Re: Tipping
Mutatu, We have a service built into the CMS that does exactly this, and the full user version will be made public soon. It's how we're doing the "asset drops" already, you will be happy.

Re: Airtime on Let's Talk Bitcoin! [ AUCTION 5 CLOSES NOON Pacific time SUNDAY 7/13/14]CURRENT HIGH BIDS: 23k & 12k LTBc - LAST EPISODE WINNING BIDS: 32,542LTBc and 28,442LTBc for Brawker.com and CoinMarketCap.com
That's exactly it - there literally is no right answer and nobody knows anything. I started the bidding at 100 because nearly everyone who has LTBCOIN only has 160 they got from that first drop - the first real drop isn't until the end of the week at which point we'll have a bunch more floating around the ecosystem.
On the other hand, Wendell wants to buy a bunch of LTBCOIN so he's targetting the other demographic, the content creators who got big chunks for their work and might be interested in cashing some out since 1btc exponentially more than the average tips per episode.
So there are a couple of different interest groups all circling each other, looking for an opportunity. The auction here is just another little bit of pressure, my assumption is whatever the prices are for tuesdays episodes will be GREAT deals historically.

Re: SEO: posting on LTB forums VS my own blog
@cryptocoinuser Hi. I appreciate the opportunity to post on the forums of LetsTalkBitcoin, but I would also like to start my own blog.
Since it's hard to come up with two sets of original and useful content, it's temping to copy and paste every new entry form one place to the other. The questions is, which one should be first?
If you're concerned about SEO, you should know that Google & the search engines can usually spot "duplicate content", then take a guess which site had the content first, and then make sure to "punish" the site that allegedly stole the content from the "original" site.
However, Google does not monitor content on a daily basis, more like weekly or monthly. So if I copy an entry from my blog to this forum on the same day, Google might guesstimate wrongly that the form had the content first, and my blog stole it. Need I wait a week or two before copying an article from my blog to this forum?
Did anyone address this SEO penalty issue?
Thanks.
Yeah the goal isn't to have you post on the forum, if your content is good (and you're writing articles, not forum posts) you'll wind up on the front page, which will opt you in to some of the LTBCOIN distributions.

Re: Bitcoin adoption in the Philippines
Huh. That's a really interesting spin @helloluis, do you have any data you can share, or a mockup of your service?

Re: LTBCoin wallet and Counterwallet Question
Hey @brenner100
Thank you for the questions!
1 - You probably won't ever run a full node client because it would require you to re-index the entire bitcoin blockchain, which in my experiance takes more than 12 hours and generally is very not user friendly. It is not impossible, but it is non-ideal.
2 - Counterwallet is a blockchain.info style wallet, which is to say it's an open source terminal that lets you use your passphrase to access your tokens on the bitcoin blockchain. If Counterwallet went away, someone could install instance of counterwallet and the passwords of each individual would still work.
It is our intention to run a LTB branded wallet at some point in the near future, and for the last month we've actually offerred to the Counterparty folks to host a few backup instances just in case. They don't want us to do that yet because it would increase the number of places they have to patch when they improve counterwallet, which is an almost daily process right now (an hour of downtime yesterday morning to do a server upgrade for example)
I have always hated web wallets, but in this case the usability, built in exchange, and simplicity of getting set up (we've had 250 or so people properly sign up so far with a counterwallet address, imagine how many fewer people that would have been if we asked everyone to re-index)

@neoranga Is there any information about exchanges or places to buy LTBCoin and prices?
Since this is the beginning and there are not many LTBCoins in circulation, it's difficult to bid without knowing exactly what is the price of the bid compared to other tokens (BTC, EUR, etc) and where could I exchange some of the tokens I have for LTBCoin to bid for advertisements.
Right now simply nobody knows a fair price. In the past we've charged between 300-500 USD per 30 second sponsorship per show. you might just wait til a week from now when you'll get some LTBCOIN for posting on the forums, etc.
