It seems to me that you have accidentally put 0.3 on the fee field... BTW, would it be difficulty to add a warning for extremely high fee? Say, warn the user when the per KB fee is 0.001+ (10x min fee), and the user can choose to revise the fee setting or still create that transaction. Edit: btcven beats me for that fee warning suggestion.  Sounds good. The satoshi client just implemented this feature in their latest RC by the way. Can't believe it took 4 years to add this! |

is blockchain.info as exact (a few minutes lag would be ok)? Can not access the above site..
Yes, actually it's better to look at blockchain.info (only 10 blocks left) It seems that the confirmations are a bit quicker than 10m on average these days, so I woudn't bet on more than 1h to make your last burn. Less than 60 minutes left! Yay. |

This is what a whois query shows.
Could you explain?

Hello, I was able to recover my password off my ipad. I used iTools 2013 to browse the Blockchain.info Application files. I exported the /Library/Preferences/com.rainydayapps.Blockchain.plistx file to my PC and was able to find the password in clear text inside the file. The best part is I didn't even have to jailbreak it.  Let me know if it works for you. BTC - 14Hgz6bSrVS8rBhAg2CzHXVk2s5NUMbBm5 Please don't mention itools, it's a shady closed-source tool and i wouldn't trust it |

So I just witnessed a poor chum paying $75 in fees to move 0.61 BTC (about $500)! How can this happen? Tell me this is a wallet bug.  |

I tinkered a little bit with this and now I've got a dynamic chainsnort desktop wallpaper   I'm thinking of making a little blog post on how to do this, if someone is interested. |

I am reminded of the directory separator being a different character in Japanese DOS, "¥", and this is likely the case on the Swedish localized Win95, that there is a particular key to be used in different language. A localized keyboard with English Windows may have similar problems.
In the Japanese encodings ISO 646 (a 7-bit code based on ASCII), JIS X 0201 (an 8-bit code), and Shift JIS (a multi-byte encoding which is 8-bit for ASCII), the code point 0x5C that would be used for backslash in ASCII is instead rendered as a yen mark (¥), while in Korean encoding, it is drawn as a won currency symbol (₩). Computer programs still treat the code as a backslash in these environments, causing confusion, especially in MS-DOS filenames.[13] Due to extensive use of the backslash code point to represent the yen mark, even today some Unicode fonts like MS Mincho render the backslash character as a ¥, so the Unicode characters 00A5 (¥) and 005C (\) look identical when these fonts are selected. Several other ISO 646 versions also replace backslash with characters like Ö (German, Swedish), Ø (Danish, Norwegian), ç (French) and Ñ (Spanish), leading to similar problems. Since the character was originally not available in all character sets and keyboard layouts, ANSI C can transcribe it in form of the trigraph ??/ which, outside string literals, is equivalent to the \ character. RFC 1345 recommends to transcribe the character as digraph //, if not available.[14]
alt+shift+7 is apparently how you type \ on a Swedish keyboard if you need that character.
Or: AltGr + should work too |

I want to be able to use the clipboard for input and output.
What?? Linux has a clipboard too. When did he mention Linux? And the condescending tone of your comments is sometimes annoying. Please stop doing that. |

I didn't read all posts, but seriously windows 95 ? why ?
if you are just playing around and not that you cant afford a new PC that can run windows 7 or Ubuntu 12.04 then I really want to know why Win95 ?
if you are from EU and if you can not afford a new PC I can donate a used machine that I do not use anymore, it has a Core2Duo 2.33 GHz and 3GB DDR2, and 320 or 500 GB (don't remember) and it is a Lenovo SFF that comes with windows Vista licence that you can downgrade to win XP if you wish.
Thank you for the offer, but i'm fine Older machines maybe have less surveillance on them like these: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13578_3-57617244-38/nsa-reportedly-using-radio-waves-to-tap-offline-computers/So you are so security paranoid (above article) yet deciding to use still a very old operating system with guaranteed holes and flaws in... Ok bud; good luck! Using an antiquated OS actually does make some sense in this context. Provided it is used on an airgapped machine, of course. |

I had the computer lying around, i though i would generate addresses offline with it and then keep it offline in case there is a virus that can upload the addresses that the computer generated offline once it gets online again.
Well the problem is that with a Windows version that old you don't even know whether you are getting cryptographically secure private keys. MS software that old did have a weak random number generator if I remember correctly. You know you can install Linux on old computers. A debian wheezy + xfce installation uses barely any resources. Not sure how feasible that might be for you though. Depends on your skill level. It seems OP doesn't want the Win95 machine to generate the privkeys - just to convert a hex input into a bitcoin address - if I understand the top post correctly. |

You can't really lose money so why not try it and see how it works for you.
Until quite recently there were a bunch of issues that could cause peoples wallets to lose sync with the network. A couple were genuine bugs that were fixed, and others were to do with a key import/backup restore ui that was hard for people to use correctly. The combination of the bugfixes and the changed/simplified ui seems to have fixed things.
Now this is a little misleading isn't it? The Issues page has more than a few cases of BTC lost: https://github.com/jim618/multibit/issues |

Sorry, maybe I am not being clear. Let's say someone did guess my passphrase, and they knew my BTC address. How in the world could they transfer? Are there transfer services where these two are all you need?  Ritual. Ps: /paranoid mode on Www.brainwallet.org |

The noble thing to do is to move the BTC to a new address and leave a message in the tx for the owner to contact you.
Question is how can you verify the one who contacts you with the correct passphrase is the REAL owner?
He could be just another brainwallet cracker...
Exactly. |

Move the funds to a secure address (if you have found this brainwallet manually, it means it is very vulnerable to automated bruteforcing attacks by hackers) then reveal the passphrase to give an example of how NOT to choose a passphrase.

I'm getting this error message when running the latest Electrum on Linux (Puppy Precise distro):

Hey, how about adding support for twitter API - ie, sending automatic tweets when certain conditions are met? That would be dope...

With this one and the other recent moves, something's big must be brewing...  Sender address is 13feB9zjoMdz6ka7tx45aCGbyKJPTZb4L9  |
