[QUOTE=.FLAP.JACK.DAN.;40261189]I don't get why don't these sites allow credit cards.[/QUOTE]
I explained it in the last thread..
Bitcoin transactions are irreversible. Many many people have tried to accept paypal and credit cards in the past, but it doesn't work with bitcoin.
- People chargeback, and the seller is left with nothing.
- People use stolen cards, so the seller gets in trouble for accepting it.
- Paypal closes accounts because of lots of chargebacks and stolen card usage.
So, the reason no sites accept credit cards, is because other people ruined it for you.
You may be able to do a P2P transaction over on bitcointalk, or in #bitcoin-otc, but you are going to at least have to provide ID and such at first until you have rep.
Yeah the reason is also that once you get your money into the system (LR, BTC, etc) you can buy stolen cards as near as 2.5$. Pretty much half of the market consists of credit card fraud.
Okay I get the point. I'm gonna try out paypal for this.

after everyone JUST said that paypal doesnt work??/
wtf man.
Bitcoins were on the front page of The New York Times today.
I just started mining today!
Currently have [B]0.01158574 BTC $ 1.18[/B]
Saving them up, I run a couple of projects and the bit-coins I get through mining or donations go towards my server costs.

It's as if you guys totally forgot that you can buy bitcoins with credit/paypal from [url]http://bitexchange.net/beta/[/url]
Keep in mind though the fees are heavy (8%-16% for the credit fee and the site fee total) and you are limited to 100usd monthly. But its a great way to get btc quickly and if you don't have your mtgox account verified yet (which takes weeks)

Also currently their "price per BTC" is much higher than gox/btc-e/etc so its not really worth it. It was worth it though before the bubble popped.
Mt. Gox died.
God damn, that trollbox.

One can only hope, eh?

You got goxed
Seriously people need to stop using the piece of shit Mt.Gox. It's bad enough there's a centralized exchange in a decentralized economy, but they're highly incompetent as well. They caused the crash by having a poor infrastructure that shat its pants with the rise in bitcoin popularity and made the crash much worse than it could've been by freezing trade in the middle of it. They did the exact same thing in 2011 and still haven't learned their lesson.
Rise pls, so I can sell this 0.26 for $70 again
I miss the days when bitcoin was $5 for so many months back in 2012. Things were so simple back then. Now we have a $50+ difference between the high and low every day.

Too bad there is literally no other option worth using
Closest thing is BTC-e which only has a fraction of the trading volume, crappy security (people apparently are losing their accounts left and right), and is also apparently ran by russian mafia lol. I'd only trade there because its the only place trading litecoin but I don't keep my ltc in the accounts there at all. It's literally a shittier version of mtgox that is only stable and up most of the time because its trading volume is hardly anything compaired to mtgox's

Does volume really matter?
I'm trading on a Swedish BTC site with a volume of 5500 BTCs a month. Works just fine.
Last week mining LTC gave me 1 LTC per night, not it gave me 0.48

You need to do more research. Bitstamp and campbx are decent markets that you can use instead of mtgox.

babe cn i hab munny????
So has anyone considered the OODLES of money gox could be making as the central controller of an anonymous unregulated currency, just by manipulation? Nothing stopsthem from pumping and dumping or investing. Plus they're taking fees off the top I bet they're fucking loaded
Which is why it's more possible a different currency will take off in the future instead of bitcoins
So i've been reading a bit about bitcoins. Seems pretty interesting and easy. I just downloaded the bitminer, made an account and its going at .0015 coins/day. Anything i can do to increase that?
