Just payed for 3 Shares.

TXID: 52386059a265be9e9b1e06fb933c767034181f2b5b2ef9f48dab5a50256fe0cb

my first major investment in a BTC Mining Operation Smiley

3 Confs, I will get onto making a spreadsheet asap so everything can be tracked like my last group buy if you had a chance to check it out.

yes i checked the thread, thanks for the fast response!
Pretty bursty blocks Smiley 3 Blocks in 1 minute!

A Spreadsheet would be nice! Hope the ~Thash will be profitable next year. My 7 Ghash BFL shipped after 6 Month and overpayed for itself like 20x. So i am confident that one will work aswell Smiley (20nm is a big + in terms of overall performance and others won´t match this easily due to very high cost of masks / development process)

2. The security certificate which is up there is very basic, but works for now. Will get the paperwork sorted for a more robust certification in the coming weeks.

would be nice if you could activate a ciphersuite that uses Diffie–Hellman Key-Exchange instead of Keys derived from the RSA certificate.. So the NSA can´t listen in Smiley
https://community.qualys.com/blogs/securitylabs/2013/06/25/ssl-labs-deploying-forward-secrecy is a good thing to read here.

I hope more and more people will understand crypto systems in the future and use strong and secure encryption instead of lax one..


For example saving password-hashes as md5 in the db is not state of the art, one should at least add a very long salt, which is different for each user!

Have fixed the issues/requests/bugs requested during the quick alpha here: https://icedrillasic.appspot.com/ - go go open beta.

Thank you Smiley just registered and my shares show up correctly Smiley worked like a charm! Thanks! Google AppEngine is a good choice in my opinion. Hope you backup the database to a Off-Google location, so if google is forced to someday stop your operation or something like that, there is still the backup Smiley

So, mein Paket ist heute angekommen, die Logistikfirma hat nicht mal 24 Stunden gebraucht bis sie hier war (Versand 17:00 gestern Abend, um 10:00 heute standen sie vor der Tür).
Der Spruch "good things come in small packages" trifft nicht zu, denn das Paket kam in einer riesen zugeschweißten Versandsfolie Smiley.
Die beigelegte Rechnung ist in BTC ausgestellt.
Ich hatte ehrlichgesagt noch nie soviel Gold in der Hand, ich war vom Gewicht im Verhältnis zur Größe echt überrascht. Es ist ja auch schwerer wie Blei! (Blei: 11,342 g/cm³, Gold: 19,32 g/cm³ Quelle: Wikipedia).

BitAurum: Alles super gelaufen! Würde dort wieder kaufen!

i thinks its ok to have two services. That way there is another barrier if your account data leaks somehow from another service and you have used the same password.
I use 2-Factor on every site that offers it anyway.. So for me it would be better to have one site. But i understand, that its better for people who don´t use 2 Fac.

B.t.w. i just transffered some BTC to CoinLender. I hope this service stays up a long time! Whats the current rate we are getting on the amount in the account?

I checked out the silkroad forum some time ago (was never active on silkroad but just wanted to read in the forums). One guy was asking for 0.4 BTC (completly anonymous) 0.4 BTC was like 15$ back then. Because i had mined a lot of coins back then, i gave him the 0.4 to help him out, and did not think that i will get it back ever. After aprox. 1 Week i got 0.74 back! Somehow my faith in humanity was restored that day. I mean he could have easily just taken the BTC, he had 1 post in the forum and just registered. And it was via TOR!.
Maybe i shoudl just checkout that old transaction, get his BTC sending address, check if it is still used via blockchain and send him the diff 0.74-0.4 in a random act of kidness. I think he somehow deserves a medal!

Back to topic, i guess the chance is somehow 50:50 that you get your money back.

Guys you are forgetting butterfly labs will ship in two weeks.

They are getting over 10 Th/s out the door per day now. Like it or not, they are boosting the global hash significantly.

there is no proof at all that this is happening! If you look at the ordertracker no one is getting orders since weeks!

I just bought some shares. Looks pretty awesome to me.
The chips are developped by an experienced team! Please don´t mess up with PCBs / installation / management!

Did you add your own hashrate to the difficulty calculation aswell?

Re: YES, you can get a REFUND from BFL

I especially like the shipping updates! Everyday it moves further away from reality Smiley http://bfl.ptz.ro/ lists the last shipment for orderdate 09/09/2012 for weeks now (well there is one other order marked as received bellow but i don´t think it is true).

Guess the best bet for the whole BFL Team is to leave the country and operate the site for 1-2 more days from abroad. Guess some 1.000 people hunting them worldwide would be, well funny somehow Cheesy.

I know such cases, people can´t disappear that easily, here in germany one guy even organised a bus tour (~1100km) to the new home of such a guy and aprox. 15 people payed him a visit. I heard they basically took all his expensive stuff (car for example) and sold it, but no one really knows what happened that day.

Oh ok, ich hatte jetzt auch mal so mit 1 Woche etwa gerechnet Lieferzeit.

Ja das mit den Rechnungen ist richtig, allerdings kann man diese ja auch anonym ausstellen bei OTC.

Also es gibt schon Unterschiede. Anlagegold ist halt Umsatzsteuerbefreit und da gibt es auch ein paar Einschränkungen. Man möchte halt z.B. nicht, dass Goldschmuck auch Umsatzsteuerbefreit ist. Hier das Gesetz:
http://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/ustg_1980/__25c.html

Umsatzsteuer ist das was viele Mehrwertsteuer nennen.
Einkommensteuer muss man theoretisch bezahlen, wenn man das Gold innerhalb 12 Monaten nach Kaufdatum wieder gewinnbringend verkauft. Ich könnte mir vorstellen das hier nicht sehr hohe Steuereinnahmen für den Staat auftreten ^^, man kann das Gold ja anonym verkaufen!

Stell mir das eh schwer vor 19% in BTCs an das Finanzamt zu zahlen ("wie issen ihre BTC Adresse?, In welchem Formularfeld trag ich das denn ein?" => "äh bitte was?"), wäre allein schon die Frage zu klären, welcher Umrechnungskurs relevant ist, und ob BTCs eine Währung sind oder um es sich um ein Tauschgeschäft handelt u.s.w.

Also ich hab jetzt mal ein wenig Gold bei BitAurum geordert. Nach ein paar Stunden bekam ich eine Mail das die Zahlung eingegangen ist und die Bestellung steht jetzt auf "Processing".
Ich werde berichten sobald die Bestellung da ist. Nach dem 1. Eindruck ist der Shop seriös. Ich hatte auch erst überlegt das Gold abzuholen, aber die Strecke ist dann doch schon etwas weit und das ganze hat ja auch keine wirklichen Vorteile, da man ja ohnehin die BTCs vorher überweist. Ich denke OTC Geschäfte vor Ort sind nur bei verfügbaren Waren möglich, aber evtl. liege ich da auch falsch.

Anonymität:
Mich stört es auch etwas das meine Daten / meine Bestellung bei BitAurum gespeichert / aufgehoben wird. Wieso 10 Jahre fürs Finanzamt? Es fallen doch keine Steuern an? Auf Gold gibt es weder Vorsteuer noch Einkommensteuer, die Gewinne durch Verkauf müssen doch erst bei aberwitzig über dem Marktwert verkauften Goldpreisen versteuert werden.

Wie hier schon erwähnt kann man Transaktionen bis 15.000€ ja ohnehin vollanonym durchführen, man kann also z.B. von den BTCs das Gold kaufen, damit zum nächsten Goldhändler laufen und es anonym gegen Bargeld eintauschen (sofern man das möchte).

Sollte irgend eine Behörde mal vor der Tür stehen und fragen was mit dem Gold ist, hat man es im Zweifel eben eingetauscht und das Geld verjubelt.

Falls es dann deutlich über die 15k€ rausgeht, klappert man halt x unterschiedliche Händler ab und macht lauter 10k€ Geschäfte.
Auf der anderen Seite stellt sich für mich die Frage wieso ich überhaupt Gold in Fiatgeld umtauschen möchte wenn ich nicht auf dieses Geld angewiesen bin (wer braucht schon 15k€+ auf einen Schlag zum leben).

Auch heben die Händler halt eine Kopie eures Persos auf, das wars, soweit ich weiß wird da nix irgendwo zentral gemeldet o.Ä. zudem ist es ja nicht verboten Gold zu kaufen, Steuern muss man auch keine zahlen und man hat die Werte unter seiner eigenen Kontrolle!

Okay, I apologize. How did you know to use that address? I was confused because I have a different label for 1pTXE3DUJvhaKxuSxGivRF6yYn2TN5nar that I had made some deposits to.

My apologies, I DID receive the BTC.
hey no problem Smiley nice to hear that! And congratulations on the win (even if its a small one) Smiley

Can you please not accuse me of being a scammer? I called betcoins.net a scammer, but I was wrong, and I owned up to it. I made a mistake, it is true I don't understand how bitcoin works.

I use bitcoin-QT, which has LABELS. I had made a couple withdraws from a site, to address 1pTXE3DUJvhaKxuSxGivRF6yYn2TN5nar

Because the label was not Betcoins.net, I didn't recognize it. I made a mistake, I apologized, and I redacted my statements.


I removed that part from my post Smiley

Guys, please look at the blockchain!

https://blockchain.info/address/1pTXE3DUJvhaKxuSxGivRF6yYn2TN5nar
He was betting via transaction e31298286e4794a6f684798b74e2ec8bf4d44ac965387313fee12ece0f721531 on 2013-03-23 18:18:56
and received his win 1 minute and 3 seconds later via transaction 2ad6ffe41c23b48ee7f134ff14e3ffac832f78ad171159acad6c2d8f9d2a7d1a on 2013-03-23 18:19:59

The win was sent from the adresses 1CuCsiTE1FFtNhSE8GZ7wRQciA8FppYgFA and 1CGoyGLKePzdFPDkviFckR4MjNUkWuNiCc which are adresses betcoins.net seems to use to transfer money into the casino / which are adresses betcoins.net has money on to sent the wins from.. These adresses aren´t tagged in blockchain.info, so they don´t show up as "betcoin", if you click on them, you will see that these adresses are related to betcoin.net.
A transaction is NOT send from the adress you send your BTC´s too in 99% of the cases. This is just how the Bitcoin protocol/blockhain works and is completly normal.
Feel free to lookup the betcoins.net adresses in blockchain.info ( for example https://blockchain.info/address/1N6weNFroYC54w54KMV3Pwb1mY2MeR3iJA ) and you will see many transactions where wins / losses are payed.
