Does any one have a utility or web site to see current individual net hash per algo & possibly net hash combined? Thanks in advance. ( Coinwars shows 0 I dont think they can deal with the multi-algo )

Has anyone still not been able to withdraw their coins from Mintpal?

Wow, that is a big red sign! Guess that knocks them off the list. Crazy stuff happening!

That's crazy, seems like I got lucky. I bought 5.3 million on Cryptsy on Wednesday...  withdrew immediately and had them in my wallet within 10 minutes!

I'm trying to hoover up some cheap ones on CEX now.

I did send them a support ticket.
They replied with.

We did a audit on youre account and is says you bought 472 tickets with the points.
But how? They can't say anything about it.
How it's possible to buy tickets when i don't have points 

This is not over yet, will reply when there is any progress.

Recap: Bitcoin 2 Business Congress in Brussels
by Allen Scott @ 2014-10-23 05:22 PM

The very first Bitcoin 2 Business Congress kicked off on October 16 at a very nice looking location in Brussels: the B19 Business Club.

Registration started at 9:00 am and the Agenda was full the whole two days. Twitter and other social media were filled with news and current information from the presentations and speeches.

The atmosphere was casual from the beginning and people were very interested in meeting potential business partners and in the networking.

Day 1

The first day began with Stan Wolf and Benjamin Bommhardt who were discussing the Crossing of the Chasm of Cryptocurrencies. The day continued with one interesting session after another. Among the Bitcoiners well-known Niels Kerstholt from BitPay discussed the Merchant adoption of Bitcoin.

One of the most interesting sessions of the first day was also the Mining workshop. Some of the attendees never truly understood the Mining for which this session was very beneficial. Not only could they see the “old-school“ GPU miner, well known to people who started mining earlier, but they also learned about merged mining.

This was explained in depth because while mining you can also mine a Transactioncoin – TxC, which supports two hashing algorithms: SHA256 and SCRYPT.

“Txcoin can be merged mined with either sha256 or scrypt based altcoins, such as Bitcoin or Dogecoin” explained Matej Michalko from BitcoinMarketing and DexQ during the workshop.

Vitalik Buterin from Ethereum had a speech on Thursday as well as Sergij Foski representing the Bitcoin Foundation along with John Michell who presented a closer description of Decentralization and DAOZ.

Day 2

The second day of the Congress taking place on Friday focused on a broad range of topics. It was opened by a great presentation of BitcoinMarketing’s Boris Stankovic.

One of the most tweeted was the presentation by Richard Caetano who advised Bitcoin businesses to “Target Early Adopters but Prepare for Mainstream.“

Another noteworthy presentation was given by Cointellect.

Next, Jeremy Gardner invited more Universities to join the College Cryptocurrency Network.

A great panel discussion was held on the subject of Altcoins with Adam Vaziri, Matej Michalko, Stanislav Wolf, Marc Warne, Matej Boda and Vitalik Buterin.

Right after the lunch break, Max Wang from btctrade.com delivered an interesting speech titled “Cross-border B2B Payments and Digital Assets Investment Based on the Large Trading Volume in China.”

The latter part of the afternoon was dedicated to a start-up show that included10 start-up projects. Every startup got the chance to present their project. The list of participating companies included:

    Bokk
    Online Bank Transfer
    Cryptodomainer
    BitNPlay
    Coinoutlet
    GEMS
    JungleCoin
    MasterXchange
    DexQ
    Internet of Coins

More information about the participating Start-ups can be found here.

Some controversy was stirred up by the last presentation from Nicolas Courtois of UCL. “Flipping the coin 100x would be better randomness than current random generator in some wallets,” said Courtois, in addition to other brow raising comments such as Bitcoin “has failed in being a decentralized P2P.” His speech led to many discussions at the subsequent social event in the city that included many Start-ups representatives, investors and attendees.

The event was a great success that galvanized the formation of new business partnerships and connections between Bitcoiners in Europe as well as the other parts of the world.

Also, special thanks should also go out to the guys from Belgian Bitcoin Association who helped with the organization.

So, let me go over the logic at work in people's opinion of Cryptsy:

Yesterday: Everything is working, Cryptsy is wonderful! Best exchange. Go Cryptsy!

Today: Oh my God, there was a problem, Cryptsy is f**ed up! I'm out. Their terrible, it's a scam, thieves...

This is why the crypto world is always on the wrong side of the news. When Digibyte had a problem, did you all do this to Digibyte? No, of course not, we all rallied to help in any way possible so, I ask you all this:

What proof is there that the guy who filed the suite actually lost anything? If he did, what proof is there that is was Cryptsy's fault?

Lawyer's like the Silver Law Group are little more than thieves themselves. They will file suite on the weakest of claims in the hope the target offers to settle, guilty or not, to keep themselves out of the news. Its all about bad Press in the end. Just because someone claims a loss does not mean there actually was one or that is wasn't the claiment's own fault in the first place.

And, yes, problems do happen and mistakes are made, big banks and financial institutions do it all the time yet we keep our accounts open mostly because we have little choice and half the time nobody knows about the losses.

We must ALL keep in mind that this is new technology, new territory to explore and nothing, absolutely nothing is really safe in this brave new world. Millions are lost EVERY day to credit card fraud, have you all ditched your credit cards? Did you write to VISA and MasterCard and tell them you were done with them?

How about we withhold judgement until we know if there is anything to judge or not? That way, you may become part of the solution rather than part of the problem...
