I really like their UI. I hope they are able to find another bank and have the will to continue running an exchange.

there's good reason. getting money on there is a pain. probably easier if you're just mining LTC or something else that's traded on there.

Re: Expected Value for Bitcoin in the Long Term

Not sure how exact something like this would need to be. You could get lost trying to account for factors that may not really have a significant impact.

I'm of the belief that some rough measure of value expectation could be hashed out akin to Black-Scholes in the option space. It doesn't account for every market factor but provides a "good-enough" approximation of value at a point in time. Keeping in mind that there are more complex models that build on BS in order to account for different factors.

I'd hope we could project a very rough growth curve given the set inflation rate and available information (difficulty, network peers, transaction volume etc). We don't have an active forward market so getting a real liquid future value is out, but we should at least be able to project with some reasonable confidence levels against the major currencies.

Thoughts?

Noted. The bitcoin-otc folks also have some good protocols in place to attempt at protecting you from fraud. The wiki has a decent list of the risks associated with different payment types. The main thing I've learned is to stay very far away from all of the payment schemes that can easily be chargebacked unless I actually know the person. Paranoia seems to be rampant and justified given the nature of bitcoin transactions.

why not. this thread started in 2011. I'm doubting the whitelisting is still happening, but just in case...
Either way it goes towards my post count so yay.

Re: What bit coin pool should I join?

I'm new as well. I've been using bitminter after running into some connectivity issues to slush.
Slush's pool seemed like a better return than bitminter.
