10161  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: PC wallet with similar function as Bither? on: May 12, 2014, 04:25:23 PM
-snip-
As I don't have a second phone and mainly use bitcoin from home rather than on the go I would be interested in mimicking this using my old unused notebook as cold wallet and my PC as hot wallet. Is there any wallet software that allows for doing that?

So do I understand you correctly? You want:

- offline PC with wallet to sign transactions (cold storrage)
- normal PC with normal wallet to transmit the transaction to the network, but has no private keys, thus hacking this machine is useless

Should be what you are looking for.

I believe it was SgtSpike who was running a server where he was paying for certain tasks. This was however funded by mining equipment which is now past it's prime in term of earnings, and his server got popular, so it may not pay much at all now.
Hi! I found his server, its here http://minecraftcc.com/index.php?forum/ if any of you want the links.  It seems to still be active, people are still replying in the forum and everything, but I can't seem to get onto the server. GRRRR.  Not sure why....
However! it is there, it is active, as far as I can tell, and he still does pay out for every block mined.  It has dropped in price, dramatically, but I'm on a lot. XD so hopefully it will give me...something....XD
I hope this helps everyone!

Run version 1.7.2, works fine Smiley

I am online right now using thebitmines.com as server address. Did you make sure to run Minecraft Version 1.6.4??

Ah nope, was using the current version. Connected now, will take a look when I have time. Thanks for the help =)

Managed to connect, seems dead to me though. There is one place near spawn that buys wood, but I cant sell any for some reason.

... And is there anything the "hacker" can do if he gets into your router?

Depending on the level of access the same you can do with your router and more.

Turn it off and brick it? Lol, so what?
Anyway, I don't use default password on my router, so I have nothing to worry about.

Well a bricked router would be a powerfull denial of service Wink

No, I was thinking about deep packet inspection or mitm to get your passwords. Or even mine bitcoins. Wasnt there a botnet that mined bitcoins off of routers? No longer usefull I guess, but routers usually dont use much of their cpu anyway. Not that a regular user would notice anyway. A router is the perfect place for an attack. Its the central of your home network.

Code:
Uptime	22 days, 08:02:15
CPU Load (1 / 5 / 15 mins) 0.00 / 0.00 / 0.00
CPU Usage 5.25%

Exactly. A lot of people think that by opening an email a hacker can "burn their hard disk" and "erase all their files".
Simply not true.

Well there have been times...

Dont write anything off as impossible. Modern systems are more secure because the devolpers learned from big mistakes in the past. Its not like they make big misstakes nowadays, right? right guys? guys?

Interested in buying 4 tf2 keys at 1.70$ each with bitcoins.

Sorry not selling any keys at the moment, only items. Will add/msg you when this changes.

I tried to add u on steam but i gives me error.

this is a false positive. Im pretty sure, you are not the first. Two reasons:

- the data in the blockchain is bound to match the signature of a virus over time
- there have been attempts to DoS bitcoins with specially crafted transactions that match the signature of a virus. (thread can be found by using search)

I might have time later for a lengthy answer. The short one is: this is a big pile of BS and whoever claims this has no idea.

#1 at best you get the IP of my mailserver (or the mail server of my mailprovider)
#2 if you have my IP you still need an attack vector. A vulnerability of some sort.

An alleged hacker(profesional, working With Security) totally dismissed bitcoin because he said it was easy to steal.

"Just make the person you want to steal from send you an e-mail and you get his ip. From there, "all you have to do is to implement a Trojan on his computer".


(I think he was making it sound a bit easier than it is..?)

Is this why there's a lot of bad smelling peeps here asking for contact threw e-mail on their first post? Because they know here sits a horde of bitcoin holders, big or small..


Just some noob questions. Can somoene hook me up With a Internet Security 101 that you know to be good i'd appreciate it.


thank you for Your time,
/Guru

Do I understand this correctly:

The claim is:

- Bob (Victim) sends Eve (Attacker) a Mail = Eve has IP of Bob
- Eve has IP of Bob and thus can infect Computer of Bob

Eve has no idea what computer bob is using or what other devices between Eve (or the internet) and Bobs computer (e.g. a router) only an IP?

Never knew its that easy...

I found my minecraft login, downloaded the client and tried to connect to the bit mines, buuut I cant.

The only thing I know of that is still active is TheBitMines.com.

I think you just "proved" that it's still millions to one against the entire network of 60 petahash or so finding a block... yet it happens 144 times a day...

You've definitely got some bad math or suppositions in there. I think you've done it on a per second basis. To late for math brain functions tonight though.

Hmm yeah now that you mention it, the number is way to big in comparison with the entire network.

Basic chance would be 1/264 not 1/1192 (approx 5.42*10-20) because you have to get the 64 bits correct and the others can be anything.
Also the 2,367,360 would be MHash/day, so 2,482,356,879,360 repetitions.
Thus lambda is approx 1.35*10-7

board breaks the wolframalpha links

1.35 in 10,000,000 or 1 in 7,407,407 which is pretty close to mufa's guess.

Lets do a sanity check for this with the entire network and 10 minutes.

68 PH/s = 6.8*1016 hash/s * 600 seconds = 4.08*1019 hash/10 minutes
Basic chance remains, as well as 1 Block success.

Lambda is approx 2.21

Thus

wolframalpha

The chance is ~ 24% which looks about right.

Thanks for the hint Flashman

Have you tried contacting their customer service or the CoinLearn user on here? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=228243 He was online and posting yesterday.

Yes I even replied to the last thread he/she was active in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=602422.msg6641007#msg6641007

Im currently considering to open a thread in scam accusations, not sure if thats fitting though since its "only a faucet"

If a service isn't paying its users then open up a thread with the evidence. It doesn't matter that it's just a faucet. Message the guy again and see if he doesn't respond. Do you know of any other CoinLearn members that haven't been paid or is it just you two?

Sometime around the 26th of april when coinlearn posted this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=585404.msg6405278#msg6405278
the homepage showed this msg
"You may find that your payments have been moved from pending to paid, but it is not showing up on blockchain. Please do not panic as we are processing your payment which will reflect on the blockchain soon."
It is still in this state and there has been no new "proof of payment". My balance for the last period (~80k satoshi) has also been removed to 0. I doubt that many people still use the page or even used it the last month.

That was all they said, and I e-mailed them asking, but no answer.
Can anyone tell me more about this?  Cheesy

I was paid by www.CoinLearn.org in February and March, but have not received the April payment as of yet. Are they paying anymore ?

I have the same problem as you, tried to contact CoinLearn, he didnt reply.
10179  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: bitcoin-qt falls back to 8 connections after some time on: May 10, 2014, 09:33:44 PM
Has this problem been fixed ? According to  a recent article on coindesk, 1000 of nodes disappear every night, IP address changing could contribute to the loss of nodes.

I dont think this is fixed yet, but I cant test it, since I dont get disconnected by my ISP.

The article you mention would be this http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-nodes-need/ I guess.
These nodes disappear because people turn their computers off and not because their ISPs change the IP.

As these charts suggest https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/dashboard/
this is indeed a minor problem.


-snip-
External IPs changing on an always-on connection should only affect a few users, perhaps a command line option to enable periodic polling of external IP would be the solution, so not everyone is hammering external IP service providers unnecessarily by default.

There seem to be several discussions going on about a possible solution.
You can reach most of them from here:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/3088

A possible workaround would be a cronjob that restarts bitcoin core every x hours.
