Salutations

If one were to buy some bitcoins, where would one buy them from?
I've had a look at intersango but if anybody has any better idea's I'm all ears.

Thanks

ATTENTION

BENSON IV WANTS TO BUY DRUGS


If it didn't even require a little bit of googling then every idiot would be using coins and attracting more attention.

Just after a bit of advice is all, read some rather dodgy things with some of the exchanges, just trying to get an idea of whats a good bet and what isn't. Much like everyone on this forum does with any available product.

BTW in the end I didn't use them too many security issues and finding a suitable exchange that we could do business with made it a non starter

fuck it, since I am doing this for other people, may as well ask if anyone here wants any bitcoins? I am buying some late next week and as it costs a bit for each transaction, splitting it up works out a lot cheaper.

PM me if you want any.

Sorry to steal your thread...
I've just been reading around about Bitcoins and it seems the consensus is; mining by yourself is slow, painful and could take an age to come up with anything.

Is it actually 'worth' it? It's something I'm rather interested in but my main computer is rather outdated (8800GT outdated!)...

I read a bit into bitcoin mining purely out of interest, the general consensus being if you aren't prepared to build a mining factory (I've seen pictures of rows of 7-8 shelves connected in series), and steal the electric, then it doesn't even approach being profitable. Given that its not really a currency either, and price fluctuates a lot..... even with a artificial currency, it seems you can;t print your own money easily

There was entire bitcoin companies who shut themsevles down and vanished ith huge values of it, which in turn fluctuates the market

The problem is it's a currency based on no real value, real money was all based on silver and gold, but bitcoins are controlled by well, the companies that sell them and hackers that exploit them

[Jamie.]

Someone please explain what bitcoin is.. I've googled it and still don't have a clue.

Bitcoins are a virtual currency, anonymous, no central bank location, works off a p2p system.

Fairly easy to make untraceable.

Originally had no value but the fact that you can make almost instant payments to anyone in the world securely and anonymously means people want to use them. Supply and demand comes into play, there is a limited number of bitcoins in circulation and the number is rising exponentially slower. Controlled inflation basically.

The value fluctuates so much because there are so few bitcoins and the market is small compared to Govt. regulated currencies.

Current value 1BTC = £8
3 months ago it was £4.50
Not long before that it was £20 before it crashed.

Although the fluctuations don't make a difference to most people. Only way it makes a difference is if you hold onto the coins for long enough.

The difficulty of mining bitcoins is also going to get much MUCH harder when the new ASICS harware is released, this is hardware that is dedicated to bitcoin mining.
Whoever get the ASICS machines first is going gain massively from it as the first 2000 bitcoins or so will be very easy to mine, the bitcoin system will adjust the difficulty rating and it will go up substantially
