I'm in the market for some put options so I'm happy to find this site, means I don't have to talk to people. Grin

Only, I'm not clear on how deep the market is right now. When I see (for example) Amount: 14, does that mean there are only 14 contracts at the given asking price, or only 14 contracts for that strike at all? Obviously I hope it's the former, since I'm not that interested in insuring 0.14 bitcoins.

We just added vanilla options. Please contact us if you want to be a liquidity provider. There will be a good offer for you.

Yeah, it can happen if BTC exchanges are short for liquidity and BTC price can jump very rapidly.

That was... strange. The BTC/USD dropped before my eyes from $230 down to $50~ before recovering back up. Wiped the limit orders off of the screen. Was that just a glitch?

We were just attacked by a team called DD4BC using DDoS.

DD4BC Team <[email protected]>:
Hello,

Your site is extremely vulnerable to DDoS attacks.

I want to offer you info how to properly setup your protection, so that you can't be ddosed.

If you want info on fixing it, pay me 1 BTC to 13adm65yzzre7fLKSFZayQ8dYyxgXaVyMU

Xinxi Wang:
Thanks. Yes, I know this. It's currently a little vulnerable to DDoS attacks. But we just cannot afford the money to fix it at this moment. I will definitely contact you when we are ready.

Then they just sent millions of requests. And it's difficult for me to open the site.

Xinxi Wang:
Man, you just selected the wrong target. Maybe you should try this after a few months.

DD4BC Team:
OK, contact me within a few months and I will stop the attack.

CloudFlare will not help.

And one more thing: Price is 1 BTC today. Tomorrow it will increase to 2 BTC and will keep increasing for every day of delay.

Xinxi Wang:
Man, I am a computer science PhD student, and I don't have so much money.

DD4BC Team:
Good for you. I'm not sure how is your formal education going to help in this situation, but...good luck.

Xinxi Wang:
I also think so.

BTW, The site is now working although they are still attacking.

Ignore him, he does this to many sites.

Options give more profit if the price is volatile. I will start buying options when there is a movement in bitcoin price.

Yes, have you tried recently? It's quite volatile.

What's the BTC exchange you get price?

We use Bitstamp, Bitfinex, Karen, BTC-E, BTCChina CampBX. We calculate a average of these price ticks weighted by the bid and ask amount.

Suggestion:

At the history segment it would be nice if bitcoin addresses are selectable so that I can copy paste it into my browser.
It would be even better if the address is hyperlinked to blockchain.info so that you can see directly what the status is.

I joined your campaign and try to learn trading options on your website.
I noticed two things:

When logged in and you refresh the page, you'll get this message. It's annoying and confusing. It could be done different I think

When you press the Coinut logo topleft, the browser opens a new tab while I expect to stay on the same tab and go to the homescreen (whatever that should be)

I still don't really get it yet, but I think I just have to read a little bit longer.

We design the application in a way that you don't need to refresh your page. Everything is updated automatically. Isn't this better?

Another reason that we don't support refreshing is that we don't rely on cookies, because cookies could be stolen and thus insecure. That's why you see many internet banking systems also do not support refresh. Also because we don't use cookie to track your session, you cannot go to the homepage and then back to the trading interface within one tab. That's why the home page is opened in a new tab.

Sure, but only English posts of you will count. Is that OK to you?

No problem, I hardly post in the Dutch forum anyway.
If I'm restricted to english I will only post in the English forums.

You can still post in Dutch, but we will not count those.

No problem.

Where can I check if I'm enrolled? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/closed-coinutcom-signature-campaign-pay-per-post-weekly-877329 still says 1 open slot for senior member.

Today I signed up for the signature campaign and was required to trade an option.
I think I did, but I also think it costed less than 0,01BTC while the website says 0,01 is minimum, is this right?

Yeah, you are right, if you buy options, you need less than 0.01 BTC. But usually you need more than that to do meaningful trading.

Ok, thanks for the quick reply but I don't want to loose much BTC because I'm new to options.
Just trying out first.
Do I now meet the requirements for the signature campaign as well?
I saw there is still one open slot.
