Hacker Hijacks Satoshi Nakamoto’s Email, Threatens to Reveal All

The bitcoin world is abuzz with speculation that some of Satoshi Nakamoto’s online accounts have been compromised, concerned a hacker could potentially access information concerning the bitcoin creator’s true identity or use the accounts to defraud key members of the bitcoin community.



Wired reported that the alleged hacker had posted on Pastebin that they would reveal key details of Nakamoto’s identity if 25 BTC were sent to a specified bitcoin address. While small donations have been coming in, the address still appears well short of that mark.

Administrator ‘theymos’ of the Bitcoin Talk forum (aka Michael Marquardt) a key figure in bitcoin’s online community, posted just after 9pm (BST) on 8th September, alerting the community of the development, writing...  continued

General Discussion / Re: Stock market crash
« on: September 09, 2014, 02:54:17 am »
Hey everyone. I'm new to Bitshares and was wondering what, if anything, would happen to BitsharesX if the stock market crashed?

if stock market crashed, then a lot of people sold and are holding CASH.  let's hope those people are willing to take their action in cryptos.  :)

there's a lot of room for growth (and profit) in this space.

get offtopic there sorry. lol.  imagine a crypto nerd like me talking to clueless people almost evangalizing the cryptozzz.
I can feel you.

However, I do not really like clearing house and viacoin as they built ontop of counterparty which builts on top of bitcoin which is backed by mining and we all know where this is going ..
If they were to use a pos scheme thinks would look alot different .. I like the concept .. but not the technical implemention

i won't get into a debate about POW vs POS.  i honestly think both are great and the whole of crypto is awesome.  another crypto is not the enemy..  it's fiat.  so no arguments which crypto implementation is better.  i am just amazed that really smart people are creating value on the internet and could possibly take the control of 'money' away from governments and big corporations.

hehe. just saying litecoin was created to be anti-asic.  but since there are scrypt asics, then litecoin is kinda losing one of it's original objectives.

just added freshcoin as an option if they really were serious about being 'anti asic'. 

it's a better alternative than most POW coins at least.

too early imo. i'd like to see more exchanges to have bitUSD available for trading and get the volume up.  this would only mean more and more people are holding, buying-selling it. and the more volume and the more people that buy and sell it, it will have tighter spreads making the volatility also go down. 

by then, it would make sense for merchants to accept bitUSD.

Is it really too early if the peg officially works? If the peg works then the whole industry needs it ASAP.

For example if I want to pay people in cryptocurrency now I can do it with BitUSD but no company is set up to help me so I keep cashing out into fiat.

Another example is if I want to get paid in cryptocurrency, there is no company to allow me to get paid in any asset I choose. This would be wonderful if we could all work and get paid in any BitAsset.

Finally businesses that might want to hold onto some cryptocurrency currently cannot. They are forced to cash out. Overstock, NewEgg, Dell, and others all seem to be interested in holding. Suppose we have BitUSD which actually gains in value?

Demand is coming from everywhere and it's really only a matter of whether or not the technology works. If it works then we should approach the moment we can prove it works.

You're right about the client but think of the fact that it's open source. If we get corporations on board like BitPay, Overstock, Dell, they could fund development of the client because it might actually be in their economic self interest to do it. The same way IBM and other companies funded Linux development.

i'm all for the tech, don't get me wrong.  but before we get to where we all want to be at, there are steps that bitshares has to get through.  and the most important imo is to get bitASSETS accepted in more exchanges, payment processors.

one short cut to that is what fuznuts is doing.  getting a stellar/ripple gateway set up.  if you have that, you automatically could send yourself anyone bitUSD -> to whatever currency available in stellar/ripple.  that's another tech that's really really underrated. watchout for those two. 

the only problem with stellar/ripple is the distribution of their respective currencies.  they should copy what clearinghouse and viacoin are doing. 

get offtopic there sorry. lol.  imagine a crypto nerd like me talking to clueless people almost evangalizing the cryptozzz.

and it would help to have a less buggy client.  plus syncing is so slow for me.  and i lost one of my registered names.  things aren't looking good at the technical side right now. 

it would be nice to have them fixed so people who are willing to try it wouldn't be turned off from the project..  or crypto for that matter. 

we need to get more people to use the tech.  but as things are with the client.  it wouldn't be bad to hold your horses.

Litecoin is cool and all and I respect what they tried to do, but there are not going to be that many currencies which hold value and Litecoin has little going for it that BTC doesn't have.  Faster confirm times that are still fairly slow.  Screwed up economics model means no real improvements.

yeah. and what they tried/teying to do isn't working anymore because of scrypt asics coming out.  and it's gonna get better and better. 

you want a new project trying to do what litecoin is doing?  take a look at freshcoin:  http://www.freshcoin.net
