Or we could all build dice-o-matics --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7n8LNxGbZbs
I can't stop watching that machine. I'm mesmerized.
Still much smaller than a googolplex,...so
not very impressive as far as "large numbers" go. hehe.

And also much much unfathomably smaller than Graham's Number.
Surely a bank wouldn't move that amount of money with any costs being incurred?
I'm just pointing out its amazing that we can move vasts amounts of money without any paperwork, to anybody in the world for no costs. If that doesn't convince skeptics then nothing will.

Bank to bank I'm sure they don't charge each other.
You and I aren't in the club though, thats why we pay
Working in the banking industry, that is not true. The banks take every single opportunity that they can to charge eachother.
Possible? More unlikely things have happened.
No, because 7 digits means that bitcoin has taken over as THE payment system used worldwide. Western Union, Paypal, Visa? All thrown away in the dustbin of history because of bitcoin.
That MIGHT happen in 25 years+, but not this year.
Or it could just mean hyper inflation of the USD which isn't impossible, just unlikely.
Gavin's tweet expresses regret that he spoke with the journalist, but does not confirm that he knows this Nakamoto to be bitcoin's Nakamoto.
He says that he didn't know they would dox the Nakamoto family--this Nakamoto family got doxxed regardless of whether the theory presented in the article is true or false.

Re: Has anyone here ever actually received an anonymous donation?
Yes, I've actually received two tips (back in 2011) to the address in my signature for a total of 0.01080085 BTC. Likely due to my posts in the BitcoinPool.com threads.

That would explain a lot. This is why she was saying Bitcoin needs to do things which are impossible. It was simply a way to advocate for Ripple the centralized alternative.
Did she stand in for Ripple CEO Chris Larsen?
From my experiences with Prosper's horrible management for many years, I have learned to not support any venture of Chris Larsen.

Perhaps there will soon be a Bitcoin Redemption Center, where for 1,000 Bitcoins you have the choice of a Styrofoam helicopter, a stuffed Pikachu doll, or a sharing-size box of Everlasting Gobstoppers.

Do you ever get that message from John St. Crucible, the missionary from Nigeria who uses far too many articles in his requests for $70,000 sent via Western Union to the Church where he works? Check your spam -- I guarantee you he thinks your investment will pay off in the millions within two weeks. This is the same league.

The truth is, we know nothing of what goes on at Bitcoin headquarters.

We also know that if you lose a life while playing Mortal Kombat, your $129 Bitcoin can probably buy you another.

As I posted in another thread, GPU mining is still very profitable with paid-off hardware.
-------------------------------
With an existing 5850 GPU and summer air conditioning, it is costing me ~$0.80/day to mine (total rig wattage). (~$5.60/week)
At the current difficulty, I earn ~0.09333BTC/week which is currently ~$12/week.
That makes for a profit margin of ~100+% and is significantly cheaper than purchasing BTC directly with that ~$5.60/week.
At the current difficulty, it would be profitable for me to mine even with the price all the way down at $61/BTC.

Re: Dear Bear, So is this a slow bounce up, then a slow drop back to $100 or less
People were making fun of the bears right until the end of the last huge bubble.
The truth is nobody knows, so don't get cocky because it might backfire.

Just look at the fundamentals and you will see which of the two will win, Fiat or Bitcoin.
Duh.
In the long turn BTC may be worth more, but it seems like there are more and more resistance.
We may very well be in the "return to normal phase"
-But then again, this is pure speculations, and seems like BTC is extra hard to predict ATM.
Or we already went through the "return to 'normal'", "fear", and "capitulation" phases and are now in the "return to the mean" phase.
