Re: 0.25 BTC Bounty - Show me a Mt Gox USD Withdrawal :)
i just made another successful domestic withdrawl to my Japanese bank account. Took only a day or 2 as usual.
(i know this doesn't count, but just thought i'd let you guys know)

argh, right.
yeah the text was an overview of the video contents.
The first bit about the Vietnamese girl was just to set the scene (she wants to do a cosmetics business, but can't get a visa)
The blueseed is a planned project to build the ship in international waters and have silicon valley entrepreneurs based out to sea where they don't need a visa. Still looks like it's in the planning stages, but they're having meetings and there is a lot of interest in the idea.
Canada is actively seeking to entice entrepreneurs into the country with offers of permanent residency.
aaaand of course, they said that bitcoin is gonna be $1k per coin next week, so buy now! (no, actually, there was absolutely no mention of bitcoin or any virtual currency at all)

probably not 100% perfect, but i gave it my best shot.

From California's Silicon Valley, the world leader in IT industry.
Amongst the skilled personnel that gather from around the world, those who enter America without a visa receive no support from the country. The Obama Administration is seeking to reform immigration law, to allow skilled migrants to stay in the US, but the ideological divide between the Democrats and the Republicans has made the passing of the bill a difficult task. In the midst of this, however, on a ship which doesn't need to clear immigration screening, a unique and bold enterprise has emerged. The ship is anchored 12 nautical miles outside the US territorial waters, allowing those onboard to avoid the issues related to getting a visa. For an average monthly rent of 150,000 yen (~$1500USD), 1000 enterprising personnel have been accepted into the program. It has been observed by people interested in creating new businesses, and funds are steadily being collected for development.
Meanwhile, as the Canadian government starts a new initiative supporting permanent residency for entrepreneurs, they are taking a steady stream of the talent that once went to the US.

Something i've been thinking about for a while, is that I live in Japan (i'm an aussie expat), and i have an account with mt gox which i can send and receive from using local transfers.
especially with the recent issues with dwolla, and now the even bigger issue of gox not releasing US funds at all, maybe I could do a little side business helping people who really need to get their USD in or out of gox quickly???
i'm fairly new to this forum and crypto in general, so i certainly wouldn't want to ask anyone to trust me with significant amounts of their BTC or USD, but if i could start off small, and build some trust, is this something that would benefit people, and which i could make some pocket money out of (i'd ask for some commission for my effort, maybe 5%?)
i have a PP acnt which i could use for these transactions. (Obviously it's against their rules, so it would have to be hush hush).
right now, i'm not offering to start this, but is it possible? are there others doing the same thing?

yacoin for the reasons listed on their site:
* Currently the only CPUMined coin (with all other altcoins, CPUMining has become unprofitable as GPUs, FPGAs and/or ASICs can do it much more efficiently.
* Means that anyone can get involved with mining YAcoins. You dont need a fancy AMD video card, and a complex miner program with a lot of technical know-how
* This may also mean that the YaCoin coin distribution is and/or will be more widespread, and thus more democratic (this is speculation at this point)
* Also means that YaCoin could see a larger, more sustainable network hashrate, as miners can co-mine it along with GPU-based coins
* PoS and PoW (long-term power efficiency)
* Ultra-fast confirmations
i'm not entirely sure how well the 'cpu only' mining will work, and if people will find a loophole to get their GPU/asic's onto it or whatever,,,but if it holds up, it should be pretty cool.
i would ASSUME that once it gets out there more, a 51% attack would be almost impossible as well.
also it really does seem such a waste that people are running such energy intensive hardware to mine the other coins, especially when human energy production and the side-effects of it are destabilizing the world. That was always my big concern about bitcoin, and yacoin comes the closest so far to allieving that.
interesting too, that the original developer left the project. not sure what the deal was about that, but it's good to see that the coin had enough potential to find its way anyway.

I may also suggest you sell something for Bitcoin.
you may indeed suggest that! it's the only way it will succeed
once getting money from banks into bitcoin and back from bitcoin to banks becomes easy, the difference in exchange rates will disappear.
we've only just reached the stage where thinking about banks is even necessary. keep watching....

hopefully soon there will be places everywhere to get bitcoins. it's just going to take time to get the infastructure together. for the moment, just use mtgox, they're the safest. (until the Japanese government gets manhandled by the banking sector and forces it to close down... and don't think this is just a vague possibility - you can't even send paypal personal payments in Japan, because personal payments have been outlawed by japanese banks pressure on the reigning 'jimintou' right wing government.)
