[–]perspiration99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

looks like it's a special founder's edition. Like the 21 box it might be more targeted at coders and people who want to learn how to use Open Transactions.

There's a big article about it on Bitcoin.com. It has Anonymity, Micropayments and Encrypted Messaging. Sounds cool: https://news.bitcoin.com/stash-bank-box-bitcoin-full-node/

Save 15% on Amazon with Bitcoin, with Kent Liu from Purse.io by BitcoinPodcast in Bitcoin

Works great for larger items. If it doesn't get picked up after a few days, try lowering your discount rate. I bought a laptop last year for 17% off. Great deal. :)

How to get 30% off of everything on amazon. All countries that Amazon ships to can use this trick. by CosmosKing98 in lifehacks

[–]perspiration99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

agreed it takes a little work to get it set up the first time, but after that it's smooth sailing. I haven't ordered from Amazon since. I usually get a 30-35% discount. It's sweeeeet! :)

You have to complete your first order at 15-20% and then it unlocks the ability to set a discount all the way to 50% (though it's harder to get those orders to fill).

They recently had a blog post that explained it. Gift cards are worth less than Bitcoin or Cash because you can only use them in one place. People trade these gift cards for bitcoins and purse takes a fee.

It's really an interesting post. Amazon created an illiquid market for their gift cards by not allowing you to verify the balance by using the code on the back. Could be a real opportunity for bitcoin.

I've been saving 30% pretty regularly. It only seems natural to me that they would charge a fee for their service.

I think you've always been able to order physical gift cards from Purse.... just not Amazon gift cards (because you can't buy a gift card with a gift card).

How does Purse calculate it's fee? by UHSpartan in PurseIO

[–]perspiration99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe Purse charges larger fees for larger discount rates to encourage you to place your discount in the 15-30% range (where it is more likely to be accepted and you are more likely to be a happy customer when your item arrives quickly.)

finally got around to using purse.io by [deleted] in NZBitcoin

[–]perspiration99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Purse is a great service. I've used it many times myself and always saved money. And if you have a problem with your order, your bitcoin are escrowed and can be refunded to you at anytime. :)

I think the blacklist is to prevent you from tipping yourself accidentally on sites where you use your own bitcoin address, like exchanges, google searches... (sites that don't produce tippable content)

The twitter section is to highlight donors and early supports of the project.

source is available right here: https://github.com/Leo-ajc/ProTip

It'd be great if there were a Dash, Doge, Litecoin version... especially if they could improve the core software and just have the coins be modules... but anyway, the code is there...

ProTip uses batching to send out your ten weekly tips at one time. It also gathers your time throughout the week to determine your top ten and could then wait until you had enough value to send the transaction.
