Why are a bunch of posts missing from this thread?

Why was this thread moved over to meta when it  has to do with hacking? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/was-bitcointalk-hacked-48694

Edit by Maged: the off-topic posts here were moved to https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/re-buying-bitcoin-through-google-checkout-48633
Now, stick to the topic, please.

I am about to add some technologies I've been experimenting with to the TF2 trading system and make things a little easier for people who make money with this gig, through Bitcoins.

Good luck, I think people have looked into similar things https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/team-fortress-2-as-a-payment-processor-for-bitcoins-23516

I have found two services that sold Bitcoins through Google Checkout. One was http://accesscoin.com and I have forgotten the other. From what I can tell, they are now offline.

Is it still viable to sell Bitcoins through Google Checkout? I am building a financial service for an in-game economy and this payment method would be perfect for new users of Bitcoin.

I loaned this individual 100 BTC and was paid back on time. I've not heard any complaints from any buyers, either.
This is just what I need. Thank you.

Unsurprisingly, Apple nor Google will ever allow for digital currencies to be exchanged through their systems as a part of their TOS.

As for in-app purchasing, we've been developing iPhone and Android apps for our service with lower rates but we're working directly with the carriers to get around this issue.

Good luck in your endeavors in the future!

Hm, it seems there are a lot more obstacles than I thought. I guess reversible currencies don't trasfer well to irreversible ones. Well, thank you guys. This is a quick community you have here. I appreciate the fast response.

This is a great idea! Since you're a new member and have been properly whitelisted, I can't wait to try out your new financial service. Can I be one of the first to sign up?
I'll contact you personally.
