SCAMMER BE CAREFUL

scammed me out of my 0.4 btc

I can confirm this, got a popup from my firewall for connects to netne.net

Just deleted everything yacoin.. I don't think the request went through but I will be moving to cold wallets

My firewall has alerted me to connects to netne.net when I ran yacoin.

Sounds like the mega.co.nz binary has a trojan wallet stealer.. time activated?

My firewall gave me an alert that yacoin-qt.exe is trying to connect to netne.net. Is this normal?

Hello from another newbie

Hi, I'm ertness

I personally really like Bitstamp for purchasing bitcoins. I started out using MtGox a few months ago but have since transferred over and primarily use Bitstamp. I have yet to exchange bitcoins for fiat currency though so I do not know which exchange would be best for that.

If I started it out just as like a blog regarding the various ways to invest and accumulate bitcoins is that something that people here would be interested in/find useful?

Interesting. I appreciate all of the feedback so far. I think that I may start out with a few free issues to show everyone the idea that I have kind of been putting together.

I didn't even think about the market manipulation aspect of it and agree that any bitcoin investment advice would have to be careful of this.

My primary motive behind this project was to find a way that I can use my skills and experiences to bring value to the bitcoin community and ultimately learn even more about the projects and opportunities that are out there for those who are willing to do the research and be careful.

Thanks again for all of the great feedback.

Hello-

I would first like to introduce myself and a project that I may be interested in pursuing. I am a business student in Boston, MA and have a full time job at an investment firm. I have developed a passion/hobby for bitcoins over the past several month and joined this forum recently. I have limited experience in the technology field but have quickly developed a passion and hobby for researching bitcoins and the impact that they may have on the world.

I was wondering if anyone (especially those new to bitcoins and those who do not have a vast understanding of investing) would be interested in a weekly newsletter regarding the business and investment opportunities that are available with bitcoins. I have done extensive research (20-40 hours per week) over the past few months on the several bitcoins websites, securities, exchanges and upcoming projects and am interested in sharing my findings and providing a value to the bitcoin community in a weekly newsletter. I plan on it containing both a quantitative and qualitative analysis of investment opportunities in the bitcoin communities. 

I was considering charging 0.005 bitcoins for each issue or 0.01 bitcoins for a monthly subscription.

I was wondering if anyone had any feedback regarding this project and would love to hear it.

I want to clarify that I would primarily be writing from a business perspective and looking at how one can use their bitcoins to have an impact on the larger bitcoin community use their holdings to produce income. I would not be going into detail on the more technical side of bitcoin.

I appreciate any feedback that you guys would be willing to provide.

Thanks
