121  Economy / Exchanges / Re: ALFAcashier.com - exchange Bitcoin/BTC-e/PerfectMoney/PayPal/MoneyPolo/OKPAY/etc on: January 04, 2017, 04:14:00 PM
So how would exchange from Bbitcoin to a Visa work?
I send you bitcoin and my Visa credit card details and then you deposit the exchange rated euros into my card (or would it go into my bank account)?
122  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Armory 0.95.1 is out on: January 02, 2017, 06:47:59 PM
Anyone has a recent size number of GB one needs right now for using Armory (to check wallets). Is it really 100 Gb now (counting the blockchain download of bitcoin core) or has this been streamlined somehow ? Thanks

You need to have the full block chain in order to use Armory online.  A Bitcoin Core install with full sync is just over 100GB. Armory no longer duplicates the block chain data, so as long as you can hold the entire block chain, you should be good to go.

Thanks 100 GB !!! Last time I'm using Armoury after this if I manage. Will forward all the bitcoins to another client that doesn't require full download of the blockchain for sure !!!!

124  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: How can I validate Electrum Windows version download ? on: January 02, 2017, 11:40:33 AM
Thanks for your explanation.
I am trying to do it as in an older thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1113222.0) which says:

Download Animazing's PGP key   (<--- replace with ThomasV)
Open up Kleopatra and go to File > Decrypt/Verify Files ...
Select the the electrum-2.3.2-setup.exe.asc.
Check the box for detached signature.
Click the button next to the first text box and select the setup exe file.
Click Decrypt/Verify and it will verify the signature.


But I'm getting:
https://s23.postimg.org/gobm4576z/electrum_signature_bad.jpg

[img]https://s23.postimg.org/gobm4576z/electrum_signature_bad.jpg[img]

Also don't know about the first step of downlowding the PGP key. I did so anyway, it's in Kleopatra with Thomas Voegtlin.


?
You are supposed to import the PGP key.

Since you didn't import it, the client does not know whose PGP key is 0x2BD5824B7F9470E6. Your pgp client would probably not say that the PGP key is fine if you don't import/specify that the client should ensure that the signature should verify to 0x2BD5824B7F9470E6.

Since it does indeed verifies that 0x2BD5824B7F9470E6(ThomasV's key) has signed the program, the program is authentic.

Yes I have imported Thomas V key in Kleopatra. Right now I have that key and also an earlier one I imported for another software (armoury).
But what use is this key if when selecting in Kleopatra File-Decrypt/Verify Files it only asks for the EXE and the ASC file, no mention of the certificate?

127  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: How can I verify Armory binaries (like I can Bitcoin Core / Gitian)? on: July 20, 2015, 08:50:05 AM
I tried gpg verifying following instructions in the download page for ubuntu:

Processing armory_0.85-beta_amd64.deb...
> GOODSIG _gpgbuilder 821F122936BDD565366AC36A4AB16AEA98832223 1353699840  <.....    this line not showing, only the previous one for ubuntu- Is it Ok ?
128  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Unable to Verify Armory Installers on: July 18, 2015, 10:09:37 AM
Same here, on Ubuntu 12-04 just get line:


Processing armory_0.93.2_ubuntu-64bit.deb...

but no GOODSIG line Huh?
129  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Can I have bitcoin core open and star armory too or only armory can be open? on: July 15, 2015, 12:27:26 PM
My latest efforts:

Installed latest ubuntu along with my windows in the laptop. Installed bitcoin core there, right now copying the blockchain from windows to ubuntu and next thing I'll have to do is reindex...after that...hoping with ubuntu I will finally be able to complete my ovjective...

Working great, I already had done most of reindexing on the windows installation and since I also copied the chainstate directory I see that bitcoin core on ubuntu continuing reindexing from where it left off...only 1 year and 35 weeks back reindexing to do baby !    Roll Eyes
130  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Armory stuck in offline mode... on: July 14, 2015, 09:37:07 AM
Hey DLS, I think we should upgrade out bitcoin core to 0.11 which was just released yesterda, just to see if it might work:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1119832.0

Another thing that I've been using to avoid the frequent problem of having to reindex:
Make a backup of the chainstate golder found in appdata/roaming/bitcoin. If you are asked to reindex you can always use the backet up copy to avoid it (if the backed up copy is reindexed already of course).
131  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Can I have bitcoin core open and star armory too or only armory can be open? on: July 11, 2015, 02:20:41 PM
You dont need the private key just to check balance. Use the public key instead.

Ok tks once more, will try then to: 1) obtain public key for each of my armory wallets.  2) see if with those I can then check balances with Electrum.

I had thought public keys were only for each address, not each wallet. Ok I'll try and report.
132  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Can I have bitcoin core open and star armory too or only armory can be open? on: July 11, 2015, 11:48:38 AM
Cool line about Linux being the name of the best antivirus !  Grin, For other reasons cannot use Linux on my win 7 64 laptop at the moment. This is the laptop I am trying to complete downloading the blockchain with to check balance of my armory watch only wallets (I generate these watch only wallets with armory in a different computer -that never goes online- that is running on Ubuntu).

One thing, if I can get the "private keys" for each of my Armory wallets, wouldn't I be able to check balances of these on a different client (Electrum), since it looks as if I am unable to complete downlowding blockchain with Armory or Bitcoin core alone?
133  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Armory stuck in offline mode... on: July 10, 2015, 10:45:36 AM
Any help from tech support about this issue?

Meantime I tried finishing downloading the blockchain just with bitcoin core, but it is stuck at 9 hours. Any ideas?
134  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Can I have bitcoin core open and star armory too or only armory can be open? on: July 10, 2015, 10:43:43 AM
Thanks again for all the replies/help.
Situation now is further complicated. bitcoin core continues stuck at last 9 hours. After I leave laptop on for a few hours to see if it goes beyond that the screen goes black and have no choice but to close by unpluggin the power line.
I ran my antivirus and it detects some virus/worms in some of the blockchain blocks. Will search the forum to see if this issue has been covered already. Meantime updating my antivirus and, as far as having to reindex again, which I'll have to do after unplugging the black screen laptop and thus not closing bitcoin core properly, hoping that having a backup of the chainstate folder (that someone told me would work) will allow me not to have to reindex again, which takes 3 days to do.
I went into my router a couple of days ago and made sure to establish that port 8333 is open by the way.
Any further comments will be appreciated.
135  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Can I have bitcoin core open and star armory too or only armory can be open? on: July 07, 2015, 01:21:49 PM
You are still auto managing bitcoind if it reports on bitcoin engine initialization. Turn off auto management as instructed previously, turn off Armory, start BitcoinQt, let it sync all the way, then turn on Armory.

Thanks again. Already tried to sync all the way with BitcoinQT but, as reported yesterday, it seemed stuck at "last 9 hours". It spent several hours saying that until I figured I'd switch to armory to see if , with my wallets open, it could finish. So, I would try as per your instructions here but bitcoinQt stuck last 9 hours !

Open Armory, in File -> Settings, turn off auto bitcoind management and restart Armory. From there on you will have to run Core manually.

Ok, thanks so much. I have exited bitcoin core with the exit option, hope don't have the same reindex problem later.
Meantime I launched armory. But...It seems stuck at 99% 54 blocks, and even more worrying, it says Offline at bottom right.
I have had it on for many hours.

I tried already with "skip online check" on and off, same result.

I am on windows 7. I do have some watch only wallets loaded, don't know if it makes a difference, blanked them out for security/privacy:



138  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin-qt reindexing again? on: July 06, 2015, 05:45:53 PM
Thanks, I am doing that right now. So, if next time I open bitcoin core it gives me the reindex problem again, can I just unzip this chainstate directory and replace the one in appdata/bitcoin with this backup and then no need to reindex again?
Yes, that's the idea.

I have some experimental drivers on my laptop and they occasionally blue-screen it. Thus far I tried 7-unzip twice and in both cases it worked and saved lot of re-indexing time. I just delete what's left in the chainstate directory right after blue-screen.

Interestingly Litecoin doesn't suffer the chainstate corruption under exactly same circumstances.



Great ! this is what i was looking for. Let's hope I don't run into the problem of having to reindex. I need to make sure I close down bitcoin core well and completely is something I've read regarding this problem elsewhere in these forums.

PS: Didn't know litecoin was still kicking; I bought a very little amount many months ago and saw that the price had collpased so thought it would probably dissapear completely.

Which version are you using?

I explained in my post that I would rather not close bitcoin core because it seems stuck downloading the "last 9 hours" of the blockchain and if I close it I might get the reindex problem again, so that' why I wanted to open armory, to see if I can check my offline wallets now, but without closing bitcoin core for the reason explained. So I can do it? there's an option in armory?...to uncheck that option I'd have to open armory at the same time as bitcoin core open now. Want to make sure it's ok to do so before opening armory.

Thanks for your reply.

You only need to open Armory for syncing when Bitcoin Core is run as a background process to download blockchain. You don't need to run Bitcoin Core manually for downloading blocks. That is why, I am asking "why you need to run Bitcoin Core and Armory simultaneously?" Why don't you run Armory alone?

0.93.2 windows 7 is version of armory I have.

The reason I prefered to download the blocks with bitcoin core is because previously I had done so with armory but at some point it seemed stuck and even said offline at bottom right, so I figured it'd be better to first download and reindex everything with bitcoin core and after that start armory to quickly check my offline wallets.
Right now situation is I have bitcoin core open; it finished reindexing everything today and continued to download the remaining blocks, at the moment bitcoin core seems stuck in "last 9 hours"; I'm afraid to close bitcoin core and open instead armory because, if I close bitcoin core now I may have the reindex needed thing again (done reindexing 2 times already, 3 days each time, and about 4 days when I downloaded the blockchain...

Why do you want to run Bitcoin Core and Armory simultaneously? Is not Armory enough?

Usually, Armory runs Bitcoin Core in background. I think if you uncheck that option, you may not get any problem.
