I'm wondering if there are message boards where people sell -- assuming a person might need to get rid of them because they need emergency cash and is offering a big discount. In other words, keeping a lookout for threads of such nature.
Oh and I'm browsing localbitcoins.com and so far the best prices I'm seeing are for foreign listings. For example, most Bitcoins are currently listed at around 320-330 dollars; I'm looking at an Afghanistan listing where they're listed at 303 dollars. Accepted method of pay is OKPay. Are there any downsides or restrictions to buying from foreign users.

About the SR seizure, is it true that 200 million USD was seized? If so, that's just insane

@blackglass:
I don't think they have $200 million USD in BTC, but they certainly have a fuck ton.

it's starting to crash now, but the problem is it never drops enough to justify me buying in.
after the last big drop about 2 or so months ago, it got down to about 70p/btc ... if i hadve dropped 10 grand like i was planning to then, i would have about 40-50 grand++ before tax right now.
kind of kicking myself.
it's too risky though. like it had multiple mini crashes between the rise from 70-~350, and it rose gradually with the exception of just a few short 10-20$ per day gains. in the last 3-4 days its gone crazy from like 260, up to like 390 max or something!!!!

It is a risky game, but so is stock marketing in general. IMO in the long term, bit coins value will always go up, despite crashes etc... Even if you buy them when they are $125 a piece, in the long term, you will gain profit.
It's all about waiting to sell at the right time.

there was one guy on here who used to mine a shitload of bitcoins with some 9 PC rig, he must be absolutely rolling in cash now. his name was diecommie or something. he was mining shitloads back when btc was only like 5-10-15 per coin.
with the ammount of coins he had i seriously think he would having hundreds of thousands now, no joke
like he was way into bitcoins before even the first initial bubble, let alone the second one. and he mines them free, doesnt have to purchase them at a price and resell!

@souldarity: 9 PC desktops was a lot then, but now they wouldn't mine much. He's probably sitting on a fat stack, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's under 200K total.

eitherway he must be absolutely rolling in cash. it wasn't so much about how much he was mining with his rig, but for how long and how early on he was mining, when the bTC were really cheap. talking like more then %2000 increase in value.
remember the example i said, from just 2 months, with 10k initial @70 p/coin, its ridden up to ~350 now, which would mean a gain of like 40k if i sold at the peak.
he would have ridden up the first initial bubble and made a killing, then the second as well.

Ah okay that's very true, but don't forget the difficulty to mine goes up, which makes your hardware more obsolete as time goes on. Yea he's probably rolling in cash now thats for sure.

Litecoin is a joke IMO, it offers nothing up to the table that bitcoin doesn't already offer. Bitcoin has more support for it, and more popularity so it's the go to. LTC is also more easily controlled by people on a smaller scale then bitcoin simply because LTC user base is smaller.
Granted, if you don't have ASIC miners, then a trick I've heard people do is mine LTC, convert to BTC.

Yeah he made a few posts again within the last little while. I asked him if he was a millionaire now and he said not quite but he had done pretty well.
