Title: 2013-11-26 ZDNET: Bitcoin developers offer $10K bounty to fix mystery Mac bug. Post by: zeroday on November 26, 2013, 04:29:55 PM http://www.zdnet.com/bitcoin-developers-offer-10000-virtual-bounty-to-fix-mystery-mac-bug-7000023632/
Quote Bitcoin developers and their counterparts backing the younger, rival virtual currency Litecoin have thrown together a virtual bounty worth around $10,000 for anyone who can figure out what's causing a data corruption issue in certain Bitcoin and Litecoin wallets on Macs. s some first noted several months ago, the introduction of the LevelDB key store database into the Bitcoin-qt client versions 0.8.x (currently at 0.8.5) coincided with a data corruption bug affecting Bitcoin users on Mac OS X machines. It seems Apple does all possible to keep bitcoin away from their products. Title: Re: 2013-11-26 ZDNET: Bitcoin developers offer $10K bounty to fix mystery Mac bug.

Post by: Carlton Banks on November 28, 2013, 03:02:51 PM It seems to be on it's way to being fixed (the developers have been on the right track for days now, it's to do with the way the OSX based compiler interprets the code in the libraries Bitcoin uses for it's database storage) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=337294.msg3745372#msg3745372
