–]redrocketcoin 4 points an hour ago
It's because the sheep have been conditioned to associate the word bitcoin with the word illegal for many years now. Those are likely regular people saying what they think is the popular opinion.
[–]targetpro 2 points an hour ago
+1 For many people, fitting in comfortably with the herd is their life mission. I'm not going to try to bring their projections crashing down by disputing them. Reality does that just fine on its own.
[–]pb1x 1 point 53 minutes ago
It's herd mentality. You don't think the average commenter actually is well informed enough on Bitcoin to know if it's good or not do you?
They just saw some stuff about Silk Road and deflationary is bad talking heads and figured it sounds scary and bad, you scientists just leave well enough alone already!

Of course. It's the single biggest threat to their monopoly on power. Any time there is even a hint of an economic revolution in favor of the many, they squash it immediately. Malcom X and King were both allowed to speak out against racism for years, but as soon as they realized that the real struggle was an economic one, and that poor whites and blacks had more in common than anything, and that they needed to band together against the wealthy, they were both shot.
Just like SJW's and hardcore right-wingers are perfectly free spout racist vitriol all day. It serves to keep the lower classes divided rather than uniting against their real oppressors. If you were financially independent, would you care if someone called you a redneck, or a human being, or friend of the family? If you could laugh all the way to the bank, you wouldn't care at all if someone said 'kill all white people' or 'all blacks are criminals.'
There is a 'they,' but its not the shadowy Illuminati the conspiracy theorists think of. It's just thousands of wealthy powerful people motivated by self-interest and working with each other despite their superficial differences. The problem is that the results of this are no different than if there really were some grand conspiracy.
The working classes will continue to slave away for menial wages while they bicker about things that don't matter at all, while the wealthy are content to let them do it because it allows them to make whatever rules suit them. Bitcoin and all cryptocurrencies are a threat to that because they're a great equalizer.

Try to 'Western Union' me a penny.

Why don't you try sending the dollar equivalent of 10 bits with WU and see where that fee lands? Report back if you get below 5 cents (~200 bits, if I'm not mistaken?).

I'm completely lost and have no idea what's going on. I'll be at my bunker.
If you need any diplomatic or mineral stuff just call me. If you plan to nuke India please give me a 5 minute warning to close the windows!
Also Iapetus sucks!

according to reddit, what happened was that a bunch of the stress test transactions were sending dust to a known brainwallet, and this huge transaction was handcrafted by a miner in an attempt to consolidate the dust and reduce some of the utxo bloat.
or to steal all the dust becasue no rational actor would walk away from free penny shavings.

This is policy code, and miners not only can, but are expected to customise it. This isn't a developer issue, it's a miner issue - go out there and get miners to use this policy.
[–]coblee [S] 6 points 51 minutes ago
You know most miners/pools go with the default code. So having sane default code helps a lot. Plus if full nodes run with this code, these spammy transactions won't even be relayed to miners.
[–]luke-jr Luke Dashjr - Bitcoin Expert -4 points 44 minutes ago
Yes, and it's a serious centralisation problem. Having sane-but-crappy defaults is better than sane-and-good defaults to incentivise miners to choose their own policy.
that actually explains a lot
