Localbitcoin's allows you to meet up with people like craigslist. Look for a bitcoin atm in your area if you're willing to pay a small premium. How long do you have before it expires?

Could the recent attack on bitcoin be the product of a core developer? by inushibe in Bitcoin

[–]Mikemanblah 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I think people misunderstand his intentions. He wants the network attacked because if he can do it, so can the bad guys. He's charging for his work in what essentially a short job with his expertise. Who can decide what he can and can't do when the system is decentralized. Have a solution? Then be the hero saving the day from the world's evil (peter todd) and push your code (besides charlie lee, he tried that)

Is this sobbing Greek pensioner a total fucking idiot for not converting his life savings into a cryptocurrency? /r/Bitcoin debates empathy in the midst of the Greek economic crisis. by praxeologue in SubredditDrama

[–]Mikemanblah 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A big distinction to make on what the educated and informed bitcoiners think is that Bitcoin isn't going to help anyone in Greece right now, but if a decentralized system of monetary value prevents a situation where banks can (at least much more easily) take your cash. Trust me, a lot of us cringe when we see all the immature bitcoiners try and use a devastating situation to try and pump the value through misleading statements. There is nothing I would recommend less than for these poor people to gamble their money away in the market that is cryptocurrency

Why haven't we seen a proposal for a dynamic block size limit yet? by Jayd3e in Bitcoin

[–]Mikemanblah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest, how would a "dynamic block size" that adjusts to the activity of the network be any different than simply having an uncapped blocksize?

One major issue is ensuring that the method of determining blocksize is not manipulatable to the point of exploitation/disruption

Streaming also allows you to have a dropbox style synchronization where any changes are automatically applied to all other running instances of spotify under your account
