Re: How much will Bitcoins.com sell for???

Probably less that Bitcoin.com, if that domain was sold.

I think so too, probably about 30-40% less than bitcoin[.]com

Nowadays I would say around $600,000, tomorrow who knows... price is as voluble as BTC itself right now.

Eth.

I agree with this price and analysis. It could go for more, but the 's' in "bitcoins.com" lowers the value significantly

Question: What financial freedom do I get out off Bitcoin if im poor as fuck and live in a country with high unemployment?

It actually has the potential to enable people in developing countries. There's a huge percentage of people who are unbanked or live with rapidly inflating currencies who can now have a form of secure banking with bitcoin. There are companies developing apps that will allow people to send and receive bitcoin on "dumb phones."

I'm on the other side:  (Note: I'm generally positive on most Bitcoin related subjects)
That video makes us look like a mindless cult of fools.
Bitcoin is not "my life" and "troll face" isn't original or inspiring ....sorry.

I agree. At first I thought I was going to get a laugh out of it, but no. Yawn.

Keep your btcjam loan requests at btcjam.

Why?

I'm still happy to do a loan outside of btcjam. I just assumed investors would rather have identity verification and third parties involved.

Hi guys,

I'm currently trying to raise 5.5 btc and have just under 3 btc left to meet my goal. It's for a website of mine that's established already, with over 1M posts and 40K members.

I have a loan listing on BTCJam that shows how much I've raised, details on me, my website, and exactly what the funds will be used for. Please consider taking a look. Thank you.

I am the owner of the domain name LiveFreeOrDie.com and I am putting the domain name up for sale. It will be listed in multiple locations, best offer over the next week or two gets it. Starting consideration at mid-low $xxxx (or btc equivalent).

"Live Free Or Die" is the state motto of New Hampshire and a phrase popular within the liberty community. I'd prefer to sell the domain to someone who supports pro-liberty ideals, which is why I'm beginning by listing here at bitcointalk.

I can be contacted at support [at] livefreeordie (-dot-) com.

Feel free to post or email offers and/or any questions you may have.

bitcoin social entrepreneurship?
by

on 07/02/2014, 21:39:44 UTC
Hi,

So I'm in university and I have an opportunity to give a presentation on a social entrepreneurship venture. Since bitcoin may be revolutionary, I feel like there are many companies that could fall into the description of social entrepreneurship.

What is a company that would be suitable for this presentation? They have to work with bitcoin for reasons to better society, other than just profit, but needs to be a for-profit company.

Any suggestions?

GUIMiner low/no hash rate discrepancy - what gives?
by
4Progress
on 30/01/2014, 02:40:59 UTC
I'm getting started mining various coins. Windows, running GUIMiner. Finally got it set up and GUIMiner is showing hash rates in the hundreds.

I'm trying two different pools. multipool.us and wemineltc.com

Problem is, multi pool is showing 10 kh/s, wemineltc.com is showing none, but I'm running a Radeon 7950 that should get approximately 500 mh/s.

I'm assuming this is a configuration problem. Can anyone shine some light on this?

Screen of the configuration:

Hi guys, I appreciate the help from both of you. I've already backed up the wallet.

When trying to salvage it, I've tried both commands both of you suggested, but it tells me command not found:

Code:
Bitcoin-Qt.app -salvagewallet
-bash: Bitcoin-Qt.app: command not found

I'm running OSX 10.9 if that matters.

So I'm in Terminal and trying to navigate to the directory.

Running cd /Users/username/Library brings me to library.

Running cd /Users/username/Library/Application Support says no such file or directory (even though there is). Maybe because of spaces?

http://blog.teamtreehouse.com/introduction-to-the-mac-os-x-command-line

the directory I gave above is the subdirectory below your home directory where bitcoin stores its data on Mac OSX, including the wallet.dat.

Thanks for the response. I understand the basics of the command line and I've already copied the wallet.dat file. The issue is that the command for Mac is different than that for Windows, so the command you mentioned in an earlier post doesn't seem to work. I'll keep doing some reading and try to figure it out.

The salvage wallet operation makes a new recovered wallet, but before it makes changes, you should do your own backup first - just in case it goes wrong. Make a copy of the wallet.dat file in the data directory first. ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/

I'm guessing this is the command for Windows. Do you know what it would be for Mac OSX? That information doesn't seem to be readily available.

You should make a backup copy of your wallet.dat file, and then try restarting with the command-line option -salvagewallet. Alternately, you can restore a wallet.dat backup - you do have a backup, right?

I've already made a copy of wallet.dat, but have done so after I've started getting the error.

Unforuntately I don't have an earlier backup. There's less than .1 BTC in the wallet, so if that's all it costs to learn how to properly store and protect my bitcoin, I'll view this as still coming out ahead.

Should I go ahead with the command-line option despite no earlier backup, or is it a moot point since there's no earlier backup? Sorry, I'm still a newbie. Cry

I've been running Bitcoin-QT for months without a problem. However, as of yesterday I get an error when I try to start up the program. A few days prior I got the error (or a similar one) as well, however, the wallet still opened. Now it crashes. I'm on a Mac. Additionally, I was running low on disk space when I first started getting the errors but just kept deleting things. Also, I *might* have been unable to open it only once force quitting, but I'm not sure.

This is the error I get:

"Warning: error reading wallet.dat! All keys read correctly, but transaction data or address book entries might be missing or incorrect."

I get this whist it says "Loading Wallet"

It then crashes if I click okay, and I get an option to report, saying it quit unexpectedly.

I've tried re-downloading Bitcoin-qt with no luck. I'm a newbie with the software side of bitcoin. Please help me out here - I've done some googling but I'm not sure what else to try. Can my balance be recovered?

Thanks in advanced.
