To the person below me--admissions are based on geography. One way they do it is with ridiculous out-of-state fees. When I was thinking about transferring to NEOUCOM in Ohio the tuition was $110k/yr for out of state for the 3rd year...compa

Since I can't reply to the comment below me--Now that we understand ecommerce we're profitable from day one with our new brand launches. It usually takes about 2-3 months before we're doing 20k/mo revenue online with 100% margins.

The evolution was CPU -> GPU -> FPGA -> ASIC. Now that we're at the ASIC stage growth is going to slow considerably. There's no longer order of magnitude gains to be made.

The profitability of ASICs is going to decrease at a rapid rate once they start shipping to consumers. Additionally, in a few months the market is going to be flooded with cheap ASICs. From BFL's perspective if they don't release first they

Spot on. Moving BTC between exchanges is a 30minute process. With sufficient cash in both accounts it wouldn't have been an issue.

IMHO, the markets aren't ready yet. 1) The available APIs sucks. MtGox's trading engine tops out at 37TPS. Thirty seven. Price swings trigger situations where you can have minutes of lag where price discovery is impossible. These are, unfor

No, we finished coding a trading dashboard and we were building the arbitrage functionality last night. The general premise is this: match bids on mtgox with asks on bitfloor when transaction fees are less than the spread. Then later on you

This is pure speculation but I think it could have something to do with them using CapitalOne's P2P transfer for high volume business transactions. I'm sure they violated the terms of service somewhere.

I paid 1600 for a two bedroom 1100sqft apartment in a nice area(wicker park) in 2011-2012. With no need for a car or car insurance it was more affordable than I expected.

An MRI doesn't have a cost in America. The cost depends on, obviously, your perspective. Are you a patient? If so, are you insured? Are you a hospital? Medicare? What state are you in? Are we talking cost or are we talking reimbursement?

This is especially ironic considering shopify does not offer dropshipping. I've had multiple people inquire about dropshipping our products but we've never been able to make it work.

Coinbase's "daily limit" is, as far as I can tell, a rolling "daily limit". Keep retrying and you can buy bitcoins. Source: I bought BTC on coinbase right before I replied to your comment.
