What's the best way to buy bitcoins fast? The dwolla->mtgox method is taking a very long time.
Virwox used to take me like 2-5 minutes, but that went poof.
I use the Dwolla -> Mt Gox method, and yeah, it takes forever, usually 3-4 days. Make sure you have all your accounts verified before you try doing things too. Verification can take about 24 hours or so. You'll typically need a scan of your drivers license and a proof of an address (like an electric bill scan.)
Once you have your Bitcoins transactions take 5-30 minutes usually. Make sure if you're using a wallet all the block chains are downloaded too.

Your account verification request has been received, and will be reviewed within the next 10 business days. Please contact aml@mtgox.com if you have any questions or comments.
Yikes that sucks. We'll I've had an account with them for years, and I've spoken to MagicalTux various times over IRC, so it must be a lot different now.
That's why I hate Mt Gox's monopoly on the market.
I'm also pissed off with BTC-e. They have a monopoly on Litecoin trading, so they charge you a 0.5 LTC transaction fee just to take your Litecoins out of their exchange. This crap happens since of lack of competition.
So you are not really anonymous in your bitcoin transactions then?Quote:

With eBay you can have a bitcoin transferred within minutes, just be prepared to pay a large premium for this convenience.Quote:

That is good advice, and you are absolutely right. There is need, there is greed, but there is also good timing.Quote:

Basically, right now there is so much vested in it that it can't be stopped by anyone, except possibly as a state-sponsored 51% attack. possibly.
I was concerned that the fundamental design could have flaws in it, and would need to be replaced by a v2 or something. But it appears to me that the things which can't be changed are very, very basic and new client versions can be released which add features and the miners will mostly all upgrade because they are a tight community.
So flaws in the system can pretty much be fixed. Only huge architectural issues, such as the concept of mining if it were a problem, can't be changed.
For example, the original bitcoin client used a version 1 data structure to store the block chain transaction history with a slow berkley database. Well, I believe that data structure has been updated to a super fast one. The clients and fee structures can be tweaked to adjust confirmation times of purchases.
Any developer, user, or miner who calls for everybody changing to a new crypto currency, away from bitcoin, is ostracized because it is against the interest of those who hold bitcoins. Essentially, it's like a corporation with a $1.6 billion market cap which seeks only to increase that market cap. It will do whatever software upgrades are needed, it will create whatever exchanges are needed, and it will continue to move forward and evolve regardless of any individual's opinion.
I see no reason it will slow down. I predict it will continue to evolve over the very long term, even at the protocol level. The only thing that will remain unchanged is the record books of who holds what. Everything else will be changed or discarded if it begins to hurt the value. Unlike almost all other open source projects, this is the first one driven so hard by time and money.
That's what I got from the research I've done on it.
New high of 165.80
edit: closing in on 170 in a matter of seconds

LOL. Say what you will about bitcoins, but the entertainment value has been exceedingly high to me thus far.
My silver and gold have been and are good "investments", but my bitcoins are runnin' fuckin' circles around them.
Sure, it could all disappear tomorrow, but so could everything else. The $169 price for one bitcoin is still cheap for the entertainment value. If you *do* buy one, one day perhaps not long from now you may marvel that you have a whole one.
In the words of the late Hunter S. Thompson: Buy the ticket, take the ride!
If you don't hold bitcoin, then you are not diversified.
$172.50Quote:

"A new piece of malware is rocking the Internet society now as it has been found that it is spreading through Skype which basically uses the infected computers to mine for Bitcoins and then make the owner of the malware money. It was discovered by by security firm Kaspersky, the malware is named “Trojan.Win32.Jorik.IRCbot.xkt,” and is spreading at an alarming rate. The malware is thought to have started in Europe, with the worst hit places including Italy, Russia, Poland, Costa Rica, Spain, Germany, and Ukraine.

To be honest, the continued rise in bitcoin prices has me very uneasy about the whole thing. It claims to be a digital currency but as long as the price continues to rise it can't function as one. For a currency to be viable there has to be a market. With the price exploding though you would be a fool to spend your bitcoins on anything right now.
I don't like the structure of the bitcoin where the total in circulation in capped. This design basically guarantees early adopters get rich and everyone who waited will scramble to get in the market. At some point the price could get so outrageous that nobody will want to use bitcoin except those already invested.
That said I don't feel bad playing this market. The bankers are suppressing PM's and messing with every other market right now. What is a guy to do that doesn't want to be economically enslaved?
Just be safe. Have multiple wallets. Don't put all your holdings on one exchange or in one place and take some profits here and there even if that might mean a smaller return. If this thing does blow up in every ones faces at some point it will be those who are "all in" that get burned.
Otherwise the risk to reward ratio on bitcoins is worth it.
Bitcoin is proving to be more of a digital commodity than a currency.Quote:

I *have* given a look to the technical fundamentals of Bitcoin, and there is more *substance* to the overall concept in theory, and as the past few years have shown so far, in practice, than the stuffing of all the Beanie Babies in the world.
EDIT: I hold some bitcoin, so I am not buying at these prices... but if I didn't have any, I would pay $200 just to have one for the hell of it, because the concept is intriguing when properly understood.
I personally believe there will be a crash, then all the critics will come out and pat themselves on the back and be like "Told you so!" Chris Duane will laugh at us and life will go on as people stop talking about it. When they are beating their chest, and most Bitcoiners are quiet, that's when you buy.Quote:

Chris Duane will be like "ZOMG it's CIA Illuminati 666 Lizard Agenda!!!"
This process will keep occuring till theres large enough of a market cap, and enough business using cryptocurrencies until Chris Duane claims he was pro-Bitcoin/Litecoin all along and starts calling people 'tards for not buying in like he did.
By the way, as a general note, it should be understood that success is not dependent upon price.
The security of the Bitcoin protocol and network is what would constitute success/failure.
I keep expecting some large holders to cash out, but I expected a drop like that at $100 and it didn't exactly happen.
Gonzo, yur gonzo.

Maybe, they're making a list of those that subscribe to circumventing legal tender laws (FEMA camp membership) or after crashing this (BTC), they'll come up with their own "new and improved" version. You will need power/equipment/internet to run (not very self sufficient to say the least)............ We are being set up.
