Re: What you will do with 1 BTC? Share your thought and win it
I see a lot of folks taking this lightly, and that's all well and fine but there's really only one answer to question:
Do what's practical.
For some that may mean keeping the coin as a long-term investment, hoping that the community as a whole will spearhead their financial success. For others, it may be getting into the trenches and developing BTC related merchandise, games, auctionhouses, miners, etc. Still for others the wonderment of bitcoin is enough, and they'll squander away their earnings on negative expected-value games for hopes of riches.
In all of the above though there's one salient feature, one shining light - It has value. This digital list of cryptographic fancy-ness actually has value.
That's wonderful to me, it not only points out that money is an abstraction but it's an abstraction that can be improved.
Going back to your question, the practical thing for me is to learn as much as I can about these abstractions, so that I may one day help improve upon them.
If you're looking for something a little less nebulous, I'm a math and comp-sci double major, so it'd probably go toward books

Looking for a loan of .5 btc, would like to play the bigbtc game on seals but cannot get coins until next friday. Repay: Friday 23 August 2013.
As for trust, I've emailed you before about issues with the site / offered to write python code.

Unfortunately going to have to deny this, you haven't really made any trades on bt talk and are very new. If you end up losing that match there is a decent chance I won't see my coins return.
Fair enough, though my offer for writing the code still stands. Thanks for the consideration!

Re: [ANN][CLR] Copperlark Pool - clr.vircurpool.com - Improved GPU miner 5x the hash
Already tried that, even re-downloaded the reaper build. Can I ask where the pool server is located? I might just be out of range with the increased number of workers. Is there longpolling? It's enabled in the conf file by default, but when I start the miner it reports:
Code:
Longpoll url -->/LP<--
fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff00000000
Activating long polling.
Long polling disabled.
fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff00000000
Activating long polling.
Long polling disabled.
Re: [ANN][CLR] Copperlark Pool - clr.vircurpool.com - Improved GPU miner 5x the hash
Hey, I'm getting a message that Longpolling isn't available? As a result I was able to mine about 40 coins last night, but now all of my shares (90%) are stale. Any suggestions?
Which miner are you using?
Using the miner provided under 'Getting Started'. Last night my stales were around 1%, now 100% for the past few hours.
