Re: If you are leaving mt gox, how will you withdraw your funds? (cash or btc)

18 buyers v 2 (potential) sellers

I think there might be a rally. At least at the start.

Nope. the big guy with 25k+ BTC, which was hacked, will let you buy as much as you want.

what do you mean by that?

Just trying to get an idea of what will happen when the market opens. I am thinking that, somewhat counter-intuitively, bitcoin will make gains against $ since many people will want to withdraw in bitcoins and not cash, so a lot of buy orders will come in pushing the market up.

thoughts?

I would just like to say thanks to Mike and the google people for doing this. I didn't have the same password for google, so I was fine but I am glad you had the sense to take the necessary steps to mitigate the danger of a wider breach.

edit: oh and super pissed with mtgox right now. what kind of a dog and pony show are they running over there?

really? FFS

I ask a relevant question. someone jacks the thread with something he easily could have looked up and still no answer.

so, to repeat:

can I buy USD on tradehill from another tradehill user?

I guess it depends whether you can transfer $s from one account to another internally on tradehill - couldn't find anything about that on their site.

Any ideas?

Let me guess - you're a teenager with fairly well off parents who thinks he's figured it all out with the sheer brilliance of his own sparkling intellect.

Your sneering narrative voice is a dead giveaway.

I have no opinion on Atlas (actually I think he is a good guy Smiley ), though personally I hate the Objectivist philosophy (a great watch that articulates my feelings well is the recent Adam Curtis doc called 'All Watched Over By Machines Of Loving Grace'), but man have I met a lot of the type of libertarian you describe. They are the bane of the reddit economics and politics boards.

Re: Gavin will visit the CIA
by

on 14/06/2011, 19:23:58 UTC
hardly its point to joke on that kind of clandestine operations.
its SO usual, so almost 3/4 of middle east political/military leaders is replaced by agents in disguise/surgery. for example.
so Gavin can be victim of such attack. and not from only CIA. en-route.
So? We will know he's been replaced when the coding suddenly becomes very poor (or there are no new updates at all for weeks).

Or do you propose that they can not only replace Gavin with an agent but also transfer his "skillz" via some brain transfer interface?
why replicant/infiltrator/insurgent/mimic should/can/must/might produce "very poor" code ? agents usually can perform better than prototypes and trained for months, even years before insertion/replace.

THIS THREAD HAS OFFICIALLY JUMPED THE SHARK. PLEASE COMMENCE FACEPALM IMMEDIATELY

Seriously though, who the fuck are you? I didn't recognise your name and then went to check your stats:

Re: mtgox and other exchanges proposals

1. you are proposing a Plunge Protection Team for bitcoin? That conspiracy theorists will have a field day! Seriously: you are talking about a central authority, which is not going to gain much traction in the community as it is pretty much opposite to the philosophy of bitcoin.

2. I think you are right, or at least I think it would be 'better' if there was some kind of guarantee in the case of massive hack. I think it would be a really different type of company though, think about it: if there were a security breach then users would have to be identified before they could be paid their 'compensation', that means that the users would have to be officially identified by the MtGox company, using proper ID etc. There are many MtGox users that would not like that.

As you quite often hear around here, why not set up an exchange and try to provide the protection you describe above?

Re: MtGox feed and MtGox website display different BTC price (!)
by

I see that this happen time to time. I think it is simply delay on websocket interface. I have no idea how many connection that websocket interface has, but I believe it can be in thousands.

I don't know whether your explanation for the fault is accurate. At least it didn't seem to me that it was a delay. I saw a half hour of the price being up to $3 more than the feed and then within minutes being $3 less (of a different price) - this six dollar swing was happening while the price was spiking on the feed (as shown in the image above).

This is a pretty serious issue no matter what is causing it. And right now MtGox is down again. This really doesn't make one confident of trading there Sad

Has anyone noticed the BTC/USD price on the sierrachart feed going out of synch with the price on the website?

I saw this last night and posted on here, but don't seem to be getting any response.

Have a look at my thread for the full explanation.

MtGox feed and MtGox website display different BTC price (!)
by
nereer
on 14/06/2011, 10:07:52 UTC
I noticed this (and took the screenshots) last night, there was a period about 11.30 to at least 00:10 GMT last night, in which the price displayed by the MTGox feed was different from the price quoted on the website by up to +-$3/btc

I noticed the feed went down yesterday at about mid-afternoon so I wonder is this a technical fault. In any case it is really worrying.



Also, there were some huge price swings while this was happening. Are bots trading off the feed data? Could that explain this crazy swing:



Has anyone else noticed this? Can we get some comment from MtGox on this issue?

I would be interested in helping where I can.

Perhaps the first stage is to put a wiki up and start sketching out what features this would have (?)

I see this being most useful to me as a merchant tool that hooks into an accounting system to autogenerate accounts.
