Every time my system hangs, restarts, whatever, bitcoin qt fucks up the blocks database, has to re-index it. By starting over and re-downloading it.
From the fucking start. All the fucking blocks.
I don't have that issue. Also, if the database does get corrupt, you can run bitcoin-qt with -reindex to do a check of the database and only redownload the corrupt blocks. |

There's no way to bypass it in bitcoin-qt, however there are forks that can bypass. see: "no forced transaction fee" (search for it).

Is there a wallet that can do this atm without much fuss?
bitcoin-qt? |

There is a simple solution to "democratize" mining;
adopt a PoW that takes at least a GB of memory to solve
(with no time-memory tradeoff) and that depends on latency rather than bandwidth.
That would put an end to specialized mining hardware.
scrypt? |

please change the topic title because it's not descriptive at all.

More info?
I was curious as to why you are requesting a mining operation of that size instead of simply someone able to provide that quantity.
it's for coin laundering. mined coins = no history |

0.2 didn't have encryption. That was added in 0.6.0

Yes, it will, but it's not economical. the reason is that the transaction for consolidating all the dust will still be large (in size), so you will still have to pay a fee. furthermore, the fee you pay to consolidate the dust will be the same as the fee for spending the dust in a normal transaction. Therefore you're not making any savings by sending all your dust to one address.
Let's say I do the following: 1. Install Armory. 2. Send all of my bitcoins, which will include the dust amounts, in one transaction from my Bitcoin-QT wallet to my Armory wallet, and pay the transaction fee. After doing the above, am I correct to assume that my Armory wallet should not have any dust transactions? When I want to send/spend normal amounts of bitcoins (such as 0.001 BTC or 0.0001 BTC) from my Armory wallet, am I correct to assume that I should not be charged a transaction fee because I do not have dust transactions in my Armory wallet? yes, though i'm not sure about the mandatory fee policy with sub 0.01 BTC transactions. They should have been removed with the previous patch. |

You could do manual coin control and always put one or two dust outputs with your regular transactions that you pay a fee for.
Thanks for your suggestion. I searched for "manual coin control of bitcoin" but couldn't find anything relevant to this. Can you provide a link or explanation of how to do this? |

Is there any way of consolidating these dust amounts without paying the transaction fee?
You can try sending the transaction without a fee and hope for the best - it could take a day or more though. And it's possible that the transaction is never mined into a block. Thanks for your input. How can I try to send the transaction without a fee? Bitcoin-QT tells me there is a fee and it shows only two buttons: Cancel or Yes. What does it mean if the transaction is never mined into a block? Does it mean that I will lose the bitcoins in that transaction? check the sticky: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=232979.0 |

I was thinking of installing Armory and then transferring all of my bitcoins from my Bitcoin-QT wallet, in one transaction, to my Armory wallet. Will this eliminate the dust transactions by combining all of my dust amounts together? Will my new Armory wallet contain just one input transaction, and not over a dozen transactions of small amounts?
Yes, it will, but it's not economical. the reason is that the transaction for consolidating all the dust will still be large (in size), so you will still have to pay a fee. furthermore, the fee you pay to consolidate the dust will be the same as the fee for spending the dust in a normal transaction. Therefore you're not making any savings by sending all your dust to one address. Also keep in mind that dust-b-gone sends the dust to the miner, not to yourself. |

your wallet was compromised. there is no way to recover the funds. to prevent this from happening in the future, consider encrypting your wallet, choosing a better password, and keeping your computer secure.

code is obfuscated; no point in doing static analysis. I would recommend running in a VM and attach a debugger.

have you verified your bitcoin installation and installer with the provided checksums? Also, try "sfc /scannnow" to verify your system integrity. |

They have a guest login but anyone can get on the internet near the hotel, so is it safe to use the internet here to do bitcoin transactions and loggin to websites? Thanks.
You are safe from man in the middle attacks as long as its https UNLESS the hotel wifi admin is sniffing, he will be able to intercept pretty much anything you do no, you're still safe if you're using https. if the AP owner tries to MITM, your browser will show a certificate warning. |

the link leads to a page with a java applet. very likely a drive-by download page.
edit: confirmed drive-by applet. launches regedit to disable UAC.
