1124  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Custom Bitcoin address ? on: April 05, 2014, 07:40:52 PM
by hack, I meant how likely is someone to find the correct private key given the public key with that generator
If you mean, how likely is it that someone could generate a private key that matches an already existing and in-use bitcoin address that has funds in it, then the answer is:

Astronomically small, so small that there probably isn't enough energy in the known universe to power the hardware needed to do it.


what if you are just powering 1 desktop computer that exists in parallel realities
where each reality is working on a different [quantum] exponent
1125  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Custom Bitcoin address ? on: April 05, 2014, 07:28:15 PM
what's the chances someone could hack those custom addresses (or any other addreses for that matter)

No absolutely not (if you have generated the private key on a offline computer with your own program, and used a good random algorithm)

(brainwallets are "easy" to hack, but that is a completely different story).

As long as your search random (at least as random as your computer allows you) for your public key, then is the chance very small for someone to find the same private key.

When that is said: I am personally very paranoid about my long-term storage private keys, they are all created with physical die's, to avoid the pseudo randomness that all computers have.  

so all i'd have to do is hack your place and time (i.e. take a picture of you rolling the dice, then do a SHA-224 sum of the file) and plug that in the brainwallet

if i sent Bitcoins with a send date of January 1, 2010

I also think that if you are not using the correct time in a transaction full nodes and miners will reject it from the network.


There is no timestamp in transaction!

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Transactions

so if i lose at Satoshi Dice, i can fix the block chain on my end so the transaction never happened, and propagate it using a 51% quantum attack?
1127  Economy / Service Discussion / How do Satoshi Dice work? on: April 05, 2014, 05:45:52 PM
do they read in the blockchain from the start?

like if i sent Bitcoins with a send date of January 1, 2010 to Satoshi Dice, would i expect a response from the year 2010 or from 2014?

and sending with a past date, would it affect the early part of the Bitchain near the "send" date or the end part?

and to do this, i would just use multibit and set my computer clock back to 2009?   Grin

1130  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / idea for a new coin on: April 05, 2014, 03:33:43 PM
start at a value (say 0.01) then double each block

block 1 - 0.01
block 2 - 0.02
block 3 - 0.04
block 4 - 0.08
block 5 - 0.16
block 6 - 0.32
block 7 - 0.64
block 8 - 1.28
block 9 - 2.56

each block is worth the same number of coins (0.567 bitcoin).

however, if we quantumly bet a block on Satoshi Dice.  then we are only risking 0.567 bitcoins.  if the block we lost is above 6 we lost money, if it is below 7 we lost

if we win, each block is now worth double (1.12 BTC), if we lose, we must reshuffle the block chain

so if we lost block 9, our quantum block would be down to 0.28 bitcoins
if we lost block 8, our quantum block would be down to 0.425 bitcoins
if we lost block 7, our quantum block would be down to 0.496 bitcoins
.. etc..

so basically by betting 100% of our money, we will either double are money, or lose fractionally.

it's a win win  Grin


lets examine the worst case scenario where the quantum block is worth only 0.28 Bitcoins

then we bet again the 0.28.  and win, we get back to where we were before Shocked

if we lose, then we will only accept a fractional loss

50% if it is the final block, 25% the previous, so u can see where having a large number of blocks than 9 is totally worth it

pay them with Bitcoins, and after each tip, tell them that the price has doubled so just give her half each time

Sometimes I just feel completely detached from myself  Huh everything and everyone becomes strange. I see my brother, I know he is my brother but feel myself asking, who is this man I call my brother, the man I have known my whole life yet at this moment he seems like just a random guy no feeling or attachment just an intense awareness of the present moment.  Huh Than poof and I am back to my normal self.

This has been happening to me since I was a kid, do you guys ever get that same feeling? btw I love my brother  Smiley and I am a normal guy.


uh yeah your brother is normal just buy some more BTCitcoins.  Hurry!!

1138  Other / Off-topic / Re: Gambled away my tuition bitcoins on: April 04, 2014, 07:33:20 PM
I feel like a fool right now and I really need to just talk about this. This isn't an attempt solicit donations.

I didn't lose a ridiculous amount of money. In fact, I *only* lost about 7.7 bitcoins, which would currently equate to about 6000 dollars. But the problem is that as a full-time university student, this was 90% of my savings. And since student loans don't cover the full cost of my expenses, I don't have any money after this semester.

I was never a gambler. I've never gone to a casino. I've never played poker. Hell, I never even bought a lottery ticket. But for some reason when I saw a post about a website called just-dice.com, where you can bet bitcoins on a dice game, I was immediately hooked. I created a plan for myself - I said that I would play careful and control my bets. I would withdraw BTC after winning 50% of my initial deposit. Everything was going rather smoothly; although I went down a few times, I ended up hitting 9.5 bitcoins yesterday.

But then I couldn't control myself and thought that I could keep going, even in face of mathematical logic. I lost 1.5 bitcoins. Then I deposted two more. I lost those too. Then again the same. Until I saw all my money vanish and I realized the horror of what I had done. In case anyone is curious, here is the image of my loss (-7.7btc).

https://i.imgur.com/RjPodBl.jpg

I didn't sleep last night and all I could think about during class today was how much of a loser and moron I am. I just hate myself for throwing away my own hard-earned money.

edit: updated to final lost value of money from 5.7 to 7.7 I'm a broke ass fool.



i'll sell u 7.7 satoshi coins for 0.00000004.  they are worth the price of a BTCitcoin, and my site also supports Satoshi dice and other fun games in the works (like Beehive mario)
1139  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How much longer do you think Bitcoin will last? on: April 04, 2014, 07:29:54 PM
Technically it will never end, if at least two people keep using it.

The question is if and when it will be replaced as the most used and/or valuable cryptocurrency...


Ok once its mainstream it will last as long as people continue to use it,  Wont die from there, unless someone can destroy it

it's not technically illegal to destroy it is it?
1140  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to know when an IPO is a scam? on: April 04, 2014, 06:34:27 PM
It seems even that with a trusted escrow, the general concensus is that any coin with a IPO and any percentage of premine is a pump- and-dump-profit-scam-run-away-to-hawaii-and-ride-in-my-laborghini. Im asking this as I would like to invest in some coins (not naming coins, unless relevent as I do not want a flame war between trolls and puppet accounts) by buying a stake in the IPO, but IDK which ones are legit, and which ones are scam.

the ones that are built on trust aren't scam (i.e. SatoshiCoin is based on trust of Bitcoin Blockchain).  all the Public Keys are listed publically, pretty much proving that we have a structured plan.   Roll Eyes
