    JPMorgan patents Bitcoin-like payment system - Dec. 10, 2013 This could spell doom for bitcoin!!!!! I wonder how much of jpmorgan's system is based on taking code from bitcoin and other crypto-currencies? Since jpmorgan is trying to patent their payment system, I wonder if they'll go after...

    I've never had a problem moving money out of campbx. I use an ACH to my bank account. It costs $2.00 though. Used to use dwolla but they stopped transferring from bitcoin exchanges

    I'm liking the war between angels. I would have liked to have seen more Cas as a human but I think its good that he has his mojo back. I wonder if they will look for the next prophet.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    A type of bitcoin credit card with a merchant terminal would solve the small transactions. Something like that with the issuer handling all the conversions to currencies would speed adoption. What merchant wouldn't want to get out from under current credit card transaction fees without really...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I certainly think bitcoin will stick around and more and more retailers will begin to accept them, if for nothing else the low to no transaction fees. I think as soon as someone make can come out with an easy to use merchant terminal and payment system we'll see widespread adoption of bitcoin as...

    If that is the case, then it will drop a lot. Usage in China was what was pushing the price

    Well that should burst this bubble. From what I gather, the current price was because of strong demand in China for bitcoin.

    I'm going to see how the prices go over the next month before deciding to do anything. Might just be easier buying and holding for a while

    true they do have a track record of shipping and I do think they are all caught up on their pre-orders for their produce line. I'm really not sure I want to buy hardware or not.

    I bought 3 jalapeno's from BFL. Given their track record of over promising and under delivering, I'm really leery of buying anything from them again. I felt lucky to get my jalapeno's when I did.

    I'm considering buying 3 of these but they won't be out until Feb 2014. Not sure what the difficulty and price will be by then. Might be better just to still on the 22ghz I have and mine away, sell high and buy low. Bitcoin Miners :: Prospero X-1 (100Ghash/second)

    Be careful if you've logged into bitcointalk.org the past 2 days, guess they had a man in the middle attack and a lot of passwords were stolen. If you use the same log in and password on multiple sites, you could be compromised.

    Several companies in china started accepting bit coins, that's supposedly what is driving the current run up in price.

    I always liked supernatural's format. They'll do 3 or 4 main story line episodes and then do a few bottle episodes.

    I was using campbx>dwolla but dwolla stopped working. campbx has an option to ach straight to my bank. Figure next time I sold I would use that option to get the cash.

    I just hope I can sell a few coins before the bubble pops! The ASIC boom was nice while it lasted. Went from making .5 coins a day at the beginning to August to .02 a day. Only reason I'm still mining is my electricity is free at work.

    We had 3 showers, one on my side of the family, one on her side of the family and one from her work. We're in the process of building a new house, so pretty much everything we registered for was with the new house in mind. We got a surprising amount of gifts off the registry, more than I thought...

    The DJ we used was around $600, and I thought he was great, kept the reception moving, got people on the dance floor. Pretty much kept us informed the entire night, ran by us the odd ball requests that people made before playing them. Well worth the money. We paid $5500 for the wedding...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    We invited 445 people, we both have large families and parents that wanted to invite a lot of their friends. Only 250 came. I think out of that maybe 6 or so didn't show. Thankfully our parents paid for most of it, though we helped where we could.

    I'm not sure ASIC's are even worth it now. Seems like we are in a never ending cycle of speed increases and difficulty increases. Only the guys making the ASIC's are actually making money.

    That's the only reason I still have my gpu's mining, running them at work. I don't understand people that are buying those usb miners either. Unless you are buying in bulk, you can never make an ROI.
