- use vanitygen to generate your own 1Rain, 1Sunny, 1Snow, 1Tornado etc. BTC addresses - import these into Bitcoin Core using importprivkey and fund them - form a transaction from all these vanity addresses to my 1WeathrState subscription address - then, each day my system will send you 1 mBTC to one of your vanity weather addresses - thus, you can see incoming transaction indicating the weather for your location right directly in your client! - I collect just moderate 5% fee for this wonderfull service Title: Re: use bitcoin gui for other purposes Post by: Satosh¡ Slot on March 26, 2014, 05:20:07 AM Yes, it can.
