This from the guy who has Bitcoins in the 6-digits worth USD in the 8-digits.
Your implying he has at least 200,000 Bitcoins? If so this guy is very very wealthy.

I am bullish on bitcoin, but this feels like market manipulation. I can just feel the hype. I am still investing because of the fundamentals but this is the first set of hype which has even made me pause.
I can't tell if this is good or bad :/

I agree. This is almost Bruce Wagner level hype.
I'm still waiting on that round the world Bitcoin boat cruise.
As a forum noob who doesn't know members all that well... What is going on in this thread!? I am bullish on bitcoin, but this feels like market manipulation. I can just feel the hype. I am still investing because of the fundamentals but this is the first set of hype which has even made me pause.

Now can we get that in MD5 ?
Sure,
Here is your md5

Rainbow tables anyone? I am always happy to encourage fellow information security (or insecurity) experts.
md5("lol") = "9cdfb439c7876e703e307864c9167a15"
edit: oh you already said
Vladimir, what about putting that into a piece of text, timestamping it and give us the hash?
fair request.
SHA256

Looking at Vladimir's avatar signature I bet hashed message contains not more than 50 characters. Not so many combinations, is there anyone with a mining rig?
He posted sha256 first.
missed that
LOL, how do you know that I do not want you to think that it is a pump and dump so that I can buy lower?
no worries. you will not be buying my BTC anytime soon

how about sha256? if we get a collision there we have bigger problems
interesting thread none the less. smells of pump and dump BUT i am sure things ARE happening

Based on the source, there is almost no way that this could actually be good for Bitcoin. And there's no way that this doesn't involve the Bitcoin Foundation. I would be happy to eat those words, but I'm just calling it as I see it.
This is pretty much what I'm envisioning:

MD5 is not collision resistant, doesn't matter a lot though.

I'm not sure if your being sarcastic or not, I was under the impression the cap was always 1MB and set by Satoshi himself.
Your impression is incorrect, possibly because the idea that the 1 MB cap has always been present has been deliberately fostered by some people with agendas upon which I can only speculate.Prior to September 2010 there was no protocol limit on block size, and Satoshi's email messages clearly indicated that he intended the network to scale to very large blocks in the future. MAX_BLOCK_SIZE was added as a temporary anti-spam rule and was always intended to be raised in the future when the network was capable of handing it and needed the extra capacity.
Those who say the limit was always present as a deliberate economic rule are dissembling.

Wow ! This is an informed and toughfull post.
Gratz & thanks
For what is worth. Based on some information that is not public and that I have no intention to disclose, things are happening behind closed doors. There are some serious projects are being underwritten and financed and negotiated right now. If these projects come to fruition, which is likely to happen within 2 years time frame, the accessibility of Bitcoin investments to general public will be ubiquitous.
Anyone parting with his coins at current silly prices is going to deeply regret it by year 2015.

That's a pretty fucking sleezy post. It adds absolutely nothing to the consciousness of the situation, there is no information, only blarney and it is a blatant attempt at manipulating the price for a quick gain. I'm embarrassed for you.
And I'm a bitcoin enthusiast!
You appear to be a manipulating opportunist.
That certainly seems to be his MO, from what I've seen over the years at least. He's one to ignore.
My guess: he is referring to plans to bring Bitcoin to the stock exchange - making it tradable with any online broker (e.g. stocktrade) and accessible to billions of investor's funds. I myself have a few ideas about how this could be pulled off.
And there's no mystery to how it could be pulled off. FOREX.

That's exactly what I was thinking....but it would take a great deal of time and a much much much larger market cap. If BTC shows growth & resilience over the next few years, this would be an obvious outcome. I assume it would fall under CFTC jurisdiction. This kind of talk is extremely premature, of course.
