10081  Local / Deutsch (German) / Re: ab wann muss man steuern auf Bitcoins zahlen on: May 25, 2014, 10:56:57 AM
Tag miteinander

ich bin seit ca. 1 Jahr arbeitslos gemeldet und bekomme zurzeit Notstandshilfe- etwa 580 Euro

Hast es ja nötig </sarkasmus>

Da ich mit Alt coins handle erziehle ich im Monat durschnittlich ca. 10.000 Euro einkommen. Tendenz stark nach oben.

Ich habe weder eine Ausbildung im kaufmaenischen Bereich noch habe ich sonst noch orgendwem mit dem ich ueber meine Finanzen reden kann.

Mal über nen Anwalt (Schweigepflicht) oder Steuerberater nachgedacht?

Ich habe nicht vor Steuern zu zahlen aber ich muss irgendwie meinen 7er BMW vor dem Finanzamt rechtfertigen Smiley

Wie? Geld einsammeln geht, aber wenn Du Deinen Teil leisten sollst...

Kann mir jemand helfen wie die Lage in oesterreich aussieht??

Zurzeit ueberweise ich die Bitcoins aufmein Bankkonto, habe mittlerweile auch fake Credit Cards aus dem ausland, gibt es irgendwelche besseren moeglichkeiten meine Gewinne reinzuwaschen, bzw muss oder sollte ich mir sorgen wegen dem Finanzamt machen??

Super, immer schön übers eigene Konto laufen lassen, dann sind deine Sorgen bald vorbei.

Das andere Problem ist da ich in Oesterreich vorbestraft bin kann ich mich auch nicht selbststaendig machen, kann man mich also daran hindern Geld zu verdienen??

Quatsch, hast Du mal ernsthaft versucht ein Gewerbeschein zu bekommen?

Ich denke mir auch wenn mich der staat schon kein Gewerbe anmelden lasst dann kann er mich auch am Arsch lecken das ich ihm Steuern auf meine Gewinne bezahle

Gut, haste Deinen Pass schon abgegeben? Vorsicht die Straße ist auch Eigentum des Staates, kannste deinen 7er gleich in der Garage lassen. Und wenn mal was ist, nicht die Polizei, Feuerwehr rufen! Wenn Du das wenigstens ernst meinen würdest und ernsthaft Deine Staatsbürgerschaft abgeben würdest, hätte ich respekt. So, seh ich nur einen asozialen der nimmt aber nichts gibt.

There are allways explanations why bitcoin is rising or why bitcoin is falling. A lot of them involve china.
Tradevolume of darkcoins are not higher than usual so I doubt the raise of bitcoin has anything to do with darkcoin.

10083  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: 51% attack on: May 25, 2014, 09:08:22 AM
What will happen to Bitcoin if a major coin like Litecoin suffers a 51 % attack?
Explain this 51% attack you speak of  Roll Eyes

A 51% attack is usually understood as a person or group (lets call he/she/them A) having 51% of the available hashing power. Most cryptocurrencies work with a blockchain where the longest chain is the valid one. So if you make a transaction and spend 10 LTC/BTC/whatevercoin but have the hashing power to revert this transaction by making a new longer chain that does not include said transaction, you can double spend coins. A could spend coins everywhere and when A got what was paid for, just "revoke" the coins, which usually is not possible. Even with 51% it is not allways possible. Finding a block is allways also a matter of chance and not only of pure hashingpower. With every "legit" block you have to find another "malicous" block. But there have been small (low overall hashingpower) altcoins that have been destroyed this way. Some big miners even consider it a good deed to destroy "pump and dump" coins.
With "the big" coins there is a major argument against a possible 51% attack. This would devalue the coin and thus reduce the usefullness. Think about the money youd have to spend to gather 51% of the Bitcoin hashingpower. This "investment" would probably never pay off.
Overall I dont think that any major coin will suffer a 51% attack any time soon.

after rebooting, wallet was locked. made many attemps to unlock wallet with no luck....

What was the error message?
Could it be that the two passwords did not match?

Hi,

lately whenever I try to write a post and even after not having been to this forum for days I get this annoying message:

That is from mobile, fixed IP, dynamic IP...always!

Login counts towards the 360 seconds. So you have to wait 6 minutes after login for your first post.

Please how can I see, which new topics were posted to a certain Board, or to the whole Forum?

If you want to see new topics from a subboard, do:

Watchlist -> Watch board -> Enter Board ID (e.g. Technical Support (ID 4)) -> klick Watch Board

Now every now post will end up on your Watchlist. If you dont want to follow that certain post any longer you have to "unwatch" it manually.

For the whole forum you can either use
show unread posts since last visit at the top

or put all subboards on your watchlist.

Start the resourcemonitor and start bitcoin core afterwards. That might give you a hint. Might be low RAM, slow HDD.
10089  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin QT doesn't synchronize with the blockchain on: May 23, 2014, 09:40:03 PM

Did you try turning it off and on again? Sometimes that helps.
Also check if you are actually downloading anything.
That's what I tried several times. It doesn't work.

As far as I can see, in the bottem left corner it says 'synchronizing with network'. I guess it is downloading?

Check Help -> Debug Window -> Network Traffic
There should be plenty of green. You can also check in the Information tab the current number of blocks and the estimated number of blocks

If you dont get any new blocks for several minutes try adding a node from this list https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Fallback_Nodes or this https://blockchain.info/connected-nodes
with
Code:
addnode ip/url add 
in the Console tab.

Hi all,

I have some problems with the bitcoin core. I downloaded it yesterday. It started synchronizing without any problems.
I left it synchonizing overnight, and when I woke up, it was only 16 weeks behind.

Now (12 hours later), it is at the same point as it was when I woke up. I have 8 active connections to the network, and the programm says that it is synchronizing.

What do I have to do to make it working?

I hate to be racist in any regard, but it is degrading the quality of the average post. I did check out the Indian sub-board (I believe most of these posters are Indian or they have a 1st language), and I think it'd be best of a lot of the content was posted there instead.

There is no race of "people that speak english at a level that bluefirecorp is happy with". No reason to be elitist or a grammarnazi either.

Bitcoin is international, so is this board. English is the major language of international communication. You should be happy that it isnt chinese or russian. Think about it the other way around. There is this massiv bitcoin place, where everyone is hanging out and 90% of them speak chinese, but you dont. What would you do? Would you go to the "english subforum" with ~3 posts daily or would you try to get along as best as you can with the little chinese you learned in school?

Your stats smell like you "only" speak english. You should be grateful that so many people all around the world learn your native language.
10092  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: bitcoind - 0 connections on Debian (searched all over for answer, no luck) on: May 22, 2014, 05:57:50 PM
Have definitely tracked it down to a firewall issue. As soon as I disable the firewall, it connects fine, but what should the correct firewall rules be?

Currently, I have my OUTPUT policy set to ACCEPT (less risky, easier to work with).

In my input policy I have the following rule:
Code:
-A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8333

I know that I typed UDP before, but I actually meant TCP.

looks like you are missing an -j ACCEPT here.

Just so you know, I currently cold store my BTC under a linux system, I have several of them, Problem is, I am quite the gamer, So I would like something I can put on my windows system That I would like to use for my every day activities to protect against Passwords/keyloggers/malware/trojans/virus/rootkit etc...

Just keep the most valueable stuff to your Linux system. Use Windows for entertainment, non critical uses.

Is there such a thing? What do you guys use?

No, Anti Virus software is dead. No matter what they tell you, they can only react to what is allready known. Most modern attacks use 0-days and thus no software can protect you against it. Keep the number of tool you use low and maintain them well. I personally use a simple free anti virus kit for windows. Its enough to catch the old stuff, but I rely on beeing carefull not on some "magical tool" that cant help me in most cases anyway.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lmy1Skg3wdE - speech about Zeus, one of things youd want to protect against. The maintainers of Zeus probably have better support than most "premium" anti virus software.
10094  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin Core causing severe congestion of Upload Network Bandwidth on: May 22, 2014, 06:29:46 AM
It is not normal for congestion to degrade performance to the point where a network is unsable, nor is it normal for people using network software to be experts in congestion control. If bitcoin is to remain distributed and not just disappear into the cloud as a new form of centralized money, the core software needs to work correctly out of the box in the real world of ISP supplied routers.

Yes it is normal for networks to become unusable when a single service is to demanding.

"Normal" people dont open ports. By opening a port you say: "Hello Internet I am a Server now, please enjoy your stay". You should be aware of this. There might be lot of "internet" coming your way. Well, you ask for it by opening the port.
Most ISPs give you the worst possible router. If you are lucky you can just make a DMZ and forward all traffic to your actual router that knows how to handle traffic. Sometimes the hardware is fine, so you just need new software (e.g. OpenWRT), but depending on the country you life in, that might be illegal. Sometimes you want to build your own router (see fli4l) or just invest a little in a good router (a linksys wrt54gl still does amazing work).

The bitcoin core software works correctly out of the box, noone asked you to open your port and configure your router to forward traffic. While its nice that you want to support the network, it can be demanding. So -as sugested- either stop supporting (close port) or shape traffic (QoS etc., proper router, local solution)

Other peer to peer protocols and bulk data transfer programs that do file sync have dealt with these problems by automatically recognizing available bandwidth and setting limits and/or allowing the user to control them directly.

It took them years. I dont use bittorrent anymore, but I have been around when you couldnt even get your mails because a single user in your network had a bittorrent client running for over 1 hour. And that was on a 2MBit/s connection when most peopl still had dial up connections. Bittorrent used to kill routers because of the number of connections and clog up the network without proper QoS. Many modern BT clients support some form of bandwith limitation because otherwise noone would use them. In every home network I managed for the past 10 years you "felt" when someone turned on the bittorrent client. Even with QoS bittorent is hard to handle when you still want VoIP and gaming, because you can only shape the traffic in your network, not the responses from the internet.

(Examples are many bittorrent clients.)  It is not realistic to expect the average bitcoiner to set up QoS features in a router supplied by their ISP which may not even have these essential features and certainly lacks decent documentation.

As I said above, most ISPs wont even give you a router that is able (by software) to do QoS. But imho it is also not realistic to expect the average bitcoiner to setup a server and open ports.

While this degradation was in effect I also observed that the stale rate seen by my miners doubled, even though they were running on a completely separate computer from Bitcoin Core.

10098  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin Core causing severe congestion of Upload Network Bandwidth on: May 21, 2014, 06:34:40 PM
I have Bitcoin Core   0.9.1.0  running through a DSL router with port 8333 open.  Since April this has worked well, but yesterday I observed that my Internet connection was horribly slow, with pings taking more than 1 second and lost packets. I examined the Network Traffic window of Bitcoin Core and observed that it was outputting traffic continuously (Red traffic) while not receiving any download traffic (Green traffic), not a normal pattern for these graphs.

I restarted Bitcoin Core and the problem ceased for a few hours.  The usual traffic pattern of moderate Green traffic, with peaks on new blocks and a moderate level of Red traffic prevailed.  Unfortunately, this situation lasted for only a few hours and it was back to all Red traffic.

Have other people experienced this problem recently?  Is this some kind of attack on bitcoin nodes?  If other people have similar problems then I suspect that there is some serious work needed on the network side of Bitcoin Core to make it more network friendly, or some new attack that needs to be dealt with.

Meanwhile, I've closed port 8333 at my router and will see if this stops the congestion. I am presently running 9 connections and traffic patterns appear normal, with blocks being received and relayed quickly and a low level of background traffic, presumably memory pool activity.

Any comments?


So basically you do something for the network (not just downloading, but also uploading) and you complain about it? Its perfectly normal behaviour if someone needs to download old blocks (or even the whole blockchain). If that makes your internet connection unusable you might want to use QoS (quality of service) or other form of traffic shaping on your router. Limiting bitcoin core's outgoing traffic to a low priority and upto 80% of your bandwith should do the trick.
10099  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Fee on: May 21, 2014, 10:53:42 AM

If you are trying to make micropayments as small as a few cent, you shouldn't use bitcoin, at least not on-chain tx.

What is "not on-chain tx"?

A TX is considered "not on chain" or "off chain" when its just internal. If you have an account with company X and they hold 3 BTC for you. I have one there as well and want to send you 2 BTC they can just change the BTC in my account by -2 and yours by +2. Just by changing an internal spreadsheet or database. If you now want to transfer 5 BTC from.company X to your private wallet there must be an "on chain" (as in stored on the blockchain) TX.
