141  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Miners: Time to deprioritise/filter address reuse! on: November 16, 2013, 12:46:35 PM
Luke, can you describe more clearly what the patch does?
in particular:
- one reuse of any given address per block, or one address reuse per block?
- does it concern only  inputs, outputs, or both?  for example, an address
that has several inputs and tries to spend them all is deprioritized or not ?

right now the  [rationale/code] and  [reasoning/action] ratios are really too low.

new statement

"residency registration certificate"

what does that even mean.
poor English becomes incomprehensible when it's about legal documents

Anyway for now you can't upload documents anywhere


It is "Meldebescheinigung" in German. I do not know what it means exactly. But I guess it is something that proves your residency (eg. electricity bill).

electricity bill is also on their list, separately. So it must be something else.
143  Local / Espaρol (Spanish) / BTC en Chile ? on: November 14, 2013, 02:05:27 PM

sorry for an English post: I thought I'd find the target audience for it here.
You can reply in Spanish if you like (I'm learning Spanish)
So the question is:

is  there a stable bitcoin market in Chile ?

I'll be moving there for a year, and I'm considering using btc for money transfer:
buy with my european bank account, sell there. For this I'd need a  "stable" exchange in Chile. By "stable" I mean
low spreads and that it's  not going to disappear tomorrow; we all know the price is not stable.


thanks

148  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: sweet mother of god, the blockchain is HUGE on: November 12, 2013, 10:12:15 AM
according to the devs, the "default" client is no longer bitcoin-qt but Multibit

It takes less than a minute to be fully connected after downloading the client (it's an SPV client,
it doesn't download the blockchain). It'd be somewhat longer if you have to import
old private keys (the older they are, the longer it takes to synchronise) but it's still incomparable to downloading
the whole blockchain.
149  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Generate private key offline on iPad? on: November 12, 2013, 09:15:53 AM
you can go to bitaddress.org and just save that page.

Then you don't need internet connection to open it, you just
need the file with the page and you can generate new addresses anytime
without internet.  All the needed javascript code is inside that one page:
it's designed to be client-side, usable offline.

after deciding that we want a refund (I'm not sure we have a majority yet), the main
question is getting the btc back from HF. This may not be trivial.
What to do with the funds next (invest in other GBs,
bet on horses, spend on blow...)  is a different and I'd say an unrelated question. 
154  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Majority is not Enough: Bitcoin Mining is Vulnerable on: November 05, 2013, 08:52:51 AM
a slightly different question:

how would we detect if such an attack is taking place?

As far as I understand, the attacking miner would have a slightly higher
ratio of blocks broadcast in pairs. That is, normally if his block rate  is alpha
then  rate for pairs should be alpha^2,  but if he is running the attack this value would
be slightly but significantly higher, and depends on gamma (how successful he is with
his sybil attack). It'd take a long time to detect though

would the refund be in BTC (at the time of purchase) or USD?

My vote is: if in BTC then yes, if in USD then no

Definetely the Faucet that paid more in all the Bitcoin History Smiley



Definitely not. The original Gavin's faucet used to pay 5BTC to anyone who solves a captcha.

(yes, it was quite a few price rallies back in time...)
157  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: howto nlocktime on: November 02, 2013, 03:05:35 PM
Nlocktime is not properly supported at this time, so you can't do what you want with it, as far as I know, unfortunately.

that's a bad news... and just as I was about to spend half a day creating and editing those raw transactions.

However a friend of mine has developed a generic self-discipline time-lock type of app that could, among other things, help you secure those coins. He made it specifically for dealing with gambling addiction issues.

If you're interested, I will check with him what's the status on that.

yes, I'm interested. Provided it's  secure and trust-free

re offchain/onchain:

an advantage of onchain games (not mentioned in the OP) is that they are "more provably fair."
An offchain site could just change your balance to any amount. Then you could go
complain on the forums, but it'd be your reputation against theirs. Can't do it with onchain.

but on the otherhand after gambling onchain anyone whom you send your coins
will see that you are a gambler. Unless you lauder your coins of course.

Very good point you are making there, never considered the privacy side of it.

Offchain/onchain is a complex discussion and maybe deserves another thread. Smiley We certainly noticed that many players ask for offchain because it seems to be the trend, event though many of them don't understand the implications.
...

yep, pretty good break down.
But there's no contradiction in offering both offchain and onchain-
I suppose all it takes is the demand for it and of course the time.
159  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What characteristics make a solid brain wallet? on: November 01, 2013, 11:43:06 AM
one difficult-to-measure parameter of a brain wallet is how well you are able to remember
the pass phrase. May be you are "pretty sure" to have it right now, but you memory
may not be as good in a year, in 10 years ... Do you remember your passwords from 10 years ago right now?
Of course it's not as much of a problem if it's for a short time.

Unless you lauder ............ please explain?

launder, sorry. it was a typo.
I mean, running them through some collective wallet
