He ! Thank you for the support

Not a lot of people are using the surf4bitcoin service, because we are just launching it (3 now).
Both projects (surf4bitcoin and CharityAd) have separated accounts, the number of users at CharityAd doesn't count in surf4bitcoin.

If you look at http://charityad.org/Stats, which has been started several month ago, you'll see that the money generated is about 250$ per month!

So, it may not be interesting enough for you now (0.10BTC per week), but as more and more users will install it, the winnings will be much higher.
Still not conviced ? :p

Good :p
Go on helping newbie, and helping bitcoin

Install surf4bitcoin (plugin is provided by CharityAd), it'll try to block all popups (black list of known ad networks) :p

Sent 0.50BTC :p
Spread them to newbies

Thanks.
Do you want a bitcoin to add me to the newbie loto ? :p

Hehe, you're right, it is better to be cautious :p

It's a firefox or chrome plugin (what did you mean by "i'll add you to my site" ?)
Thank you for your future participation :p

When I see "our ads" it doesn't mean that we manage ads directly.
We have no ads on our side (excepts if we want to promote the project on ad networks, but that's another story).
Ads displayed by the plugin are taken from other ad networks.

Here is a small workflow :
Default ads => intercepted by the plugin => redirected to our server => the server select an ad network where we have an account => an ad is displayed by the chosen ad network.
The main difference is that we gain money on this ad and can make donations/bitcoin games/etc with that.

So, the ads you'll see will come from google, adnetwork or advertstream for example.

As trustworthy as I am, so get your own opinion :p
I'm the main namecoin developer (even if not active at all on it since several month, gasp).

I've added some replies to Portnoy questions here :
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=148697.msg1578724#msg1578724

And, you can check the CharityAd website too and see that we make real donations :
http://en.charityad.org/Stats

It will not affect your usage of web-surfing/video-viewing/ad-clicking free bitcoin services (however, it is not guaranteed bug free :p).


Yes. If you've seen the congratulation page on surf4bitcoin and it said you the plugin is installed, it is ok.


No registration is required. The winner will show a specific ad from us that will ask him to enter his address.


The amount of BTC each person would gain per week would be something like 0,001BTC. I think is it more interesting to chose one person each week. When a lot of people will be using the plugin, we could change to a draw per day for exemple.


This plugin only need to intercept some ad requests and redirect them to our own ads. In order to be sure the plugin is working and used, we have an ad counter on our side, but no personal information.


Not at all :p
The good thing is that it'll even remove some popups (we need to support more ad networks [the plugin is mainly used by french people for now], so don't hesitate to post links of website where you've seen a popup and we can block it)

Thank you for your question, it'll help us to improve the About page :p
Hope to see you using it soon :p




I had no time to give to namecoins those last months (spent on charityad mainly), and we still lack support from developers or anybody. Maybe there are some things that could be done to improve this ?
Now that i'm a bit more available (I started to read this forum again some weeks ago :p), i'll take so time to make things evolve a bit ( do you know a magical way to get help from people ? :p).

The time where you can get 5 bitcoins from the faucet is far away

I sent you 3xrp (if someone want to trust me, here is my address : rpUjkUUcbteWbXrPt4aXAMwzotSPzQJHQt)

If you're not interested in Surf4Bitcoin, you can still take part in our CharityAd project.
Juste visit our website and install the plugin :
http://en.charityad.org/landing-plugin

PS : only for chrome and firefox

The amount of Bitcoins you put in shared link with a neighbor should be adjusted with your trust in this neighbor.
The more you trust it over time (after hundreds of tx exchanges), the more you can increase your shared account. This will limit the number of paralyzed coins and allow to connect to several nodes when arriving in the network.

I think the current problem of "deny of service" should be solved (and as you said, the nLocktime is not enough)

As said by TierNolan, new servers should not all connect to your node when arriving in the network.

Edit (i' read a bit more the paper :p) : One thing i don't understand is how the payment is performed between node 1 & 3 ?
How to be sure node 2 will "transmit" it to node 3 ?

So, a new question : what prevents a node to generate a lot of tx and asking for rollback ? (DoS)

Hi,
you can contact me at khal at dot-bit . org

Yes, it's working (it as a beta version, may still change, so it is only present in my github tree : https://github.com/khalahan/namecoin)

Indeed, it could be a simple way to start managing bitcoin aliases.
Does the main client bitcoin client support uri schemes ?
