Cool, I can go to sleep and not worry that the trading is going to resume while my eyes are closed. :] Great talk on OnlyOneTV about forthcoming security improvements, excited to see them implemented!

Thanks Nhodges


We manually verify the big transfers. We held up a 2500btc transfer earlier and a few 500btc or so transfers.
Most likely legit but we prefer to take the time to send an email than risk someone logging in to find their Bitcoins missing.

We spent a lot of time tonight discussing different possibilities and will be implementing more features soon.

Your captcha is useless and annoying.  There are better ways to prevent oracle attacks.

If anyone is interested in breaking this style of captcha, the basic technique is: intensity histogram, contrast, despeckle, horizontal histogram, cut letters/find hulls, unrotate and rescale, build grid, lookup in database.  Building the database in advance is the hardest part, and it is really only hard if the site under protection isn't worth getting into.

Captchas were great 10 years ago, when not everyone knew how to break them.  By now, they have to be nearly unreadable to be effective.  Within a few years, I suspect that getting a correct answer for a difficult captcha will be taken as evidence against the humanness of the interpreter.

Well, that's one way to do it. Much easier is paying a kid in China $0.01 to do it for you.

10 am EST = 3 pm GMT (they might have DST in EST though for example which I'm not 100% aware of - this is why you should use UTC!)

Edit:
Oh yes, and the Captcha is a joke!
